Flows that are in teardown state (due to RST / FIN TCP packet) still have their offload flag set on. Hence, the conntrack garbage collector may race to undo the timeout adjustment that the fixup routine performs, leaving the conntrack entry in place with the internal offload timeout (one day). Update teardown flow state to ESTABLISHED and set tracking to liberal, then once the offload bit is cleared, adjust timeout if it is more than the default fixup timeout (conntrack might already have set a lower timeout from the packet path).

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 Restructured Text 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.
