Part of a performance problem with ip_tables is that memory allocation
is not NUMA aware, but 'only' SMP aware (ie each CPU normally touch
separate cache lines)
Even with small iptables rules, the cost of this misplacement can be
high on common workloads. Instead of using one vmalloc() area
(located in the node of the iptables process), we now allocate an area
for each possible CPU, using vmalloc_node() so that memory should be
allocated in the CPU's node if possible.

Around jiffies wrap time (i.e. within first 5 mins after boot), recent
match rules which contain both --seconds and --hitcount arguments
experience false matches.
This is because the last_pkts array is filled with zeros on creation, and
when comparing 'now' to 0 (+ --seconds argument), time_before_eq thinks it
has found a hit.
Below patch adds a break if the packet value is zero. This has the
unfortunate side effect of causing mismatches if a packet was received
when jiffies really was equal to zero. The odds of that happening are
slim compared to the problems caused by not adding the break however.
Plus, the author used this same method just below, so it is "good enough".

Mounting NFS file systems after a (warm) reboot could take a long time if
firewalling and connection tracking was enabled.
The reason is that the NFS clients tends to use the same ports (800 and
counting down). Now on reboot, the server would still have a TCB for an
existing TCP connection client:800 -> server:2049. The client sends a
SYN from port 800 to server:2049, which elicits an ACK from the server.
The firewall on the client drops the ACK because (from its point of
view) the connection is still in half-open state, and it expects to see
a SYNACK.
The client will eventually time out after several minutes.
The following patch corrects this, by accepting ACKs on half open
connections as well.

The existing connection tracking subsystem in netfilter can only
handle ipv4. There were basically two choices present to add
connection tracking support for ipv6. We could either duplicate all
of the ipv4 connection tracking code into an ipv6 counterpart, or (the
choice taken by these patches) we could design a generic layer that
could handle both ipv4 and ipv6 and thus requiring only one sub-protocol
(TCP, UDP, etc.) connection tracking helper module to be written.
In fact nf_conntrack is capable of working with any layer 3
protocol.
The existing ipv4 specific conntrack code could also not deal
with the pecularities of doing connection tracking on ipv6,
which is also cured here. For example, these issues include:
1) ICMPv6 handling, which is used for neighbour discovery in
ipv6 thus some messages such as these should not participate
in connection tracking since effectively they are like ARP
messages
2) fragmentation must be handled differently in ipv6, because
the simplistic "defrag, connection track and NAT, refrag"
(which the existing ipv4 connection tracking does) approach simply
isn't feasible in ipv6
3) ipv6 extension header parsing must occur at the correct spots
before and after connection tracking decisions, and there were
no provisions for this in the existing connection tracking
design
4) ipv6 has no need for stateful NAT
The ipv4 specific conntrack layer is kept around, until all of
the ipv4 specific conntrack helpers are ported over to nf_conntrack
and it is feature complete. Once that occurs, the old conntrack
stuff will get placed into the feature-removal-schedule and we will
fully kill it off 6 months later.

I've found the problem in general. It affects any 64-bit
architecture. The problem occurs when you change the system time.
Suppose that when you boot your system clock is forward by a day.
This gets recorded down in skb_tv_base. You then wind the clock back
by a day. From that point onwards the offset will be negative which
essentially overflows the 32-bit variables they're stored in.
In fact, why don't we just store the real time stamp in those 32-bit
variables? After all, we're not going to overflow for quite a while
yet.
When we do overflow, we'll need a better solution of course.

When you've enabled conntrack and NAT as a module (standard case in all
distributions), and you've also enabled the new conntrack netlink
interface, loading ip_conntrack_netlink.ko will auto-load iptable_nat.ko.
This causes a huge performance penalty, since for every packet you iterate
the nat code, even if you don't want it.
This patch splits iptable_nat.ko into the NAT core (ip_nat.ko) and the
iptables frontend (iptable_nat.ko). Threfore, ip_conntrack_netlink.ko will
only pull ip_nat.ko, but not the frontend. ip_nat.ko will "only" allocate
some resources, but not affect runtime performance.
This separation is also a nice step in anticipation of new packet filters
(nf-hipac, ipset, pkttables) being able to use the NAT core.

This patch fixes a number of bugs. It cannot be reasonably split up in
multiple fixes, since all bugs interact with each other and affect the same
function:
Bug #1:
The event cache code cannot be called while a lock is held. Therefore, the
call to ip_conntrack_event_cache() within ip_ct_refresh_acct() needs to be
moved outside of the locked section. This fixes a number of 2.6.14-rcX
oops and deadlock reports.
Bug #2:
We used to call ct_add_counters() for unconfirmed connections without
holding a lock. Since the add operations are not atomic, we could race
with another CPU.
Bug #3:
ip_ct_refresh_acct() lost REFRESH events in some cases where refresh
(and the corresponding event) are desired, but no accounting shall be
performed. Both, evenst and accounting implicitly depended on the skb
parameter bein non-null. We now re-introduce a non-accounting
"ip_ct_refresh()" variant to explicitly state the desired behaviour.

Instead of maintaining an array containing a list of nodes this instance
is responsible for let's use a simple bitmap. This provides the
following features:
* clusterip_responsible() and the add_node()/delete_node() operations
become very simple and don't need locking
* the config structure is much smaller
In spite of the completely different internal data representation the
user-space interface remains almost unchanged; the only difference is
that the proc file does not list nodes in the order they were added.
(The target info structure remains the same.)

