====================
nf-next pull request

The following patchset contains Netfilter/IPVS updates for your
net-next tree. Regarding nf_tables, most updates focus on consolidating
the NAT infrastructure and adding support for masquerading. More
specifically, they are:

1) use __u8 instead of u_int8_t in arptables header, from
   Mike Frysinger.

2) Add support to match by skb->pkttype to the meta expression, from
   Ana Rey.

3) Add support to match by cpu to the meta expression, also from
   Ana Rey.

4) A smatch warning about IPSET_ATTR_MARKMASK validation, patch from
   Vytas Dauksa.

5) Fix netnet and netportnet hash types the range support for IPv4,
   from Sergey Popovich.

6) Fix missing-field-initializer warnings resolved, from Mark Rustad.

7) Dan Carperter reported possible integer overflows in ipset, from
   Jozsef Kadlecsick.

8) Filter out accounting objects in nfacct by type, so you can
   selectively reset quotas, from Alexey Perevalov.

9) Move specific NAT IPv4 functions to the core so x_tables and
   nf_tables can share the same NAT IPv4 engine.

10) Use the new NAT IPv4 functions from nft_chain_nat_ipv4.

11) Move specific NAT IPv6 functions to the core so x_tables and
    nf_tables can share the same NAT IPv4 engine.

12) Use the new NAT IPv6 functions from nft_chain_nat_ipv6.

13) Refactor code to add nft_delrule(), which can be reused in the
    enhancement of the NFT_MSG_DELTABLE to remove a table and its
    content, from Arturo Borrero.

14) Add a helper function to unregister chain hooks, from
    Arturo Borrero.

15) A cleanup to rename to nft_delrule_by_chain for consistency with
    the new nft_*() functions, also from Arturo.

16) Add support to match devgroup to the meta expression, from Ana Rey.

17) Reduce stack usage for IPVS socket option, from Julian Anastasov.

18) Remove unnecessary textsearch state initialization in xt_string,
    from Bojan Prtvar.

19) Add several helper functions to nf_tables, more work to prepare
    the enhancement of NFT_MSG_DELTABLE, again from Arturo Borrero.

20) Enhance NFT_MSG_DELTABLE to delete a table and its content, from
    Arturo Borrero.

21) Support NAT flags in the nat expression to indicate the flavour,
    eg. random fully, from Arturo.

22) Add missing audit code to ebtables when replacing tables, from
    Nicolas Dichtel.

23) Generalize the IPv4 masquerading code to allow its re-use from
    nf_tables, from Arturo.

24) Generalize the IPv6 masquerading code, also from Arturo.

25) Add the new masq expression to support IPv4/IPv6 masquerading
    from nf_tables, also from Arturo.

Pablo Neira Ayuso 8993cf8edf netfilter: move NAT Kconfig switches out of the iptables scope
Currently, the NAT configs depend on iptables and ip6tables. However,
users should be capable of enabling NAT for nft without having to
switch on iptables.

Fix this by adding new specific IP_NF_NAT and IP6_NF_NAT config
switches for iptables and ip6tables NAT support. I have also moved
the original NF_NAT_IPV4 and NF_NAT_IPV6 configs out of the scope
of iptables to make them independent of it.

This patch also adds NETFILTER_XT_NAT which selects the xt_nat
combo that provides snat/dnat for iptables. We cannot use NF_NAT
anymore since nf_tables can select this.

Pablo Neira Ayuso 83e96d443b netfilter: log: split family specific code to nf_log_{ip,ip6,common}.c files
The plain text logging is currently embedded into the xt_LOG target.
In order to be able to use the plain text logging from nft_log, as a
first step, this patch moves the family specific code to the following
files and Kconfig symbols:

1) net/ipv4/netfilter/nf_log_ip.c: CONFIG_NF_LOG_IPV4
2) net/ipv6/netfilter/nf_log_ip6.c: CONFIG_NF_LOG_IPV6
3) net/netfilter/nf_log_common.c: CONFIG_NF_LOG_COMMON

These new modules will be required by xt_LOG and nft_log. This patch
is based on original patch from Arturo Borrero Gonzalez.

