====================
Netfilter updates for net-next
The following patchset contains Netfilter updates for your net-next tree.
Basically, nf_tables updates to add the set extension infrastructure and finish
the transaction for sets from Patrick McHardy. More specifically, they are:
1) Move netns to basechain and use recently added possible_net_t, from
Patrick McHardy.
2) Use LOGLEVEL_<FOO> from nf_log infrastructure, from Joe Perches.
3) Restore nf_log_trace that was accidentally removed during conflict
resolution.
4) nft_queue does not depend on NETFILTER_XTABLES, starting from here
all patches from Patrick McHardy.
5) Use raw_smp_processor_id() in nft_meta.
Then, several patches to prepare ground for the new set extension
infrastructure:
6) Pass object length to the hash callback in rhashtable as needed by
the new set extension infrastructure.
7) Cleanup patch to restore struct nft_hash as wrapper for struct
rhashtable
8) Another small source code readability cleanup for nft_hash.
9) Convert nft_hash to rhashtable callbacks.
And finally...
10) Add the new set extension infrastructure.
11) Convert the nft_hash and nft_rbtree sets to use it.
12) Batch set element release to avoid several RCU grace period in a row
and add new function nft_set_elem_destroy() to consolidate set element
release.
13) Return the set extension data area from nft_lookup.
14) Refactor existing transaction code to add some helper functions
and document it.
15) Complete the set transaction support, using similar approach to what we
already use, to activate/deactivate elements in an atomic fashion.
