The root4 variable is used only when connlimit extension module has been
stored by the iptables command. and the roo6 variable is used only when
connlimit extension module has been stored by the ip6tables command.
So the root4 and roo6 variable does not be used at the same time.

When a nf_conntrack_l3/4proto parameter is not on the left hand side
of an assignment, its address is not taken, and it is not passed to a
function that may modify its fields, then it can be declared as const.
This change is useful from a documentation point of view, and can
possibly facilitate making some nf_conntrack_l3/4proto structures const
subsequently.

Discussion during NFWS 2017 in Faro has shown that the current
conntrack behaviour is unreasonable.
Even if conntrack module is loaded on behalf of a single net namespace,
its turned on for all namespaces, which is expensive. Commit
481fa37347 ("netfilter: conntrack: add nf_conntrack_default_on sysctl")
attempted to provide an alternative to the 'default on' behaviour by
adding a sysctl to change it.
However, as Eric points out, the sysctl only becomes available
once the module is loaded, and then its too late.
So we either have to move the sysctl to the core, or, alternatively,
change conntrack to become active only once the rule set requires this.
This does the latter, conntrack is only enabled when a rule needs it.

switch to lockless lockup. write side now also increments sequence
counter. On lookup, sample counter value and only take the lock
if we did not find a match and the counter has changed.
This avoids need to write to private area in normal (lookup) cases.
In case we detect a writer (seqretry is true) we fall back to taking
the readlock.
The readlock is also used during dumps to ensure we get a consistent
tree walk.
Similar technique (rbtree+seqlock) was used by David Howells in rxrpc.

nft_trace_notify() is called only from __nft_trace_packet(), which
assigns its parameter 'chain' to info->chain. __nft_trace_packet() in
turn later dereferences 'chain' unconditionally, which indicates that
it's never NULL. Same does nft_do_chain(), the only user of the tracing
infrastructure. Hence it is safe to assume the check removed here is not
needed.

When skb is queued to userspace it leaves softirq/rcu protection.
skb->nfct (via conntrack extensions such as helper) could then reference
modules that no longer exist if the conntrack was not yet confirmed.
nf_ct_iterate_destroy() will set the DYING bit for unconfirmed
conntracks, we therefore solve this race as follows:
1. take the queue spinlock.
2. check if the conntrack is unconfirmed and has dying bit set.
In this case, we must discard skb while we're still inside
rcu read-side section.
3. If nf_ct_iterate_destroy() is called right after the packet is queued
to userspace, it will be removed from the queue via
nf_ct_iterate_destroy -> nf_queue_nf_hook_drop.
When userspace sends the verdict (nfnetlink takes rcu read lock), there
are two cases to consider:
1. nf_ct_iterate_destroy() was called while packet was out.
In this case, skb will have been removed from the queue already
and no reinject takes place as we won't find a matching entry for the
packet id.
2. nf_ct_iterate_destroy() gets called right after verdict callback
found and removed the skb from queue list.
In this case, skb->nfct is marked as dying but it is still valid.
The skb will be dropped either in nf_conntrack_confirm (we don't
insert DYING conntracks into hash table) or when we try to queue
the skb again, but either events don't occur before the rcu read lock
is dropped.

queued skbs might be using conntrack extensions that are being removed,
such as timeout. This happens for skbs that have a skb->nfct in
unconfirmed state (i.e., not in hash table yet).
This is destructive, but there are only two use cases:
- module removal (rare)
- netns cleanup (most likely no conntracks exist, and if they do,
they are removed anyway later on).

Add fib expression support for netdev family. Like inet family, netdev
delegates the actual decision to the corresponding backend, either ipv4
or ipv6.
This allows to perform very early reverse path filtering, among other
things.

This is a preparatory patch for adding fib support to the netdev family.
The netdev family receives the packets from ingress hook. At this point
we have no guarantee that the ip header is linear. So this patch
replaces ip_hdr with skb_header_pointer in order to address that
possible situation.

This patch removes duplicate rcu_read_lock().
1. IPVS part:
According to Julian Anastasov's mention, contexts of ipvs are described
at: http://marc.info/?l=netfilter-devel&m=149562884514072&w=2, in summary:
- packet RX/TX: does not need locks because packets come from hooks.
- sync msg RX: backup server uses RCU locks while registering new
connections.
- ip_vs_ctl.c: configuration get/set, RCU locks needed.
- xt_ipvs.c: It is a netfilter match, running from hook context.
As result, rcu_read_lock and rcu_read_unlock can be removed from:
- ip_vs_core.c: all
- ip_vs_ctl.c:
- only from ip_vs_has_real_service
- ip_vs_ftp.c: all
- ip_vs_proto_sctp.c: all
- ip_vs_proto_tcp.c: all
- ip_vs_proto_udp.c: all
- ip_vs_xmit.c: all (contains only packet processing)
2. Netfilter part:
There are three types of functions that are guaranteed the rcu_read_lock().
First, as result, functions are only called by nf_hook():
- nf_conntrack_broadcast_help(), pptp_expectfn(), set_expected_rtp_rtcp().
- tcpmss_reverse_mtu(), tproxy_laddr4(), tproxy_laddr6().
- match_lookup_rt6(), check_hlist(), hashlimit_mt_common().
- xt_osf_match_packet().
Second, functions that caller already held the rcu_read_lock().
- destroy_conntrack(), ctnetlink_conntrack_event().
- ctnl_timeout_find_get(), nfqnl_nf_hook_drop().
Third, functions that are mixed with type1 and type2.
These functions are called by nf_hook() also these are called by
ordinary functions that already held the rcu_read_lock():
- __ctnetlink_glue_build(), ctnetlink_expect_event().
- ctnetlink_proto_size().
Applied files are below:
- nf_conntrack_broadcast.c, nf_conntrack_core.c, nf_conntrack_netlink.c.
- nf_conntrack_pptp.c, nf_conntrack_sip.c, nfnetlink_cttimeout.c.
- nfnetlink_queue.c, xt_TCPMSS.c, xt_TPROXY.c, xt_addrtype.c.
- xt_connlimit.c, xt_hashlimit.c, xt_osf.c
