netfilter: nf_tables: limit allowed range via nla_policy

2023-06-26T06:05:57+00:00

These NLA_U32 types get stored in u8 fields, reject invalid values
instead of silently casting to u8.

netfilter: nf_tables: Extend nft_expr_ops::dump callback parameters

2022-11-15T09:46:34+00:00

Add a 'reset' flag just like with nft_object_ops::dump. This will be
useful to reset "anonymous stateful objects", e.g. simple rule counters.

No functional change intended.

netfilter: nf_tables: upfront validation of data via nft_data_init()

2022-08-09T18:13:29+00:00

Instead of parsing the data and then validate that type and length are
correct, pass a description of the expected data so it can be validated
upfront before parsing it to bail out earlier.

This patch adds a new .size field to specify the maximum size of the
data area. The .len field is optional and it is used as an input/output
field, it provides the specific length of the expected data in the input
path. If then .len field is not specified, then obtained length from the
netlink attribute is stored. This is required by cmp, bitwise, range and
immediate, which provide no netlink attribute that describes the data
length. The immediate expression uses the destination register type to
infer the expected data type.

Relying on opencoded validation of the expected data might lead to
subtle bugs as described in 7e6bc1f6cabc ("netfilter: nf_tables:
stricter validation of element data").

netfilter: nf_tables: do not reduce read-only expressions

2022-03-19T23:29:46+00:00

Skip register tracking for expressions that perform read-only operations
on the registers. Define and use a cookie pointer NFT_REDUCE_READONLY to
avoid defining stubs for these expressions.

This patch re-enables register tracking which was disabled in ed5f85d42290
("netfilter: nf_tables: disable register tracking"). Follow up patches
add remaining register tracking for existing expressions.

netfilter: nftables: add nft_parse_register_load() and use it

2021-01-27T21:53:29+00:00

This new function combines the netlink register attribute parser
and the load validation function.

This update requires to replace:

	enum nft_registers      sreg:8;

in many of the expression private areas otherwise compiler complains
with:

	error: cannot take address of bit-field ‘sreg’

when passing the register field as reference.

netfilter: nf_tables: validate NFT_DATA_VALUE after nft_data_init()

2019-12-09T12:14:03+00:00

Userspace might bogusly sent NFT_DATA_VERDICT in several netlink
attributes that assume NFT_DATA_VALUE. Moreover, make sure that error
path invokes nft_data_release() to decrement the reference count on the
chain object.

netfilter: nf_tables: add direct calls for all builtin expressions

2019-01-18T14:02:33+00:00

With CONFIG_RETPOLINE its faster to add an if (ptr == &foo_func)
check and and use direct calls for all the built-in expressions.

~15% improvement in pathological cases.

checkpatch doesn't like the X macro due to the embedded return statement,
but the macro has a very limited scope so I don't think its a problem.

I would like to avoid bugs of the form
  If (e->ops->eval == (unsigned long)nft_foo_eval)
	 nft_bar_eval();

and open-coded if ()/else if()/else cascade, thus the macro.

netfilter: nf_tables: revisit chain/object refcounting from elements

2017-05-15T10:51:41+00:00

Andreas reports that the following incremental update using our commit
protocol doesn't work.

 # nft -f incremental-update.nft
 delete element ip filter client_to_any { 10.180.86.22 : goto CIn_1 }
 delete chain ip filter CIn_1
 ... Error: Could not process rule: Device or resource busy

The existing code is not well-integrated into the commit phase protocol,
since element deletions do not result in refcount decrement from the
preparation phase. This results in bogus EBUSY errors like the one
above.

Two new functions come with this patch:

* nft_set_elem_activate() function is used from the abort path, to
  restore the set element refcounting on objects that occurred from
  the preparation phase.

* nft_set_elem_deactivate() that is called from nft_del_setelem() to
  decrement set element refcounting on objects from the preparation
  phase in the commit protocol.

The nft_data_uninit() has been renamed to nft_data_release() since this
function does not uninitialize any data store in the data register,
instead just releases the references to objects. Moreover, a new
function nft_data_hold() has been introduced to be used from
nft_set_elem_activate().

2016-12-03T17:29:53+00:00

Couple conflicts resolved here:

1) In the MACB driver, a bug fix to properly initialize the
   RX tail pointer properly overlapped with some changes
   to support variable sized rings.

2) In XGBE we had a "CONFIG_PM" --> "CONFIG_PM_SLEEP" fix
   overlapping with a reorganization of the driver to support
   ACPI, OF, as well as PCI variants of the chip.

3) In 'net' we had several probe error path bug fixes to the
   stmmac driver, meanwhile a lot of this code was cleaned up
   and reorganized in 'net-next'.

4) The cls_flower classifier obtained a helper function in
   'net-next' called __fl_delete() and this overlapped with
   Daniel Borkamann's bug fix to use RCU for object destruction
   in 'net'.  It also overlapped with Jiri's change to guard
   the rhashtable_remove_fast() call with a check against
   tc_skip_sw().

5) In mlx4, a revert bug fix in 'net' overlapped with some
   unrelated changes in 'net-next'.

6) In geneve, a stale header pointer after pskb_expand_head()
   bug fix in 'net' overlapped with a large reorganization of
   the same code in 'net-next'.  Since the 'net-next' code no
   longer had the bug in question, there was nothing to do
   other than to simply take the 'net-next' hunks.
