2010-05-11netfilter: xtables: deconstify struct xt_action_param for matchesJan Engelhardt1-1/+1
In future, layer-3 matches will be an xt module of their own, and need to set the fragoff and thoff fields. Adding more pointers would needlessy increase memory requirements (esp. so for 64-bit, where pointers are wider). Signed-off-by: Jan Engelhardt <jengelh@medozas.de>

2010-03-25netfilter: xtables: slightly better error reportingJan Engelhardt1-2/+4
When extended status codes are available, such as ENOMEM on failed allocations, or subsequent functions (e.g. nf_ct_get_l3proto), passing them up to userspace seems like a good idea compared to just always EINVAL. Signed-off-by: Jan Engelhardt <jengelh@medozas.de>
2010-03-25netfilter: xtables: change matches to return error codeJan Engelhardt1-2/+2
The following semantic patch does part of the transformation: // <smpl> @ rule1 @ struct xt_match ops; identifier check; @@ ops.checkentry = check; @@ identifier rule1.check; @@ check(...) { <... -return true; +return 0; ...> } @@ identifier rule1.check; @@ check(...) { <... -return false; +return -EINVAL; ...> } // </smpl> Signed-off-by: Jan Engelhardt <jengelh@medozas.de>
2010-03-25netfilter: xtables: change xt_match.checkentry return typeJan Engelhardt1-1/+1
Restore function signatures from bool to int so that we can report memory allocation failures or similar using -ENOMEM rather than always having to pass -EINVAL back. This semantic patch may not be too precise (checking for functions that use xt_mtchk_param rather than functions referenced by xt_match.checkentry), but reviewed, it produced the intended result. // <smpl> @@ type bool; identifier check, par; @@ -bool check +int check (struct xt_mtchk_param *par) { ... } // </smpl> Signed-off-by: Jan Engelhardt <jengelh@medozas.de>

2008-10-08netfilter: xtables: move extension arguments into compound structure (1/6)Jan Engelhardt1-5/+2
The function signatures for Xtables extensions have grown over time. It involves a lot of typing/replication, and also a bit of stack space even if they are not used. Realize an NFWS2008 idea and pack them into structs. The skb remains outside of the struct so gcc can continue to apply its optimizations. This patch does this for match extensions' match functions. A few ambiguities have also been addressed. The "offset" parameter for example has been renamed to "fragoff" (there are so many different offsets already) and "protoff" to "thoff" (there is more than just one protocol here, so clarify).

2006-03-28[NETFILTER]: Rename init functions.Andrew Morton1-4/+4
Every netfilter module uses `init' for its module_init() function and `fini' or `cleanup' for its module_exit() function. Problem is, this creates uninformative initcall_debug output and makes ctags rather useless. So go through and rename them all to $(filename)_init and $(filename)_fini.

2006-03-22[NETFILTER]: nf_conntrack: support for layer 3 protocol load on demandPablo Neira Ayuso1-0/+17
x_tables matches and targets that require nf_conntrack_ipv[4|6] to work don't have enough information to load on demand these modules. This patch introduces the following changes to solve this issue: o nf_ct_l3proto_try_module_get: try to load the layer 3 connection tracker module and increases the refcount. o nf_ct_l3proto_module put: drop the refcount of the module.

2006-03-20[NETFILTER] nf_conntrack: clean up to reduce size of 'struct nf_conn'Harald Welte1-3/+5
This patch moves all helper related data fields of 'struct nf_conn' into a separate structure 'struct nf_conn_help'. This new structure is only present in conntrack entries for which we actually have a helper loaded. Also, this patch cleans up the nf_conntrack 'features' mechanism to resemble what the original idea was: Just glue the feature-specific data structures at the end of 'struct nf_conn', and explicitly re-calculate the pointer to it when needed rather than keeping pointers around. Saves 20 bytes per conntrack on my x86_64 box. A non-helped conntrack is 276 bytes. We still need to save another 20 bytes in order to fit into to target of 256bytes.

2006-01-12[NETFILTER] x_tables: Abstraction layer for {ip,ip6,arp}_tablesHarald Welte1-0/+188
This monster-patch tries to do the best job for unifying the data structures and backend interfaces for the three evil clones ip_tables, ip6_tables and arp_tables. In an ideal world we would never have allowed this kind of copy+paste programming... but well, our world isn't (yet?) ideal. o introduce a new x_tables module o {ip,arp,ip6}_tables depend on this x_tables module o registration functions for tables, matches and targets are only wrappers around x_tables provided functions o all matches/targets that are used from ip_tables and ip6_tables are now implemented as xt_FOOBAR.c files and provide module aliases to ipt_FOOBAR and ip6t_FOOBAR o header files for xt_matches are in include/linux/netfilter/, include/linux/netfilter_{ipv4,ipv6} contains compatibility wrappers around the xt_FOOBAR.h headers Based on this patchset we're going to further unify the code, gradually getting rid of all the layer 3 specific assumptions.
