2013-10-14netfilter: nf_tables: Add support for IPv6 NATTomasz Bursztyka
This patch generalizes the NAT expression to support both IPv4 and IPv6 using the existing IPv4/IPv6 NAT infrastructure. This also adds the NAT chain type for IPv6. This patch collapses the following patches that were posted to the netfilter-devel mailing list, from Tomasz: * nf_tables: Change NFTA_NAT_ attributes to better semantic significance * nf_tables: Split IPv4 NAT into NAT expression and IPv4 NAT chain * nf_tables: Add support for IPv6 NAT expression * nf_tables: Add support for IPv6 NAT chain * nf_tables: Fix up build issue on IPv6 NAT support And, from Pablo Neira Ayuso: * fix missing dependencies in nft_chain_nat Signed-off-by: Tomasz Bursztyka <tomasz.bursztyka@linux.intel.com> Signed-off-by: Pablo Neira Ayuso <pablo@netfilter.org>
2013-10-14netfilter: nf_tables: add compatibility layer for x_tablesPablo Neira Ayuso
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>
2013-10-14netfilter: nf_tables: add netlink set APIPatrick McHardy
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 * netfilter: nf_tables: destroy anonymous sets immediately if binding fails * netfilter: nf_tables: propagate context to set iter callback * netfilter: nf_tables: add loop detection From Pablo Neira Ayuso: * netfilter: nf_tables: allow to dump all existing sets * netfilter: nf_tables: fix wrong type for flags variable in newelem Signed-off-by: Patrick McHardy <kaber@trash.net> Signed-off-by: Pablo Neira Ayuso <pablo@netfilter.org>
2013-10-14netfilter: add nftablesPatrick McHardy
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: From Patrick McHardy: * nf_tables: adjust netlink handler function signatures * nf_tables: only retry table lookup after successful table module load * nf_tables: fix event notification echo and avoid unnecessary messages * nft_ct: add l3proto support * nf_tables: pass expression context to nft_validate_data_load() * nf_tables: remove redundant definition * nft_ct: fix maxattr initialization * nf_tables: fix invalid event type in nf_tables_getrule() * nf_tables: simplify nft_data_init() usage * nf_tables: build in more core modules * nf_tables: fix double lookup expression unregistation * nf_tables: move expression initialization to nf_tables_core.c * nf_tables: build in payload module * nf_tables: use NFPROTO constants * nf_tables: rename pid variables to portid * nf_tables: save 48 bits per rule * nf_tables: introduce chain rename * nf_tables: check for duplicate names on chain rename * nf_tables: remove ability to specify handles for new rules * nf_tables: return error for rule change request * nf_tables: return error for NLM_F_REPLACE without rule handle * nf_tables: include NLM_F_APPEND/NLM_F_REPLACE flags in rule notification * nf_tables: fix NLM_F_MULTI usage in netlink notifications * nf_tables: include NLM_F_APPEND in rule dumps From Pablo Neira Ayuso: * nf_tables: fix stack overflow in nf_tables_newrule * nf_tables: nft_ct: fix compilation warning * nf_tables: nft_ct: fix crash with invalid packets * nft_log: group and qthreshold are 2^16 * nf_tables: nft_meta: fix socket uid,gid handling * nft_counter: allow to restore counters * nf_tables: fix module autoload * nf_tables: allow to remove all rules placed in one chain * nf_tables: use 64-bits rule handle instead of 16-bits * nf_tables: fix chain after rule deletion * nf_tables: improve deletion performance * nf_tables: add missing code in route chain type * nf_tables: rise maximum number of expressions from 12 to 128 * nf_tables: don't delete table if in use * nf_tables: fix basechain release From Tomasz Bursztyka: * nf_tables: Add support for changing users chain's name * nf_tables: Change chain's name to be fixed sized * nf_tables: Add support for replacing a rule by another one * nf_tables: Update uapi nftables netlink header documentation From Florian Westphal: * nft_log: group is u16, snaplen u32 From Phil Oester: * nf_tables: operational limit match Signed-off-by: Patrick McHardy <kaber@trash.net> Signed-off-by: Pablo Neira Ayuso <pablo@netfilter.org>

2013-08-27netfilter: add SYNPROXY core/targetPatrick McHardy
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.

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 d503b30bd648b3cb4e5f50b65d27e389960cc6d9 (netfilter: tproxy: do not assign timewait sockets to skb->sk).

2012-12-24netfilter: xt_CT: recover NOTRACK target supportPablo Neira Ayuso
Florian Westphal reported that the removal of the NOTRACK target (9655050 netfilter: remove xt_NOTRACK) is breaking some existing setups. That removal was scheduled for removal since long time ago as described in Documentation/feature-removal-schedule.txt What: xt_NOTRACK Files: net/netfilter/xt_NOTRACK.c When: April 2011 Why: Superseded by xt_CT Still, people may have not notice / may have decided to stick to an old iptables version. I agree with him in that some more conservative approach by spotting some printk to warn users for some time is less agressive. Current iptables 1.4.16.3 already contains the aliasing support that makes it point to the CT target, so upgrading would fix it. Still, the policy so far has been to avoid pushing our users to upgrade. As a solution, this patch recovers the NOTRACK target inside the CT target and it now spots a warning.

2012-06-16netfilter: add user-space connection tracking helper infrastructurePablo Neira Ayuso
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.

This patch adds the match that allows to perform extended accounting. It requires the new nfnetlink_acct infrastructure. # 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 Signed-off-by: Pablo Neira Ayuso <pablo@netfilter.org>
2011-12-25netfilter: add extended accounting infrastructure over nfnetlinkPablo Neira Ayuso
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.

2011-02-01netfilter: ipset: IP set core supportJozsef Kadlecsik
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 Signed-off-by: Jozsef Kadlecsik <kadlec@blackhole.kfki.hu> Signed-off-by: Patrick McHardy <kaber@trash.net>
2011-01-19netfilter: nf_conntrack_tstamp: add flow-based timestamp extensionPablo Neira Ayuso
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. Signed-off-by: Pablo Neira Ayuso <pablo@netfilter.org> Signed-off-by: Patrick McHardy <kaber@trash.net>

This patch implements the "second best choice". Since the netbios-ns conntrack module uses the same helper functionality as the snmp, only one helper function is added for both snmp and netbios-ns modules into the new object - nf_conntrack_broadcast.

2011-01-16netfilter: audit target to record accepted/dropped packetsThomas Graf
This patch adds a new netfilter target which creates audit records for packets traversing a certain chain. It can be used to record packets which are rejected administraively as follows: -N AUDIT_DROP -A AUDIT_DROP -j AUDIT --type DROP -A AUDIT_DROP -j DROP a rule which would typically drop or reject a packet would then invoke the new chain to record packets before dropping them. -j AUDIT_DROP The module is protocol independant and works for iptables, ip6tables and ebtables. The following information is logged: - netfilter hook - packet length - incomming/outgoing interface - MAC src/dst/proto for ethernet packets - src/dst/protocol address for IPv4/IPv6 - src/dst port for TCP/UDP/UDPLITE - icmp type/code Cc: Patrick McHardy <kaber@trash.net> Cc: Eric Paris <eparis@parisplace.org> Cc: Al Viro <viro@ZenIV.linux.org.uk> Signed-off-by: Thomas Graf <tgraf@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Patrick McHardy <kaber@trash.net>