James Chapman 74f77a6b2b netfilter: introduce l2tp match extension
Introduce an xtables add-on for matching L2TP packets. Supports L2TPv2
and L2TPv3 over IPv4 and IPv6. As well as filtering on L2TP tunnel-id
and session-id, the filtering decision can also include the L2TP
packet type (control or data), protocol version (2 or 3) and
encapsulation type (UDP or IP).

The most common use for this will likely be to filter L2TP data
packets of individual L2TP tunnels or sessions. While a u32 match can
be used, the L2TP protocol headers are such that field offsets differ
depending on bits set in the header, making rules for matching generic
L2TP connections cumbersome. This match extension takes care of all
that.

Daniel Borkmann 82a37132f3 netfilter: x_tables: lightweight process control group matching
It would be useful e.g. in a server or desktop environment to have
a facility in the notion of fine-grained "per application" or "per
application group" firewall policies. Probably, users in the mobile,
embedded area (e.g. Android based) with different security policy
requirements for application groups could have great benefit from
that as well. For example, with a little bit of configuration effort,
an admin could whitelist well-known applications, and thus block
otherwise unwanted "hard-to-track" applications like [1] from a
user's machine. Blocking is just one example, but it is not limited
to that, meaning we can have much different scenarios/policies that
netfilter allows us than just blocking, e.g. fine grained settings
where applications are allowed to connect/send traffic to, application
traffic marking/conntracking, application-specific packet mangling,
and so on.

Implementation of PID-based matching would not be appropriate
as they frequently change, and child tracking would make that
even more complex and ugly. Cgroups would be a perfect candidate
for accomplishing that as they associate a set of tasks with a
set of parameters for one or more subsystems, in our case the
netfilter subsystem, which, of course, can be combined with other
cgroup subsystems into something more complex if needed.

As mentioned, to overcome this constraint, such processes could
be placed into one or multiple cgroups where different fine-grained
rules can be defined depending on the application scenario, while
e.g. everything else that is not part of that could be dropped (or
vice versa), thus making life harder for unwanted processes to
communicate to the outside world. So, we make use of cgroups here
to track jobs and limit their resources in terms of iptables
policies; in other words, limiting, tracking, etc what they are
allowed to communicate.

In our case we're working on outgoing traffic based on which local
socket that originated from. Also, one doesn't even need to have
an a-prio knowledge of the application internals regarding their
particular use of ports or protocols. Matching is *extremly*
lightweight as we just test for the sk_classid marker of sockets,
originating from net_cls. net_cls and netfilter do not contradict
each other; in fact, each construct can live as standalone or they
can be used in combination with each other, which is perfectly fine,
plus it serves Tejun's requirement to not introduce a new cgroups
subsystem. Through this, we result in a very minimal and efficient
module, and don't add anything except netfilter code.

One possible, minimal usage example (many other iptables options
can be applied obviously):

 1) Configuring cgroups if not already done, e.g.:

  mkdir /sys/fs/cgroup/net_cls
  mount -t cgroup -o net_cls net_cls /sys/fs/cgroup/net_cls
  mkdir /sys/fs/cgroup/net_cls/0
  echo 1 > /sys/fs/cgroup/net_cls/0/net_cls.classid
  (resp. a real flow handle id for tc)

 2) Configuring netfilter (iptables-nftables), e.g.:

  iptables -A OUTPUT -m cgroup ! --cgroup 1 -j DROP

 3) Running applications, e.g.:

  ping 208.67.222.222  <pid:1799>
  echo 1799 > /sys/fs/cgroup/net_cls/0/tasks
  64 bytes from 208.67.222.222: icmp_seq=44 ttl=49 time=11.9 ms
  [...]
  ping 208.67.220.220  <pid:1804>
  ping: sendmsg: Operation not permitted
  [...]
  echo 1804 > /sys/fs/cgroup/net_cls/0/tasks
  64 bytes from 208.67.220.220: icmp_seq=89 ttl=56 time=19.0 ms
  [...]

