2018-01-08netfilter: core: only allow one nat hook per hook pointFlorian Westphal
The netfilter NAT core cannot deal with more than one NAT hook per hook location (prerouting, input ...), because the NAT hooks install a NAT null binding in case the iptables nat table (iptable_nat hooks) or the corresponding nftables chain (nft nat hooks) doesn't specify a nat transformation. Null bindings are needed to detect port collsisions between NAT-ed and non-NAT-ed connections. This causes nftables NAT rules to not work when iptable_nat module is loaded, and vice versa because nat binding has already been attached when the second nat hook is consulted. The netfilter core is not really the correct location to handle this (hooks are just hooks, the core has no notion of what kinds of side effects a hook implements), but its the only place where we can check for conflicts between both iptables hooks and nftables hooks without adding dependencies. So add nat annotation to hook_ops to describe those hooks that will add NAT bindings and then make core reject if such a hook already exists. The annotation fills a padding hole, in case further restrictions appar we might change this to a 'u8 type' instead of bool. iptables error if nft nat hook active: iptables -t nat -A POSTROUTING -j MASQUERADE iptables v1.4.21: can't initialize iptables table `nat': File exists Perhaps iptables or your kernel needs to be upgraded. nftables error if iptables nat table present: nft -f /etc/nftables/ipv4-nat /usr/etc/nftables/ipv4-nat:3:1-2: Error: Could not process rule: File exists table nat { ^^ Signed-off-by: Florian Westphal <fw@strlen.de> Signed-off-by: Pablo Neira Ayuso <pablo@netfilter.org>

2018-01-08netfilter: reduce size of hook entry point locationsFlorian Westphal
struct net contains: struct nf_hook_entries __rcu *hooks[NFPROTO_NUMPROTO][NF_MAX_HOOKS]; which store the hook entry point locations for the various protocol families and the hooks. Using array results in compact c code when doing accesses, i.e. x = rcu_dereference(net->nf.hooks[pf][hook]); but its also wasting a lot of memory, as most families are not used. So split the array into those families that are used, which are only 5 (instead of 13). In most cases, the 'pf' argument is constant, i.e. gcc removes switch statement. struct net before: /* size: 5184, cachelines: 81, members: 46 */ after: /* size: 4672, cachelines: 73, members: 46 */ Signed-off-by: Florian Westphal <fw@strlen.de> Signed-off-by: Pablo Neira Ayuso <pablo@netfilter.org>
2018-01-08netfilter: core: free hooks with call_rcuFlorian Westphal
Giuseppe Scrivano says: "SELinux, if enabled, registers for each new network namespace 6 netfilter hooks." Cost for this is high. With synchronize_net() removed: "The net benefit on an SMP machine with two cores is that creating a new network namespace takes -40% of the original time." This patch replaces synchronize_net+kvfree with call_rcu(). We store rcu_head at the tail of a structure that has no fixed layout, i.e. we cannot use offsetof() to compute the start of the original allocation. Thus store this information right after the rcu head. We could simplify this by just placing the rcu_head at the start of struct nf_hook_entries. However, this structure is used in packet processing hotpath, so only place what is needed for that at the beginning of the struct.

since commit 960632ece6949b ("netfilter: convert hook list to an array") nfqueue no longer stores a pointer to the hook that caused the packet to be queued. Therefore no extra synchronize_net() call is needed after dropping the packets enqueued by the old rule blob.

This reverts commit d3ad2c17b4047 ("netfilter: core: batch nf_unregister_net_hooks synchronize_net calls"). Nothing wrong with it. However, followup patch will delay freeing of hooks with call_rcu, so all synchronize_net() calls become obsolete and there is no need anymore for this batching. This revert causes a temporary performance degradation when destroying network namespace, but its resolved with the upcoming call_rcu conversion.

2017-08-28netfilter: convert hook list to an arrayAaron Conole
This converts the storage and layout of netfilter hook entries from a linked list to an array. After this commit, hook entries will be stored adjacent in memory. The next pointer is no longer required. The ops pointers are stored at the end of the array as they are only used in the register/unregister path and in the legacy br_netfilter code. nf_unregister_net_hooks() is slower than needed as it just calls nf_unregister_net_hook in a loop (i.e. at least n synchronize_net() calls), this will be addressed in followup patch. Test setup: - ixgbe 10gbit - netperf UDP_STREAM, 64 byte packets - 5 hooks: (raw + mangle prerouting, mangle+filter input, inet filter): empty mangle and raw prerouting, mangle and filter input hooks: 353.9 this patch: 364.2 Signed-off-by: Aaron Conole <aconole@bytheb.org> Signed-off-by: Florian Westphal <fw@strlen.de> Signed-off-by: Pablo Neira Ayuso <pablo@netfilter.org>

2017-05-01netfilter: nf_queue: only call synchronize_net twice if nf_queue is activeFlorian Westphal
nf_unregister_net_hook(s) can avoid a second call to synchronize_net, provided there is no nfqueue active in that net namespace (which is the common case). This also gets rid of the extra arg to nf_queue_nf_hook_drop(), normally this gets called during netns cleanup so no packets should be queued. For the rare case of base chain being unregistered or module removal while nfqueue is in use the extra hiccup due to the packet drops isn't a big deal.

