2024-01-03netfilter: nft_immediate: drop chain reference counter on errorPablo Neira Ayuso
In the init path, nft_data_init() bumps the chain reference counter, decrement it on error by following the error path which calls nft_data_release() to restore it.

2023-07-26netfilter: nf_tables: skip immediate deactivate in _PREPARE_ERRORPablo Neira Ayuso
On error when building the rule, the immediate expression unbinds the chain, hence objects can be deactivated by the transaction records. Otherwise, it is possible to trigger the following warning: WARNING: CPU: 3 PID: 915 at net/netfilter/nf_tables_api.c:2013 nf_tables_chain_destroy+0x1f7/0x210 [nf_tables] CPU: 3 PID: 915 Comm: chain-bind-err- Not tainted 6.1.39 #1 RIP: 0010:nf_tables_chain_destroy+0x1f7/0x210 [nf_tables] Fixes: 4bedf9eee016 ("netfilter: nf_tables: fix chain binding transaction logic") Reported-by: Kevin Rich <kevinrich1337@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Pablo Neira Ayuso <pablo@netfilter.org> Signed-off-by: Florian Westphal <fw@strlen.de>
2023-07-05netfilter: nf_tables: report use refcount overflowPablo Neira Ayuso
Overflow use refcount checks are not complete. Add helper function to deal with object reference counter tracking. Report -EMFILE in case UINT_MAX is reached. nft_use_dec() splats in case that reference counter underflows, which should not ever happen. Add nft_use_inc_restore() and nft_use_dec_restore() which are used to restore reference counter from error and abort paths. Use u32 in nft_flowtable and nft_object since helper functions cannot work on bitfields. Remove the few early incomplete checks now that the helper functions are in place and used to check for refcount overflow.

2023-06-20netfilter: nf_tables: add NFT_TRANS_PREPARE_ERROR to deal with bound set/chainPablo Neira Ayuso
Add a new state to deal with rule expressions deactivation from the newrule error path, otherwise the anonymous set remains in the list in inactive state for the next generation. Mark the set/chain transaction as unbound so the abort path releases this object, set it as inactive in the next generation so it is not reachable anymore from this transaction and reference counter is dropped.

2023-06-20netfilter: nf_tables: fix chain binding transaction logicPablo Neira Ayuso
Add bound flag to rule and chain transactions as in 6a0a8d10a366 ("netfilter: nf_tables: use-after-free in failing rule with bound set") to skip them in case that the chain is already bound from the abort path. This patch fixes an imbalance in the chain use refcnt that triggers a WARN_ON on the table and chain destroy path. This patch also disallows nested chain bindings, which is not supported from userspace. The logic to deal with chain binding in nft_data_hold() and nft_data_release() is not correct. The NFT_TRANS_PREPARE state needs a special handling in case a chain is bound but next expressions in the same rule fail to initialize as described by 1240eb93f061 ("netfilter: nf_tables: incorrect error path handling with NFT_MSG_NEWRULE"). The chain is left bound if rule construction fails, so the objects stored in this chain (and the chain itself) are released by the transaction records from the abort path, follow up patch ("netfilter: nf_tables: add NFT_TRANS_PREPARE_ERROR to deal with bound set/chain") completes this error handling. When deleting an existing rule, chain bound flag is set off so the rule expression .destroy path releases the objects.

2022-08-09netfilter: nf_tables: upfront validation of data via nft_data_init()Pablo Neira Ayuso
Instead of parsing the data and then validate that type and length are correct, pass a description of the expected data so it can be validated upfront before parsing it to bail out earlier. This patch adds a new .size field to specify the maximum size of the data area. The .len field is optional and it is used as an input/output field, it provides the specific length of the expected data in the input path. If then .len field is not specified, then obtained length from the netlink attribute is stored. This is required by cmp, bitwise, range and immediate, which provide no netlink attribute that describes the data length. The immediate expression uses the destination register type to infer the expected data type. Relying on opencoded validation of the expected data might lead to subtle bugs as described in 7e6bc1f6cabc ("netfilter: nf_tables: stricter validation of element data").

2019-07-09netfilter: nf_tables: add hardware offload supportPablo Neira Ayuso
This patch adds hardware offload support for nftables through the existing netdev_ops->ndo_setup_tc() interface, the TC_SETUP_CLSFLOWER classifier and the flow rule API. This hardware offload support is available for the NFPROTO_NETDEV family and the ingress hook. Each nftables expression has a new ->offload interface, that is used to populate the flow rule object that is attached to the transaction object. There is a new per-table NFT_TABLE_F_HW flag, that is set on to offload an entire table, including all of its chains. This patch supports for basic metadata (layer 3 and 4 protocol numbers), 5-tuple payload matching and the accept/drop actions; this also includes basechain hardware offload only.

