From cf56aa8dd26328a9af4ffe7fb0bd8fcfa9407112 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Pablo Neira Ayuso Date: Fri, 7 Feb 2025 13:25:57 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] Revert "netfilter: flowtable: teardown flow if cached mtu is stale" This reverts commit b8baac3b9c5cc4b261454ff87d75ae8306016ffd. IPv4 packets with no DF flag set on result in frequent flow entry teardown cycles, this is visible in the network topology that is used in the nft_flowtable.sh test. nft_flowtable.sh test ocassionally fails reporting that the dscp_fwd test sees no packets going through the flowtable path.
