nft_genmask_cur has already done left-shift operator on the gencursor,
so there's no need to do left-shift operator on it again.

When we add a nft rule like follows:
  # nft add rule filter test tcp dport vmap {1: jump test}
-ELOOP error will be returned, and the anonymous set will be
destroyed.

But after that, nf_tables_abort will also try to remove the
element and destroy the set, which was already destroyed and
freed.

If we add a nft wrong rule, nft_tables_abort will do the cleanup
work rightly, so nf_tables_set_destroy call here is redundant and
wrong, remove it.

Liping Zhang says:

"Users may add such a wrong nft rules successfully, which will cause an
endless jump loop:

  # nft add rule filter test tcp dport vmap {1: jump test}

This is because before we commit, the element in the current anonymous
set is inactive, so osp-&gt;walk will skip this element and miss the
validate check."

To resolve this problem, this patch passes the generation mask to the
walk function through the iter container structure depending on the code
path:

1) If we're dumping the elements, then we have to check if the element
   is active in the current generation. Thus, we check for the current
   bit in the genmask.

2) If we're checking for loops, then we have to check if the element is
   active in the next generation, as we're in the middle of a
   transaction. Thus, we check for the next bit in the genmask.

Based on original patch from Liping Zhang.

<title>ipvs: update real-server binding of outgoing connections in SIP-pe</title>
<updated>2016-06-06T00:47:25+00:00</updated>

<name>Marco Angaroni</name>

<link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='https://git.tavy.me/linux.git/commit/?id=3ec10d3a2ba591c87da94219c1e46b02ae97757a'/>
<id>3ec10d3a2ba591c87da94219c1e46b02ae97757a</id>
<content type='text'>
Previous patch that introduced handling of outgoing packets in SIP
persistent-engine did not call ip_vs_check_template() in case packet was
matching a connection template. Assumption was that real-server was
healthy, since it was sending a packet just in that moment.

There are however real-server fault conditions requiring that association
between call-id and real-server (represented by connection template)
gets updated. Here is an example of the sequence of events:
  1) RS1 is a back2back user agent that handled call-id1 and call-id2
  2) RS1 is down and was marked as unavailable
  3) new message from outside comes to IPVS with call-id1
  4) IPVS reschedules the message to RS2, which becomes new call handler
  5) RS2 forwards the message outside, translating call-id1 to call-id2
  6) inside pe-&gt;conn_out() IPVS matches call-id2 with existing template
  7) IPVS does not change association call-id2 &lt;-&gt; RS1
  8) new message comes from client with call-id2
  9) IPVS reschedules the message to a real-server potentially different
     from RS2, which is now the correct destination

This patch introduces ip_vs_check_template() call in the handling of
outgoing packets for SIP-pe. And also introduces a second optional
argument for ip_vs_check_template() that allows to check if dest
associated to a connection template is the same dest that was identified
as the source of the packet. This is to change the real-server bound to a
particular call-id independently from its availability status: the idea
is that it's more reliable, for in-&gt;out direction (where internal
network can be considered trusted), to always associate a call-id with
the last real-server that used it in one of its messages. Think about
above sequence of events where, just after step 5, RS1 returns instead
to be available.

Comparison of dests is done by simply comparing pointers to struct
ip_vs_dest; there should be no cases where struct ip_vs_dest keeps its
memory address, but represent a different real-server in terms of
ip-address / port.

Quoting John Stultz:
  In updating a 32bit arm device from 4.6 to Linus' current HEAD, I
  noticed I was having some trouble with networking, and realized that
  /proc/net/ip_tables_names was suddenly empty.
  Digging through the registration process, it seems we're catching on the:

   if (strcmp(t-&gt;u.user.name, XT_STANDARD_TARGET) == 0 &amp;&amp;
       target_offset + sizeof(struct xt_standard_target) != next_offset)
         return -EINVAL;

  Where next_offset seems to be 4 bytes larger then the
  offset + standard_target struct size.

next_offset needs to be aligned via XT_ALIGN (so we can access all members
of ip(6)t_entry struct).

This problem didn't show up on i686 as it only needs 4-byte alignment for
u64, but iptables userspace on other 32bit arches does insert extra padding.

Netfilter fixes for net

The following patchset contains Netfilter fixes for your net tree,
they are:

1) Fix incorrect timestamp in nfnetlink_queue introduced when addressing
   y2038 safe timestamp, from Florian Westphal.

2) Get rid of leftover conntrack definition from the previous merge
   window, oneliner from Florian.

3) Make nf_queue handler pernet to resolve race on dereferencing the
   hook state structure with netns removal, from Eric Biederman.

4) Ensure clean exit on unregistered helper ports, from Taehee Yoo.

5) Restore FLOWI_FLAG_KNOWN_NH in nf_dup_ipv6. This got lost while
   generalizing xt_TEE to add packet duplication support in nf_tables,
   from Paolo Abeni.

6) Insufficient netlink NFTA_SET_TABLE attribute check in
   nf_tables_getset(), from Phil Turnbull.

7) Reject helper registration on duplicated ports via modparams.

Don't allow registration of helpers using the same tuple:

	{ l3proto, l4proto, src-port }

We lookup for the helper from the packet path using this tuple through
__nf_ct_helper_find(). Therefore, we have to avoid having two helpers
with the same tuple to ensure predictible behaviour.

Don't compare the helper string names anymore since it is valid to
register two helpers with the same name, but using different tuples.
This is also implicitly fixing up duplicated helper registration via
ports= modparam since the name comparison was defeating the tuple
duplication validation.
