This patch adds the missing support to filter IPv6 from kernel-space
by means of the BSF API that libnetfilter_conntrack provides.

This patch adds the NetlinkEventsReliable clause, this is useful
to turn on reliable Netlink event delivery. This features
requires a Linux kernel >= 2.6.31.

With this patch, we reset the event iteration limit counter after
we have performed an event handling run. Thus, every run loop
always performs a maximum of EventIterationLimit event handling
instead of keeping the old credits for the next run loop.

With this patch, a) we set the file descriptors for the
synchronization channels as non-blocking, b) we perform more than
one recv() call per select() signal on the socket and c) we limit
the iteration to the value that EventIterationLimit has set.

This patch reworks the commit phase to avoid the forking. This is
particularly useful in active-active setups in which one node
has to commit the external cache while it is receiving new entries
to be added in the external cache. This results in really high
commit times due to the penalty of the copy-on-write that fork
performs.
The default number of steps in one run loop is limited to 64 by now.
No option to tune this parameter is still available via the
configuration file.

This patch fixes an incorrect use of nfct_get_attr_u32() instead of
nfct_get_attr_u8() to obtain the current TCP state. This patch also
sets the IP_CT_TCP_FLAG_CLOSE_INIT for states >= TIME_WAIT.
The function nl_update_conntrack() is currently unused so this fix
does not resolve any pending issue.

This patch fixes a memory leak in cache_update_force(). The problem
occurs if the object does not exists in the cache and we fail to
add it.

This patch re-introduces `-s queue' but now it displays generic
queue statistics.

In 400ae54438c4b85126f9fab0ae1dc067823b70f7, we added the SCTP
support by means of a structure that was encapsulated in an
TLV attribute. However, this structure didn't handle alignment
and endianess issues appropriately. Similar problem was
introduced in b808645ec71b7cc22cf5106b3d79625d07e6077c along
with the DCCP support.
This patch moves every field of this structure to independent
attributes. I decided not to use nesting to make building and
parsing more simple.
Using TLV is a good idea, specially for DCCP and SCTP that are
under development and that may include new fields and obsolete
them in the future.

This patch adds the ability to dump the list of existing child
processes. In general, it would be hard to display one since
child processes are generally forked for very specific tasks,
like commit and flush operations, and they have very limited
lifetime. However, this can be handy for debugging problems.

This patch adds a dedicated commit handler since there is a possible
race condition that can happen if the child process ends before we

triggered.

In 6f5666a29cb7cbff08ce926ee1edb84a311ff6ee, I moved the flush
operation into a child process and to use a disposable handler
to perform flush requests. This patch adds a dedicated flush
handler since there is a possible race condition that can
happen if the child process ends before we have received all
the event messages that the flush request has triggered.

In 0374398fd14bf587d80d9d31e361e266e69387c8, I introduced the process

Without this patch, the process structures are never released.

This patch removes the cache write-through clause. This feature
remained undocumented although some has found it looking at the
source code. This feature has remained in the tree for quite
some time although it has several limitations. Moreover, it
is specifically broken and dangerous for Linux kernels >= 2.6.29
since it generates loops in the synchronization.
We do this removal first to prepare the introduction of a feature
to bypass the external cache.

With this patch, the flush operation is performed by a child process.
Thus, the parent process digests destroy events that ctnetlink reports
back and, thanks to the origin infrastructure, we skip the messy
implicit synchronization that are triggered by such events.
This patch requires a Linux kernel >= 2.6.29 to benefit from this
change, otherwise it has no effect.

Since Linux kernel 2.6.29, ctnetlink reports the changes that have
been done using ctnetlink. With this patch, conntrackd can recognize
who is the origin of the event messages. For example, this is
interesting to avoid a messy implicit bulk send during the commit
of entries.

This patch adds a simple infrastructure that allows to account
the child processes that have been forked. This also includes
a callback handler that can be registered that is called once
the child process finishes.
We can extended this later to include an alarm to limit the
maximum lifetime of a forked child process. This is good to
ensure that child processes behave timely.

This patch extends the generic_opt_check() function to add
extra information on the possible option combinations. Under
some specific situations, like the creation and getting of
a conntrack, you may specify the original or the reply tuple
but at least one MUST be present. This handling has been
always tricky, it still remains but we're more user friendly
at least.
