It should be added kfree_skb_list() when err is not equal to zero
in nf_br_ip_fragment().

v2: keep this aligned with IPv6.
v3: modify iter.frag_list to iter.frag.

<title>netfilter: allow to turn off xtables compat layer</title>

The compat layer needs to parse untrusted input (the ruleset)
to translate it to a 64bit compatible format.

We had a number of bugs in this department in the past, so allow users
to turn this feature off.

Add CONFIG_NETFILTER_XTABLES_COMPAT kconfig knob and make it default to y
to keep existing behaviour.

<title>netfilter: ebtables: remove the 3 ebtables pointers from struct net</title>

ebtables stores the table internal data (what gets passed to the
ebt_do_table() interpreter) in struct net.

nftables keeps the internal interpreter format in pernet lists
and passes it via the netfilter core infrastructure (priv pointer).

Do the same for ebtables: the nf_hook_ops are duplicated via kmemdup,
then the ops-&gt;priv pointer is set to the table that is being registered.

After that, the netfilter core passes this table info to the hookfn.

This allows to remove the pointers from struct net.

Same pattern can be applied to ip/ip6/arptables.

<title>netfilter: bridge: add pre_exit hooks for ebtable unregistration</title>

<content type='text'>
Just like ip/ip6/arptables, the hooks have to be removed, then
synchronize_rcu() has to be called to make sure no more packets are being
processed before the ruleset data is released.

Place the hook unregistration in the pre_exit hook, then call the new
ebtables pre_exit function from there.

Years ago, when first netns support got added for netfilter+ebtables,
this used an older (now removed) netfilter hook unregister API, that did
a unconditional synchronize_rcu().

Now that all is done with call_rcu, ebtable_{filter,nat,broute} pernet exit
handlers may free the ebtable ruleset while packets are still in flight.

This can only happens on module removal, not during netns exit.

The new function expects the table name, not the table struct.

This is because upcoming patch set (targeting -next) will remove all
net-&gt;xt.{nat,filter,broute}_table instances, this makes it necessary
to avoid external references to those member variables.

The existing APIs will be converted, so follow the upcoming scheme of
passing name + hook type instead.

ebtables currently uses net-&gt;xt.tables[BRIDGE], but upcoming
patch will move net-&gt;xt.tables away from struct net.

To avoid exposing x_tables internals to ebtables, use a private list
instead.

Provide bridge log support from nf_log_syslog.

After the merge there is no need to load the "real packet loggers",
all of them now reside in the same module.

This new function combines the netlink register attribute parser
and the store validation function.

This update requires to replace:

        enum nft_registers      dreg:8;

in many of the expression private areas otherwise compiler complains
with:

        error: cannot take address of bit-field ‘dreg’

when passing the register field as reference.

Bridge family is using the same static init and dump function as inet.

This patch removes duplicate code unifying these functions body into
nft_reject.c so they can be reused in the rest of families supporting
reject verdict.
