2015-04-13netfilter: nft_dynset: dynamic stateful expression instantiationPatrick McHardy1-4/+50
Support instantiating stateful expressions based on a template that are associated with dynamically created set entries. The expressions are evaluated when adding or updating the set element. This allows to maintain per flow state using the existing set infrastructure and expression types, with arbitrary definitions of a flow. Usage is currently restricted to anonymous sets, meaning only a single binding can exist, since the desired semantics of multiple independant bindings haven't been defined so far. Examples (userspace syntax is still WIP): 1. Limit the rate of new SSH connections per host, similar to iptables hashlimit: flow ip saddr timeout 60s \ limit 10/second \ accept 2. Account network traffic between each set of /24 networks: flow ip saddr & 255.255.255.0 . ip daddr & 255.255.255.0 \ counter 3. Account traffic to each host per user: flow skuid . ip daddr \ counter 4. Account traffic for each combination of source address and TCP flags: flow ip saddr . tcp flags \ counter The resulting set content after a Xmas-scan look like this: { 192.168.122.1 . fin | psh | urg : counter packets 1001 bytes 40040, 192.168.122.1 . ack : counter packets 74 bytes 3848, 192.168.122.1 . psh | ack : counter packets 35 bytes 3144 } Signed-off-by: Patrick McHardy <kaber@trash.net> Signed-off-by: Pablo Neira Ayuso <pablo@netfilter.org>
2015-04-13netfilter: nf_tables: add register parsing/dumping helpersPatrick McHardy1-4/+4
Add helper functions to parse and dump register values in netlink attributes. These helpers will later be changed to take care of translation between the old 128 bit and the new 32 bit register numbers.

2015-04-13netfilter: nf_tables: get rid of NFT_REG_VERDICT usagePatrick McHardy1-6/+7
Replace the array of registers passed to expressions by a struct nft_regs, containing the verdict as a seperate member, which aliases to the NFT_REG_VERDICT register. This is needed to seperate the verdict from the data registers completely, so their size can be changed.

2015-04-13netfilter: nf_tables: introduce nft_validate_register_load()Patrick McHardy1-2/+2
Change nft_validate_input_register() to not only validate the input register number, but also the length of the load, and rename it to nft_validate_register_load() to reflect that change. Signed-off-by: Patrick McHardy <kaber@trash.net> Signed-off-by: Pablo Neira Ayuso <pablo@netfilter.org>
2015-04-08netfilter: nf_tables: add support for dynamic set updatesPatrick McHardy1-0/+218
Add a new "dynset" expression for dynamic set updates. A new set op ->update() is added which, for non existant elements, invokes an initialization callback and inserts the new element. For both new or existing elements the extenstion pointer is returned to the caller to optionally perform timer updates or other actions. Element removal is not supported so far, however that seems to be a rather exotic need and can be added later on.
