<title>netfilter: add nf_ipv6_ops hook to fix xt_addrtype with IPv6</title>

Quoting https://bugzilla.netfilter.org/show_bug.cgi?id=812:

[ ip6tables -m addrtype ]
When I tried to use in the nat/PREROUTING it messes up the
routing cache even if the rule didn't matched at all.
[..]
If I remove the --limit-iface-in from the non-working scenario, so just
use the -m addrtype --dst-type LOCAL it works!

This happens when LOCAL type matching is requested with --limit-iface-in,
and the default ipv6 route is via the interface the packet we test
arrived on.

Because xt_addrtype uses ip6_route_output, the ipv6 routing implementation
creates an unwanted cached entry, and the packet won't make it to the
real/expected destination.

Silently ignoring --limit-iface-in makes the routing work but it breaks
rule matching (--dst-type LOCAL with limit-iface-in is supposed to only
match if the dst address is configured on the incoming interface;
without --limit-iface-in it will match if the address is reachable
via lo).

The test should call ipv6_chk_addr() instead.  However, this would add
a link-time dependency on ipv6.

There are two possible solutions:

1) Revert the commit that moved ipt_addrtype to xt_addrtype,
   and put ipv6 specific code into ip6t_addrtype.
2) add new "nf_ipv6_ops" struct to register pointers to ipv6 functions.

While the former might seem preferable, Pablo pointed out that there
are more xt modules with link-time dependeny issues regarding ipv6,
so lets go for 2).

Add copyright statements to all netfilter files which have had significant
changes done by myself in the past.

Some notes:

- nf_conntrack_ecache.c was incorrectly attributed to Rusty and Netfilter
  Core Team when it got split out of nf_conntrack_core.c. The copyrights
  even state a date which lies six years before it was written. It was
  written in 2005 by Harald and myself.

- net/ipv{4,6}/netfilter.c, net/netfitler/nf_queue.c were missing copyright
  statements. I've added the copyright statement from net/netfilter/core.c,
  where this code originated

- for nf_conntrack_proto_tcp.c I've also added Jozsef, since I didn't want
  it to give the wrong impression

Propagate routing errors from ip_route_me_harder() when dropping a packet
using NF_DROP_ERR(). This makes userspace get the proper error instead of
EPERM for everything.

# ip -6 r a unreachable default table 100
# ip -6 ru add fwmark 0x1 lookup 100
# ip6tables -t mangle -A OUTPUT -d 2001:4860:4860::8888 -j MARK --set-mark 0x1

Old behaviour:

PING 2001:4860:4860::8888(2001:4860:4860::8888) 56 data bytes
ping: sendmsg: Operation not permitted
ping: sendmsg: Operation not permitted
ping: sendmsg: Operation not permitted

New behaviour:

PING 2001:4860:4860::8888(2001:4860:4860::8888) 56 data bytes
ping: sendmsg: Network is unreachable

Several callers (h323 conntrack, xt_addrtype) assume that the
returned **dst only needs to be released if the function returns 0.

This is true for the ipv4 implementation, but not for the ipv6 one.

Instead of changing the users, change the ipv6 implementation
to behave like the ipv4 version by only providing the dst_entry result
in the success case.

ipv6 fib lookup can set RT6_LOOKUP_F_IFACE flag to restrict search
to an interface, but this flag cannot be set via struct flowi.

Also, it cannot be set via ip6_route_output: this function uses the
passed sock struct to determine if this flag is required
(by testing for nonzero sk_bound_dev_if).

Work around this by passing in an artificial struct sk in case
'strict' argument is true.

This is required to replace the rt6_lookup call in xt_addrtype.c with
nf_afinfo-&gt;route().
