Pablo Neira Ayuso says: ==================== Netfilter updates for net-next A small batch with accumulated updates in nf-next, mostly IPVS updates, they are: 1) Add 64-bits stats counters to IPVS, from Julian Anastasov. 2) Move NETFILTER_XT_MATCH_ADDRTYPE out of NETFILTER_ADVANCED as docker seem to require this, from Anton Blanchard. 3) Use boolean instead of numeric value in set_match_v*(), from coccinelle via Fengguang Wu. 4) Allows rescheduling of new connections in IPVS when port reuse is detected, from Marcelo Ricardo Leitner. 5) Add missing bits to support arptables extensions from nft_compat, from Arturo Borrero. Patrick is preparing a large batch to enhance the set infrastructure, named expressions among other things, that should follow up soon after this batch. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S.

+ 0: disable any special handling on port reuse. The new

+ bit 1: enable rescheduling of new connections when it is safe.
+ That is, whenever expire_nodest_conn and for TCP sockets, when
+ the connection is in TIME_WAIT state (which is only possible if
+ you use NAT mode).
+
+ bit 2: it is bit 1 plus, for TCP connections, when connections
+ are in FIN_WAIT state, as this is the last state seen by load
+ balancer in Direct Routing mode. This bit helps on adding new
+ real servers to a very busy cluster.
