[RFC PATCH v1 net-next 3/3] netfilter: nf_flow_table_ip: don't follow fastpath when marked teardown
From: Eric Woudstra
Date: Tue Feb 04 2025 - 14:56:30 EST
When a flow is marked for teardown, because the destination is not valid
any more, the software fastpath may still be in effect and traffic is
still send to the wrong destination. Change the ip/ipv6 hooks to not use
the software fastpath for a flow that is marked to be teared down and let
the packet continue along the normal path.
