2008-06-09netfilter: {ip,ip6,nfnetlink}_queue: misc cleanupsRami Rosen
- No need to perform data_len = 0 in the switch command, since data_len is initialized to 0 in the beginning of the ipq_build_packet_message() method. - {ip,ip6}_queue: We can reach nlmsg_failure only from one place; skb is sure to be NULL when getting there; since skb is NULL, there is no need to check this fact and call kfree_skb().

AFAICT, it should ask for 'diff' instead of 'diff - skb_tailroom(e->skb)'. Because the resulting sk_buff has not enough space to support the skb_put(skb, diff) call a few lines later, this results in the call to skb_over_panic(). The patch below asks for allocation of a copy with enough space for mangled packet and the same amount of headroom as old sk_buff. While looking at how the regression appeared (e2b58a67), I noticed the same pattern in ipq_mangle_ipv6() and ipq_mangle_ipv4(). The patch corrects those locations too. Tested with bigger reinjected IPv6 packets (nfqnl_mangle() path), things are ok (2.6.25 and today's net-2.6 git tree).

2008-03-10[NETFILTER]: nfnetlink_queue: fix computation of allocated size for netlink skb.Eric Leblond
Size of the netlink skb was wrongly computed because the formula was using NLMSG_ALIGN instead of NLMSG_SPACE. NLMSG_ALIGN does not add the room for netlink header as NLMSG_SPACE does. This was causing a failure of message building in some cases. On my test system, all messages for packets in range [8*k+41, 8*k+48] where k is an integer were invalid and the corresponding packets were dropped.

packet data As reported by Tomas Simonaitis <tomas.simonaitis@gmail.com>, inserting new data in skbs queued over {ip,ip6,nfnetlink}_queue triggers a SKB_LINEAR_ASSERT in skb_put(). Going back through the git history, it seems this bug is present since at least 2.6.12-rc2, probably even since the removal of skb_linearize() for netfilter.

2007-10-10[NET]: Support multiple network namespaces with netlinkEric W. Biederman
Each netlink socket will live in exactly one network namespace, this includes the controlling kernel sockets. This patch updates all of the existing netlink protocols to only support the initial network namespace. Request by clients in other namespaces will get -ECONREFUSED. As they would if the kernel did not have the support for that netlink protocol compiled in. As each netlink protocol is updated to be multiple network namespace safe it can register multiple kernel sockets to acquire a presence in the rest of the network namespaces. The implementation in af_netlink is a simple filter implementation at hash table insertion and hash table look up time. Signed-off-by: Eric W.

2007-10-10[NET]: Make device event notification network namespace safeEric W. Biederman
Every user of the network device notifiers is either a protocol stack or a pseudo device. If a protocol stack that does not have support for multiple network namespaces receives an event for a device that is not in the initial network namespace it quite possibly can get confused and do the wrong thing. To avoid problems until all of the protocol stacks are converted this patch modifies all netdev event handlers to ignore events on devices that are not in the initial network namespace. As the rest of the code is made network namespace aware these checks can be removed. Signed-off-by: Eric W. Biederman <ebiederm@xmission.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

2007-04-25[NETLINK]: Remove error pointer from netlink message handlerThomas Graf
The error pointer argument in netlink message handlers is used to signal the special case where processing has to be interrupted because a dump was started but no error happened. Instead it is simpler and more clear to return -EINTR and have netlink_run_queue() deal with getting the queue right. nfnetlink passed on this error pointer to its subsystem handlers but only uses it to signal the start of a netlink dump. Therefore it can be removed there as well. This patch also cleans up the error handling in the affected message handlers to be consistent since it had to be touched anyway.

2007-04-25[NET]: convert network timestamps to ktime_tEric Dumazet
We currently use a special structure (struct skb_timeval) and plain 'struct timeval' to store packet timestamps in sk_buffs and struct sock. This has some drawbacks : - Fixed resolution of micro second. - Waste of space on 64bit platforms where sizeof(struct timeval)=16 I suggest using ktime_t that is a nice abstraction of high resolution time services, currently capable of nanosecond resolution. As sizeof(ktime_t) is 8 bytes, using ktime_t in 'struct sock' permits a 8 byte shrink of this structure on 64bit architectures. Some other structures also benefit from this size reduction (struct ipq in ipv4/ip_fragment.c, struct frag_queue in ipv6/reassembly.c, ...) Once this ktime infrastructure adopted, we can more easily provide nanosecond resolution on top of it. (ioctl SIOCGSTAMPNS and/or SO_TIMESTAMPNS/SCM_TIMESTAMPNS) Note : this patch includes a bug correction in compat_sock_get_timestamp() where a "err = 0;" was missing (so this syscall returned -ENOENT instead of 0) Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <dada1@cosmosbay.com> CC: Stephen Hemminger <shemminger@linux-foundation.org> CC: John find <linux.kernel@free.fr> Signed-off-by: David S.
