      ipvs: make rerouting optional with snat_reroute · 8a803040
      Julian Anastasov authored
      	Add new sysctl flag "snat_reroute". Recent kernels use
      ip_route_me_harder() to route LVS-NAT responses properly by
      VIP when there are multiple paths to client. But setups
      that do not have alternative default routes can skip this
      routing lookup by using snat_reroute=0.

      ipvs: netfilter connection tracking changes · f4bc17cd
      Julian Anastasov authored
      	Add more code to IPVS to work with Netfilter connection
      tracking and fix some problems.
      
      - Allow IPVS to be compiled without connection tracking as in
      2.6.35 and before. This can avoid keeping conntracks for all
      IPVS connections because this costs memory. ip_vs_ftp still
      depends on connection tracking and NAT as implemented for 2.6.36.
      
      - Add sysctl var "conntrack" to enable connection tracking for
      all IPVS connections. For loaded IPVS directors it needs
      tuning of nf_conntrack_max limit.
      
      - Add IP_VS_CONN_F_NFCT connection flag to request the connection
      to use connection tracking. This allows user space to provide this
      flag, for example, in dest->conn_flags. This can be useful to
      request connection tracking per real server instead of forcing it
      for all connections with the "conntrack" sysctl. This flag is
      set currently only by ip_vs_ftp and of course by "conntrack" sysctl.
      
      - Add ip_vs_nfct.c file to hold all connection tracking code,
      by this way main code should not depend of netfilter conntrack
      support.
      
      - Return back the ip_vs_post_routing handler as in 2.6.35 and use
      skb->ipvs_property=1 to allow IPVS to work without connection
      tracking
      
      Connection tracking:
      
      - most of the code is already in 2.6.36-rc
      
      - alter conntrack reply tuple for LVS-NAT connections when first packet
      from client is forwarded and conntrack state is NEW or RELATED.
      Additionally, alter reply for RELATED connections from real server,
      again for packet in original direction.
      
      - add IP_VS_XMIT_TUNNEL to confirm conntrack (without altering
      reply) for LVS-TUN early because we want to call nf_reset. It is
      needed because we add IPIP header and the original conntrack
      should be preserved, not destroyed. The transmitted IPIP packets
      can reuse same conntrack, so we do not set skb->ipvs_property.
      
      - try to destroy conntrack when the IPVS connection is destroyed.
      It is not fatal if conntrack disappears before that, it depends
      on the used timers.
      
      Fix problems from long time:
      
      - add skb->ip_summed = CHECKSUM_NONE for the LVS-TUN transmitters
