From: Gao feng <gaofeng@cn.fujitus.com>

the struct nf_proto_net stroes proto's ctl_table_header and ctl_table,
nf_ct_l4proto_(un)register_sysctl use it to register sysctl.

there are some changes for struct nf_conntrack_l4proto:
- add field compat to identify if this proto should do compat.
- the net_id field is used to store the pernet_operations id
  that belones to l4proto.
- init_net will be used to initial the proto's pernet data

and add init_net for struct nf_conntrack_l3proto too.

This patchset looks bette but there are still things that we have to
resolve.

The first one (regarding this patch 1/17) changes in:
* include/net/netfilter/nf_conntrack_l4proto.h
* include/net/netns/conntrack.h

should be included in:
[PATCH] netfilter: add namespace support for l4proto

And changes in:
* include/net/netfilter/nf_conntrack_l3proto.h

should be included in:
[PATCH] netfilter: add namespace support for l3proto

I already told you. A patch that adds a structure without using it,
is not good. The structure has to go together with the code uses it.

More comments below.

I don't see why we need this new field.

It seems to be set to 1 in each structure that has set:

.ctl_compat_table

to non-NULL. So, it's redundant.

Moreover, you already know from the protocol tracker itself if you
have to allocate the compat ctl table or not.

In other words: You set compat to 1 for nf_conntrack_l4proto_generic.
Then, you pass that compat value to generic_init_net via ->inet_net
again, but this information (that determines if the compat has to be
done or not) is already in the scope of the protocol tracker.

You have to fix this.

It seams this patch should be merged to "netfilter: add namespace support for l4proto"
the struct nf_proto_net is first used there.

because some protocols such l4proto_tcp6 and l4proto_tcp use the same init_net
function. the l4proto_tcp6 doesn't need compat sysctl, so we should use this new
field to identify if we should kmemdup compat_sysctl_table.

and beacuse protocols will have pernet ctl_compat_table and ctl_table,the .ctl_compat_table
field will be deleted in patch 15/17. so we should the new field compat.

actually, we don't need to pass compat value for generic_init_net,beacuse
we know l4proto_generic need compat. But consider there are l4proto_tcp(6), and in order to keep
code readable,I prefer to add compat field and pass it to init_net.

Then, could you use two init_net functions? one for TCP for IPv4 and another
for TCP for IPv6?

Of cause, if you prefer to impletment it in this way.

If this removes the .compat field that you added, then use two
init_net functions, yes.

Sorry I miss something.

nf_ct_l4proto_unregister_sysctl also uses .compat to identify if we
can unregister the compat sysctl.

if we register l4proto_tcp and l4proto_tcp6 both. without .compat,
when unregister l4proto_tcp6, the compat sysctl will be unregister too.

So maybe we have to use .compat.

Could you resolve this by checking pn->ctl_compat_header != NULL ?

pn->ctl_table_header and ctl_compat_header is shared by l4proto_tcp and l4proto_tcp6.
if we both register l4proto_tcp and l4proto_tcp6, when unregister l4proto_tcp6
pn->ctl_compat_header must not be NULL.

Maybe we can resolve this by  nf_conntrack_l4proto.l3proto == AF_INET &&  pn->ctl_compat_header != NULL
Because compat sysctl is registered by AF_INET's proto only.

OK, as soon as it can remove the compat field, I prefer it.
