NFT_REJECT_ICMPX_MAX should be __NFT_REJECT_ICMPX_MAX - 1.

nft_reject_icmp_code() and nft_reject_icmpv6_code() are called from the
packet path, so BUG_ON in case we try to access an unknown abstracted
ICMP code. This should not happen since we already validate this from
nft_reject_{inet,bridge}_init().

This patch introduces the NFT_REJECT_ICMPX_UNREACH type which provides
an abstraction to the ICMP and ICMPv6 codes that you can use from the
inet and bridge tables, they are:

* NFT_REJECT_ICMPX_NO_ROUTE: no route to host - network unreachable
* NFT_REJECT_ICMPX_PORT_UNREACH: port unreachable
* NFT_REJECT_ICMPX_HOST_UNREACH: host unreachable
* NFT_REJECT_ICMPX_ADMIN_PROHIBITED: administratevely prohibited

You can still use the specific codes when restricting the rule to match
the corresponding layer 3 protocol.

I decided to not overload the existing NFT_REJECT_ICMP_UNREACH to have
different semantics depending on the table family and to allow the user
to specify ICMP family specific codes if they restrict it to the
corresponding family.

<title>netfilter: nf_tables: export rule-set generation ID</title>

<id>84d7fce693884897c6196cc98228a2ad56ae2a9a</id>
<content type='text'>
This patch exposes the ruleset generation ID in three ways:

1) The new command NFT_MSG_GETGEN that exposes the 32-bits ruleset
   generation ID. This ID is incremented in every commit and it
   should be large enough to avoid wraparound problems.

2) The less significant 16-bits of the generation ID are exposed through
   the nfgenmsg-&gt;res_id header field. This allows us to quickly catch
   if the ruleset has change between two consecutive list dumps from
   different object lists (in this specific case I think the risk of
   wraparound is unlikely).

3) Userspace subscribers may receive notifications of new rule-set
   generation after every commit. This also provides an alternative
   way to monitor the generation ID. If the events are lost, the
   userspace process hits a overrun error, so it knows that it is
   working with a stale ruleset anyway.

Patrick spotted that rule-set transformations in userspace may take
quite some time. In that case, it annotates the 32-bits generation ID
before fetching the rule-set, then:

1) it compares it to what we obtain after the transformation to
   make sure it is not working with a stale rule-set and no wraparound
   has ocurred.

2) it subscribes to ruleset notifications, so it can watch for new
   generation ID.

This is complementary to the NLM_F_DUMP_INTR approach, which allows
us to detect an interference in the middle one single list dumping.
There is no way to explicitly check that an interference has occurred
between two list dumps from the kernel, since it doesn't know how
many lists the userspace client is actually going to dump.

Skbinfo extension provides mapping of metainformation with lookup in the ipset tables.
This patch defines the flags, the constants, the functions and the structures
for the data type independent support of the extension.
Note the firewall mark stores in the kernel structures as two 32bit values,
but transfered through netlink as one 64bit value.

The nft_masq expression is intended to perform NAT in the masquerade flavour.

We decided to have the masquerade functionality in a separated expression other
than nft_nat.

Both SNAT and DNAT (and the upcoming masquerade) can have additional
configuration parameters, such as port randomization and NAT addressing
persistence. We can cover these scenarios by simply adding a flag
attribute for userspace to fill when needed.

The flags to use are defined in include/uapi/linux/netfilter/nf_nat.h:

 NF_NAT_RANGE_MAP_IPS
 NF_NAT_RANGE_PROTO_SPECIFIED
 NF_NAT_RANGE_PROTO_RANDOM
 NF_NAT_RANGE_PERSISTENT
 NF_NAT_RANGE_PROTO_RANDOM_FULLY
 NF_NAT_RANGE_PROTO_RANDOM_ALL

The caller must take care of not messing up with the flags, as they are
added unconditionally to the final resulting nf_nat_range.

You can use this to skip accounting objects when listing/resetting
via NFNL_MSG_ACCT_GET/NFNL_MSG_ACCT_GET_CTRZERO messages with the
NLM_F_DUMP netlink flag. The filtering covers the following cases:

1. No filter specified. In this case, the client will get old behaviour,
2. List/reset counter object only: In this case, you have to use
   NFACCT_F_QUOTA as mask and value 0.
3. List/reset quota objects only: You have to use NFACCT_F_QUOTA_PKTS
   as mask and value - the same, for byte based quota mask should be
   NFACCT_F_QUOTA_BYTES and value - the same.

If you want to obtain the object with any quota type
(ie. NFACCT_F_QUOTA_PKTS|NFACCT_F_QUOTA_BYTES), you need to perform
two dump requests, one to obtain NFACCT_F_QUOTA_PKTS objects and
another for NFACCT_F_QUOTA_BYTES.