Of course, real-world deployments would make use of cgroups user
space toolsuite, or own custom policy daemons dynamically moving
applications from/to various cgroups.

Eric Leblond bee11dc78f netfilter: nft_reject: support for IPv6 and TCP reset
This patch moves nft_reject_ipv4 to nft_reject and adds support
for IPv6 protocol. This patch uses functions included in nf_reject.h
to implement reject by TCP reset.

The code has to be build as a module if NF_TABLES_IPV6 is also a
module to avoid compilation error due to usage of IPv6 functions.
This has been done in Kconfig by using the construct:

 depends on NF_TABLES_IPV6 || !NF_TABLES_IPV6

This seems a bit weird in terms of syntax but works perfectly.

Pablo Neira Ayuso 0ca743a559 netfilter: nf_tables: add compatibility layer for x_tables
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

Patrick McHardy 20a69341f2 netfilter: nf_tables: add netlink set API
This patch adds the new netlink API for maintaining nf_tables sets
independently of the ruleset. The API supports the following operations:

- creation of sets
- deletion of sets
- querying of specific sets
- dumping of all sets

- addition of set elements
- removal of set elements
- dumping of all set elements

Sets are identified by name, each table defines an individual namespace.
The name of a set may be allocated automatically, this is mostly useful
in combination with the NFT_SET_ANONYMOUS flag, which destroys a set
automatically once the last reference has been released.

Sets can be marked constant, meaning they're not allowed to change while
linked to a rule. This allows to perform lockless operation for set
types that would otherwise require locking.

Additionally, if the implementation supports it, sets can (as before) be
used as maps, associating a data value with each key (or range), by
specifying the NFT_SET_MAP flag and can be used for interval queries by
specifying the NFT_SET_INTERVAL flag.

Set elements are added and removed incrementally. All element operations
support batching, reducing netlink message and set lookup overhead.

The old "set" and "hash" expressions are replaced by a generic "lookup"
expression, which binds to the specified set. Userspace is not aware
of the actual set implementation used by the kernel anymore, all
configuration options are generic.

Currently the implementation selection logic is largely missing and the
kernel will simply use the first registered implementation supporting the
requested operation. Eventually, the plan is to have userspace supply a
description of the data characteristics and select the implementation
based on expected performance and memory use.

This patch includes the new 'lookup' expression to look up for element
matching in the set.

This patch includes kernel-doc descriptions for this set API and it
also includes the following fixes.

From Patrick McHardy:
* netfilter: nf_tables: fix set element data type in dumps
* netfilter: nf_tables: fix indentation of struct nft_set_elem comments
* netfilter: nf_tables: fix oops in nft_validate_data_load()
* netfilter: nf_tables: fix oops while listing sets of built-in tables

Patrick McHardy 96518518cc netfilter: add nftables
This patch adds nftables which is the intended successor of iptables.
This packet filtering framework reuses the existing netfilter hooks,
the connection tracking system, the NAT subsystem, the transparent
proxying engine, the logging infrastructure and the userspace packet
queueing facilities.

In a nutshell, nftables provides a pseudo-state machine with 4 general
purpose registers of 128 bits and 1 specific purpose register to store
verdicts. This pseudo-machine comes with an extensible instruction set,
a.k.a. "expressions" in the nftables jargon. The expressions included
in this patch provide the basic functionality, they are:

* bitwise: to perform bitwise operations.
* byteorder: to change from host/network endianess.
* cmp: to compare data with the content of the registers.
* counter: to enable counters on rules.
* ct: to store conntrack keys into register.
* exthdr: to match IPv6 extension headers.
* immediate: to load data into registers.
* limit: to limit matching based on packet rate.
* log: to log packets.
* meta: to match metainformation that usually comes with the skbuff.
* nat: to perform Network Address Translation.
* payload: to fetch data from the packet payload and store it into
  registers.
* reject (IPv4 only): to explicitly close connection, eg. TCP RST.

