Subject: [PATCH net-next 12/26] netfilter: conntrack: make nf_conntrack_id callable without a module dependency
Date: Fri, 23 May 2025 15:26:58 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250523132712.458507-13-pablo@netfilter.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20250523132712.458507-1-pablo@netfilter.org>
From: Florian Westphal <fw@strlen.de>
While nf_conntrack_id() doesn't need any functionaliy from conntrack, it
does reside in nf_conntrack_core.c -- callers add a module
dependency on conntrack.
Followup patch will need to compute the conntrack id from nf_tables_trace.c
to include it in nf_trace messages emitted to userspace via netlink.
I don't want to introduce a module dependency between nf_tables and
conntrack for this.
Since trace is slowpath, the added indirection is ok.
One alternative is to move nf_conntrack_id to the netfilter/core.c,
but I don't see a compelling reason so far.
