no more users in the tree, remove this. The old api is racy wrt. module removal, all users have been converted to the netns-aware api. The old api pretended we still have global hooks but that has not been true for a long time. Signed-off-by: Florian Westphal <fw@strlen.de> Signed-off-by: Pablo Neira Ayuso <pablo@netfilter.org>
During nfhook traversal we only need a very small subset of nf_hook_ops members. We need: - next element - hook function to call - hook function priv argument Bridge netfilter also needs 'thresh'; can be obtained via ->orig_ops. nf_hook_entry struct is now 32 bytes on x86_64. A followup patch will turn the run-time list into an array that only stores hook functions plus their priv arguments, eliminating the ->next element.

This field is only useful for nf_queue, so store it in the
nf_queue_entry structure instead, away from the core path. Pass
hook_head to nf_hook_slow().
Since we always have a valid entry on the first iteration in
nf_iterate(), we can use 'do { ... } while (entry)' loop instead.

Patch c5136b15ea36 ("netfilter: bridge: add and use br_nf_hook_thresh")
introduced br_nf_hook_thresh().
Replace NF_HOOK_THRESH() by br_nf_hook_thresh from
br_nf_forward_finish(), so we have no more callers for this macro.
As a result, state->thresh and explicit thresh parameter in the hook
state structure is not required anymore. And we can get rid of
skip-hook-under-thresh loop in nf_iterate() in the core path that is
only used by br_netfilter to search for the filter hook.

The netfilter hook list never uses the prev pointer, and so can be trimmed to be a simple singly-linked list. In addition to having a more light weight structure for hook traversal, struct net becomes 5568 bytes (down from 6400) and struct net_device becomes 2176 bytes (down from 2240).

This makes things simpler because we can store the head of the list in the nf_state structure without worrying about concurrent add/delete of hook elements from the list. A future commit will make use of this to implement a simpler linked-list.

With the previous patches in place, a netns nf_hook_list might be empty, even if e.g. init_net performs filtering. Thus change nf_hook_thresh to check the hook_list as well before initializing hook_state and calling nf_hook_slow(). We still make use of static keys; if no netfilter modules are loaded list is guaranteed to be empty.
