+Subject: [PATCH] netfilter: conntrack: remove offload_pickup sysctl again
+
+These two sysctls were added because the hardcoded defaults (2 minutes,
+tcp, 30 seconds, udp) turned out to be too low for some setups.
+
+They appeared in 5.14-rc1 so it should be fine to remove it again.
+
+Marcelo convinced me that there should be no difference between a flow
+that was offloaded vs. a flow that was not wrt. timeout handling.
+Thus the default is changed to those for TCP established and UDP stream,
+5 days and 120 seconds, respectively.
+
+Marcelo also suggested to account for the timeout value used for the
+offloading, this avoids increase beyond the value in the conntrack-sysctl
+and will also instantly expire the conntrack entry with altered sysctls.
+
+Example:
+ nf_conntrack_udp_timeout_stream=60
+ nf_flowtable_udp_timeout=60
+
+This will remove offloaded udp flows after one minute, rather than two.
+
+An earlier version of this patch also cleared the ASSURED bit to
+allow nf_conntrack to evict the entry via early_drop (i.e., table full).
+However, it looks like we can safely assume that connection timed out
+via HW is still in established state, so this isn't needed.
+
+Quoting Oz:
+ [..] the hardware sends all packets with a set FIN flags to sw.
+ [..] Connections that are aged in hardware are expected to be in the
+ established state.
+
+In case it turns out that back-to-sw-path transition can occur for
+'dodgy' connections too (e.g., one side disappeared while software-path
+would have been in RETRANS timeout), we can adjust this later.
