Pablo Neira Ayuso says: ==================== netfilter updates: nf_tables pull request The following patchset contains the current original nf_tables tree condensed in 17 patches. I have organized them by chronogical order since the original nf_tables code was released in 2009 and by dependencies between the different patches. The patches are: 1) Adapt all existing hooks in the tree to pass hook ops to the hook callback function, required by nf_tables, from Patrick McHardy. 2) Move alloc_null_binding to nf_nat_core, as it is now also needed by nf_tables and ip_tables, original patch from Patrick McHardy but required major changes to adapt it to the current tree that I made. 3) Add nf_tables core, including the netlink API, the packet filtering engine, expressions and built-in tables, from Patrick McHardy. This patch includes accumulated fixes since 2009 and minor enhancements. The patch description contains a list of references to the original patches for the record. For those that are not familiar to the original work, see [1], [2] and [3]. 4) Add netlink set API, this replaces the original set infrastructure to introduce a netlink API to add/delete sets and to add/delete set elements. This includes two set types: the hash and the rb-tree sets (used for interval based matching). The main difference with ipset is that this infrastructure is data type agnostic. Patch from Patrick McHardy. 5) Allow expression operation overload, this API change allows us to provide define expression subtypes depending on the configuration that is received from user-space via Netlink. It is used by follow up patches to provide optimized versions of the payload and cmp expressions and the x_tables compatibility layer, from Patrick McHardy. 6) Add optimized data comparison operation, it requires the previous patch, from Patrick McHardy. 7) Add optimized payload implementation, it requires patch 5, from Patrick McHardy. 8) Convert built-in tables to chain types. Each chain type have special semantics (filter, route and nat) that are used by userspace to configure the chain behaviour. The main chain regarding iptables is that tables become containers of chain, with no specific semantics. However, you may still configure your tables and chains to retain iptables like semantics, patch from me. 9) Add compatibility layer for x_tables. This patch adds support to use all existing x_tables extensions from nf_tables, this is used to provide a userspace utility that accepts iptables syntax but used internally the nf_tables kernel core. This patch includes missing features in the nf_tables core such as the per-chain stats, default chain policy and number of chain references, which are required by the iptables compatibility userspace tool. Patch from me. 10) Fix transport protocol matching, this fix is a side effect of the x_tables compatibility layer, which now provides a pointer to the transport header, from me. 11) Add support for dormant tables, this feature allows you to disable all chains and rules that are contained in one table, from me. 12) Add IPv6 NAT support. At the time nf_tables was made, there was no NAT IPv6 support yet, from Tomasz Bursztyka. 13) Complete net namespace support. This patch register the protocol family per net namespace, so tables (thus, other objects contained in tables such as sets, chains and rules) are only visible from the corresponding net namespace, from me. 14) Add the insert operation to the nf_tables netlink API, this requires adding a new position attribute that allow us to locate where in the ruleset a rule needs to be inserted, from Eric Leblond. 15) Add rule batching support, including atomic rule-set updates by using rule-set generations. This patch includes a change to nfnetlink to include two new control messages to indicate the beginning and the end of a batch. The end message is interpreted as the commit message, if it's missing, then the rule-set updates contained in the batch are aborted, from me. 16) Add trace support to the nf_tables packet filtering core, from me. 17) Add ARP filtering support, original patch from Patrick McHardy, but adapted to fit into the chain type infrastructure. This was recovered to be used by nft userspace tool and our compatibility arptables userspace tool. There is still work to do to fully replace x_tables [4] [5] but that can be done incrementally by extending our netlink API. Moreover, looking at netfilter-devel and the amount of contributions to nf_tables we've been getting, I think it would be good to have it mainstream to avoid accumulating large patchsets skip continuous rebases. I tried to provide a reasonable patchset, we have more than 100 accumulated patches in the original nf_tables tree, so I collapsed many of the small fixes to the main patch we had since 2009 and provide a small batch for review to netdev, while trying to retain part of the history. For those who didn't give a try to nf_tables yet, there's a quick howto available from Eric Leblond that describes how to get things working [6]. Comments/reviews welcome. Thanks!

