Several header-files, Kconfig files and Makefiles have trailing white-space. Remove it. In netfilter/Kconfig, indent the type of CONFIG_NETFILTER_NETLINK_ACCT correctly. There are semicolons at the end of two function definitions in include/net/netfilter/nf_conntrack_acct.h and include/net/netfilter/nf_conntrack_ecache.h. Remove them. Fix indentation in nf_conntrack_l4proto.h. Signed-off-by: Jeremy Sowden <jeremy@azazel.net> Signed-off-by: Pablo Neira Ayuso <pablo@netfilter.org>
2019-07-16netfilter: nf_conntrack_sip: fix expectation clashxiao ruizhu
When conntracks change during a dialog, SDP messages may be sent from different conntracks to establish expects with identical tuples. In this case expects conflict may be detected for the 2nd SDP message and end up with a process failure. The fixing here is to reuse an existing expect who has the same tuple for a different conntrack if any. Here are two scenarios for the case. 1) SERVER CPE | INVITE SDP | 5060 |<----------------------|5060 | 100 Trying | 5060 |---------------------->|5060 | 183 SDP | 5060 |---------------------->|5060 ===> Conntrack 1 | PRACK | 50601 |<----------------------|5060 | 200 OK (PRACK) | 50601 |---------------------->|5060 | 200 OK (INVITE) | 5060 |---------------------->|5060 | ACK | 50601 |<----------------------|5060 | | |<--- RTP stream ------>| | | | INVITE SDP (t38) | 50601 |---------------------->|5060 ===> Conntrack 2 With a certain configuration in the CPE, SIP messages "183 with SDP" and "re-INVITE with SDP t38" will go through the sip helper to create expects for RTP and RTCP. It is okay to create RTP and RTCP expects for "183", whose master connection source port is 5060, and destination port is 5060. In the "183" message, port in Contact header changes to 50601 (from the original 5060). So the following requests e.g. PRACK and ACK are sent to port 50601. It is a different conntrack (let call Conntrack 2) from the original INVITE (let call Conntrack 1) due to the port difference. In this example, after the call is established, there is RTP stream but no RTCP stream for Conntrack 1, so the RTP expect created upon "183" is cleared, and RTCP expect created for Conntrack 1 retains. When "re-INVITE with SDP t38" arrives to create RTP&RTCP expects, current ALG implementation will call nf_ct_expect_related() for RTP and RTCP. The expects tuples are identical to those for Conntrack 1. RTP expect for Conntrack 2 succeeds in creation as the one for Conntrack 1 has been removed. RTCP expect for Conntrack 2 fails in creation because it has idential tuples and 'conflict' with the one retained for Conntrack 1. And then result in a failure in processing of the re-INVITE. 2) SERVER A CPE | REGISTER | 5060 |<------------------| 5060 ==> CT1 | 200 | 5060 |------------------>| 5060 | | | INVITE SDP(1) | 5060 |<------------------| 5060 | 300(multi choice) | 5060 |------------------>| 5060 SERVER B | ACK | 5060 |<------------------| 5060 | INVITE SDP(2) | 5060 |-------------------->| 5060 ==> CT2 | 100 | 5060 |<--------------------| 5060 | 200(contact changes)| 5060 |<--------------------| 5060 | ACK | 5060 |-------------------->| 50601 ==> CT3 | | |<--- RTP stream ---->| | | | BYE | 5060 |<--------------------| 50601 | 200 | 5060 |-------------------->| 50601 | INVITE SDP(3) | 5060 |<------------------| 5060 ==> CT1 CPE sends an INVITE request(1) to Server A, and creates a RTP&RTCP expect pair for this Conntrack 1 (CT1). Server A responds 300 to redirect to Server B. The RTP&RTCP expect pairs created on CT1 are removed upon 300 response. CPE sends the INVITE request(2) to Server B, and creates an expect pair for the new conntrack (due to destination address difference), let call CT2. Server B changes the port to 50601 in 200 OK response, and the following requests ACK and BYE from CPE are sent to 50601. The call is established. There is RTP stream and no RTCP stream. So RTP expect is removed and RTCP expect for CT2 retains. As BYE request is sent from port 50601, it is another conntrack, let call CT3, different from CT2 due to the port difference. So the BYE request will not remove the RTCP expect for CT2. Then another outgoing call is made, with the same RTP port being used (not definitely but possibly). CPE firstly sends the INVITE request(3) to Server A, and tries to create a RTP&RTCP expect pairs for this CT1. In current ALG implementation, the RTCP expect for CT1 fails in creation because it 'conflicts' with the residual one for CT2. As a result the INVITE request fails to send.

