[PATCH] [RFC] netfilter: nf_conntrack: don't relase a conntrack with non-zero refcnt
From: Andrey Vagin
Date: Tue Jan 14 2014 - 12:36:31 EST

Eric and Florian, could you look at this patch. When you say,
that it looks good, I will ask the user to validate it.
I can't reorder these actions, because it's reproduced on a real host
with real users. Thanks.
----
nf_conntrack_free can't be called for a conntract with non-zero ref-counter,
because it can race with nf_conntrack_find_get().
A conntrack slab is created with SLAB_DESTROY_BY_RCU. Non-zero
ref-conunter says that this conntrack is used now. So when we release a
conntrack with non-zero counter, we break this assumption.

After applying the path "[PATCH] netfilter: nf_conntrack: fix RCU race
in nf_conntrack_find_get (v3)" another bug was triggered in
destroy_conntrack():