This patch adds a batch support to nfnetlink. Basically, it adds two new control messages: * NFNL_MSG_BATCH_BEGIN, that indicates the beginning of a batch, the nfgenmsg->res_id indicates the nfnetlink subsystem ID. * NFNL_MSG_BATCH_END, that results in the invocation of the ss->commit callback function. If not specified or an error ocurred in the batch, the ss->abort function is invoked instead. The end message represents the commit operation in nftables, the lack of end message results in an abort. This patch also adds the .call_batch function that is only called from the batch receival path. This patch adds atomic rule updates and dumps based on bitmask generations. This allows to atomically commit a set of rule-set updates incrementally without altering the internal state of existing nf_tables expressions/matches/targets. The idea consists of using a generation cursor of 1 bit and a bitmask of 2 bits per rule. Assuming the gencursor is 0, then the genmask (expressed as a bitmask) can be interpreted as: 00 active in the present, will be active in the next generation. 01 inactive in the present, will be active in the next generation. 10 active in the present, will be deleted in the next generation. ^ gencursor Once you invoke the transition to the next generation, the global gencursor is updated: 00 active in the present, will be active in the next generation. 01 active in the present, needs to zero its future, it becomes 00. 10 inactive in the present, delete now. ^ gencursor If a dump is in progress and nf_tables enters a new generation, the dump will stop and return -EBUSY to let userspace know that it has to retry again. In order to invalidate dumps, a global genctr counter is increased everytime nf_tables enters a new generation. This new operation can be used from the user-space utility that controls the firewall, eg. nft -f restore The rule updates contained in `file' will be applied atomically. cat file ----- add filter INPUT ip saddr 1.1.1.1 counter accept #1 del filter INPUT ip daddr 2.2.2.2 counter drop #2 -EOF- Note that the rule 1 will be inactive until the transition to the next generation, the rule 2 will be evicted in the next generation. There is a penalty during the rule update due to the branch misprediction in the packet matching framework. But that should be quickly resolved once the iteration over the commit list that contain rules that require updates is finished. Event notification happens once the rule-set update has been committed. So we skip notifications is case the rule-set update is aborted, which can happen in case that the rule-set is tested to apply correctly. This patch squashed the following patches from Pablo: * nf_tables: atomic rule updates and dumps * nf_tables: get rid of per rule list_head for commits * nf_tables: use per netns commit list * nfnetlink: add batch support and use it from nf_tables * nf_tables: all rule updates are transactional * nf_tables: attach replacement rule after stale one * nf_tables: do not allow deletion/replacement of stale rules * nf_tables: remove unused NFTA_RULE_FLAGS Signed-off-by: Pablo Neira Ayuso <pablo@netfilter.org>

This patch adds a new rule attribute NFTA_RULE_POSITION which is used to store the position of a rule relatively to the others. By providing the create command and specifying the position, the rule is inserted after the rule with the handle equal to the provided position. Regarding notification, the position attribute specifies the handle of the previous rule to make sure we don't point to any stale rule in notifications coming from the commit path.

This patch allows you to temporarily disable an entire table. You can change the state of a dormant table via NFT_MSG_NEWTABLE messages. Using this operation you can wake up a table, so their chains are registered. This provides atomicity at chain level. Thus, the rule-set of one chain is applied at once, avoiding any possible intermediate state in every chain. Still, the chains that belongs to a table are registered consecutively. This also allows you to have inactive tables in the kernel. Signed-off-by: Pablo Neira Ayuso <pablo@netfilter.org>

