Subject: [PATCH nf,v1 2/4] netfilter: nf_conntrack_expect: store master_tuple in expectation
Date: Tue, 23 Jun 2026 07:46:33 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260623054635.335065-2-pablo@netfilter.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260623054635.335065-1-pablo@netfilter.org>

Store master conntrack tuple in the expectation since exp->master might
refer to a different conntrack when accessed from rcu read side lock
area due to typesafe rcu rules.

Fixes: 02a3231b6d82 ("netfilter: nf_conntrack_expect: store netns and zone in expectation")
