no new feature patches please

no new feature patches please

[David Miller]

We are enterring the merge window, please do not submit non-bugfix patches
until the net-next tree opens back up.

I will be just silently marking as "deferred" any submission which
violates this, because it is extremely time consuming responding to
each and every posting which violates the submission rules.

Thanks in advance for your understanding.

net-next is closed [was Re: no new feature patches please]

[Pablo Neira Ayuso]

As you probably noticed, the net-next merge window is already closed.

I had several patches in my queue though that I thought I could manage
to get them in together with some of them that were closed to be
ready, but this time I overestimate the amount of time that I had to
make it, sorry. To resolve the current situation, I'll rearrange the
current patchset in the following way:

* nf_tables patches, they will all fly to the nftables tree [1] to
  keep it simple for the nftables developers. I'll keep this tree open
  for new features meanwhile.

netfilter: nft_hash: use set global element counter instead of private one
netfilter: nf_tables: implement proper set selection
netfilter: nft_ct: split nft_ct_init() into two functions for get/set
netfilter: nft_meta: split nft_meta_init() into two functions for get/set
netfilter: nft_ct: add missing ifdef for NFT_MARK set

* Netfilter fixes:

netfilter: nf_conntrack: reserve two bytes for nf_ct_ext->len
netfilter: Add {ipt,ip6t}_osf aliases for xt_osf
netfilter: connlimit: move lock array out of struct connlimit_data
netfilter: x_tables: allow to use cgroup match for LOCAL_IN nf hooks
netfilter: connlimit: fix UP build

* For nf-next, I'll enqueue this cleanup:

netfilter: nfnetlink: simplify nfnetlink_bind
