lib/vsprintf.c: remove %Z support

2017-02-28T02:43:47+00:00

Now that %z is standartised in C99 there is no reason to support %Z.
Unlike %L it doesn't even make format strings smaller.

Use BUILD_BUG_ON in a couple ATM drivers.

In case anyone didn't notice lib/vsprintf.o is about half of SLUB which
is in my opinion is quite an achievement.  Hopefully this patch inspires
someone else to trim vsprintf.c more.

netfilter: allow logging from non-init namespaces

2017-02-02T13:31:58+00:00

Commit 69b34fb996b2 ("netfilter: xt_LOG: add net namespace support for
xt_LOG") disabled logging packets using the LOG target from non-init
namespaces. The motivation was to prevent containers from flooding
kernel log of the host. The plan was to keep it that way until syslog
namespace implementation allows containers to log in a safe way.

However, the work on syslog namespace seems to have hit a dead end
somewhere in 2013 and there are users who want to use xt_LOG in all
network namespaces. This patch allows to do so by setting

  /proc/sys/net/netfilter/nf_log_all_netns

to a nonzero value. This sysctl is only accessible from init_net so that
one cannot switch the behaviour from inside a container.

xtables: extend matches and targets with .usersize

2017-01-09T16:24:55+00:00

In matches and targets that define a kernel-only tail to their
xt_match and xt_target data structs, add a field .usersize that
specifies up to where data is to be shared with userspace.

Performed a search for comment "Used internally by the kernel" to find
relevant matches and targets. Manually inspected the structs to derive
a valid offsetof.

ebtables: use match, target and data copy_to_user helpers

2017-01-09T16:24:54+00:00

Convert ebtables to copying entries, matches and targets one by one.

The solution is analogous to that of generic xt_(match|target)_to_user
helpers, but is applied to different structs.

Convert existing helpers ebt_make_XXXname helpers that overwrite
fields of an already copy_to_user'd struct with ebt_XXX_to_user
helpers that copy all relevant fields of the struct from scratch.

Replace with globally

2016-12-24T19:46:01+00:00

This was entirely automated, using the script by Al:

  PATT='^[[:blank:]]*#[[:blank:]]*include[[:blank:]]*'
  sed -i -e "s!$PATT!#include !" \
        $(git grep -l "$PATT"|grep -v ^include/linux/uaccess.h)

to do the replacement at the end of the merge window.

netfilter: nf_log: do not assume ethernet header in netdev family

2016-12-04T19:45:33+00:00

In netdev family, we will handle non ethernet packets, so using
eth_hdr(skb)->h_proto is incorrect.

Meanwhile, we can use socket(AF_PACKET...) to sending packets, so
skb->protocol is not always set in bridge family.

Add an extra parameter into nf_log_l2packet to solve this issue.

netfilter: remove hook_entries field from nf_hook_state

2016-11-03T10:52:58+00:00

This field is only useful for nf_queue, so store it in the
nf_queue_entry structure instead, away from the core path. Pass
hook_head to nf_hook_slow().

Since we always have a valid entry on the first iteration in
nf_iterate(), we can use 'do { ... } while (entry)' loop instead.

netfilter: nf_tables: use hook state from xt_action_param structure

2016-11-03T10:52:34+00:00

Don't copy relevant fields from hook state structure, instead use the
one that is already available in struct xt_action_param.

This patch also adds a set of new wrapper functions to fetch relevant
hook state structure fields.

netfilter: x_tables: move hook state into xt_action_param structure

2016-11-03T09:56:21+00:00

Place pointer to hook state in xt_action_param structure instead of
copying the fields that we need. After this change xt_action_param fits
into one cacheline.

This patch also adds a set of new wrapper functions to fetch relevant
hook state structure fields.

netfilter: kill NF_HOOK_THRESH() and state->tresh

2016-11-03T09:56:12+00:00

Patch c5136b15ea36 ("netfilter: bridge: add and use br_nf_hook_thresh")
introduced br_nf_hook_thresh().

Replace NF_HOOK_THRESH() by br_nf_hook_thresh from
br_nf_forward_finish(), so we have no more callers for this macro.

As a result, state->thresh and explicit thresh parameter in the hook
state structure is not required anymore. And we can get rid of
skip-hook-under-thresh loop in nf_iterate() in the core path that is
only used by br_netfilter to search for the filter hook.
