2017-03-13netfilter: nf_tables: fix mismatch in big-endian systemLiping Zhang
Currently, there are two different methods to store an u16 integer to the u32 data register. For example: u32 *dest = &regs->data[priv->dreg]; 1. *dest = 0; *(u16 *) dest = val_u16; 2. *dest = val_u16; For method 1, the u16 value will be stored like this, either in big-endian or little-endian system: 0 15 31 +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ | Value | 0 | +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ For method 2, in little-endian system, the u16 value will be the same as listed above. But in big-endian system, the u16 value will be stored like this: 0 15 31 +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ | 0 | Value | +-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+ So later we use "memcmp(&regs->data[priv->sreg], data, 2);" to do compare in nft_cmp, nft_lookup expr ..., method 2 will get the wrong result in big-endian system, as 0~15 bits will always be zero. For the similar reason, when loading an u16 value from the u32 data register, we should use "*(u16 *) sreg;" instead of "(u16)*sreg;", the 2nd method will get the wrong value in the big-endian system. So introduce some wrapper functions to store/load an u8 or u16 integer to/from the u32 data register, and use them in the right place.

2017-03-06netfilter: nf_tables: validate the expr explicitly after init successfullyLiping Zhang
When we want to validate the expr's dependency or hooks, we must do two things to accomplish it. First, write a X_validate callback function and point ->validate to it. Second, call X_validate in init routine. This is very common, such as fib, nat, reject expr and so on ... It is a little ugly, since we will call X_validate in the expr's init routine, it's better to do it in nf_tables_newexpr. So we can avoid to do this again and again. After doing this, the second step listed above is not useful anymore, remove them now. Patch was tested by nftables/tests/py/nft-test.py and nftables/tests/shell/run-tests.sh.

2016-09-12netfilter: nf_tables: ensure proper initialization of nft_pktinfo fieldsPablo Neira Ayuso
This patch introduces nft_set_pktinfo_unspec() that ensures proper initialization all of pktinfo fields for non-IP traffic. This is used by the bridge, netdev and arp families. This new function relies on nft_set_pktinfo_proto_unspec() to set a new tprot_set field that indicates if transport protocol information is available. Remain fields are zeroed. The meta expression has been also updated to check to tprot_set in first place given that zero is a valid tprot value. Even a handcrafted packet may come with the IPPROTO_RAW (255) protocol number so we can't rely on this value as tprot unset.

2015-12-18netfilter: meta: add support for setting skb->pkttypeFlorian Westphal
This allows to redirect bridged packets to local machine: ether type ip ether daddr set aa:53:08:12:34:56 meta pkttype set unicast Without 'set unicast', ip stack discards PACKET_OTHERHOST skbs. It is also useful to add support for a '-m cluster like' nft rule (where switch floods packets to several nodes, and each cluster node node processes a subset of packets for load distribution). Mangling is restricted to HOST/OTHER/BROAD/MULTICAST, i.e. you cannot set skb->pkt_type to PACKET_KERNEL or change PACKET_LOOPBACK to PACKET_HOST.

Only needed when meta nftrace rule(s) were added. The assumption is that no such rules are active, so the call to nft_trace_init is "never" needed. When nftrace rules are active, we always call the nft_trace_* functions, but will only send netlink messages when all of the following are true: - traceinfo structure was initialised - skb->nf_trace == 1 - at least one subscriber to trace group. Adding an extra conditional (static_branch ... && skb->nf_trace) nft_trace_init( ..) Is possible but results in a larger nft_do_chain footprint.

This is to prepare for overloading the fields with a cgroup pointer. This patch mostly performs equivalent conversions but the followings are noteworthy. * Equality test before updating classid is removed from sock_update_classid(). This shouldn't make any noticeable difference and a similar test will be implemented on the helper side later. * sock_update_netprioidx() now takes struct sock_cgroup_data and can be moved to netprio_cgroup.h without causing include dependency loop.

2015-04-13netfilter: nf_tables: switch registers to 32 bit addressingPatrick McHardy
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. Userspace fully passes the testsuite using both old and new register addressing. 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>
