====================
nf-next pull request

The following patchset contains Netfilter/IPVS updates for your
net-next tree. Regarding nf_tables, most updates focus on consolidating
the NAT infrastructure and adding support for masquerading. More
specifically, they are:

1) use __u8 instead of u_int8_t in arptables header, from
   Mike Frysinger.

2) Add support to match by skb->pkttype to the meta expression, from
   Ana Rey.

3) Add support to match by cpu to the meta expression, also from
   Ana Rey.

4) A smatch warning about IPSET_ATTR_MARKMASK validation, patch from
   Vytas Dauksa.

5) Fix netnet and netportnet hash types the range support for IPv4,
   from Sergey Popovich.

6) Fix missing-field-initializer warnings resolved, from Mark Rustad.

7) Dan Carperter reported possible integer overflows in ipset, from
   Jozsef Kadlecsick.

8) Filter out accounting objects in nfacct by type, so you can
   selectively reset quotas, from Alexey Perevalov.

9) Move specific NAT IPv4 functions to the core so x_tables and
   nf_tables can share the same NAT IPv4 engine.

10) Use the new NAT IPv4 functions from nft_chain_nat_ipv4.

11) Move specific NAT IPv6 functions to the core so x_tables and
    nf_tables can share the same NAT IPv4 engine.

12) Use the new NAT IPv6 functions from nft_chain_nat_ipv6.

13) Refactor code to add nft_delrule(), which can be reused in the
    enhancement of the NFT_MSG_DELTABLE to remove a table and its
    content, from Arturo Borrero.

14) Add a helper function to unregister chain hooks, from
    Arturo Borrero.

15) A cleanup to rename to nft_delrule_by_chain for consistency with
    the new nft_*() functions, also from Arturo.

16) Add support to match devgroup to the meta expression, from Ana Rey.

17) Reduce stack usage for IPVS socket option, from Julian Anastasov.

18) Remove unnecessary textsearch state initialization in xt_string,
    from Bojan Prtvar.

19) Add several helper functions to nf_tables, more work to prepare
    the enhancement of NFT_MSG_DELTABLE, again from Arturo Borrero.

20) Enhance NFT_MSG_DELTABLE to delete a table and its content, from
    Arturo Borrero.

21) Support NAT flags in the nat expression to indicate the flavour,
    eg. random fully, from Arturo.

22) Add missing audit code to ebtables when replacing tables, from
    Nicolas Dichtel.

23) Generalize the IPv4 masquerading code to allow its re-use from
    nf_tables, from Arturo.

24) Generalize the IPv6 masquerading code, also from Arturo.

25) Add the new masq expression to support IPv4/IPv6 masquerading
    from nf_tables, also from Arturo.

netfilter: nf_tables: add new nft_masq expression

2014-09-09T14:31:30+00:00

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.

netfilter: nf_nat: generalize IPv6 masquerading support for nf_tables

2014-09-09T14:31:29+00:00

Let's refactor the code so we can reach the masquerade functionality
from outside the xt context (ie. nftables).

The patch includes the addition of an atomic counter to the masquerade
notifier: the stuff to be done by the notifier is the same for xt and
nftables. Therefore, only one notification handler is needed.

This factorization only involves IPv6; a similar patch exists to
handle IPv4.

netfilter: move NAT Kconfig switches out of the iptables scope

2014-08-18T19:55:54+00:00

Currently, the NAT configs depend on iptables and ip6tables. However,
users should be capable of enabling NAT for nft without having to
switch on iptables.

Fix this by adding new specific IP_NF_NAT and IP6_NF_NAT config
switches for iptables and ip6tables NAT support. I have also moved
the original NF_NAT_IPV4 and NF_NAT_IPV6 configs out of the scope
of iptables to make them independent of it.

This patch also adds NETFILTER_XT_NAT which selects the xt_nat
combo that provides snat/dnat for iptables. We cannot use NF_NAT
anymore since nf_tables can select this.

netfilter: log: split family specific code to nf_log_{ip,ip6,common}.c files

2014-06-27T11:19:59+00:00

The plain text logging is currently embedded into the xt_LOG target.
In order to be able to use the plain text logging from nft_log, as a
first step, this patch moves the family specific code to the following
files and Kconfig symbols:

1) net/ipv4/netfilter/nf_log_ip.c: CONFIG_NF_LOG_IPV4
2) net/ipv6/netfilter/nf_log_ip6.c: CONFIG_NF_LOG_IPV6
3) net/netfilter/nf_log_common.c: CONFIG_NF_LOG_COMMON

These new modules will be required by xt_LOG and nft_log. This patch
is based on original patch from Arturo Borrero Gonzalez.

netfilter: nft_reject: split up reject module into IPv4 and IPv6 specifc parts

2014-02-06T08:44:10+00:00

Currently the nft_reject module depends on symbols from ipv6. This is
wrong since no generic module should force IPv6 support to be loaded.
Split up the module into AF-specific and a generic part.

netfilter: nf_tables: Add support for IPv6 NAT

2013-10-14T16:00:58+00:00

This patch generalizes the NAT expression to support both IPv4 and IPv6
using the existing IPv4/IPv6 NAT infrastructure. This also adds the
NAT chain type for IPv6.

