Subject: Re: [PATCH 2/3] NETFILTER module xt_hmark, new target for HASH
 based fwmark

Hi Hans,

This starts looking good :-). Some comments on your patch:

I've got one scenario that may break with this assumption:

1) your traffic follows one path over router A and B to reach your
   firewall F which requires no fragmentation at all.
2) path to router B becomes broken while there are established flows
   with firewall F.
3) router A decides to forward packets to router C, which fragment
   packets because it is using smaller MTU than router A.
4) packets arrive to firewall F, then hashing is calculated based on
   addresses, not ports, and you load-sharing becomes inconsistent.

This can rarely happen, but it does, it would break.

To fix this, I think that HMARK requires that you have to specify the
hashing strategy. If you want to support fragments, use only
addresses. If you're sure you will not get fragments, use layer 3 and
layer 4 information.

Please, remove these comments:

1) These functions are static, they provide no API for other users.
2) By reading the code, you can notice what it does. It's redundant.

Interesting, by quick search, I don't find this structure defined

why this? check in user-space that libxt_HMARK does not send this to
kernel-space and check it again in checkentry().
