2011-12-25netfilter: xtables: add nfacct match to support extended accountingPablo Neira Ayuso
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.

2011-12-23netfilter: xt_connbytes: handle negation correctlyFlorian Westphal
"! --connbytes 23:42" should match if the packet/byte count is not in range. As there is no explict "invert match" toggle in the match structure, userspace swaps the from and to arguments (i.e., as if "--connbytes 42:23" were given). However, "what <= 23 && what >= 42" will always be false. Change things so we use "||" in case "from" is larger than "to". This change may look like it breaks backwards compatibility when "to" is 0. However, older iptables binaries will refuse "connbytes 42:0", and current releases treat it to mean "! --connbytes 0:42", so we should be fine.

2011-12-23netfilter: rework user-space expectation helper supportPablo Neira Ayuso
This partially reworks bc01befdcf3e40979eb518085a075cbf0aacede0 which added userspace expectation support. This patch removes the nf_ct_userspace_expect_list since now we force to use the new iptables CT target feature to add the helper extension for conntracks that have attached expectations from userspace. A new version of the proof-of-concept code to implement userspace helpers from userspace is available at: http://people.netfilter.org/pablo/userspace-conntrack-helpers/nf-ftp-helper-POC.tar.bz2 This patch also modifies the CT target to allow to set the conntrack's userspace helper status flags. This flag is used to tell the conntrack system to explicitly allocate the helper extension. This helper extension is useful to link the userspace expectations with the master conntrack that is being tracked from one userspace helper. This feature fixes a problem in the current approach of the userspace helper support. Basically, if the master conntrack that has got a userspace expectation vanishes, the expectations point to one invalid memory address. Thus, triggering an oops in the expectation deletion event path. I decided not to add a new revision of the CT target because I only needed to add a new flag for it. I'll document in this issue in the iptables manpage. I have also changed the return value from EINVAL to EOPNOTSUPP if one flag not supported is specified. Thus, in the future adding new features that only require a new flag can be added without a new revision. There is no official code using this in userspace (apart from the proof-of-concept) that uses this infrastructure but there will be some by beginning 2012.

Setting a large rps_flow_cnt like (1 << 30) on 32-bit platform will cause a kernel oops due to insufficient bounds checking. if (count > 1<<30) { /* Enforce a limit to prevent overflow */ return -EINVAL; } count = roundup_pow_of_two(count); table = vmalloc(RPS_DEV_FLOW_TABLE_SIZE(count)); Note that the macro RPS_DEV_FLOW_TABLE_SIZE(count) is defined as: ... + (count * sizeof(struct rps_dev_flow)) where sizeof(struct rps_dev_flow) is 8. (1 << 30) * 8 will overflow 32 bits. This patch replaces the magic number (1 << 30) with a symbolic bound.

A known Out Of Order (OOO) problem hurts SFQ when timer changes perturbation value, since all new packets delivered to SFQ enqueue might end on different slots than previous in-flight packets. With round robin delivery, we can thus deliver packets in a different order. Since SFQ is limited to small amount of in-flight packets, we can rehash packets so that this OOO problem is fixed. This rehashing is performed only if internal flow classifier is in use. We now store in skb->cb[] the "struct flow_keys" so that we dont call skb_flow_dissect() again while rehashing.

2011-12-20sctp: Do not account for sizeof(struct sk_buff) in estimated rwndThomas Graf
When checking whether a DATA chunk fits into the estimated rwnd a full sizeof(struct sk_buff) is added to the needed chunk size. This quickly exhausts the available rwnd space and leads to packets being sent which are much below the PMTU limit. This can lead to much worse performance. The reason for this behaviour was to avoid putting too much memory pressure on the receiver. The concept is not completely irational because a Linux receiver does in fact clone an skb for each DATA chunk delivered. However, Linux also reserves half the available socket buffer space for data structures therefore usage of it is already accounted for. When proposing to change this the last time it was noted that this behaviour was introduced to solve a performance issue caused by rwnd overusage in combination with small DATA chunks. Trying to reproduce this I found that with the sk_buff overhead removed, the performance would improve significantly unless socket buffer limits are increased. The following numbers have been gathered using a patched iperf supporting SCTP over a live 1 Gbit ethernet network. The -l option was used to limit DATA chunk sizes. The numbers listed are based on the average of 3 test runs each. Default values have been used for sk_(r|w)mem.

2011-12-19module_param: make bool parameters really bool (net & drivers/net)Rusty Russell
module_param(bool) used to counter-intuitively take an int. In fddd5201 (mid-2009) we allowed bool or int/unsigned int using a messy trick. It's time to remove the int/unsigned int option. For this version it'll simply give a warning, but it'll break next kernel version. (Thanks to Joe Perches for suggesting coccinelle for 0/1 -> true/false). Cc: "David S.

2011-12-19sctp: fix incorrect overflow check on autocloseXi Wang
Commit 8ffd3208 voids the previous patches f6778aab and 810c0719 for limiting the autoclose value. If userspace passes in -1 on 32-bit platform, the overflow check didn't work and autoclose would be set to 0xffffffff. This patch defines a max_autoclose (in seconds) for limiting the value and exposes it through sysctl, with the following intentions. 1) Avoid overflowing autoclose * HZ. 2) Keep the default autoclose bound consistent across 32- and 64-bit platforms (INT_MAX / HZ in this patch). 3) Keep the autoclose value consistent between setsockopt() and getsockopt() calls.
