2014-06-16netfilter: nft_compat: call {target, match}->destroy() to cleanup entryPablo Neira Ayuso1-0/+18
Otherwise, the reference to external objects (eg. modules) are not released when the rules are removed. Signed-off-by: Pablo Neira Ayuso <pablo@netfilter.org>
2014-03-08netfilter: nf_tables: restore context for expression destructorsPatrick McHardy1-2/+2
In order to fix set destruction notifications and get rid of unnecessary members in private data structures, pass the context to expressions' destructor functions again. In order to do so, replace various members in the nft_rule_trans structure by the full context. Signed-off-by: Patrick McHardy <kaber@trash.net> Signed-off-by: Pablo Neira Ayuso <pablo@netfilter.org>
2014-01-07netfilter: nf_tables: add support for multi family tablesPatrick McHardy1-4/+4
Add support to register chains to multiple hooks for different address families for mixed IPv4/IPv6 tables. Signed-off-by: Patrick McHardy <kaber@trash.net>
2013-11-18netfilter: nft_compat: fix error path in nft_parse_compat()Pablo Neira Ayuso1-6/+13
The patch 0ca743a55991: "netfilter: nf_tables: add compatibility layer for x_tables", leads to the following Smatch warning: "net/netfilter/nft_compat.c:140 nft_parse_compat() warn: signedness bug returning '(-34)'" This nft_parse_compat function returns error codes but the return type is u8 so the error codes are transformed into small positive values. The callers don't check the return. Reported-by: Dan Carpenter <dan.carpenter@oracle.com> Signed-off-by: Pablo Neira Ayuso <pablo@netfilter.org>
2013-11-04netfilter: nft_compat: use _safe version of list_for_eachDan Carpenter1-4/+4
We need to use the _safe version of list_for_each_entry() here otherwise we have a use after free bug. Signed-off-by: Dan Carpenter <dan.carpenter@oracle.com> Signed-off-by: Pablo Neira Ayuso <pablo@netfilter.org>
2013-10-14netfilter: nf_tables: add compatibility layer for x_tablesPablo Neira Ayuso1-0/+768
This patch adds the x_tables compatibility layer. This allows you to use existing x_tables matches and targets from nf_tables. This compatibility later allows us to use existing matches/targets for features that are still missing in nf_tables. We can progressively replace them with native nf_tables extensions. It also provides the userspace compatibility software that allows you to express the rule-set using the iptables syntax but using the nf_tables kernel components. In order to get this compatibility layer working, I've done the following things: * add NFNL_SUBSYS_NFT_COMPAT: this new nfnetlink subsystem is used to query the x_tables match/target revision, so we don't need to use the native x_table getsockopt interface. * emulate xt structures: this required extending the struct nft_pktinfo to include the fragment offset, which is already obtained from ip[6]_tables and that is used by some matches/targets. * add support for default policy to base chains, required to emulate x_tables. * add NFTA_CHAIN_USE attribute to obtain the number of references to chains, required by x_tables emulation. * add chain packet/byte counters using per-cpu. * support 32-64 bits compat. For historical reasons, this patch includes the following patches that were posted in the netfilter-devel mailing list. From Pablo Neira Ayuso: * nf_tables: add default policy to base chains * netfilter: nf_tables: add NFTA_CHAIN_USE attribute * nf_tables: nft_compat: private data of target and matches in contiguous area * nf_tables: validate hooks for compat match/target * nf_tables: nft_compat: release cached matches/targets * nf_tables: x_tables support as a compile time option * nf_tables: fix alias for xtables over nftables module * nf_tables: add packet and byte counters per chain * nf_tables: fix per-chain counter stats if no counters are passed * nf_tables: don't bump chain stats * nf_tables: add protocol and flags for xtables over nf_tables * nf_tables: add ip[6]t_entry emulation * nf_tables: move specific layer 3 compat code to nf_tables_ipv[4|6] * nf_tables: support 32bits-64bits x_tables compat * nf_tables: fix compilation if CONFIG_COMPAT is disabled From Patrick McHardy: * nf_tables: move policy to struct nft_base_chain * nf_tables: send notifications for base chain policy changes From Alexander Primak: * nf_tables: remove the duplicate NF_INET_LOCAL_OUT From Nicolas Dichtel: * nf_tables: fix compilation when nf-netlink is a module Signed-off-by: Pablo Neira Ayuso <pablo@netfilter.org>