This patch adds the x_tables compatibility layer. This allows you to use existing x_tables matches and targets from nf_tables. This compatibility later allows us to use existing matches/targets for features that are still missing in nf_tables. We can progressively replace them with native nf_tables extensions. It also provides the userspace compatibility software that allows you to express the rule-set using the iptables syntax but using the nf_tables kernel components. In order to get this compatibility layer working, I've done the following things: * add NFNL_SUBSYS_NFT_COMPAT: this new nfnetlink subsystem is used to query the x_tables match/target revision, so we don't need to use the native x_table getsockopt interface. * emulate xt structures: this required extending the struct nft_pktinfo to include the fragment offset, which is already obtained from ip[6]_tables and that is used by some matches/targets. * add support for default policy to base chains, required to emulate x_tables. * add NFTA_CHAIN_USE attribute to obtain the number of references to chains, required by x_tables emulation. * add chain packet/byte counters using per-cpu. * support 32-64 bits compat. For historical reasons, this patch includes the following patches that were posted in the netfilter-devel mailing list. From Pablo Neira Ayuso: * nf_tables: add default policy to base chains * netfilter: nf_tables: add NFTA_CHAIN_USE attribute * nf_tables: nft_compat: private data of target and matches in contiguous area * nf_tables: validate hooks for compat match/target * nf_tables: nft_compat: release cached matches/targets * nf_tables: x_tables support as a compile time option * nf_tables: fix alias for xtables over nftables module * nf_tables: add packet and byte counters per chain * nf_tables: fix per-chain counter stats if no counters are passed * nf_tables: don't bump chain stats * nf_tables: add protocol and flags for xtables over nf_tables * nf_tables: add ip[6]t_entry emulation * nf_tables: move specific layer 3 compat code to nf_tables_ipv[4|6] * nf_tables: support 32bits-64bits x_tables compat * nf_tables: fix compilation if CONFIG_COMPAT is disabled From Patrick McHardy: * nf_tables: move policy to struct nft_base_chain * nf_tables: send notifications for base chain policy changes From Alexander Primak: * nf_tables: remove the duplicate NF_INET_LOCAL_OUT From Nicolas Dichtel: * nf_tables: fix compilation when nf-netlink is a module Signed-off-by: Pablo Neira Ayuso <pablo@netfilter.org>

This patch converts built-in tables/chains to chain types that allows you to deploy customized table and chain configurations from userspace. After this patch, you have to specify the chain type when creating a new chain: add chain ip filter output { type filter hook input priority 0; } ^^^^ ------ The existing chain types after this patch are: filter, route and nat. Note that tables are just containers of chains with no specific semantics, which is a significant change with regards to iptables. Signed-off-by: Pablo Neira Ayuso <pablo@netfilter.org>

This patch adds the new netlink API for maintaining nf_tables sets independently of the ruleset. The API supports the following operations: - creation of sets - deletion of sets - querying of specific sets - dumping of all sets - addition of set elements - removal of set elements - dumping of all set elements Sets are identified by name, each table defines an individual namespace. The name of a set may be allocated automatically, this is mostly useful in combination with the NFT_SET_ANONYMOUS flag, which destroys a set automatically once the last reference has been released. Sets can be marked constant, meaning they're not allowed to change while linked to a rule. This allows to perform lockless operation for set types that would otherwise require locking. Additionally, if the implementation supports it, sets can (as before) be used as maps, associating a data value with each key (or range), by specifying the NFT_SET_MAP flag and can be used for interval queries by specifying the NFT_SET_INTERVAL flag. Set elements are added and removed incrementally. All element operations support batching, reducing netlink message and set lookup overhead. The old "set" and "hash" expressions are replaced by a generic "lookup" expression, which binds to the specified set. Userspace is not aware of the actual set implementation used by the kernel anymore, all configuration options are generic. Currently the implementation selection logic is largely missing and the kernel will simply use the first registered implementation supporting the requested operation. Eventually, the plan is to have userspace supply a description of the data characteristics and select the implementation based on expected performance and memory use. This patch includes the new 'lookup' expression to look up for element matching in the set. This patch includes kernel-doc descriptions for this set API and it also includes the following fixes. From Patrick McHardy: * netfilter: nf_tables: fix set element data type in dumps * netfilter: nf_tables: fix indentation of struct nft_set_elem comments * netfilter: nf_tables: fix oops in nft_validate_data_load() * netfilter: nf_tables: fix oops while listing sets of built-in tables * netfilter: nf_tables: destroy anonymous sets immediately if binding fails * netfilter: nf_tables: propagate context to set iter callback * netfilter: nf_tables: add loop detection From Pablo Neira Ayuso: * netfilter: nf_tables: allow to dump all existing sets * netfilter: nf_tables: fix wrong type for flags variable in newelem Signed-off-by: Patrick McHardy <kaber@trash.net> Signed-off-by: Pablo Neira Ayuso <pablo@netfilter.org>

