netfilter: HAVE_JUMP_LABEL instead of CONFIG_JUMP_LABEL

2014-08-25T08:45:28Z

Use HAVE_JUMP_LABEL as elsewhere in the kernel to ensure that the toolchain has the required support in addition to CONFIG_JUMP_LABEL being set. Signed-off-by: Zhouyi Zhou Reviewed-by: Florian Westphal Signed-off-by: Pablo Neira Ayuso

netfilter: add nftables

2013-10-14T15:15:48Z

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 Signed-off-by: Pablo Neira Ayuso

netfilter: pass hook ops to hookfn

2013-10-14T09:29:31Z

Pass the hook ops to the hookfn to allow for generic hook functions. This change is required by nf_tables. Signed-off-by: Patrick McHardy Signed-off-by: Pablo Neira Ayuso

netfilter: Remove extern from function prototypes

2013-09-26T21:48:15Z

There are a mix of function prototypes with and without extern in the kernel sources. Standardize on not using extern for function prototypes. Function prototypes don't need to be written with extern. extern is assumed by the compiler. Its use is as unnecessary as using auto to declare automatic/local variables in a block.

netfilter: nf_conntrack: make sequence number adjustments usuable without NAT

2013-08-27T22:26:48Z

Split out sequence number adjustments from NAT and move them to the conntrack core to make them usable for SYN proxying. The sequence number adjustment information is moved to a seperate extend. The extend is added to new conntracks when a NAT mapping is set up for a connection using a helper. As a side effect, this saves 24 bytes per connection with NAT in the common case that a connection does not have a helper assigned.

netfilter: nfnetlink_queue: allow to attach expectations to conntracks

2013-08-13T14:32:10Z

This patch adds the capability to attach expectations via nfnetlink_queue. This is required by conntrack helpers that trigger expectations based on the first packet seen like the TFTP and the DHCPv6 user-space helpers. Signed-off-by: Pablo Neira Ayuso

netfilter: nf_nat: change sequence number adjustments to 32 bits

2013-07-31T17:54:51Z

Using 16 bits is too small, when many adjustments happen the offsets might overflow and break the connection. Signed-off-by: Patrick McHardy Signed-off-by: Pablo Neira Ayuso
