2008-06-09netfilter: ip_tables: add iptables security table for mandatory access control rulesJames Morris1-0/+1
The following patch implements a new "security" table for iptables, so that MAC (SELinux etc.) networking rules can be managed separately to standard DAC rules. This is to help with distro integration of the new secmark-based network controls, per various previous discussions. The need for a separate table arises from the fact that existing tools and usage of iptables will likely clash with centralized MAC policy management. The SECMARK and CONNSECMARK targets will still be valid in the mangle table to prevent breakage of existing users.

2008-04-14[NETFILTER]: nf_nat: kill helper and seq_adjust hooksPatrick McHardy1-2/+0
Connection tracking helpers (specifically FTP) need to be called before NAT sequence numbers adjustments are performed to be able to compare them against previously seen ones. We've introduced two new hooks around 2.6.11 to maintain this ordering when NAT modules were changed to get called from conntrack helpers directly. The cost of netfilter hooks is quite high and sequence number adjustments are only rarely needed however. Add a RCU-protected sequence number adjustment function pointer and call it from IPv4 conntrack after calling the helper. Signed-off-by: Patrick McHardy <kaber@trash.net>
2008-01-28[NETFILTER]: Introduce NF_INET_ hook valuesPatrick McHardy1-1/+1
The IPv4 and IPv6 hook values are identical, yet some code tries to figure out the "correct" value by looking at the address family. Introduce NF_INET_* values for both IPv4 and IPv6. The old values are kept in a #ifndef __KERNEL__ section for userspace compatibility.

2006-10-04[NETFILTER]: add type parameter to ip_route_me_harderSimon Horman1-1/+1
By adding a type parameter to ip_route_me_harder() the expensive call to inet_addr_type() can be avoided in some cases. A followup patch where ip_route_me_harder() is called from within ip_vs_out() is one such example.

2006-04-09[NETFILTER]: Add address family specific checksum helpersPatrick McHardy1-0/+2
Add checksum operation which takes care of verifying the checksum and dealing with HW checksum errors and avoids multiple checksum operations by setting ip_summed to CHECKSUM_UNNECESSARY after successful verification.

2006-02-15[NETFILTER]: Fix xfrm lookup after SNATPatrick McHardy1-1/+1
To find out if a packet needs to be handled by IPsec after SNAT, packets are currently rerouted in POST_ROUTING and a new xfrm lookup is done. This breaks SNAT of non-unicast packets to non-local addresses because the packet is routed as incoming packet and no neighbour entry is bound to the dst_entry. In general, it seems to be a bad idea to replace the dst_entry after the packet was already sent to the output routine because its state might not match what's expected. This patch changes the xfrm lookup in POST_ROUTING to re-use the original dst_entry without routing the packet again. This means no policy routing can be used for transport mode transforms (which keep the original route) when packets are SNATed to match the policy, but it looks like the best we can do for now.

2005-08-29[NETFILTER]: Rename skb_ip_make_writable() to skb_make_writable()Harald Welte1-5/+0
There is nothing IPv4-specific in it. In fact, it was already used by IPv6, too... Upcoming nfnetlink_queue code will use it for any kind of packet. Signed-off-by: Harald Welte <laforge@netfilter.org> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2005-08-29[NETFILTER]: reduce netfilter sk_buff enlargementHarald Welte1-0/+3
As discussed at netconf'05, we're trying to save every bit in sk_buff. The patch below makes sk_buff 8 bytes smaller. I did some basic testing on my notebook and it seems to work. The only real in-tree user of nfcache was IPVS, who only needs a single bit. Unfortunately I couldn't find some other free bit in sk_buff to stuff that bit into, so I introduced a separate field for them. Maybe the IPVS guys can resolve that to further save space. Initially I wanted to shrink pkt_type to three bits (PACKET_HOST and alike are only 6 values defined), but unfortunately the bluetooth code overloads pkt_type :( The conntrack-event-api (out-of-tree) uses nfcache, but Rusty just came up with a way how to do it without any skb fields, so it's safe to remove it. - remove all never-implemented 'nfcache' code - don't have ipvs code abuse 'nfcache' field. currently get's their own compile-conditional skb->ipvs_property field. IPVS maintainers can decide to move this bit elswhere, but nfcache needs to die. - remove skb->nfcache field to save 4 bytes - move skb->nfctinfo into three unused bits to save further 4 bytes Signed-off-by: Harald Welte <laforge@netfilter.org> Signed-off-by: David S.

2005-04-24[NETFILTER]: Fix NAT sequence number adjustmentPatrick McHardy1-0/+3
The NAT changes in 2.6.11 changed the position where helpers are called and perform packet mangling. Before 2.6.11, a NAT helper was called before the packet was NATed and had its sequence number adjusted. Since 2.6.11, the helpers get packets with already adjusted sequence numbers. This breaks sequence number adjustment, adjust_tcp_sequence() needs the original sequence number to determine whether a packet was a retransmission and to store it for further corrections. It can't be reconstructed without more information than available, so this patch restores the old order by calling helpers from a new conntrack hook two priorities below ip_conntrack_confirm() and adjusting the sequence number from a new NAT hook one priority below ip_conntrack_confirm().

2005-04-16Linux-2.6.12-rc2Linus Torvalds1-0/+90
Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history, even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about 3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good infrastructure for it. Let it rip!
