net: openvswitch: fix misuse of the cached connection on tuple changes

2022-06-09T03:49:52+00:00

If packet headers changed, the cached nfct is no longer relevant
for the packet and attempt to re-use it leads to the incorrect packet
classification.

This issue is causing broken connectivity in OpenStack deployments
with OVS/OVN due to hairpin traffic being unexpectedly dropped.

The setup has datapath flows with several conntrack actions and tuple
changes between them:

  actions:ct(commit,zone=8,mark=0/0x1,nat(src)),
          set(eth(src=00:00:00:00:00:01,dst=00:00:00:00:00:06)),
          set(ipv4(src=172.18.2.10,dst=192.168.100.6,ttl=62)),
          ct(zone=8),recirc(0x4)

After the first ct() action the packet headers are almost fully
re-written.  The next ct() tries to re-use the existing nfct entry
and marks the packet as invalid, so it gets dropped later in the
pipeline.

Clearing the cached conntrack entry whenever packet tuple is changed
to avoid the issue.

The flow key should not be cleared though, because we should still
be able to match on the ct_state if the recirculation happens after
the tuple change but before the next ct() action.

openvswitch: always update flow key after nat

2022-03-22T05:29:10+00:00

During NAT, a tuple collision may occur.  When this happens, openvswitch
will make a second pass through NAT which will perform additional packet
modification.  This will update the skb data, but not the flow key that
OVS uses.  This means that future flow lookups, and packet matches will
have incorrect data.  This has been supported since
5d50aa83e2c8 ("openvswitch: support asymmetric conntrack").

That commit failed to properly update the sw_flow_key attributes, since
it only called the ovs_ct_nat_update_key once, rather than each time
ovs_ct_nat_execute was called.  As these two operations are linked, the
ovs_ct_nat_execute() function should always make sure that the
sw_flow_key is updated after a successful call through NAT infrastructure.

====================
Netfilter updates for net-next

The following patchset contains Netfilter updates for net-next. This
includes one patch to update ovs and act_ct to use nf_ct_put() instead
of nf_conntrack_put().

1) Add netns_tracker to nfnetlink_log and masquerade, from Eric Dumazet.

2) Remove redundant rcu read-size lock in nf_tables packet path.

3) Replace BUG() by WARN_ON_ONCE() in nft_payload.

4) Consolidate rule verdict tracing.

5) Replace WARN_ON() by WARN_ON_ONCE() in nf_tables core.

6) Make counter support built-in in nf_tables.

7) Add new field to conntrack object to identify locally generated
   traffic, from Florian Westphal.

8) Prevent NAT from shadowing well-known ports, from Florian Westphal.

9) Merge nf_flow_table_{ipv4,ipv6} into nf_flow_table_inet, also from
   Florian.

10) Remove redundant pointer in nft_pipapo AVX2 support, from Colin Ian King.

11) Replace opencoded max() in conntrack, from Jiapeng Chong.

12) Update conntrack to use refcount_t API, from Florian Westphal.

13) Move ip_ct_attach indirection into the nf_ct_hook structure.

14) Constify several pointer object in the netfilter codebase,
    from Florian Westphal.

15) Tree-wide replacement of nf_conntrack_put() by nf_ct_put(), also
    from Florian.

16) Fix egress splat due to incorrect rcu notation, from Florian.

17) Move stateful fields of connlimit, last, quota, numgen and limit
    out of the expression data area.

18) Build a blob to represent the ruleset in nf_tables, this is a
    requirement of the new register tracking infrastructure.

19) Add NFT_REG32_NUM to define the maximum number of 32-bit registers.

20) Add register tracking infrastructure to skip redundant
    store-to-register operations, this includes support for payload,
    meta and bitwise expresssions.

net: prefer nf_ct_put instead of nf_conntrack_put

2022-01-09T22:30:14+00:00

Its the same as nf_conntrack_put(), but without the
need for an indirect call.  The downside is a module dependency on
nf_conntrack, but all of these already depend on conntrack anyway.

netfilter: conntrack: convert to refcount_t api

2022-01-09T22:30:13+00:00

Convert nf_conn reference counting from atomic_t to refcount_t based api.
refcount_t api provides more runtime sanity checks and will warn on
certain constructs, e.g. refcount_inc() on a zero reference count, which
usually indicates use-after-free.

For this reason template allocation is changed to init the refcount to
1, the subsequenct add operations are removed.

Likewise, init_conntrack() is changed to set the initial refcount to 1
instead refcount_inc().

This is safe because the new entry is not (yet) visible to other cpus.

openvswitch: fix send of uninitialized stack memory in ct limit reply

2021-04-05T19:54:42+00:00

'struct ovs_zone_limit' has more members than initialized in
ovs_ct_limit_get_default_limit().  The rest of the memory is a random
kernel stack content that ends up being sent to userspace.

Fix that by using designated initializer that will clear all
non-specified fields.
