2014-09-26netfilter: bridge: move br_netfilter out of the corePablo Neira Ayuso
Jesper reported that br_netfilter always registers the hooks since this is part of the bridge core. This harms performance for people that don't need this. This patch modularizes br_netfilter so it can be rmmod'ed, thus, the hooks can be unregistered. I think the bridge netfilter should have been a separated module since the beginning, Patrick agreed on that. Note that this is breaking compatibility for users that expect that bridge netfilter is going to be available after explicitly 'modprobe bridge' or via automatic load through brctl. However, the damage can be easily undone by modprobing br_netfilter. The bridge core also spots a message to provide a clue to people that didn't notice that this has been deprecated. On top of that, the plan is that nftables will not rely on this software layer, but integrate the connection tracking into the bridge layer to enable stateful filtering and NAT, which is was bridge netfilter users seem to require. This patch still keeps the fake_dst_ops in the bridge core, since this is required by when the bridge port is initialized. So we can safely modprobe/rmmod br_netfilter anytime.

2014-09-19netfilter: nf_tables: export rule-set generation IDPablo Neira Ayuso
This patch exposes the ruleset generation ID in three ways: 1) The new command NFT_MSG_GETGEN that exposes the 32-bits ruleset generation ID. This ID is incremented in every commit and it should be large enough to avoid wraparound problems. 2) The less significant 16-bits of the generation ID are exposed through the nfgenmsg->res_id header field. This allows us to quickly catch if the ruleset has change between two consecutive list dumps from different object lists (in this specific case I think the risk of wraparound is unlikely). 3) Userspace subscribers may receive notifications of new rule-set generation after every commit. This also provides an alternative way to monitor the generation ID. If the events are lost, the userspace process hits a overrun error, so it knows that it is working with a stale ruleset anyway. Patrick spotted that rule-set transformations in userspace may take quite some time. In that case, it annotates the 32-bits generation ID before fetching the rule-set, then: 1) it compares it to what we obtain after the transformation to make sure it is not working with a stale rule-set and no wraparound has ocurred. 2) it subscribes to ruleset notifications, so it can watch for new generation ID. This is complementary to the NLM_F_DUMP_INTR approach, which allows us to detect an interference in the middle one single list dumping. There is no way to explicitly check that an interference has occurred between two list dumps from the kernel, since it doesn't know how many lists the userspace client is actually going to dump.

2014-09-18Merge branch 'ipvs-next'Pablo Neira Ayuso
Simon Horman says: ==================== This pull requests makes the following changes: * Add simple weighted fail-over scheduler. - Unlike other IPVS schedulers this offers fail-over rather than load balancing. Connections are directed to the appropriate server based solely on highest weight value and server availability. - Thanks to Kenny Mathis * Support IPv6 real servers in IPv4 virtual-services and vice versa - This feature is supported in conjunction with the tunnel (IPIP) forwarding mechanism. That is, IPv4 may be forwarded in IPv6 and vice versa. - The motivation for this is to allow more flexibility in the choice of IP version offered by both virtual-servers and real-servers as they no longer need to match: An IPv4 connection from an end-user may be forwarded to a real-server using IPv6 and vice versa. - Further work need to be done to support this feature in conjunction with connection synchronisation. For now such configurations are not allowed. - This change includes update to netlink protocol, adding a new destination address family attribute. And the necessary changes to plumb this information throughout IPVS. - Thanks to Alex Gartrell and Julian Anastasov ==================== Signed-off-by: Pablo Neira Ayuso <pablo@netfilter.org>

2014-09-16ipvs: Supply destination address family to ip_vs_conn_newAlex Gartrell
The assumption that dest af is equal to service af is now unreliable, so we must specify it manually so as not to copy just the first 4 bytes of a v6 address or doing an illegal read of 16 butes on a v6 address. We "lie" in two places: for synchronization (which we will explicitly disallow from happening when we have heterogeneous pools) and for black hole addresses where there's no real dest.

This is necessary to support heterogeneous pools. For example, if you have an ipv6 addressed network, you'll want to be able to forward ipv4 traffic into it. This patch enforces that destination address family is the same as service family, as none of the forwarding mechanisms support anything else. For the old setsockopt mechanism, we simply set the dest address family to AF_INET as we do with the service.

Also, we don't get 4-tuple hash for RSS only 2-tuple in this case so all the packets between two hosts are winding up on the same queue.
