net: bpfilter: restart bpfilter_umh when error occurred
The bpfilter_umh will be stopped via __stop_umh() when the bpfilter error occurred. The bpfilter_umh() couldn't start again because there is no restart routine. The section of the bpfilter_umh_{start/end} is no longer .init.rodata because these area should be reused in the restart routine. hence the section name is changed to .bpfilter_umh. The bpfilter_ops->start() is restart callback. it will be called when bpfilter_umh is stopped. The stop bit means bpfilter_umh is stopped. this bit is set by both start and stop routine. Before this patch, Test commands: $ iptables -vnL $ kill -9 <pid of bpfilter_umh> $ iptables -vnL [ 480.045136] bpfilter: write fail -32 $ iptables -vnL All iptables commands will fail. After this patch, Test commands: $ iptables -vnL $ kill -9 <pid of bpfilter_umh> $ iptables -vnL $ iptables -vnL Now, all iptables commands will work.