Using this instruction-set, the userspace utility 'nft' can transform
the rules expressed in human-readable text representation (using a
new syntax, inspired by tcpdump) to nftables bytecode.

nftables also inherits the table, chain and rule objects from
iptables, but in a more configurable way, and it also includes the
original datatype-agnostic set infrastructure with mapping support.
This set infrastructure is enhanced in the follow up patch (netfilter:
nf_tables: add netlink set API).

This patch includes the following components:

* the netlink API: net/netfilter/nf_tables_api.c and
  include/uapi/netfilter/nf_tables.h
* the packet filter core: net/netfilter/nf_tables_core.c
* the expressions (described above): net/netfilter/nft_*.c
* the filter tables: arp, IPv4, IPv6 and bridge:
  net/ipv4/netfilter/nf_tables_ipv4.c
  net/ipv6/netfilter/nf_tables_ipv6.c
  net/ipv4/netfilter/nf_tables_arp.c
  net/bridge/netfilter/nf_tables_bridge.c
* the NAT table (IPv4 only):
  net/ipv4/netfilter/nf_table_nat_ipv4.c
* the route table (similar to mangle):
  net/ipv4/netfilter/nf_table_route_ipv4.c
  net/ipv6/netfilter/nf_table_route_ipv6.c
* internal definitions under:
  include/net/netfilter/nf_tables.h
  include/net/netfilter/nf_tables_core.h
* It also includes an skeleton expression:
  net/netfilter/nft_expr_template.c
  and the preliminary implementation of the meta target
  net/netfilter/nft_meta_target.c

It also includes a change in struct nf_hook_ops to add a new
pointer to store private data to the hook, that is used to store
the rule list per chain.

This patch is based on the patch from Patrick McHardy, plus merged
accumulated cleanups, fixes and small enhancements to the nftables
code that has been done since 2009, which are:

Patrick McHardy 48b1de4c11 netfilter: add SYNPROXY core/target
Add a SYNPROXY for netfilter. The code is split into two parts, the synproxy
core with common functions and an address family specific target.

The SYNPROXY receives the connection request from the client, responds with
a SYN/ACK containing a SYN cookie and announcing a zero window and checks
whether the final ACK from the client contains a valid cookie.

It then establishes a connection to the original destination and, if
successful, sends a window update to the client with the window size
announced by the server.

Support for timestamps, SACK, window scaling and MSS options can be
statically configured as target parameters if the features of the server
are known. If timestamps are used, the timestamp value sent back to
the client in the SYN/ACK will be different from the real timestamp of
the server. In order to now break PAWS, the timestamps are translated in
the direction server->client.

Split out sequence number adjustments from NAT and move them to the conntrack
core to make them usable for SYN proxying. The sequence number adjustment
information is moved to a seperate extend. The extend is added to new

As a side effect, this saves 24 bytes per connection with NAT in the common
case that a connection does not have a helper assigned.

Florian Westphal fd158d79d3 netfilter: tproxy: remove nf_tproxy_core, keep tw sk assigned to skb
The module was "permanent", due to the special tproxy skb->destructor.
Nowadays we have tcp early demux and its sock_edemux destructor in
networking core which can be used instead.

Thanks to early demux changes the input path now also handles
"skb->sk is tw socket" correctly, so this no longer needs the special
handling introduced with commit d503b30bd6
(netfilter: tproxy: do not assign timewait sockets to skb->sk).

Thus:
- move assign_sock function to where its needed
- don't prevent timewait sockets from being assigned to the skb
- remove nf_tproxy_core.

Pablo Neira Ayuso 12f7a50533 netfilter: add user-space connection tracking helper infrastructure
There are good reasons to supports helpers in user-space instead:

* Rapid connection tracking helper development, as developing code
  in user-space is usually faster.

