Subject: [PATCH] netfilter: conntrack: don't deliver events for racy packets
Date: Wed, 25 Feb 2009 03:53:34 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20090225025334.4646.98606.stgit@Decadence> (raw)

This patch skips the delivery of conntrack events if the packet
was drop due to a race condition in the conntrack insertion.
