2009-03-25netfilter: ctnetlink: add callbacks to the per-proto nlattrsHolger Eitzenberger1-0/+7
There is added a single callback for the l3 proto helper. The two callbacks for the l4 protos are necessary because of the general structure of a ctnetlink event, which is in short: CTA_TUPLE_ORIG <l3/l4-proto-attributes> CTA_TUPLE_REPLY <l3/l4-proto-attributes> CTA_ID ... CTA_PROTOINFO <l4-proto-attributes> CTA_TUPLE_MASTER <l3/l4-proto-attributes> Therefore the formular is size := sizeof(generic-nlas) + 3 * sizeof(tuple_nlas) + sizeof(protoinfo_nlas) Some of the NLAs are optional, e. g. CTA_TUPLE_MASTER, which is only set if it's an expected connection. But the number of optional NLAs is small enough to prevent netlink_trim() from reallocating if calculated properly.

2008-01-28[NETFILTER]: Use the ctl paths instead of hand-made analoguePavel Emelyanov1-1/+1
The conntracks subsystem has a similar infrastructure to maintain ctl_paths, but since we already have it on the generic level, I think it's OK to switch to using it. So, basically, this patch just replaces the ctl_table-s with ctl_path-s, nf_register_sysctl_table with register_sysctl_paths() and removes no longer needed code. After this the net/netfilter/nf_sysctl.c file contains the paths only. Signed-off-by: Pavel Emelyanov <xemul@openvz.org> Acked-by: Patrick McHardy <kaber@trash.net> Signed-off-by: David S.

2007-07-14[NETFILTER]: nf_conntrack: make l3proto->prepare() generic and renames itYasuyuki Kozakai1-3/+3
The icmp[v6] l4proto modules parse headers in ICMP[v6] error to get tuple. But they have to find the offset to transport protocol header before that. Their processings are almost same as prepare() of l3proto modules. This makes prepare() more generic to simplify icmp[v6] l4proto module later.

No caller checks the return value, and since its usually called within the module unload path there's nothing a module could do about errors anyway, so BUG on invalid conditions and return void. Signed-off-by: Patrick McHardy <kaber@trash.net> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

2005-11-09[NETFILTER]: Add nf_conntrack subsystem.Yasuyuki Kozakai1-0/+93
The existing connection tracking subsystem in netfilter can only handle ipv4. There were basically two choices present to add connection tracking support for ipv6. We could either duplicate all of the ipv4 connection tracking code into an ipv6 counterpart, or (the choice taken by these patches) we could design a generic layer that could handle both ipv4 and ipv6 and thus requiring only one sub-protocol (TCP, UDP, etc.) connection tracking helper module to be written. In fact nf_conntrack is capable of working with any layer 3 protocol. The existing ipv4 specific conntrack code could also not deal with the pecularities of doing connection tracking on ipv6, which is also cured here. For example, these issues include: 1) ICMPv6 handling, which is used for neighbour discovery in ipv6 thus some messages such as these should not participate in connection tracking since effectively they are like ARP messages 2) fragmentation must be handled differently in ipv6, because the simplistic "defrag, connection track and NAT, refrag" (which the existing ipv4 connection tracking does) approach simply isn't feasible in ipv6 3) ipv6 extension header parsing must occur at the correct spots before and after connection tracking decisions, and there were no provisions for this in the existing connection tracking design 4) ipv6 has no need for stateful NAT The ipv4 specific conntrack layer is kept around, until all of the ipv4 specific conntrack helpers are ported over to nf_conntrack and it is feature complete. Once that occurs, the old conntrack stuff will get placed into the feature-removal-schedule and we will fully kill it off 6 months later.
