Linux kernel source tree

conntrack labels can only be set when the conntrack has been created
with the "ctlabel" extension.
For older iptables (connlabel match), adding an "-m connlabel" rule
turns on the ctlabel extension allocation for all future conntrack
entries.
For nftables, its only enabled for 'ct label set foo', but not for
'ct label foo' (i.e. check).
But users could have a ruleset that only checks for presence, and rely
on userspace to set a label bit via ctnetlink infrastructure.
This doesn't work without adding a dummy 'ct label set' rule.
We could also enable extension infra for the first (failing) ctnetlink
request, but unlike ruleset we would not be able to disable the
extension again.
Therefore turn on ctlabel extension allocation if an nftables ruleset
checks for a connlabel too.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
