After Florian patches, there is no need for XT_TABLE_INFO_SZ anymore :
Only one copy of table is kept, instead of one copy per cpu.

We also can avoid a dereference if we put table data right after
xt_table_info. It reduces register pressure and helps compiler.

Then, we attempt a kmalloc() if total size is under order-3 allocation,
to reduce TLB pressure, as in many cases, rules fit in 32 KB.

We store the rule blob per (possible) cpu.  Unfortunately this means we can
waste lot of memory on big smp machines. ipt_entry structure ('rule head')
is 112 byte, so e.g. with maxcpu=64 one single rule eats
close to 8k RAM.

Since previous patch made counters percpu it appears there is nothing
left in the rule blob that needs to be percpu.

On my test system (144 possible cpus, 400k dummy rules) this
change saves close to 9 Gigabyte of RAM.

The binary arp/ip/ip6tables ruleset is stored per cpu.

The only reason left as to why we need percpu duplication are the rule
counters embedded into ipt_entry et al -- since each cpu has its own copy
of the rules, all counters can be lockless.

The downside is that the more cpus are supported, the more memory is
required.  Rules are not just duplicated per online cpu but for each
possible cpu, i.e. if maxcpu is 144, then rule is duplicated 144 times,
not for the e.g. 64 cores present.

To save some memory and also improve utilization of shared caches it
would be preferable to only store the rule blob once.

So we first need to separate counters and the rule blob.

Instead of using entry->counters, allocate this percpu and store the
percpu address in entry->counters.pcnt on CONFIG_SMP.

This change makes no sense as-is; it is merely an intermediate step to
remove the percpu duplication of the rule set in a followup patch.

Netfilter updates for net-next

The following patchset contains Netfilter updates for net-next, they are:

1) default CONFIG_NETFILTER_INGRESS to y for easier compile-testing of all
   options.

2) Allow to bind a table to net_device. This introduces the internal
   NFT_AF_NEEDS_DEV flag to perform a mandatory check for this binding.
   This is required by the next patch.

3) Add the 'netdev' table family, this new table allows you to create ingress
   filter basechains. This provides access to the existing nf_tables features
   from ingress.

4) Kill unused argument from compat_find_calc_{match,target} in ip_tables
   and ip6_tables, from Florian Westphal.

After improving setsockopt() coverage in trinity, I started triggering
vmalloc failures pretty reliably from this code path:

warn_alloc_failed+0xe9/0x140
__vmalloc_node_range+0x1be/0x270
vzalloc+0x4b/0x50
__do_replace+0x52/0x260 [ip_tables]

nf_setsockopt+0x65/0x90

raw_setsockopt+0x16/0x60
sock_common_setsockopt+0x14/0x20
SyS_setsockopt+0x71/0xd0

It turns out we don't validate that the num_counters field in the
struct we pass in from userspace is initialized.

The same problem also exists in ebtables, arptables, ipv6, and the
compat variants.

Switch the nf_tables registers from 128 bit addressing to 32 bit
addressing to support so called concatenations, where multiple values
can be concatenated over multiple registers for O(1) exact matches of
multiple dimensions using sets.

The old register values are mapped to areas of 128 bits for compatibility.
When dumping register numbers, values are expressed using the old values
if they refer to the beginning of a 128 bit area for compatibility.

To support concatenations, register loads of less than a full 32 bit
value need to be padded. This mainly affects the payload and exthdr
expressions, which both unconditionally zero the last word before
copying the data.

Userspace fully passes the testsuite using both old and new register
addressing.

Replace the array of registers passed to expressions by a struct nft_regs,
containing the verdict as a seperate member, which aliases to the
NFT_REG_VERDICT register.

This is needed to seperate the verdict from the data registers completely,
so their size can be changed.

====================
Netfilter updates for net-next

The following patchset contains Netfilter updates for your net-next tree.
They are:

* nf_tables set timeout infrastructure from Patrick Mchardy.

1) Add support for set timeout support.

2) Add support for set element timeouts using the new set extension
   infrastructure.

4) Add garbage collection helper functions to get rid of stale elements.
   Elements are accumulated in a batch that are asynchronously released
   via RCU when the batch is full.

5) Add garbage collection synchronization helpers. This introduces a new
   element busy bit to address concurrent access from the netlink API and the
   garbage collector.

5) Add timeout support for the nft_hash set implementation. The garbage
   collector peridically checks for stale elements from the workqueue.

* iptables/nftables cgroup fixes:

6) Ignore non full-socket objects from the input path, otherwise cgroup
   match may crash, from Daniel Borkmann.

7) Fix cgroup in nf_tables.

8) Save some cycles from xt_socket by skipping packet header parsing when
   skb->sk is already set because of early demux. Also from Daniel.

* br_netfilter updates from Florian Westphal.

9) Save frag_max_size and restore it from the forward path too.

10) Use a per-cpu area to restore the original source MAC address when traffic
    is DNAT'ed.

11) Add helper functions to access physical devices.

12) Use these new physdev helper function from xt_physdev.

13) Add another nf_bridge_info_get() helper function to fetch the br_netfilter
    state information.

14) Annotate original layer 2 protocol number in nf_bridge info, instead of
    using kludgy flags.

15) Also annotate the pkttype mangling when the packet travels back and forth
    from the IP to the bridge layer, instead of using a flag.

* More nf_tables set enhancement from Patrick:

16) Fix possible usage of set variant that doesn't support timeouts.

17) Avoid spurious "set is full" errors from Netlink API when there are pending
    stale elements scheduled to be released.

18) Restrict loop checks to set maps.

19) Add support for dynamic set updates from the packet path.

20) Add support to store optional user data (eg. comments) per set element.

BTW, I have also pulled net-next into nf-next to anticipate the conflict
resolution between your okfn() signature changes and Florian's br_netfilter
updates.
