Netfilter/IPVS fixes for net
The following patchset contains Netfilter updates for your net tree,
they are:
1) Fix missing initialization of the range structure (allocated in the
stack) in nft_masq_{ipv4, ipv6}_eval, from Daniel Borkmann.
2) Make sure the data we receive from userspace contains the req_version
structure, otherwise return an error incomplete on truncated input.
From Dan Carpenter.
3) Fix handling og skb->sk which may cause incorrect handling
of connections from a local process. Via Simon Horman, patch from
Calvin Owens.
4) Fix wrong netns in nft_compat when setting target and match params
structure.
5) Relax chain type validation in nft_compat that was recently included,
this broke the matches that need to be run from the route chain type.
Now iptables-test.py automated regression tests report success again
and we avoid the only possible problematic case, which is the use of
nat targets out of nat chain type.
6) Use match->table to validate the tablename, instead of the match->name.
Again patch for nft_compat.
7) Restore the synchronous release of objects from the commit and abort
path in nf_tables. This is causing two major problems: splats when using
nft_compat, given that matches and targets may sleep and call_rcu is
invoked from softirq context. Moreover Patrick reported possible event
notification reordering when rules refer to anonymous sets.
8) Fix race condition in between packets that are being confirmed by
conntrack and the ctnetlink flush operation. This happens since the
removal of the central spinlock. Thanks to Jesper D. Brouer to looking
into this.
