Netfilter updates for net-next

The following patchset contains Netfilter updates for your net-next
tree. Basically, updates to the conntrack core, enhancements for
nf_tables, conversion of netfilter hooks from linked list to array to
improve memory locality and asorted improvements for the Netfilter

1) Add expection to hashes after timer initialization to prevent
   access from another CPU that walks on the hashes and calls
   del_timer(), from Florian Westphal.

2) Don't update nf_tables chain counters from hot path, this is only

netfilter: convert hook list to an array 2017-08-28T15:44:00+00:00 Aaron Conole aconole@bytheb.org 2017-08-23T22:08:32+00:00 960632ece6949be1ab6f7a911faa4fa6e8305f4a This converts the storage and layout of netfilter hook entries from a linked list to an array. After this commit, hook entries will be stored adjacent in memory. The next pointer is no longer required. The ops pointers are stored at the end of the array as they are only used in the register/unregister path and in the legacy br_netfilter code. nf_unregister_net_hooks() is slower than needed as it just calls nf_unregister_net_hook in a loop (i.e. at least n synchronize_net() calls), this will be addressed in followup patch.

net: core: Make the FIB notification chain generic 2017-08-03T22:35:59+00:00 Ido Schimmel idosch@mellanox.com 2017-08-03T11:28:11+00:00 04b1d4e50e82536c12da00ee04a77510c459c844 The FIB notification chain is currently soley used by IPv4 code. However, we're going to introduce IPv6 FIB offload support, which requires these notification as well. As explained in commit c3852ef7f2f8 ("ipv4: fib: Replay events when registering FIB notifier"), upon registration to the chain, the callee receives a full dump of the FIB tables and rules by traversing all the net namespaces. The integrity of the dump is ensured by a per-namespace sequence counter that is incremented whenever a change to the tables or rules occurs. In order to allow more address families to use the chain, each family is expected to register its fib_notifier_ops in its pernet init. These operations allow the common code to read the family's sequence counter as well as dump its tables and rules in the given net namespace. Additionally, a 'family' parameter is added to sent notifications, so that listeners could distinguish between the different families. Implement the common code that allows listeners to register to the chain and for address families to register their fib_notifier_ops. Subsequent patches will implement these operations in IPv6. In the future, ipmr and ip6mr will be extended to provide these notifications as well.

The FIB notification chain is currently soley used by IPv4 code.
However, we're going to introduce IPv6 FIB offload support, which
requires these notification as well.

As explained in commit c3852ef7f2f8 ("ipv4: fib: Replay events when
registering FIB notifier"), upon registration to the chain, the callee
receives a full dump of the FIB tables and rules by traversing all the
net namespaces. The integrity of the dump is ensured by a per-namespace
sequence counter that is incremented whenever a change to the tables or
rules occurs.

In order to allow more address families to use the chain, each family is
expected to register its fib_notifier_ops in its pernet init. These
operations allow the common code to read the family's sequence counter
as well as dump its tables and rules in the given net namespace.

Additionally, a 'family' parameter is added to sent notifications, so
that listeners could distinguish between the different families.

Implement the common code that allows listeners to register to the chain
and for address families to register their fib_notifier_ops. Subsequent
patches will implement these operations in IPv6.

In the future, ipmr and ip6mr will be extended to provide these
notifications as well.

See next patch for some numbers. A followup patcg could then also remove genid from the policies as we do not cache bundles anymore.
