2009-06-08netfilter: nf_ct_icmp: keep the ICMP ct entries longerJan Kasprzak
Current conntrack code kills the ICMP conntrack entry as soon as the first reply is received. This is incorrect, as we then see only the first ICMP echo reply out of several possible duplicates as ESTABLISHED, while the rest will be INVALID. Also this unnecessarily increases the conntrackd traffic on H-A firewalls. Make all the ICMP conntrack entries (including the replied ones) last for the default of nf_conntrack_icmp{,v6}_timeout seconds.

2009-06-02netfilter: conntrack: simplify event caching systemPablo Neira Ayuso
This patch simplifies the conntrack event caching system by removing several events: * IPCT_[*]_VOLATILE, IPCT_HELPINFO and IPCT_NATINFO has been deleted since the have no clients. * IPCT_COUNTER_FILLING which is a leftover of the 32-bits counter days. * IPCT_REFRESH which is not of any use since we always include the timeout in the messages. After this patch, the existing events are: * IPCT_NEW, IPCT_RELATED and IPCT_DESTROY, that are used to identify addition and deletion of entries. * IPCT_STATUS, that notes that the status bits have changes, eg. IPS_SEEN_REPLY and IPS_ASSURED. * IPCT_PROTOINFO, that reports that internal protocol information has changed, eg. the TCP, DCCP and SCTP protocol state. * IPCT_HELPER, that a helper has been assigned or unassigned to this entry. * IPCT_MARK and IPCT_SECMARK, that reports that the mark has changed, this covers the case when a mark is set to zero. * IPCT_NATSEQADJ, to report that there's updates in the NAT sequence adjustment.

2009-04-28netfilter: revised locking for x_tablesStephen Hemminger
The x_tables are organized with a table structure and a per-cpu copies of the counters and rules. On older kernels there was a reader/writer lock per table which was a performance bottleneck. In 2.6.30-rc, this was converted to use RCU and the counters/rules which solved the performance problems for do_table but made replacing rules much slower because of the necessary RCU grace period. This version uses a per-cpu set of spinlocks and counters to allow to table processing to proceed without the cache thrashing of a global reader lock and keeps the same performance for table updates.

2009-03-25netfilter: {ip,ip6,arp}_tables: fix incorrect loop detectionPatrick McHardy
Commit e1b4b9f ([NETFILTER]: {ip,ip6,arp}_tables: fix exponential worst-case search for loops) introduced a regression in the loop detection algorithm, causing sporadic incorrectly detected loops. When a chain has already been visited during the check, it is treated as having a standard target containing a RETURN verdict directly at the beginning in order to not check it again. The real target of the first rule is then incorrectly treated as STANDARD target and checked not to contain invalid verdicts. Fix by making sure the rule does actually contain a standard target.

2009-03-16netfilter: use a linked list of loggersEric Leblond
This patch modifies nf_log to use a linked list of loggers for each protocol. This list of loggers is read and write protected with a mutex. This patch separates registration and binding. To be used as logging module, a module has to register calling nf_log_register() and to bind to a protocol it has to call nf_log_bind_pf(). This patch also converts the logging modules to the new API. For nfnetlink_log, it simply switchs call to register functions to call to bind function and adds a call to nf_log_register() during init. For other modules, it just remove a const flag from the logger structure and replace it with a __read_mostly.

2009-02-20netfilter: iptables: lock free countersStephen Hemminger
The reader/writer lock in ip_tables is acquired in the critical path of processing packets and is one of the reasons just loading iptables can cause a 20% performance loss. The rwlock serves two functions: 1) it prevents changes to table state (xt_replace) while table is in use. This is now handled by doing rcu on the xt_table. When table is replaced, the new table(s) are put in and the old one table(s) are freed after RCU period. 2) it provides synchronization when accesing the counter values. This is now handled by swapping in new table_info entries for each cpu then summing the old values, and putting the result back onto one cpu. On a busy system it may cause sampling to occur at different times on each cpu, but no packet/byte counts are lost in the process.