2017-11-02License cleanup: add SPDX GPL-2.0 license identifier to files with no licenseGreg Kroah-Hartman
Many source files in the tree are missing licensing information, which makes it harder for compliance tools to determine the correct license. By default all files without license information are under the default license of the kernel, which is GPL version 2. Update the files which contain no license information with the 'GPL-2.0' SPDX license identifier. The SPDX identifier is a legally binding shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text. This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart and Philippe Ombredanne. How this work was done: Patches were generated and checked against linux-4.14-rc6 for a subset of the use cases: - file had no licensing information it it. - file was a */uapi/* one with no licensing information in it, - file was a */uapi/* one with existing licensing information, Further patches will be generated in subsequent months to fix up cases where non-standard license headers were used, and references to license had to be inferred by heuristics based on keywords. The analysis to determine which SPDX License Identifier to be applied to a file was done in a spreadsheet of side by side results from of the output of two independent scanners (ScanCode & Windriver) producing SPDX tag:value files created by Philippe Ombredanne. Philippe prepared the base worksheet, and did an initial spot review of a few 1000 files. The 4.13 kernel was the starting point of the analysis with 60,537 files assessed. Kate Stewart did a file by file comparison of the scanner results in the spreadsheet to determine which SPDX license identifier(s) to be applied to the file. She confirmed any determination that was not immediately clear with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation. Criteria used to select files for SPDX license identifier tagging was: - Files considered eligible had to be source code files. - Make and config files were included as candidates if they contained >5 lines of source - File already had some variant of a license header in it (even if <5 lines). All documentation files were explicitly excluded. The following heuristics were used to determine which SPDX license identifiers to apply. - when both scanners couldn't find any license traces, file was considered to have no license information in it, and the top level COPYING file license applied. For non */uapi/* files that summary was: SPDX license identifier # files ---------------------------------------------------|------- GPL-2.0 11139 and resulted in the first patch in this series. If that file was a */uapi/* path one, it was "GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note" otherwise it was "GPL-2.0". Results of that was: SPDX license identifier # files ---------------------------------------------------|------- GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 930 and resulted in the second patch in this series. - if a file had some form of licensing information in it, and was one of the */uapi/* ones, it was denoted with the Linux-syscall-note if any GPL family license was found in the file or had no licensing in it (per prior point). Results summary: SPDX license identifier # files ---------------------------------------------------|------ GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 270 GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 169 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-2-Clause) 21 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 17 LGPL-2.1+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 15 GPL-1.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 14 ((GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 5 LGPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 4 LGPL-2.1 WITH Linux-syscall-note 3 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR MIT) 3 ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) AND MIT) 1 and that resulted in the third patch in this series. - when the two scanners agreed on the detected license(s), that became the concluded license(s). - when there was disagreement between the two scanners (one detected a license but the other didn't, or they both detected different licenses) a manual inspection of the file occurred. - In most cases a manual inspection of the information in the file resulted in a clear resolution of the license that should apply (and which scanner probably needed to revisit its heuristics). - When it was not immediately clear, the license identifier was confirmed with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation. - If there was any question as to the appropriate license identifier, the file was flagged for further research and to be revisited later in time. In total, over 70 hours of logged manual review was done on the spreadsheet to determine the SPDX license identifiers to apply to the source files by Kate, Philippe, Thomas and, in some cases, confirmation by lawyers working with the Linux Foundation. Kate also obtained a third independent scan of the 4.13 code base from FOSSology, and compared selected files where the other two scanners disagreed against that SPDX file, to see if there was new insights. The Windriver scanner is based on an older version of FOSSology in part, so they are related. Thomas did random spot checks in about 500 files from the spreadsheets for the uapi headers and agreed with SPDX license identifier in the files he inspected. For the non-uapi files Thomas did random spot checks in about 15000 files. In initial set of patches against 4.14-rc6, 3 files were found to have copy/paste license identifier errors, and have been fixed to reflect the correct identifier. Additionally Philippe spent 10 hours this week doing a detailed manual inspection and review of the 12,461 patched files from the initial patch version early this week with: - a full scancode scan run, collecting the matched texts, detected license ids and scores - reviewing anything where there was a license detected (about 500+ files) to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct - reviewing anything where there was no detection but the patch license was not GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct This produced a worksheet with 20 files needing minor correction. This worksheet was then exported into 3 different .csv files for the different types of files to be modified. These .csv files were then reviewed by Greg. Thomas wrote a script to parse the csv files and add the proper SPDX tag to the file, in the format that the file expected. This script was further refined by Greg based on the output to detect more types of files automatically and to distinguish between header and source .c files (which need different comment types.) Finally Greg ran the script using the .csv files to generate the patches.

