openvswitch: Remove incorrect WARN_ONCE().

2016-08-03T18:50:40+00:00

ovs_ct_find_existing() issues a warning if an existing conntrack entry
classified as IP_CT_NEW is found, with the premise that this should
not happen.  However, a newly confirmed, non-expected conntrack entry
remains IP_CT_NEW as long as no reply direction traffic is seen.  This
has resulted into somewhat confusing kernel log messages.  This patch
removes this check and warning.

netfilter: conntrack: support a fixed size of 128 distinct labels

2016-07-22T15:04:55+00:00

The conntrack label extension is currently variable-sized, e.g. if
only 2 labels are used by iptables rules then the labels->bits[] array
will only contain one element.

We track size of each label storage area in the 'words' member.

But in nftables and openvswitch we always have to ask for worst-case
since we don't know what bit will be used at configuration time.

As most arches are 64bit we need to allocate 24 bytes in this case:

struct nf_conn_labels {
    u8            words;   /*     0     1 */
    /* XXX 7 bytes hole, try to pack */
    long unsigned bits[2]; /*     8     24 */

Make bits a fixed size and drop the words member, it simplifies
the code and only increases memory requirements on x86 when
less than 64bit labels are required.

We still only allocate the extension if its needed.

openvswitch: fix conntrack netlink event delivery

2016-06-29T12:13:59+00:00

Only the first and last netlink message for a particular conntrack are
actually sent. The first message is sent through nf_conntrack_confirm when
the conntrack is committed. The last one is sent when the conntrack is
destroyed on timeout. The other conntrack state change messages are not
advertised.

When the conntrack subsystem is used from netfilter, nf_conntrack_confirm
is called for each packet, from the postrouting hook, which in turn calls
nf_ct_deliver_cached_events to send the state change netlink messages.

This commit fixes the problem by calling nf_ct_deliver_cached_events in the
non-commit case as well.

openvswitch: Only set mark and labels with a commit flag.

2016-06-25T15:55:51+00:00

Only set conntrack mark or labels when the commit flag is specified.
This makes sure we can not set them before the connection has been
persisted, as in that case the mark and labels would be lost in an
event of an userspace upcall.

OVS userspace already requires the commit flag to accept setting
ct_mark and/or ct_labels.  Validate for this in the kernel API.

openvswitch: Set mark and labels before confirming.

Set conntrack mark and labels right before committing so that
the initial conntrack NEW event has the mark and labels.

The nf_conntrack_core.c fix in 'net' is not relevant in 'net-next'
because we no longer have a per-netns conntrack hash.

The ip_gre.c conflict as well as the iwlwifi ones were cases of
overlapping changes.

openvswitch: Fix cached ct with helper.

2016-05-11T19:14:56+00:00

When using conntrack helpers from OVS, a common configuration is to
perform a lookup without specifying a helper, then go through a
firewalling policy, only to decide to attach a helper afterwards.

In this case, the initial lookup will cause a ct entry to be attached to
the skb, then the later commit with helper should attach the helper and
confirm the connection. However, the helper attachment has been missing.
If the user has enabled automatic helper attachment, then this issue
will be masked as it will be applied in init_conntrack(). It is also
masked if the action is executed from ovs_packet_cmd_execute() as that
will construct a fresh skb.

This patch fixes the issue by making an explicit call to try to assign
the helper if there is a discrepancy between the action's helper and the
current skb->nfct.

openvswitch: __nf_ct_l{3,4}proto_find() always return a valid pointer

If the protocol is not natively supported, this assigns generic protocol
tracker so we can always assume a valid pointer after these calls.

====================
Netfilter updates for net-next

The following patchset contains Netfilter updates for your net-next
tree, mostly from Florian Westphal to sort out the lack of sufficient
validation in x_tables and connlabel preparation patches to add
nf_tables support. They are:

1) Ensure we don't go over the ruleset blob boundaries in
   mark_source_chains().

2) Validate that target jumps land on an existing xt_entry. This extra
   sanitization comes with a performance penalty when loading the ruleset.

3) Introduce xt_check_entry_offsets() and use it from {arp,ip,ip6}tables.

4) Get rid of the smallish check_entry() functions in {arp,ip,ip6}tables.

5) Make sure the minimal possible target size in x_tables.

6) Similar to #3, add xt_compat_check_entry_offsets() for compat code.

7) Check that standard target size is valid.

8) More sanitization to ensure that the target_offset field is correct.

9) Add xt_check_entry_match() to validate that matches are well-formed.

10-12) Three patch to reduce the number of parameters in
    translate_compat_table() for {arp,ip,ip6}tables by using a container
    structure.

13) No need to return value from xt_compat_match_from_user(), so make
    it void.

14) Consolidate translate_table() so it can be used by compat code too.

15) Remove obsolete check for compat code, so we keep consistent with
    what was already removed in the native layout code (back in 2007).

16) Get rid of target jump validation from mark_source_chains(),
    obsoleted by #2.

17) Introduce xt_copy_counters_from_user() to consolidate counter
    copying, and use it from {arp,ip,ip6}tables.

18,22) Get rid of unnecessary explicit inlining in ctnetlink for dump
    functions.

19) Move nf_connlabel_match() to xt_connlabel.

20) Skip event notification if connlabel did not change.

21) Update of nf_connlabels_get() to make the upcoming nft connlabel
    support easier.

23) Remove spinlock to read protocol state field in conntrack.