This patch adds nftables which is the intended successor of iptables. This packet filtering framework reuses the existing netfilter hooks, the connection tracking system, the NAT subsystem, the transparent proxying engine, the logging infrastructure and the userspace packet queueing facilities. In a nutshell, nftables provides a pseudo-state machine with 4 general purpose registers of 128 bits and 1 specific purpose register to store verdicts. This pseudo-machine comes with an extensible instruction set, a.k.a. "expressions" in the nftables jargon. The expressions included in this patch provide the basic functionality, they are: * bitwise: to perform bitwise operations. * byteorder: to change from host/network endianess. * cmp: to compare data with the content of the registers. * counter: to enable counters on rules. * ct: to store conntrack keys into register. * exthdr: to match IPv6 extension headers. * immediate: to load data into registers. * limit: to limit matching based on packet rate. * log: to log packets. * meta: to match metainformation that usually comes with the skbuff. * nat: to perform Network Address Translation. * payload: to fetch data from the packet payload and store it into registers. * reject (IPv4 only): to explicitly close connection, eg. TCP RST. Using this instruction-set, the userspace utility 'nft' can transform the rules expressed in human-readable text representation (using a new syntax, inspired by tcpdump) to nftables bytecode. nftables also inherits the table, chain and rule objects from iptables, but in a more configurable way, and it also includes the original datatype-agnostic set infrastructure with mapping support. This set infrastructure is enhanced in the follow up patch (netfilter: nf_tables: add netlink set API). This patch includes the following components: * the netlink API: net/netfilter/nf_tables_api.c and include/uapi/netfilter/nf_tables.h * the packet filter core: net/netfilter/nf_tables_core.c * the expressions (described above): net/netfilter/nft_*.c * the filter tables: arp, IPv4, IPv6 and bridge: net/ipv4/netfilter/nf_tables_ipv4.c net/ipv6/netfilter/nf_tables_ipv6.c net/ipv4/netfilter/nf_tables_arp.c net/bridge/netfilter/nf_tables_bridge.c * the NAT table (IPv4 only): net/ipv4/netfilter/nf_table_nat_ipv4.c * the route table (similar to mangle): net/ipv4/netfilter/nf_table_route_ipv4.c net/ipv6/netfilter/nf_table_route_ipv6.c * internal definitions under: include/net/netfilter/nf_tables.h include/net/netfilter/nf_tables_core.h * It also includes an skeleton expression: net/netfilter/nft_expr_template.c and the preliminary implementation of the meta target net/netfilter/nft_meta_target.c It also includes a change in struct nf_hook_ops to add a new pointer to store private data to the hook, that is used to store the rule list per chain. This patch is based on the patch from Patrick McHardy, plus merged accumulated cleanups, fixes and small enhancements to the nftables code that has been done since 2009, which are: From Patrick McHardy: * nf_tables: adjust netlink handler function signatures * nf_tables: only retry table lookup after successful table module load * nf_tables: fix event notification echo and avoid unnecessary messages * nft_ct: add l3proto support * nf_tables: pass expression context to nft_validate_data_load() * nf_tables: remove redundant definition * nft_ct: fix maxattr initialization * nf_tables: fix invalid event type in nf_tables_getrule() * nf_tables: simplify nft_data_init() usage * nf_tables: build in more core modules * nf_tables: fix double lookup expression unregistation * nf_tables: move expression initialization to nf_tables_core.c * nf_tables: build in payload module * nf_tables: use NFPROTO constants * nf_tables: rename pid variables to portid * nf_tables: save 48 bits per rule * nf_tables: introduce chain rename * nf_tables: check for duplicate names on chain rename * nf_tables: remove ability to specify handles for new rules * nf_tables: return error for rule change request * nf_tables: return error for NLM_F_REPLACE without rule handle * nf_tables: include NLM_F_APPEND/NLM_F_REPLACE flags in rule notification * nf_tables: fix NLM_F_MULTI usage in netlink notifications * nf_tables: include NLM_F_APPEND in rule dumps From Pablo Neira Ayuso: * nf_tables: fix stack overflow in nf_tables_newrule * nf_tables: nft_ct: fix compilation warning * nf_tables: nft_ct: fix crash with invalid packets * nft_log: group and qthreshold are 2^16 * nf_tables: nft_meta: fix socket uid,gid handling * nft_counter: allow to restore counters * nf_tables: fix module autoload * nf_tables: allow to remove all rules placed in one chain * nf_tables: use 64-bits rule handle instead of 16-bits * nf_tables: fix chain after rule deletion * nf_tables: improve deletion performance * nf_tables: add missing code in route chain type * nf_tables: rise maximum number of expressions from 12 to 128 * nf_tables: don't delete table if in use * nf_tables: fix basechain release From Tomasz Bursztyka: * nf_tables: Add support for changing users chain's name * nf_tables: Change chain's name to be fixed sized * nf_tables: Add support for replacing a rule by another one * nf_tables: Update uapi nftables netlink header documentation From Florian Westphal: * nft_log: group is u16, snaplen u32 From Phil Oester: * nf_tables: operational limit match Signed-off-by: Patrick McHardy <kaber@trash.net> Signed-off-by: Pablo Neira Ayuso <pablo@netfilter.org>

