User-space programs that receive traffic via NFQUEUE may mangle packets. If NAT is enabled, this usually puzzles sequence tracking, leading to traffic disruptions. With this patch, nfnl_queue will make the corresponding NAT TCP sequence adjustment if: 1) The packet has been mangled, 2) the NFQA_CFG_F_CONNTRACK flag has been set, and 3) NAT is detected. There are some records on the Internet complaning about this issue: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/260757/packet-mangling-utilities-besides-iptables By now, we only support TCP since we have no helpers for DCCP or SCTP. Better to add this if we ever have some helper over those layer 4 protocols. Signed-off-by: Pablo Neira Ayuso <pablo@netfilter.org>

This patch allows you to include the conntrack information together with the packet that is sent to user-space via NFQUEUE. Previously, there was no integration between ctnetlink and nfnetlink_queue. If you wanted to access conntrack information from your libnetfilter_queue program, you required to query ctnetlink from user-space to obtain it. Thus, delaying the packet processing even more. Including the conntrack information is optional, you can set it via NFQA_CFG_F_CONNTRACK flag with the new NFQA_CFG_FLAGS attribute. Signed-off-by: Pablo Neira Ayuso <pablo@netfilter.org>

This patch uses the new variable length conntrack extensions. Instead of using union nf_conntrack_help that contain all the helper private data information, we allocate variable length area to store the private helper data. This patch includes the modification of all existing helpers. It also includes a couple of include header to avoid compilation warnings. Signed-off-by: Pablo Neira Ayuso <pablo@netfilter.org>

We can now define conntrack extensions of variable size. This patch is useful to get rid of these unions: union nf_conntrack_help union nf_conntrack_proto union nf_conntrack_nat_help Signed-off-by: Pablo Neira Ayuso <pablo@netfilter.org>

This patch modifies the struct nf_conntrack_helper to allocate the room for the helper name. The maximum length is 16 bytes (this was already introduced in 2.6.24). For the maximum length for expectation policy names, I have also selected 16 bytes. This patch is required by the follow-up patch to support user-space connection tracking helpers.

Routing of 127/8 is tradtionally forbidden, we consider packets from that address block martian when routing and do not process corresponding ARP requests. This is a sane default but renders a huge address space practically unuseable. The RFC states that no address within the 127/8 block should ever appear on any network anywhere but it does not forbid the use of such addresses outside of the loopback device in particular. For example to address a pool of virtual guests behind a load balancer. This patch adds a new interface option 'route_localnet' enabling routing of the 127/8 address block and processing of ARP requests on a specific interface. Note that for the feature to work, the default local route covering 127/8 dev lo needs to be removed. Example: $ sysctl -w net.ipv4.conf.eth0.route_localnet=1 $ ip route del 127.0.0.0/8 dev lo table local $ ip addr add 127.1.0.1/16 dev eth0 $ ip route flush cache V2: Fix invalid check to auto flush cache (thanks davem) Signed-off-by: Thomas Graf <tgraf@suug.ch> Acked-by: Neil Horman <nhorman@tuxdriver.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

If no peer actually gets attached (either because create is zero or the peer allocation fails) we'll trigger a BUG because we unconditionally do an rt{,6}_peer_ptr() afterwards. Fix this by guarding it with the proper check. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

Currently 4 channels are scanned per scan command. if scan request is issued by user during Tx traffic, radio will be out of channel for "4 * per_chan_scan_time" for each scan command and will not be able to receive Rx packets. This adds delay in data traffic. We can minimize it by reducing number of channels scanned per scan command in this scenario. We can not always scan 1 channel per scan command due to limitation of number of command buffers. So we add code to decide number of channels scanned per scan command in associated state.

If scan operation is started when Tx traffic is already running, driver locks Tx queue until it gets completed. With this logic there is a delay for Tx packets. This patch implements new approach to give Tx path higher priority in this case. Driver internally sends multiple synchronous scan commands to firmware when scan is requested by user. Now we will make sure that Tx queue is empty everytime before sending next scan command. If Tx queue isn't empty scan command will be postponsed by 20msec. This rule will be followed until Tx queue becomes empty or timeout of 1 second happens. In case of timeout scan operation will be aborted.

Currently the scan time per channel for active scanning is set to 200ms. It takes quite a while to finsh scanning on all channels, especially with a dual band configuration. Change the per channel scan time settings to the following values: passive scan: 110ms active scan: 30ms specific scan: 30ms Above settings have been tested on x86 and arm platforms.

We handle NULL in rt{,6}_set_peer but then our caller will try to pass that NULL pointer into inet_putpeer() which isn't ready for it.

This implementation can deal with having many inetpeer roots, which is a necessary prerequisite for per-FIB table rooted peer tables. Each family (AF_INET, AF_INET6) has a sequence number which we bump when we get a family invalidation request. Each peer lookup cheaply checks whether the flush sequence of the root we are using is out of date, and if so flushes it and updates the sequence number. Signed-off-by: David S.

There is zero point to this function. It's only real substance is to perform an extremely outdated BSD4.2 ICMP check, which we can safely remove. If you really have a MTU limited link being routed by a BSD4.2 derived system, here's a nickel go buy yourself a real router. The other actions of ip_rt_frag_needed(), checking and conditionally updating the peer, are done by the per-protocol handlers of the ICMP event. TCP, UDP, et al. have a handler which will receive this event and transmit it back into the associated route via dst_ops->update_pmtu(). This simplification is important, because it eliminates the one place where we do not have a proper route context in which to make an inetpeer lookup. Signed-off-by: David S.

We encode the pointer(s) into an unsigned long with one state bit. The state bit is used so we can store the inetpeer tree root to use when resolving the peer later. Later the peer roots will be per-FIB table, and this change works to facilitate that. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

Since it's guarenteed that we will access the inetpeer if we're trying to do timewait recycling and TCP options were enabled on the connection, just cache the peer in the timewait socket. In the future, inetpeer lookups will be context dependent (per routing realm), and this helps facilitate that as well. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

The get_peer method TCP uses is full of special cases that make no sense accommodating, and it also gets in the way of doing more reasonable things here. First of all, if the socket doesn't have a usable cached route, there is no sense in trying to optimize timewait recycling. Likewise for the case where we have IP options, such as SRR enabled, that make the IP header destination address (and thus the destination address of the route key) differ from that of the connection's destination address. Just return a NULL peer in these cases, and thus we're also able to get rid of the clumsy inetpeer release logic. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

There's a lot of places that open-code rt{,6}_get_peer() only because they want to set 'create' to one. So add an rt{,6}_get_peer_create() for their sake. There were also a few spots open-coding plain rt{,6}_get_peer() and those are transformed here as well. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

/proc/net/unix has quadratic behavior, and can hold unix_table_lock for a while if high number of unix sockets are alive. (90 ms for 200k sockets...) We already have a hash table, so its quite easy to use it. Problem is unbound sockets are still hashed in a single hash slot (unix_socket_table[UNIX_HASH_TABLE]) This patch also spreads unbound sockets to 256 hash slots, to speedup both /proc/net/unix and unix_diag. Time to read /proc/net/unix with 200k unix sockets : (time dd if=/proc/net/unix of=/dev/null bs=4k) before : 520 secs after : 2 secs Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@google.com> Cc: Steven Whitehouse <swhiteho@redhat.com> Cc: Pavel Emelyanov <xemul@parallels.com> Signed-off-by: David S.
