From 5bfddbd46a95c978f4d3c992339cbdf4f4b790a3 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Eric Dumazet Date: Tue, 8 Jun 2010 16:09:52 +0200 Subject: netfilter: nf_conntrack: IPS_UNTRACKED bit NOTRACK makes all cpus share a cache line on nf_conntrack_untracked twice per packet. This is bad for performance. __read_mostly annotation is also a bad choice. This patch introduces IPS_UNTRACKED bit so that we can use later a per_cpu untrack structure more easily. A new helper, nf_ct_untracked_get() returns a pointer to nf_conntrack_untracked. Another one, nf_ct_untracked_status_or() is used by nf_nat_init() to add IPS_NAT_DONE_MASK bits to untracked status. nf_ct_is_untracked() prototype is changed to work on a nf_conn pointer.

Timers are identified by labels and are created when a rule is set with a new label. The rules also take a timeout value (in seconds) as an option. If more than one rule uses the same timer label, the timer will be restarted whenever any of the rules get a hit. One entry for each timer is created in sysfs. This attribute contains the timer remaining for the timer to expire. The attributes are located under the xt_idletimer class: /sys/class/xt_idletimer/timers/
