conntrack event/hook when ''expected'' connection terminates ?
Hello, I need to understand how conntrack_core.c handles the termination of ''expected'' connection; handling in the case when ''expected'' connection arrived, then terminates (In my conntrack module, I need to specially handle the event of termination termination of ''expected'' connection.) In ip_conntrack_core.c, I can''t find the call chain of deallocation of ''expectation'' after termination of ''expected'' connection. Deallocation must happen somewhere, but I don''t see any hooks related to termination of ''expected'' connection. Or maybe the termination of expected connection is not detected at all, but handled via expiring timer ? Can anyone confirm or correct this ? So my question is how is termination of expected connection handled by conntrack code. Thanks Yakov Lerner -- iler_ml@fastmail.fm -- http://www.fastmail.fm - IMAP accessible web-mail