* Reliability: A buggy helper does not crash the kernel. Moreover,
  we can monitor the helper process and restart it in case of problems.

* Security: Avoid complex string matching and mangling in kernel-space
  running in privileged mode. Going further, we can even think about
  running user-space helpers as a non-root process.

* Extensibility: It allows the development of very specific helpers (most
  likely non-standard proprietary protocols) that are very likely not to be
  accepted for mainline inclusion in the form of kernel-space connection
  tracking helpers.

This patch adds the infrastructure to allow the implementation of
user-space conntrack helpers by means of the new nfnetlink subsystem
`nfnetlink_cthelper' and the existing queueing infrastructure
(nfnetlink_queue).

I had to add the new hook NF_IP6_PRI_CONNTRACK_HELPER to register
ipv[4|6]_helper which results from splitting ipv[4|6]_confirm into
two pieces. This change is required not to break NAT sequence
adjustment and conntrack confirmation for traffic that is enqueued
to our user-space conntrack helpers.

Basic operation, in a few steps:

1) Register user-space helper by means of `nfct':

 nfct helper add ftp inet tcp

 [ It must be a valid existing helper supported by conntrack-tools ]

2) Add rules to enable the FTP user-space helper which is
   used to track traffic going to TCP port 21.

For locally generated packets:

 iptables -I OUTPUT -t raw -p tcp --dport 21 -j CT --helper ftp

For non-locally generated packets:

 iptables -I PREROUTING -t raw -p tcp --dport 21 -j CT --helper ftp

3) Run the test conntrackd in helper mode (see example files under
   doc/helper/conntrackd.conf

 conntrackd

4) Generate FTP traffic going, if everything is OK, then conntrackd
   should create expectations (you can check that with `conntrack':

 conntrack -E expect

    [NEW] 301 proto=6 src=192.168.1.136 dst=130.89.148.12 sport=0 dport=54037 mask-src=255.255.255.255 mask-dst=255.255.255.255 sport=0 dport=65535 master-src=192.168.1.136 master-dst=130.89.148.12 sport=57127 dport=21 class=0 helper=ftp
[DESTROY] 301 proto=6 src=192.168.1.136 dst=130.89.148.12 sport=0 dport=54037 mask-src=255.255.255.255 mask-dst=255.255.255.255 sport=0 dport=65535 master-src=192.168.1.136 master-dst=130.89.148.12 sport=57127 dport=21 class=0 helper=ftp

This confirms that our test helper is receiving packets including the
conntrack information, and adding expectations in kernel-space.

The user-space helper can also store its private tracking information
in the conntrack structure in the kernel via the CTA_HELP_INFO. The
kernel will consider this a binary blob whose layout is unknown. This
information will be included in the information that is transfered
to user-space via glue code that integrates nfnetlink_queue and
ctnetlink.

Pablo Neira Ayuso 9413902796 netfilter: add extended accounting infrastructure over nfnetlink
We currently have two ways to account traffic in netfilter:

- iptables chain and rule counters:

 # iptables -L -n -v
Chain INPUT (policy DROP 3 packets, 867 bytes)
 pkts bytes target     prot opt in     out     source               destination
    8  1104 ACCEPT     all  --  lo     *       0.0.0.0/0            0.0.0.0/0

- use flow-based accounting provided by ctnetlink:

 # conntrack -L
tcp      6 431999 ESTABLISHED src=192.168.1.130 dst=212.106.219.168 sport=58152 dport=80 packets=47 bytes=7654 src=212.106.219.168 dst=192.168.1.130 sport=80 dport=58152 packets=49 bytes=66340 [ASSURED] mark=0 use=1

While trying to display real-time accounting statistics, we require
to pool the kernel periodically to obtain this information. This is
OK if the number of flows is relatively low. However, in case that
the number of flows is huge, we can spend a considerable amount of
cycles to iterate over the list of flows that have been obtained.

