Subject: [PATCH net-next 08/11] netfilter: flowtable: check namespace before iterating flows
Date: Mon, 28 Sep 2026 00:34:33 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260927223436.269024-9-pablo@netfilter.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260927223436.269024-1-pablo@netfilter.org>

From: Qingfang Deng <qingfang.deng@linux.dev>

nf_flow_table_cleanup() walks every registered flow table, checking the
network namespace for each flow in nf_flow_table_do_cleanup(). As a
result, tables in other namespaces are still iterated and their cleanup
work is flushed.

Compare the flow table's namespace with the device's namespace in
nf_flow_table_cleanup() and skip nonmatching tables. This avoids
unnecessary iteration and work flushing, and leaves the per-flow cleanup
callback to check only the interface index.
