Usually the HW offloading is stateless. For some stateful offloading like a TCP connection, HW module will help provide the ability of a full offloading w/o SW participation after the connection was established. The basic usage is that in the first flow the application should add the conntrack action and in the following flow(s) the application should use the conntrack item to match on the result. A TCP connection has two directions traffic. To set a conntrack action context correctly, information from packets of both directions are required. The conntrack action should be created on one port and supply the peer port as a parameter to the action. After context creating, it could only be used between the ports (dual-port mode) or a single port. The application should modify the action via the API "action_handle_update" only when before using it to create a flow with opposite direction. This will help the driver to recognize the direction of the flow to be created, especially in single port mode. The traffic from both directions will go through the same port if the application works as an "forwarding engine" but not a end point. There is no need to call the update interface if the subsequent flows have nothing to be changed. Query will be supported via action_ctx_query interface, about the current packets information and connection status. Tha fields query capabilities depends on the HW. For the packets received during the conntrack setup, it is suggested to re-inject the packets in order to take full advantage of the conntrack. Only the valid packets should pass the conntrack, packets with invalid TCP information, like out of window, or with invalid header, like malformed, should not pass.
