Subject: [PATCH] netfilter: nf_queue: Replace conntrack entry
SKBs are assigned a conntrack entry before being passed to any NFQUEUEs,
and if no entry is found then a new one is created. This behavior causes
problems for some traffic patterns. For example, if two UDP packets
to/from the same host (using the same ports) arrive at the "same" time,
both are assigned a new conntrack entry. After the first packet have
traversed all chains, the conntrack entry will be inserted into the
global table. The second packet will then be dropped during the
insertion step, as an entry for the same flow already exists. One type
of application that frequently generates this traffic pattern, is DNS
resolvers.
This commit introduces a new function that checks, and potentially
replaces, the conntrack entry for any additional "new" SKBs mapping to
an existing flow. While not a perfect solution, there are still
situations where to-be-dropped SKBs can slip through, the situations is
improved considerably. On the routers I have used for testing, packets
belonging to the same UDP flow are let through (when generating the
traffic pattern described above). Without the change in this commit, all
packets except the first one was dropped.
With the change in this commit, a user can implement "perfect" solutions
in user-space. An application can for example keep track of seen UDP
flows, and then only release packets belonging to one flow when the
entry has been created. Without the change, and SKB is stuck with the
original conntrack entry.
