netfilter: nft_hash: support of symmetric hash
This patch provides symmetric hash support according to source
ip address and port, and destination ip address and port.
For this purpose, the __skb_get_hash_symmetric() is used to
identify the flow as it uses FLOW_DISSECTOR_F_STOP_AT_FLOW_LABEL
flag by default.
The new attribute NFTA_HASH_TYPE has been included to support
different types of hashing functions. Currently supported
NFT_HASH_JENKINS through jhash and NFT_HASH_SYM through symhash.
The main difference between both types are:
- jhash requires an expression with sreg, symhash doesn't.
- symhash supports modulus and offset, but not seed.
Examples:
nft add rule ip nat prerouting ct mark set jhash ip saddr mod 2
nft add rule ip nat prerouting ct mark set symhash mod 2
By default, jenkins hash will be used if no hash type is
provided for compatibility reasons.