Moreover, if we want to obtain the sum of the flow accounting results
that match some criteria, we have to iterate over the whole list of
existing flows, look for matchings and update the counters.

This patch adds the extended accounting infrastructure for
nfnetlink which aims to allow displaying real-time traffic accounting
without the need of complicated and resource-consuming implementation
in user-space. Basically, this new infrastructure allows you to create
accounting objects. One accounting object is composed of packet and
byte counters.

In order to manipulate create accounting objects, you require the
new libnetfilter_acct library. It contains several examples of use:

libnetfilter_acct/examples# ./nfacct-add http-traffic
libnetfilter_acct/examples# ./nfacct-get
http-traffic = { pkts = 000000000000,   bytes = 000000000000 };

Then, you can use one of this accounting objects in several iptables
rules using the new nfacct match (which comes in a follow-up patch):

 # iptables -I INPUT -p tcp --sport 80 -m nfacct --nfacct-name http-traffic
 # iptables -I OUTPUT -p tcp --dport 80 -m nfacct --nfacct-name http-traffic

The idea is simple: if one packet matches the rule, the nfacct match
updates the counters.

providing feedback for this contribution.

Jozsef Kadlecsik a7b4f989a6 netfilter: ipset: IP set core support
The patch adds the IP set core support to the kernel.

The IP set core implements a netlink (nfnetlink) based protocol by which
one can create, destroy, flush, rename, swap, list, save, restore sets,
and add, delete, test elements from userspace. For simplicity (and backward
compatibilty and for not to force ip(6)tables to be linked with a netlink
library) reasons a small getsockopt-based protocol is also kept in order
to communicate with the ip(6)tables match and target.

The netlink protocol passes all u16, etc values in network order with
NLA_F_NET_BYTEORDER flag. The protocol enforces the proper use of the
NLA_F_NESTED and NLA_F_NET_BYTEORDER flags.

For other kernel subsystems (netfilter match and target) the API contains
the functions to add, delete and test elements in sets and the required calls
to get/put refereces to the sets before those operations can be performed.

The set types (which are implemented in independent modules) are stored
in a simple RCU protected list. A set type may have variants: for example
without timeout or with timeout support, for IPv4 or for IPv6. The sets
(i.e. the pointers to the sets) are stored in an array. The sets are
identified by their index in the array, which makes possible easy and
fast swapping of sets. The array is protected indirectly by the nfnl
mutex from nfnetlink. The content of the sets are protected by the rwlock
of the set.

There are functional differences between the add/del/test functions
for the kernel and userspace:

- kernel add/del/test: works on the current packet (i.e. one element)
- kernel test: may trigger an "add" operation  in order to fill
  out unspecified parts of the element from the packet (like MAC address)
- userspace add/del: works on the netlink message and thus possibly
  on multiple elements from the IPSET_ATTR_ADT container attribute.
- userspace add: may trigger resizing of a set

Pablo Neira Ayuso a992ca2a04 netfilter: nf_conntrack_tstamp: add flow-based timestamp extension
This patch adds flow-based timestamping for conntracks. This
conntrack extension is disabled by default. Basically, we use
two 64-bits variables to store the creation timestamp once the
conntrack has been confirmed and the other to store the deletion
time. This extension is disabled by default, to enable it, you
have to:

echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/netfilter/nf_conntrack_timestamp

This patch allows to save memory for user-space flow-based
loogers such as ulogd2. In short, ulogd2 does not need to
keep a hashtable with the conntrack in user-space to know
when they were created and destroyed, instead we use the
kernel timestamp. If we want to have a sane IPFIX implementation
in user-space, this nanosecs resolution timestamps are also
useful. Other custom user-space applications can benefit from
this via libnetfilter_conntrack.

This patch modifies the /proc output to display the delta time
in seconds since the flow start. You can also obtain the
flow-start date by means of the conntrack-tools.