2017-05-01netfilter: batch synchronize_net calls during hook unregisterFlorian Westphal
synchronize_net is expensive and slows down netns cleanup a lot. We have two APIs to unregister a hook: nf_unregister_net_hook (which calls synchronize_net()) and nf_unregister_net_hooks (calls nf_unregister_net_hook in a loop) Make nf_unregister_net_hook a wapper around new helper __nf_unregister_net_hook, which unlinks the hook but does not free it. Then, we can call that helper in nf_unregister_net_hooks and then call synchronize_net() only once. Andrey Konovalov reports this change improves syzkaller fuzzing speed at least twice.

2017-02-02netfilter: merge ctinfo into nfct pointer storage areaFlorian Westphal
After this change conntrack operations (lookup, creation, matching from ruleset) only access one instead of two sk_buff cache lines. This works for normal conntracks because those are allocated from a slab that guarantees hw cacheline or 8byte alignment (whatever is larger) so the 3 bits needed for ctinfo won't overlap with nf_conn addresses. Template allocation now does manual address alignment (see previous change) on arches that don't have sufficent kmalloc min alignment. Some spots intentionally use skb->_nfct instead of skb_nfct() helpers, this is to avoid undoing the skb_nfct() use when we remove untracked conntrack object in the future.

2016-11-03netfilter: merge nf_iterate() into nf_hook_slow()Pablo Neira Ayuso
nf_iterate() has become rather simple, we can integrate this code into nf_hook_slow() to reduce the amount of LOC in the core path. However, we still need nf_iterate() around for nf_queue packet handling, so move this function there where we only need it. I think it should be possible to refactor nf_queue code to get rid of it definitely, but given this is slow path anyway, let's have a look this later.

2016-11-03netfilter: remove hook_entries field from nf_hook_statePablo Neira Ayuso
This field is only useful for nf_queue, so store it in the nf_queue_entry structure instead, away from the core path. Pass hook_head to nf_hook_slow(). Since we always have a valid entry on the first iteration in nf_iterate(), we can use 'do { ... } while (entry)' loop instead. Signed-off-by: Pablo Neira Ayuso <pablo@netfilter.org>

2016-11-03netfilter: deprecate NF_STOPPablo Neira Ayuso
NF_STOP is only used by br_netfilter these days, and it can be emulated with a combination of NF_STOLEN plus explicit call to the ->okfn() function as Florian suggests. To retain binary compatibility with userspace nf_queue application, we have to keep NF_STOP around, so libnetfilter_queue userspace userspace applications still work if they use NF_STOP for some exotic reason. Out of tree modules using NF_STOP would break, but we don't care about those. Signed-off-by: Pablo Neira Ayuso <pablo@netfilter.org>
2016-11-03netfilter: kill NF_HOOK_THRESH() and state->treshPablo Neira Ayuso
Patch c5136b15ea36 ("netfilter: bridge: add and use br_nf_hook_thresh") introduced br_nf_hook_thresh(). Replace NF_HOOK_THRESH() by br_nf_hook_thresh from br_nf_forward_finish(), so we have no more callers for this macro. As a result, state->thresh and explicit thresh parameter in the hook state structure is not required anymore. And we can get rid of skip-hook-under-thresh loop in nf_iterate() in the core path that is only used by br_netfilter to search for the filter hook.

2016-11-03netfilter: remove comments that predate rcu daysPablo Neira Ayuso

2016-10-20netfilter: fix nf_queue handlingPablo Neira Ayuso
nf_queue handling is broken since e3b37f11e6e4 ("netfilter: replace list_head with single linked list") for two reasons: 1) If the bypass flag is set on, there are no userspace listeners and we still have more hook entries to iterate over, then jump to the next hook. Otherwise accept the packet. On nf_reinject() path, the okfn() needs to be invoked. 2) We should not re-enter the same hook on packet reinjection. If the packet is accepted, we have to skip the current hook from where the packet was enqueued, otherwise the packets gets enqueued over and over again. This restores the previous list_for_each_entry_continue() behaviour happening from nf_iterate() that was dealing with these two cases. This patch introduces a new nf_queue() wrapper function so this fix becomes simpler.

2015-10-04netfilter: nfnetlink_queue: get rid of nfnetlink_queue_ct.cPablo Neira Ayuso
The original intention was to avoid dependencies between nfnetlink_queue and conntrack without ifdef pollution. However, we can achieve this by moving the conntrack dependent code into ctnetlink and keep some glue code to access the nfq_ct indirection from nfqueue. After this patch, the nfq_ct indirection is always compiled in the netfilter core to avoid polluting nfqueue with ifdefs. Thus, if nf_conntrack is not compiled this results in only 8-bytes of memory waste in x86_64. This patch also adds ctnetlink_nfqueue_seqadj() to avoid that the nf_conn structure layout if exposed to nf_queue, which creates another dependency with nf_conntrack at compilation time.
