2009-08-24netfilter: xtables: mark initial tables constantJan Engelhardt1-1/+2
The inputted table is never modified, so should be considered const. Signed-off-by: Jan Engelhardt <jengelh@medozas.de> Signed-off-by: Patrick McHardy <kaber@trash.net>
2009-08-10netfilter: xtables: check for standard verdicts in policiesJan Engelhardt1-2/+19
This adds the second check that Rusty wanted to have a long time ago. :-) Base chain policies must have absolute verdicts that cease processing in the table, otherwise rule execution may continue in an unexpected spurious fashion (e.g. next chain that follows in memory).

2009-08-10netfilter: xtables: check for unconditionality of policiesJan Engelhardt1-5/+7
This adds a check that iptables's original author Rusty set forth in a FIXME comment. Underflows in iptables are better known as chain policies, and are required to be unconditional or there would be a stochastical chance for the policy rule to be skipped if it does not match. If that were to happen, rule execution would continue in an unexpected spurious fashion. Signed-off-by: Jan Engelhardt <jengelh@medozas.de>
2009-08-10netfilter: xtables: ignore unassigned hooks in check_entry_size_and_hooksJan Engelhardt1-1/+4
The "hook_entry" and "underflow" array contains values even for hooks not provided, such as PREROUTING in conjunction with the "filter" table. Usually, the values point to whatever the next rule is. For the upcoming unconditionality and underflow checking patches however, we must not inspect that arbitrary rule. Skipping unassigned hooks seems like a good idea, also because newinfo->hook_entry and newinfo->underflow will then continue to have the poison value for detecting abnormalities.

2009-08-10netfilter: xtables: use memcmp in unconditional checkJan Engelhardt1-7/+3
Instead of inspecting each u32/char open-coded, clean up and make use of memcmp. On some arches, memcmp is implemented as assembly or GCC's __builtin_memcmp which can possibly take advantages of known alignment. Signed-off-by: Jan Engelhardt <jengelh@medozas.de>

2009-04-28netfilter: revised locking for x_tablesStephen Hemminger1-89/+36
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 McHardy1-1/+3
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.

2009-02-20netfilter: iptables: lock free countersStephen Hemminger1-27/+88
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.

2008-04-14[NETFILTER]: {ip,ip6,arp}_tables: return EAGAIN for invalid SO_GET_ENTRIES sizePatrick McHardy1-2/+2
Rule dumping is performed in two steps: first userspace gets the ruleset size using getsockopt(SO_GET_INFO) and allocates memory, then it calls getsockopt(SO_GET_ENTRIES) to actually dump the ruleset. When another process changes the ruleset in between the sizes from the first getsockopt call doesn't match anymore and the kernel aborts. Unfortunately it returns EAGAIN, as for multiple other possible errors, so userspace can't distinguish this case from real errors. Return EAGAIN so userspace can retry the operation.

2008-01-31[NETFILTER]: x_tables: return new table from {arp,ip,ip6}t_register_table()Alexey Dobriyan1-10/+12
Typical table module registers xt_table structure (i.e. packet_filter) and link it to list during it. We can't use one template for it because corresponding list_head will become corrupted. We also can't unregister with template because it wasn't changed at all and thus doesn't know in which list it is. So, we duplicate template at the very first step of table registration. Table modules will save it for use during unregistration time and actual filtering. Do it at once to not screw bisection. P.S.: renaming i.e. packet_filter => __packet_filter is temporary until full netnsization of table modules is done.

2008-01-28[NETFILTER]: x_tables: struct xt_table_info dietEric Dumazet1-3/+2
Instead of using a big array of NR_CPUS entries, we can compute the size needed at runtime, using nr_cpu_ids This should save some ram (especially on David's machines where NR_CPUS=4096 : 32 KB can be saved per table, and 64KB for dynamically allocated ones (because of slab/slub alignements) ) In particular, the 'bootstrap' tables are not any more static (in data section) but on stack as their size is now very small. This also should reduce the size used on stack in compat functions (get_info() declares an automatic variable, that could be bigger than kernel stack size for big NR_CPUS) Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <dada1@cosmosbay.com> Signed-off-by: Patrick McHardy <kaber@trash.net> Signed-off-by: David S.

2007-09-11[NETFILTER]: Fix/improve deadlock condition on module removal netfilterNeil Horman1-0/+1
So I've had a deadlock reported to me. I've found that the sequence of events goes like this: 1) process A (modprobe) runs to remove ip_tables.ko 2) process B (iptables-restore) runs and calls setsockopt on a netfilter socket, increasing the ip_tables socket_ops use count 3) process A acquires a file lock on the file ip_tables.ko, calls remove_module in the kernel, which in turn executes the ip_tables module cleanup routine, which calls nf_unregister_sockopt 4) nf_unregister_sockopt, seeing that the use count is non-zero, puts the calling process into uninterruptible sleep, expecting the process using the socket option code to wake it up when it exits the kernel 4) the user of the socket option code (process B) in do_ipt_get_ctl, calls ipt_find_table_lock, which in this case calls request_module to load ip_tables_nat.ko 5) request_module forks a copy of modprobe (process C) to load the module and blocks until modprobe exits. 6) Process C. forked by request_module process the dependencies of ip_tables_nat.ko, of which ip_tables.ko is one. 7) Process C attempts to lock the request module and all its dependencies, it blocks when it attempts to lock ip_tables.ko (which was previously locked in step 3) Theres not really any great permanent solution to this that I can see, but I've developed a two part solution that corrects the problem Part 1) Modifies the nf_sockopt registration code so that, instead of using a use counter internal to the nf_sockopt_ops structure, we instead use a pointer to the registering modules owner to do module reference counting when nf_sockopt calls a modules set/get routine. This prevents the deadlock by preventing set 4 from happening. Part 2) Enhances the modprobe utilty so that by default it preforms non-blocking remove operations (the same way rmmod does), and add an option to explicity request blocking operation. So if you select blocking operation in modprobe you can still cause the above deadlock, but only if you explicity try (and since root can do any old stupid thing it would like.... :) ).
