Subject: [PATCH net 03/13] netfilter: nf_conntrack_expect: add and use nf_ct_expect_related_pair()
Date: Thu, 23 Jul 2026 18:39:00 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260723163910.274695-4-pablo@netfilter.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260723163910.274695-1-pablo@netfilter.org>

Add a new function to insert a pair of expectations, this is required by
the SIP and H323 NAT helpers. The spinlock is held to check if there is
a slot for both expectations, in such case, insert them.

This removes the need for nf_ct_unexpect_related() inside the loop to
find a pair of consecutive ports, otherwise inserting expectations whose
dead flag is already set on can happen.

Bump master_help->expecting for the expectation class after checking if
the expectation fits in the master expectation list, which is needed for
this new _pair() function variant to run the eviction routine including
the preallocated slot for the first expectation in the pair.

Fixes: b8b09dc2bf35 ("netfilter: nf_conntrack_expect: use conntrack GC to reap expectations")
