vti: get rid of nf mark rule in prerouting
This patch fixes and improves the use of vti interfaces (while lightly changing the way of configuring them). Currently: - it is necessary to identify and mark inbound IPsec packets destined to each vti interface, via netfilter rules in the mangle table at prerouting hook. - the vti module cannot retrieve the right tunnel in input since commit b9959fd3: vti tunnels all have an i_key, but the tunnel lookup is done with flag TUNNEL_NO_KEY, so there no chance to retrieve them. - the i_key is used by the outbound processing as a mark to lookup for the right SP and SA bundle. This patch uses the o_key to store the vti mark (instead of i_key) and enables: - to avoid the need for previously marking the inbound skbuffs via a netfilter rule. - to properly retrieve the right tunnel in input, only based on the IPsec packet outer addresses. - to properly perform an inbound policy check (using the tunnel o_key as a mark). - to properly perform an outbound SPD and SAD lookup (using the tunnel o_key as a mark). - to keep the current mark of the skbuff. The skbuff mark is neither used nor changed by the vti interface. Only the vti interface o_key is used. SAs have a wildcard mark. SPs have a mark equal to the vti interface o_key. The vti interface must be created as follows (i_key = 0, o_key = mark): ip link add vti1 mode vti local 1.1.1.1 remote 2.2.2.2 okey 1 The SPs attached to vti1 must be created as follows (mark = vti1 o_key): ip xfrm policy add dir out mark 1 tmpl src 1.1.1.1 dst 2.2.2.2 \ proto esp mode tunnel ip xfrm policy add dir in mark 1 tmpl src 2.2.2.2 dst 1.1.1.1 \ proto esp mode tunnel The SAs are created with the default wildcard mark. There is no distinction between global vs. vti SAs. Just their addresses will possibly link them to a vti interface: ip xfrm state add src 1.1.1.1 dst 2.2.2.2 proto esp spi 1000 mode tunnel \ enc "cbc(aes)" "azertyuiopqsdfgh" ip xfrm state add src 2.2.2.2 dst 1.1.1.1 proto esp spi 2000 mode tunnel \ enc "cbc(aes)" "sqbdhgqsdjqjsdfh" To avoid matching "global" (not vti) SPs in vti interfaces, global SPs should no use the default wildcard mark, but explicitly match mark 0. To avoid a double SPD lookup in input and output (in global and vti SPDs), the NOPOLICY and NOXFRM options should be set on the vti interfaces: echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/conf/vti1/disable_policy echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/conf/vti1/disable_xfrm The outgoing traffic is steered to vti1 by a route via the vti interface: ip route add 192.168.0.0/16 dev vti1 The incoming IPsec traffic is steered to vti1 because its outer addresses match the vti1 tunnel configuration.
