Hello,

Using 5.15.0-1019-bluefield, conntrack -F properly flushes the tuples.

Thanks,

Title:
  netfilter: ctnetlink: Support offloaded conntrack entry deletion

Status in linux-bluefield package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid
Status in linux-bluefield source package in Focal:
  Fix Released
Status in linux-bluefield source package in Jammy:
  Fix Committed

Bug description:
  * Explain the bug(s)
   
  conntrack -D or conntrack -F doesn't delete offloaded tuples.
   
  * brief explanation of fixes
   
  Add support for to delete offloaded tuples via netlink interface and
  userspace conntrack utility.
   
  * How to test
   
  Create OVS bridge with 2 devices mlx5 rep devices.

  Enable HW offload and configure regular connection tracking OpenFlow
  rules:


  e.g:

      ovs-ofctl del-flows br-ovs

      ovs-ofctl add-flow br-ovs arp,actions=normal

      ovs-ofctl add-flow br-ovs "table=0, ip,ct_state=-trk
  actions=ct(table=1)"

      ovs-ofctl add-flow br-ovs "table=1, ip,ct_state=+trk+new
  actions=ct(commit),normal"

      ovs-ofctl add-flow br-ovs "table=1, ip,ct_state=+trk+est,
  actions=normal"


  Run a UDP connection, e.g:
  on mlx5 VF1 iperf -s -u
  on mlx5 VF2 iperf -c <ip> -u -t 10 
   

  Optional: In different terminal, while traffic is running, check for
  offload:

  tcpdump -nnepi <RELEVANT_MLX5_REP> udp
  and see no iperf udp packets.
   

  Dump conntrack with relevant ip:

  cat /proc/net/nf_conntrack | grep -i <ip>
   

  See tuples were offloaded:
  ipv4     2 udp 17 src=1.1.1.2 dst=1.1.1.3 sport=56394 dport=5001 packets=2 
bytes=112 src=1.1.1.3 dst=1.1.1.2 sport=5001 dport=56394 packets=1777 
bytes=665340 [HW_OFFLOAD] mark=0 zone=0 use=3
   
  Flush the tuples:
  conntrack -F
   
  Verify tuples are deleted:
  cat /proc/net/nf_conntrack | grep -i <ip>


  Before fix, the above tuple shows again,

  after fix, it's deleted, and shows nothing.

   
  * What it could break.


  Conntrack -F / -D not working on offloaded tuples.
