expr: hash: support of symmetric hash
This patch provides symmetric hash support according to source ip address and port, and destination ip address and port. 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 Signed-off-by: Laura Garcia Liebana <laura.garcia@zevenet.com> Signed-off-by: Pablo Neira Ayuso <pablo@netfilter.org>
