hashsize in nf_conntrack_ipv4

hashsize in nf_conntrack_ipv4

[李伟华]

kernel version 2.6.23.9

when i load nf_conntrack_ipv4 with cmdline "modprobe ip_conntrack hashsize=10000" , 
i got a err msg 
         "FATAL: Error inserting nf_conntrack_ipv4 (/lib/modules/2.6.23.9/kernel/net/ipv4/netfilter/nf_conntrack_ipv4.ko):    
         Unknown symbol in module, or unknown parameter (see dmesg)"   , 
and endline in dmesg output 
         "nf_conntrack_ipv4: Unknown parameter `hashsize' "

so,how can i set the buckets number when i loading ip_conntrack ?

Its a parameter of nf_conntrack now. But this is actually a bug since
we wanted to stay compatible from a user perspective. Could you
try if this patch makes it work with modprobe ip_conntrack again?
