      selftests: netfilter: nft_tproxy.sh: add tcp tests · 7e37e0ea
      Antonio Ojea authored
      The TPROXY functionality is widely used, however, there are only mptcp
      selftests covering this feature.
      
      The selftests represent the most common scenarios and can also be used
      as selfdocumentation of the feature.
      
      UDP and TCP testcases are split in different files because of the
      different nature of the protocols, specially due to the challenges that
      present to reliable test UDP due to the connectionless nature of the
      protocol. UDP only covers the scenarios involving the prerouting hook.
      
      The UDP tests are signfinicantly slower than the TCP ones, hence they
      use a larger timeout, it takes 20 seconds to run the full UDP suite
      on a 48 vCPU Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU @2.60GHz.

      netfilter: conntrack: add clash resolution for reverse collisions · a4e6a103
      Florian Westphal authored
      Given existing entry:
      ORIGIN: a:b -> c:d
      REPLY:  c:d -> a:b
      
      And colliding entry:
      ORIGIN: c:d -> a:b
      REPLY:  a:b -> c:d
      
      The colliding ct (and the associated skb) get dropped on insert.
      Permit this by checking if the colliding entry matches the reply
      direction.
      
      Happens when both ends send packets at same time, both requests are picked
      up as NEW, rather than NEW for the 'first' and 'ESTABLISHED' for the
      second packet.
      
      This is an esoteric condition, as ruleset must permit NEW connections
      in either direction and both peers must already have a bidirectional
      traffic flow at the time conntrack gets enabled.
      
      Allow the 'reverse' skb to pass and assign the existing (clashing)
      entry.
      
      While at it, also drop the extra 'dying' check, this is already
      tested earlier by the calling function.

      netfilter: nf_nat: don't try nat source port reallocation for reverse dir clash · d8f84a9b
      Florian Westphal authored
      A conntrack entry can be inserted to the connection tracking table if there
      is no existing entry with an identical tuple in either direction.
      
      Example:
      INITIATOR -> NAT/PAT -> RESPONDER
      
      Initiator passes through NAT/PAT ("us") and SNAT is done (saddr rewrite).
      Then, later, NAT/PAT machine itself also wants to connect to RESPONDER.
      
      This will not work if the SNAT done earlier has same IP:PORT source pair.
      
      Conntrack table has:
      ORIGINAL: $IP_INITATOR:$SPORT -> $IP_RESPONDER:$DPORT
      REPLY:    $IP_RESPONDER:$DPORT -> $IP_NAT:$SPORT
      
      and new locally originating connection wants:
      ORIGINAL: $IP_NAT:$SPORT -> $IP_RESPONDER:$DPORT
      REPLY:    $IP_RESPONDER:$DPORT -> $IP_NAT:$SPORT
      
      This is handled by the NAT engine which will do a source port reallocation
      for the locally originating connection that is colliding with an existing
      tuple by attempting a source port rewrite.
      
      This is done even if this new connection attempt did not go through a
      masquerade/snat rule.
      
      There is a rare race condition with connection-less protocols like UDP,
      where we do the port reallocation even though its not needed.
      
      This happens when new packets from the same, pre-existing flow are received
      in both directions at the exact same time on different CPUs after the
      conntrack table was flushed (or conntrack becomes active for first time).
      
      With strict ordering/single cpu, the first packet creates new ct entry and
      second packet is resolved as established reply packet.
      
      With parallel processing, both packets are picked up as new and both get
      their own ct entry.
      
      In this case, the 'reply' packet (picked up as ORIGINAL) can be mangled by
      NAT engine because a port collision is detected.
      
      This change isn't enough to prevent a packet drop later during
      nf_conntrack_confirm(), the existing clash resolution strategy will not
      detect such reverse clash case.  This is resolved by a followup patch.

      Linus Torvalds authored
      Pull networking updates from Jakub Kicinski:
       "The zero-copy changes are relatively significant, but regression risk
        should be contained. The feature needs to be used to cause trouble.
      
        Also it feels like we got an order of magnitude more semi-automated
        "refactoring" chaff than usual, I wonder if it's just us.
      
        Core & protocols:
      
         - Support Device Memory TCP, ability to zero-copy receive TCP
           payloads to a DMABUF region of memory while packet headers land
           separately in normal kernel buffers, and TCP processes then as
           usual.
      
         - The ability to read the PTP PHC (Physical Hardware Clock) alongside
           MONOTONIC_RAW timestamps with PTP_SYS_OFFSET_EXTENDED. Previously
           only CLOCK_REALTIME was supported.
      
         - Allow matching on all bits of IP DSCP for routing decisions.
           Previously we only supported on matching TOS bits in IPv4 which is
           a narrower interpretation of the same header field.
      
         - Increase the range of weights used for multi-path routing from
           8 bits to 16 bits.
      
         - Add support for IPv6 PIO p flag in the Prefix Information Option
           per draft-ietf-6man-pio-pflag.
      
         - IPv6 IOAM6 support for new tunsrc encap mode for better
           performance.
      
         - Detect destinations which blackhole MPTCP traffic and avoid
           initiating MPTCP connections to them for a certain period of time,
           1h by default.
      
         - Improve IPsec control path performance by removing the inexact
           policies list.
      
         - AF_VSOCK: add support for SIOCOUTQ ioctl.
      
         - Add enum for reasons TCP reset was sent for easier tracing.
      
         - Add SMC ringbufs usage statistics.
      
        Drivers:
      
         - Handle netconsole setup failures more gracefully, don't fail
           loading, retain the specified target as disabled.
      
         - Extend bonding's IPsec offload pass thru capabilities (ESN, stats).
      
        Filtering:
      
         - Add TCP_BPF_SOCK_OPS_CB_FLAGS to bpf_*sockopt() to address the case
           when long-lived sockets miss a chance to set additional callbacks
           if a sockops program was not attached early in their lifetime.
      
         - Support using BPF skb helpers in tracepoints.
      
         - Conntrack Netlink: support CTA_FILTER for flush.
      
         - Improve SCTP support in nfnetlink_queue.
      
         - Improve performance of large nftables flush transactions.
      
        Things we sprinkled into general kernel code:
      
         - selftests: support setting an "interpreter" for script files; make
           it easy to run as separate cases tests where one "interpreter" is
           fed various test descriptions (in our case packet sequences).
      
        Driver API:
      
         - Extend core and ethtool APIs to support many PHYs connected to a
           single interface (PHY topologies).
      
         - Extend cable diagnostics to specify whether Time Domain
           Reflectometry (TDR) or Active Link Cable Diagnostic (ALCD) was
           used.
      
         - Add library for implementing MAC-PHY Ethernet drivers for SPI
           devices compatible with Open Alliance 10BASE-T1x MAC-PHY Serial
           Interface (TC6) standard.
      
         - Add helpers to the PHY framework, for PHYs following the Open
           Alliance standards:
             - 1000BaseT1 link settings
             - cable test and diagnostics
      
         - Support listing / dumping all allocated RSS contexts.
