Subject: [PATCH 6/6] netfilter: nf_conntrack: fix early_drop with reliable event delivery
Date: Tue,  6 Mar 2012 12:22:55 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1331032975-5303-7-git-send-email-pablo@netfilter.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1331032975-5303-1-git-send-email-pablo@netfilter.org>

From: Pablo Neira Ayuso <pablo@netfilter.org>

If reliable event delivery is enabled and ctnetlink fails to deliver
the destroy event in early_drop, the conntrack subsystem cannot
drop any the candidate flow that was planned to be evicted.
