In 34666d4 ("netfilter: bridge: move br_netfilter out of the core"), the bridge netfilter code has been modularized. Use IS_ENABLED instead of ifdef to cover the module case.

2014-03-27core, nfqueue, openvswitch: Orphan frags in skb_zerocopy and handle errorsZoltan Kiss1-2/+7
skb_zerocopy can copy elements of the frags array between skbs, but it doesn't orphan them. Also, it doesn't handle errors, so this patch takes care of that as well, and modify the callers accordingly. skb_tx_error() is also added to the callers so they will signal the failed delivery towards the creator of the skb.

Jesse Gross says: ==================== [GIT net-next] Open vSwitch Open vSwitch changes for net-next/3.14. Highlights are: * Performance improvements in the mechanism to get packets to userspace using memory mapped netlink and skb zero copy where appropriate. * Per-cpu flow stats in situations where flows are likely to be shared across CPUs. Standard flow stats are used in other situations to save memory and allocation time. * A handful of code cleanups and rationalization. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S.

2013-12-21netfilter: nfnetlink_queue: enable UID/GID socket info retrievalValentina Giusti1-0/+34
Thanks to commits 41063e9 (ipv4: Early TCP socket demux) and 421b388 (udp: ipv4: Add udp early demux) it is now possible to parse UID and GID socket info also for incoming TCP and UDP connections. Having this info available, it is convenient to let NFQUEUE parse it in order to improve and refine the traffic analysis in userspace.

The common case is that TCP/IP checksums have already been verified, e.g. by hardware (rx checksum offload), or conntrack. Userspace can use this flag to determine when the checksum has not been validated yet. If the flag is set, this doesn't necessarily mean that the packet has an invalid checksum, e.g. if NIC doesn't support rx checksum. Userspace that sucessfully enabled NFQA_CFG_F_GSO queue feature flag can infer that IP/TCP checksum has already been validated if either the SKB_INFO attribute is not present or the NFQA_SKB_CSUM_NOTVERIFIED flag is unset.

Conflicts: drivers/net/wireless/ath/ath9k/Kconfig drivers/net/xen-netback/netback.c net/batman-adv/bat_iv_ogm.c net/wireless/nl80211.c The ath9k Kconfig conflict was a change of a Kconfig option name right next to the deletion of another option. The xen-netback conflict was overlapping changes involving the handling of the notify list in xen_netbk_rx_action(). Batman conflict resolution provided by Antonio Quartulli, basically keep everything in both conflict hunks. The nl80211 conflict is a little more involved. In 'net' we added a dynamic memory allocation to nl80211_dump_wiphy() to fix a race that Linus reported. Meanwhile in 'net-next' the handlers were converted to use pre and post doit handlers which use a flag to determine whether to hold the RTNL mutex around the operation. However, the dump handlers to not use this logic. Instead they have to explicitly do the locking. There were apparent bugs in the conversion of nl80211_dump_wiphy() in that we were not dropping the RTNL mutex in all the return paths, and it seems we very much should be doing so. So I fixed that whilst handling the overlapping changes. To simplify the initial returns, I take the RTNL mutex after we try to allocate 'tb'. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

2013-04-29netfilter: move skb_gso_segment into nfnetlink_queue moduleFlorian Westphal1-17/+137
skb_gso_segment is expensive, so it would be nice if we could avoid it in the future. However, userspace needs to be prepared to receive larger-than-mtu-packets (which will also have incorrect l3/l4 checksums), so we cannot simply remove it. The plan is to add a per-queue feature flag that userspace can set when binding the queue. The problem is that in nf_queue, we only have a queue number, not the queue context/configuration settings. This patch should have no impact other than the skb_gso_segment call now being in a function that has access to the queue config data. A new size attribute in nf_queue_entry is needed so nfnetlink_queue can duplicate the entry of the gso skb when segmenting the skb while also copying the route key. The follow up patch adds switch to disable skb_gso_segment when queue config says so. Signed-off-by: Florian Westphal <fw@strlen.de> Signed-off-by: Pablo Neira Ayuso <pablo@netfilter.org>

2013-02-27hlist: drop the node parameter from iteratorsSasha Levin1-6/+4
I'm not sure why, but the hlist for each entry iterators were conceived list_for_each_entry(pos, head, member) The hlist ones were greedy and wanted an extra parameter: hlist_for_each_entry(tpos, pos, head, member) Why did they need an extra pos parameter? I'm not quite sure. Not only they don't really need it, it also prevents the iterator from looking exactly like the list iterator, which is unfortunate. Besides the semantic patch, there was some manual work required: - Fix up the actual hlist iterators in linux/list.h - Fix up the declaration of other iterators based on the hlist ones. - A very small amount of places were using the 'node' parameter, this was modified to use 'obj->member' instead. - Coccinelle didn't handle the hlist_for_each_entry_safe iterator properly, so those had to be fixed up manually.

This patch adds the NFQA_CAP_LEN attribute that allows us to know what is the real packet size from user-space (even if we decided to retrieve just a few bytes from the packet instead of all of it). Security software that inspects packets should always check for this new attribute to make sure that it is inspecting the entire packet.

2012-09-24netfilter: nfnetlink_queue: fix maximum packet length to userspacePablo Neira Ayuso1-3/+7
The packets that we send via NFQUEUE are encapsulated in the NFQA_PAYLOAD attribute. The length of the packet in userspace is obtained via attr->nla_len field. This field contains the size of the Netlink attribute header plus the packet length. If the maximum packet length is specified, ie. 65535 bytes, and packets in the range of (65531,65535] are sent to userspace, the attr->nla_len overflows and it reports bogus lengths to the application. To fix this, this patch limits the maximum packet length to 65531 bytes. If larger packet length is specified, the packet that we send to user-space is truncated to 65531 bytes. To support 65535 bytes packets, we have to revisit the idea of the 32-bits Netlink attribute length.

2012-06-19netfilter: nfnetlink_queue: fix compilation with NF_CONNTRACK disabledPablo Neira Ayuso1-0/+1090
In "9cb0176 netfilter: add glue code to integrate nfnetlink_queue and ctnetlink" the compilation with NF_CONNTRACK disabled is broken. This patch fixes this issue. I have moved the conntrack part into nfnetlink_queue_ct.c to avoid peppering the entire nfnetlink_queue.c code with ifdefs. I also needed to rename nfnetlink_queue.c to nfnetlink_queue_pkt.c to update the net/netfilter/Makefile to support conditional compilation of the conntrack integration. This patch also adds CONFIG_NETFILTER_QUEUE_CT in case you want to explicitly disable the integration between nf_conntrack and nfnetlink_queue.
