netfilter: ebtables: Simplify the arguments to ebt_do_table

2015-09-18T19:57:35+00:00

Nearly everything thing of interest to ebt_do_table is already present
in nf_hook_state.  Simplify ebt_do_table by just passing in the skb,
nf_hook_state, and the table.  This make the code easier to read and
maintenance easier.

To support this create an nf_hook_state on the stack in ebt_broute
(the only caller without a nf_hook_state already available).  This new
nf_hook_state adds no new computations to ebt_broute, but does use a
few more bytes of stack.

uapi: ebtables: don't include linux/if.h

2015-04-13T18:08:38+00:00

linux/if.h creates conflicts in userspace with net/if.h

By using it here we force userspace to use linux/if.h while
net/if.h may be needed.

Note that:

include/linux/netfilter_ipv4/ip_tables.h and
include/linux/netfilter_ipv6/ip6_tables.h

don't include linux/if.h and they also refer to IFNAMSIZ, so they are
expecting userspace to include use net/if.h from the client program.

UAPI: Remove empty non-UAPI Kbuild files

2012-10-17T11:31:15+00:00

Remove non-UAPI Kbuild files that have become empty as a result of UAPI
disintegration.  They used to have only header-y lines in them and those have
now moved to the Kbuild files in the corresponding uapi/ directories.

Possibly these should not be removed but rather have a comment inserted to say
they are intentionally left blank.  This would make it easier to add generated
header lines in future without having to restore the infrastructure.

Note that at this point not all the UAPI disintegration parts have been merged,
so it is likely that more empty Kbuild files will turn up.

It is probably necessary to make the files non-empty to prevent the patch
program from automatically deleting them when it reduces them to nothing.

netfilter: ebtables: fix alignment problem in ppc

2012-02-21T12:29:06+00:00

ebt_among extension of ebtables uses __alignof__(_xt_align) while the
corresponding kernel module uses __alignof__(ebt_replace) to determine
the alignment in EBT_ALIGN().

These are the results of these values on different platforms:

x86 x86_64 ppc
__alignof__(_xt_align) 4 8 8
__alignof__(ebt_replace) 4 8 4

ebtables fails to add rules which use the among extension.

I'm using kernel 2.6.33 and ebtables 2.0.10-4

According to Bart De Schuymer, userspace alignment was changed to
_xt_align to fix an alignment issue on a userspace32-kernel64 system
(he thinks it was for an ARM device). So userspace must be right.
The kernel alignment macro needs to change so it also uses _xt_align
instead of ebt_replace. The userspace changes date back from
June 29, 2009.
