    openvswitch: Fix cached ct with helper. · 16ec3d4f
    Joe Stringer 提交于
    When using conntrack helpers from OVS, a common configuration is to
    perform a lookup without specifying a helper, then go through a
    firewalling policy, only to decide to attach a helper afterwards.
    
    In this case, the initial lookup will cause a ct entry to be attached to
    the skb, then the later commit with helper should attach the helper and
    confirm the connection. However, the helper attachment has been missing.
    If the user has enabled automatic helper attachment, then this issue
    will be masked as it will be applied in init_conntrack(). It is also
    masked if the action is executed from ovs_packet_cmd_execute() as that
    will construct a fresh skb.
    
    This patch fixes the issue by making an explicit call to try to assign
    the helper if there is a discrepancy between the action's helper and the
    current skb->nfct.
