<title>netfilter: conntrack: don't fold port numbers into addresses before hashing</title>

Originally this used jhash2() over tuple and folded the zone id,
the pernet hash value, destination port and l4 protocol number into the
32bit seed value.

When the switch to siphash was done, I used an on-stack temporary
buffer to build a suitable key to be hashed via siphash().

But this showed up as performance regression, so I got rid of
the temporary copy and collected to-be-hashed data in 4 u64 variables.

This makes it easy to build tuples that produce the same hash, which isn't
desirable even though chain lengths are limited.

Switch back to plain siphash, but just like with jhash2(), take advantage
of the fact that most of to-be-hashed data is already in a suitable order.

Use an empty struct as annotation in 'struct nf_conntrack_tuple' to mark
last member that can be used as hash input.

The only remaining data that isn't present in the tuple structure are the
zone identifier and the pernet hash: fold those into the key.

Overflow use refcount checks are not complete.

Add helper function to deal with object reference counter tracking.
Report -EMFILE in case UINT_MAX is reached.

nft_use_dec() splats in case that reference counter underflows,
which should not ever happen.

Add nft_use_inc_restore() and nft_use_dec_restore() which are used
to restore reference counter from error and abort paths.

Use u32 in nft_flowtable and nft_object since helper functions cannot
work on bitfields.

Remove the few early incomplete checks now that the helper functions
are in place and used to check for refcount overflow.

====================
Netfilter/IPVS updates for net-next

1) Allow slightly larger IPVS connection table size from Kconfig for
   64-bit arch, from Abhijeet Rastogi.

2) Since IPVS connection table might be larger than 2^20 after previous
   patch, allow to limit it depending on the available memory.
   Moreover, use kvmalloc. From Julian Anastasov.

3) Do not rebuild VLAN header in nft_payload when matching source and
   destination MAC address.

4) Remove nested rcu read lock side in ip_set_test(), from Florian Westphal.

5) Allow to update set size, also from Florian.

6) Improve NAT tuple selection when connection is closing,
   from Florian Westphal.

7) Support for resetting set element stateful expression, from Phil Sutter.

8) Use NLA_POLICY_MAX to narrow down maximum attribute value in nf_tables,
   from Florian Westphal.

set .destroy callback releases the references to other objects in maps.
This is very late and it results in spurious EBUSY errors. Drop refcount
from the preparation phase instead, update set backend not to drop
reference counter from set .destroy path.

Exceptions: NFT_TRANS_PREPARE_ERROR does not require to drop the
reference counter because the transaction abort path releases the map
references for each element since the set is unbound. The abort path
also deals with releasing reference counter for new elements added to
unbound sets.

Add bound flag to rule and chain transactions as in 6a0a8d10a366
("netfilter: nf_tables: use-after-free in failing rule with bound set")
to skip them in case that the chain is already bound from the abort
path.

This patch fixes an imbalance in the chain use refcnt that triggers a
WARN_ON on the table and chain destroy path.

This patch also disallows nested chain bindings, which is not
supported from userspace.

The logic to deal with chain binding in nft_data_hold() and
nft_data_release() is not correct. The NFT_TRANS_PREPARE state needs a
special handling in case a chain is bound but next expressions in the
same rule fail to initialize as described by 1240eb93f061 ("netfilter:
nf_tables: incorrect error path handling with NFT_MSG_NEWRULE").

The chain is left bound if rule construction fails, so the objects
stored in this chain (and the chain itself) are released by the
transaction records from the abort path, follow up patch ("netfilter:
nf_tables: add NFT_TRANS_PREPARE_ERROR to deal with bound set/chain")
completes this error handling.

When deleting an existing rule, chain bound flag is set off so the
rule expression .destroy path releases the objects.
