    netfilter: add generic flow table infrastructure · ac2a6666
    Pablo Neira Ayuso authored
    This patch defines the API to interact with flow tables, this allows to
    add, delete and lookup for entries in the flow table. This also adds the
    generic garbage code that removes entries that have expired, ie. no
    traffic has been seen for a while.
    
    Users of the flow table infrastructure can delete entries via
    flow_offload_dead(), which sets the dying bit, this signals the garbage
    collector to release an entry from user context.
