====================
Netfilter/IPVS/OVS fixes for net
The following patchset contains a rather large batch of Netfilter, IPVS
and OVS fixes for your net tree. This includes fixes for ctnetlink, the
userspace conntrack helper infrastructure, conntrack OVS support,
ebtables DNAT target, several leaks in error path among other. More
specifically, they are:
1) Fix reference count leak in the CT target error path, from Gao Feng.
2) Remove conntrack entry clashing with a matching expectation, patch
from Jarno Rajahalme.
3) Fix bogus EEXIST when registering two different userspace helpers,
from Liping Zhang.
4) Don't leak dummy elements in the new bitmap set type in nf_tables,
from Liping Zhang.
5) Get rid of module autoload from conntrack update path in ctnetlink,
we don't need autoload at this late stage and it is happening with
rcu read lock held which is not good. From Liping Zhang.
6) Fix deadlock due to double-acquire of the expect_lock from conntrack
update path, this fixes a bug that was introduced when the central
spinlock got removed. Again from Liping Zhang.
7) Safe ct->status update from ctnetlink path, from Liping. The expect_lock
protection that was selected when the central spinlock was removed was
not really protecting anything at all.
8) Protect sequence adjustment under ct->lock.
9) Missing socket match with IPv6, from Peter Tirsek.
10) Adjust skb->pkt_type of DNAT'ed frames from ebtables, from
Linus Luessing.
11) Don't give up on evaluating the expression on new entries added via
dynset expression in nf_tables, from Liping Zhang.
12) Use skb_checksum() when mangling icmpv6 in IPv6 NAT as this deals
with non-linear skbuffs.
13) Don't allow IPv6 service in IPVS if no IPv6 support is available,
from Paolo Abeni.
14) Missing mutex release in error path of xt_find_table_lock(), from
Dan Carpenter.
15) Update maintainers files, Netfilter section. Add Florian to the
file, refer to nftables.org and change project status from Supported
to Maintained.
16) Bail out on mismatching extensions in element updates in nf_tables.
