We want to be able to enable/disable IP packet defrag from core
bpf/netfilter code. In other words, execute code from core that could
possibly be built as a module.

To help avoid symbol resolution errors, use glue hooks that the modules
will register callbacks with during module init.

icmp/icmp6 matches are baked into ip(6)_tables.ko.

This means that even if iptables-nft is used, a rule like
"-p icmp --icmp-type 1" will load the ip(6)tables modules.

Move them to xt_tcpdudp.ko instead to avoid this.

This will also allow to eventually add kconfig knobs to build kernels
that support iptables-nft but not iptables-legacy (old set/getsockopt
interface).

The xtables packet traverser performs an unconditional local_bh_disable(),
but the nf_tables evaluation loop does not.

Functions that are called from either xtables or nftables must assume
that they can be called in process context.

inet_twsk_deschedule_put() assumes that no softirq interrupt can occur.
If tproxy is used from nf_tables its possible that we'll deadlock
trying to aquire a lock already held in process context.

Add a small helper that takes care of this and use it.

Here is the stack where we allocate percpu counter block:

  +-&lt; __alloc_percpu
    +-&lt; xt_percpu_counter_alloc
      +-&lt; find_check_entry # {arp,ip,ip6}_tables.c
        +-&lt; translate_table

And it can be leaked on this code path:

  +-&gt; ip6t_register_table
    +-&gt; translate_table # allocates percpu counter block
    +-&gt; xt_register_table # fails

there is no freeing of the counter block on xt_register_table fail.
Note: xt_percpu_counter_free should be called to free it like we do in
do_replace through cleanup_entry helper (or in __ip6t_unregister_table).

Probability of hitting this error path is low AFAICS (xt_register_table
can only return ENOMEM here, as it is not replacing anything, as we are
creating new netns, and it is hard to imagine that all previous
allocations succeeded and after that one in xt_register_table failed).
But it's worth fixing even the rare leak.

We are not allowed to return an error at this point.
Looking at the code it looks like ret is always 0 at this
point, but its not.

t = find_table_lock(net, repl-&gt;name, &amp;ret, &amp;ebt_mutex);

... this can return a valid table, with ret != 0.

This bug causes update of table-&gt;private with the new
blob, but then frees the blob right away in the caller.

Syzbot report:

iptables/nftables support responding to tcp packets with tcp resets.

The generated tcp reset packet passes through both output and postrouting
netfilter hooks, but conntrack will never see them because the generated
skb has its -&gt;nfct pointer copied over from the packet that triggered the
reset rule.

If the reset rule is used for established connections, this
may result in the conntrack entry to be around for a very long
time (default timeout is 5 days).

One way to avoid this would be to not copy the nf_conn pointer
so that the rest packet passes through conntrack too.

Problem is that output rules might not have the same conntrack
zone setup as the prerouting ones, so its possible that the
reset skb won't find the correct entry.  Generating a template
entry for the skb seems error prone as well.

Add an explicit "closing" function that switches a confirmed
conntrack entry to closed state and wire this up for tcp.

If the entry isn't confirmed, no action is needed because
the conntrack entry will never be committed to the table.

Marked as 'to be removed soon' since kernel 4.1 (2015).
Functionality was superseded by the 'cluster' match, added in kernel
2.6.30 (2009).

clusterip_tg_check still has races that can give

 proc_dir_entry 'ipt_CLUSTERIP/10.1.1.2' already registered

followed by a WARN splat.

Remove it instead of trying to fix this up again.
clusterip uapi header is left as-is for now.
