Subject: [PATCH v2] bridge: Superfluous skb->nfct check in br_nf_dev_queue_xmit
Date: Mon, 28 Apr 2014 17:31:45 +0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <535E5841.2030802@parallels.com> (raw)

Currently bridge silently drops defragmented ipv4 packets if nf_conntrack module
is not loaded on the node. However ipv4 fragmentation and defragmentation
does not require enabled connection tracking.

Removing superfluous skb->nfct check allows to re-fragment previously
defragmented packets and give them chance to reach destination side.

v2: removed #if IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_NF_CONNTRACK_IPV4) added because
of using of nfct check