Implement batadv_tt_entries() to get the number of entries fitting in a given amount of bytes. This computation is done several times in the code and therefore it is useful to have an helper function.

This is not used anymore with the new fragmentation, and it might actually mess up the bonding code because find_router() assumes it is only called once per packet.

The module prints a warning when the MTU on the hard interface is too small to transfer payload traffic without fragmentation. The required MTU is calculated based on the encapsulation header size. If network coding is compild into the module its header size is taken into account as well.

the icmp and the icmp_rr packets share the same initial fields since they use the same code to be processed and forwarded. Extract the common fields and put them into a separate struct so that future ICMP packets can be easily added without bloating the packet definition. However, keep the seqno field outside of the newly created common header because future ICMP types may require a bigger sequence number space. This change breaks compatibility due to fields reordering in the ICMP headers. Signed-off-by: Antonio Quartulli <antonio@open-mesh.com> Signed-off-by: Marek Lindner <lindner_marek@yahoo.de>

When comparing a network ordered value with a constant, it is better to convert the constant at compile time by means of htons() instead of converting the value at runtime using ntohs(). This refactoring may slightly improve the code performance. Moreover substitute __constant_htons() with htons() since the latter increase readability and it is smart enough to be as efficient as the former Signed-off-by: Antonio Quartulli <ordex@autistici.org> Signed-off-by: Marek Lindner <lindner_marek@yahoo.de> Acked-by: Simon Wunderlich <siwu@hrz.tu-chemnitz.de>

Non-broadcast packets larger than MTU are fragmented and sent with an encapsulating header. Up to 16 fragments are supported, which are sent in reverse order on the wire to allow minimal memory copying when creating fragments.

Fragments arriving at their destination are buffered for later merge. Merged packets are passed to the main receive function as had they never been fragmented. Fragments are forwarded without merging if the MTU of the outgoing interface is smaller than the size of the merged packet.

Remove the existing fragmentation code before adding the new version and delete unicast.{h,c}. batadv_unicast_send_skb() is moved to send.c and renamed to batadv_send_skb_unicast(). fragmentation entry in sysfs (bat_priv->fragmentation) is kept for use in the new fragmentation code. BATADV_UNICAST_FRAG packet type is renamed to BATADV_FRAG for use in the new fragmentation code.