This patch collapses the following patches that were posted to the
netfilter-devel mailing list, from Tomasz:

* nf_tables: Change NFTA_NAT_ attributes to better semantic significance
* nf_tables: Split IPv4 NAT into NAT expression and IPv4 NAT chain
* nf_tables: Add support for IPv6 NAT expression
* nf_tables: Add support for IPv6 NAT chain
* nf_tables: Fix up build issue on IPv6 NAT support

And, from Pablo Neira Ayuso:

* fix missing dependencies in nft_chain_nat

netfilter: nf_tables: convert built-in tables/chains to chain types

2013-10-14T15:16:11+00:00

This patch converts built-in tables/chains to chain types that
allows you to deploy customized table and chain configurations from
userspace.

After this patch, you have to specify the chain type when
creating a new chain:

 add chain ip filter output { type filter hook input priority 0; }
                              ^^^^ ------

The existing chain types after this patch are: filter, route and
nat. Note that tables are just containers of chains with no specific
semantics, which is a significant change with regards to iptables.

netfilter: add nftables

2013-10-14T15:15:48+00:00

This patch adds nftables which is the intended successor of iptables.
This packet filtering framework reuses the existing netfilter hooks,
the connection tracking system, the NAT subsystem, the transparent
proxying engine, the logging infrastructure and the userspace packet
queueing facilities.

In a nutshell, nftables provides a pseudo-state machine with 4 general
purpose registers of 128 bits and 1 specific purpose register to store
verdicts. This pseudo-machine comes with an extensible instruction set,
a.k.a. "expressions" in the nftables jargon. The expressions included
in this patch provide the basic functionality, they are:

* bitwise: to perform bitwise operations.
* byteorder: to change from host/network endianess.
* cmp: to compare data with the content of the registers.
* counter: to enable counters on rules.
* ct: to store conntrack keys into register.
* exthdr: to match IPv6 extension headers.
* immediate: to load data into registers.
* limit: to limit matching based on packet rate.
* log: to log packets.
* meta: to match metainformation that usually comes with the skbuff.
* nat: to perform Network Address Translation.
* payload: to fetch data from the packet payload and store it into
  registers.
* reject (IPv4 only): to explicitly close connection, eg. TCP RST.

Using this instruction-set, the userspace utility 'nft' can transform
the rules expressed in human-readable text representation (using a
new syntax, inspired by tcpdump) to nftables bytecode.

nftables also inherits the table, chain and rule objects from
iptables, but in a more configurable way, and it also includes the
original datatype-agnostic set infrastructure with mapping support.
This set infrastructure is enhanced in the follow up patch (netfilter:
nf_tables: add netlink set API).

This patch includes the following components:

* the netlink API: net/netfilter/nf_tables_api.c and
  include/uapi/netfilter/nf_tables.h
* the packet filter core: net/netfilter/nf_tables_core.c
* the expressions (described above): net/netfilter/nft_*.c
* the filter tables: arp, IPv4, IPv6 and bridge:
  net/ipv4/netfilter/nf_tables_ipv4.c
  net/ipv6/netfilter/nf_tables_ipv6.c
  net/ipv4/netfilter/nf_tables_arp.c
  net/bridge/netfilter/nf_tables_bridge.c
* the NAT table (IPv4 only):
  net/ipv4/netfilter/nf_table_nat_ipv4.c
* the route table (similar to mangle):
  net/ipv4/netfilter/nf_table_route_ipv4.c
  net/ipv6/netfilter/nf_table_route_ipv6.c
* internal definitions under:
  include/net/netfilter/nf_tables.h
  include/net/netfilter/nf_tables_core.h
* It also includes an skeleton expression:
  net/netfilter/nft_expr_template.c
  and the preliminary implementation of the meta target
  net/netfilter/nft_meta_target.c

It also includes a change in struct nf_hook_ops to add a new
pointer to store private data to the hook, that is used to store
the rule list per chain.

This patch is based on the patch from Patrick McHardy, plus merged
