Additional remark: In IPv6 side, xfrm6_policy_check() _is_ called after nf_reset_ct(skb) Steffen, do you have some comments ? Some context: commit b59c270104f03960069596722fea70340579244d Author: Patrick McHardy <[email protected]> Date: Fri Jan 6 23:06:10 2006 -0800 [NETFILTER]: Keep conntrack reference until IPsec policy checks are done Keep the conntrack reference until policy checks have been performed for IPsec NAT support. The reference needs to be dropped before a packet is queued to avoid having the conntrack module unloadable. Signed-off-by: Patrick McHardy <[email protected]> Signed-off-by: David S.
