Keep the conntrack reference until policy checks have been performed for
IPsec V6 NAT support. The reference needs to be dropped before a packet is
queued to avoid having the conntrack module unloadable.

nf_reset() is gone since commit 895b5c9f206e ("netfilter: drop bridge
nf reset from nf_reset"), you should use instead nf_reset_ct(): in the
current form the patch does not apply cleanly (nor build after manual
edit).
Cheers,
Paolo
Hi Paolo,
I updated the patch with nf_reset_ct change (nf_reset() replaced with nf_reset_ct) to align with the latest kernel code.
Hi All,
I also want to push this change (with nf_reset) in 4.19 LTS kernel, please can you tell me how can I push to that version? Thanks in advance.
Hi Florian,
In patchv3 updated the subject line as you suggested.
Thanks & Regards,
Madhu K

Hi Florian/Paolo,
As Florian suggested I changed the subject title, due to this patch is pushed in different link. Please find the nf_reset_ct changes patch in the below link
https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20230303094221.1501961-1-madhu.koriginja@nxp.com/T/
Please can you also suggest me how to push patch on 4.19 LTS kernel.
Thanks & Regards,
Madhu K

Subject Line should be: [PATCH net] net: netfilter: Keep conntrack reference until IPsecv6 policy checks are done or [PATCH net-next] net: netfilter: Keep .. see below why net-next makes more sense to me. > Signed-off-by: Madhu Koriginja <madhu.koriginja@nxp.com> > V1-V2: added missing () in ip6_input.c in below condition > if (!(ipprot->flags & INET6_PROTO_NOPOLICY)) This should appear before your signed-off-by, or > --- > net/dccp/ipv6.c | 1 + ... here. I think its fine to place it here because in this case the mini-changelog doesn't provide any additional context worth keeping in git. Paolo, Jakub, David: This is a bug, but its not a regression either. I would suggest that Madhu resubmits this AFTER net-next re-opens. Madhu, if thats the agreed-upon procedure, you may include Reviewed-by: Florian Westphal <fw@strlen.de> when you resend this patch as-is.
