Subject: [ 10/30] netfilter: dont reset nf_trace in nf_reset()
Date: Mon, 29 Apr 2013 12:02:34 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20130429184356.447626221@linuxfoundation.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20130429184355.299556377@linuxfoundation.org>

3.0-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------


From: Patrick McHardy <kaber@trash.net>

[ Upstream commit 124dff01afbdbff251f0385beca84ba1b9adda68 ]

Commit 130549fe ("netfilter: reset nf_trace in nf_reset") added code
to reset nf_trace in nf_reset(). This is wrong and unnecessary.

nf_reset() is used in the following cases:

- when passing packets up the the socket layer, at which point we want to
  release all netfilter references that might keep modules pinned while
  the packet is queued. nf_trace doesn't matter anymore at this point.

- when encapsulating or decapsulating IPsec packets. We want to continue
  tracing these packets after IPsec processing.

- when passing packets through virtual network devices. Only devices on
  that encapsulate in IPv4/v6 matter since otherwise nf_trace is not
  used anymore. Its not entirely clear whether those packets should
  be traced after that, however we've always done that.

- when passing packets through virtual network devices that make the
  packet cross network namespace boundaries. This is the only cases
  where we clearly want to reset nf_trace and is also what the
  original patch intended to fix.

Add a new function nf_reset_trace() and use it in dev_forward_skb() to
fix this properly.