2019-02-04netfilter: nf_tables: unbind set in rule from commit pathPablo Neira Ayuso
Anonymous sets that are bound to rules from the same transaction trigger a kernel splat from the abort path due to double set list removal and double free. This patch updates the logic to search for the transaction that is responsible for creating the set and disable the set list removal and release, given the rule is now responsible for this. Lookup is reverse since the transaction that adds the set is likely to be at the tail of the list. Moreover, this patch adds the unbind step to deliver the event from the commit path. This should not be done from the worker thread, since we have no guarantees of in-order delivery to the listener. This patch removes the assumption that both activate and deactivate callbacks need to be provided.

2018-07-17netfilter: nf_tables: fix jumpstack depth validationTaehee Yoo
The level of struct nft_ctx is updated by nf_tables_check_loops(). That is used to validate jumpstack depth. But jumpstack validation routine doesn't update and validate recursively. So, in some cases, chain depth can be bigger than the NFT_JUMP_STACK_SIZE. After this patch, The jumpstack validation routine is located in the nft_chain_validate(). When new rules or new set elements are added, the nft_table_validate() is called by the nf_tables_newrule and the nf_tables_newsetelem. The nft_table_validate() calls the nft_chain_validate() that visit all their children chains recursively. So it can update depth of chain certainly.

2018-06-01netfilter: nf_tables: fix chain dependency validationPablo Neira Ayuso
The following ruleset: add table ip filter add chain ip filter input { type filter hook input priority 4; } add chain ip filter ap add rule ip filter input jump ap add rule ip filter ap masquerade results in a panic, because the masquerade extension should be rejected from the filter chain. The existing validation is missing a chain dependency check when the rule is added to the non-base chain. This patch fixes the problem by walking down the rules from the basechains, searching for either immediate or lookup expressions, then jumping to non-base chains and again walking down the rules to perform the expression validation, so we make sure the full ruleset graph is validated. This is done only once from the commit phase, in case of problem, we abort the transaction and perform fine grain validation for error reporting. This patch requires 003087911af2 ("netfilter: nfnetlink: allow commit to fail") to achieve this behaviour. This patch also adds a cleanup callback to nfnl batch interface to reset the validate state from the exit path. As a result of this patch, nf_tables_check_loops() doesn't use ->validate to check for loops, instead it just checks for immediate expressions.

2017-05-15netfilter: nf_tables: revisit chain/object refcounting from elementsPablo Neira Ayuso

Error: Could not process rule: Device or resource busy The existing code is not well-integrated into the commit phase protocol, since element deletions do not result in refcount decrement from the preparation phase. This results in bogus EBUSY errors like the one above. Two new functions come with this patch: * nft_set_elem_activate() function is used from the abort path, to restore the set element refcounting on objects that occurred from the preparation phase. * nft_set_elem_deactivate() that is called from nft_del_setelem() to decrement set element refcounting on objects from the preparation phase in the commit protocol. The nft_data_uninit() has been renamed to nft_data_release() since this function does not uninitialize any data store in the data register, instead just releases the references to objects. Moreover, a new function nft_data_hold() has been introduced to be used from nft_set_elem_activate().

Some basic expressions are built into nf_tables.ko, such as nft_cmp, nft_lookup, nft_range and so on. But these basic expressions' init routine is a little ugly, too many goto errX labels, and we forget to call nft_range_module_exit in the exit routine, although it is harmless.

Switch the nf_tables registers from 128 bit addressing to 32 bit addressing to support so called concatenations, where multiple values can be concatenated over multiple registers for O(1) exact matches of multiple dimensions using sets. The old register values are mapped to areas of 128 bits for compatibility. When dumping register numbers, values are expressed using the old values if they refer to the beginning of a 128 bit area for compatibility. To support concatenations, register loads of less than a full 32 bit value need to be padded. This mainly affects the payload and exthdr expressions, which both unconditionally zero the last word before copying the data.

2013-10-14netfilter: nf_tables: add compatibility layer for x_tablesPablo Neira Ayuso
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>
2013-10-14netfilter: nf_tables: expression ops overloadingPatrick McHardy
Split the expression ops into two parts and support overloading of the runtime expression ops based on the requested function through a ->select_ops() callback. This can be used to provide optimized implementations, for instance for loading small aligned amounts of data from the packet or inlining frequently used operations into the main evaluation loop.

2013-10-14netfilter: nf_tables: add netlink set APIPatrick McHardy
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>
2013-10-14netfilter: add nftablesPatrick McHardy
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>
