netfilter: move nat hlist_head to nf_conn
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
The nat extension structure is 32bytes in size on x86_64:

struct nf_conn_nat {
        struct hlist_node          bysource;             /*     0    16 */
        struct nf_conn *           ct;                   /*    16     8 */
        union nf_conntrack_nat_help help;                /*    24     4 */
        int                        masq_index;           /*    28     4 */
        /* size: 32, cachelines: 1, members: 4 */
        /* last cacheline: 32 bytes */
};

The hlist is needed to quickly check for possible tuple collisions
when installing a new nat binding. Storing this in the extension
area has two drawbacks:

1. We need ct backpointer to get the conntrack struct from the extension.
2. When reallocation of extension area occurs we need to fixup the bysource
   hash head via hlist_replace_rcu.

We can avoid both by placing the hlist_head in nf_conn and place nf_conn in
the bysource hash rather than the extenstion.

We can also remove the ->move support; no other extension needs it.

Moving the entire nat extension into nf_conn would be possible as well but
then we have to add yet another callback for deletion from the bysource
hash table rather than just using nat extension ->destroy hook for this.

nf_conn size doesn't increase due to aligment, followup patch replaces
hlist_node with single pointer.