2011-12-23netfilter: rework user-space expectation helper supportPablo Neira Ayuso
This partially reworks bc01befdcf3e40979eb518085a075cbf0aacede0 which added userspace expectation support. This patch removes the nf_ct_userspace_expect_list since now we force to use the new iptables CT target feature to add the helper extension for conntracks that have attached expectations from userspace. A new version of the proof-of-concept code to implement userspace helpers from userspace is available at: http://people.netfilter.org/pablo/userspace-conntrack-helpers/nf-ftp-helper-POC.tar.bz2 This patch also modifies the CT target to allow to set the conntrack's userspace helper status flags. This flag is used to tell the conntrack system to explicitly allocate the helper extension. This helper extension is useful to link the userspace expectations with the master conntrack that is being tracked from one userspace helper. This feature fixes a problem in the current approach of the userspace helper support. Basically, if the master conntrack that has got a userspace expectation vanishes, the expectations point to one invalid memory address. Thus, triggering an oops in the expectation deletion event path. I decided not to add a new revision of the CT target because I only needed to add a new flag for it. I'll document in this issue in the iptables manpage. I have also changed the return value from EINVAL to EOPNOTSUPP if one flag not supported is specified. Thus, in the future adding new features that only require a new flag can be added without a new revision. There is no official code using this in userspace (apart from the proof-of-concept) that uses this infrastructure but there will be some by beginning 2012.

2010-09-28netfilter: ctnetlink: add support for user-space expectation helpersPablo Neira Ayuso
This patch adds the basic infrastructure to support user-space expectation helpers via ctnetlink and the netfilter queuing infrastructure NFQUEUE. Basically, this patch: * adds NF_CT_EXPECT_USERSPACE flag to identify user-space created expectations. I have also added a sanity check in __nf_ct_expect_check() to avoid that kernel-space helpers may create an expectation if the master conntrack has no helper assigned. * adds some branches to check if the master conntrack helper exists, otherwise we skip the code that refers to kernel-space helper such as the local expectation list and the expectation policy. * allows to set the timeout for user-space expectations with no helper assigned. * a list of expectations created from user-space that depends on ctnetlink (if this module is removed, they are deleted). * includes USERSPACE in the /proc output for expectations that have been created by a user-space helper. This patch also modifies ctnetlink to skip including the helper name in the Netlink messages if no kernel-space helper is set (since no user-space expectation has not kernel-space kernel assigned).

2007-07-10[NETFILTER]: nf_conntrack: use hashtable for expectationsPatrick McHardy
Currently all expectations are kept on a global list that - needs to be searched for every new conncetion - needs to be walked for evicting expectations when a master connection has reached its limit - needs to be walked on connection destruction for connections that have open expectations This is obviously not good, especially when considering helpers like H.323 that register *lots* of expectations and can set up permanent expectations, but it also allows for an easy DoS against firewalls using connection tracking helpers. Use a hashtable for expectations to avoid incurring the search overhead for every new connection. The default hash size is 1/256 of the conntrack hash table size, this can be overriden using a module parameter. This patch only introduces the hash table for expectation lookups and keeps other users to reduce the noise, the following patches will get rid of it completely.

2007-02-12[PATCH] mark struct file_operations const 1Arjan van de Ven
Many struct file_operations in the kernel can be "const". Marking them const moves these to the .rodata section, which avoids false sharing with potential dirty data. In addition it'll catch accidental writes at compile time to these shared resources.

2006-12-02[NETFILTER]: nf_conntrack: automatic helper assignment for expectationsPatrick McHardy
Some helpers (namely H.323) manually assign further helpers to expected connections. This is not possible with nf_conntrack anymore since we need to know whether a helper is used at allocation time. Handle the helper assignment centrally, which allows to perform the correct allocation and as a nice side effect eliminates the need for the H.323 helper to fiddle with nf_conntrack_lock. Mid term the allocation scheme really needs to be redesigned since we do both the helper and expectation lookup _twice_ for every new connection.