The CLUSTERIP target creates a procfs entry for all different cluster
IPs. Although more than one rules can refer to a single cluster IP (and
thus a single config structure), removal of the procfs entry is done
unconditionally in destroy(). In more complicated situations involving
deferred dereferencing of the config structure by procfs and creating a
new rule with the same cluster IP it's also possible that no entry will
be created for the new rule.
This patch fixes the problem by counting the number of entries
referencing a given config structure and moving the config list
manipulation and procfs entry deletion parts to the
clusterip_config_entry_put() function.

Currently conntracks are inserted after the head. That means that

list_for_each(i, &ip_conntrack_hash[cb->args[0]]) {

ct = tuplehash_to_ctrack(h);
if (ct->id <= *id)

As discussed at netconf'05, we're trying to save every bit in sk_buff.
The patch below makes sk_buff 8 bytes smaller. I did some basic
testing on my notebook and it seems to work.
The only real in-tree user of nfcache was IPVS, who only needs a
single bit. Unfortunately I couldn't find some other free bit in
sk_buff to stuff that bit into, so I introduced a separate field for
them. Maybe the IPVS guys can resolve that to further save space.
Initially I wanted to shrink pkt_type to three bits (PACKET_HOST and
alike are only 6 values defined), but unfortunately the bluetooth code
overloads pkt_type :(
The conntrack-event-api (out-of-tree) uses nfcache, but Rusty just
came up with a way how to do it without any skb fields, so it's safe
to remove it.
- remove all never-implemented 'nfcache' code
- don't have ipvs code abuse 'nfcache' field. currently get's their own
compile-conditional skb->ipvs_property field. IPVS maintainers can
decide to move this bit elswhere, but nfcache needs to die.
- remove skb->nfcache field to save 4 bytes
- move skb->nfctinfo into three unused bits to save further 4 bytes

With the introduction of 'rustynat' in 2.6.11, the old tricks of preventing
NAT of 'untracked' connections (e.g. NOTRACK target in 'raw' table) are no
longer sufficient.
The ip_conntrack_untracked.status |= IPS_NAT_DONE_MASK effectively
prevents iteration of the 'nat' table, but doesn't prevent nat_packet()

If a connection tracking helper tells us to expect a connection, and
we're already expecting that connection, we simply free the one they
gave us and return success.
The problem is that NAT helpers (eg. FTP) have to allocate the
expectation first (to see what port is available) then rewrite the
packet. If that rewrite fails, they try to remove the expectation,
but it was freed in ip_conntrack_expect_related.
This is one example of a larger problem: having registered the
expectation, the pointer is no longer ours to use. Reference counting
is needed for ctnetlink anyway, so introduce it now.
To have a single "put" path, we need to grab the reference to the
connection on creation, rather than open-coding it in the caller.

When we have ip_queue being used from LOCAL_IN, then we end up with a
situation where the verdicts coming back from userspace traverse the TCP
input path from syscall context. While this seems to work most of the
time, there's an ugly deadlock:
syscall context is interrupted by the timer interrupt. When the timer
interrupt leaves, the timer softirq get's scheduled and calls
tcp_delack_timer() and alike. They themselves do bh_lock_sock(sk),
which is already held from somewhere else -> boom.

Let's recap the problem. The current asynchronous netlink kernel
message processing is vulnerable to these attacks:
1) Hit and run: Attacker sends one or more messages and then exits
before they're processed. This may confuse/disable the next netlink
user that gets the netlink address of the attacker since it may
receive the responses to the attacker's messages.
Proposed solutions:
a) Synchronous processing.
b) Stream mode socket.
c) Restrict/prohibit binding.
2) Starvation: Because various netlink rcv functions were written
to not return until all messages have been processed on a socket,
it is possible for these functions to execute for an arbitrarily
long period of time. If this is successfully exploited it could
also be used to hold rtnl forever.
Proposed solutions:
a) Synchronous processing.
b) Stream mode socket.
Firstly let's cross off solution c). It only solves the first
problem and it has user-visible impacts. In particular, it'll
break user space applications that expect to bind or communicate
with specific netlink addresses (pid's).
So we're left with a choice of synchronous processing versus
SOCK_STREAM for netlink.
For the moment I'm sticking with the synchronous approach as
suggested by Alexey since it's simpler and I'd rather spend
my time working on other things.
However, it does have a number of deficiencies compared to the
stream mode solution:
1) User-space to user-space netlink communication is still vulnerable.
2) Inefficient use of resources. This is especially true for rtnetlink
since the lock is shared with other users such as networking drivers.
The latter could hold the rtnl while communicating with hardware which
causes the rtnetlink user to wait when it could be doing other things.
3) It is still possible to DoS all netlink users by flooding the kernel
netlink receive queue. The attacker simply fills the receive socket
with a single netlink message that fills up the entire queue. The
attacker then continues to call sendmsg with the same message in a loop.
Point 3) can be countered by retransmissions in user-space code, however
it is pretty messy.
In light of these problems (in particular, point 3), we should implement
stream mode netlink at some point. In the mean time, here is a patch
that implements synchronous processing.

In the event a raw socket is created for sending purposes only, the creator
never bothers to check the socket's receive queue. But we continue to
add skbs to its queue until it fills up.
Unfortunately, if ip_conntrack is loaded on the box, each skb we add to the
queue potentially holds a reference to a conntrack. If the user attempts
to unload ip_conntrack, we will spin around forever since the queued skbs
are pinned.

The NAT changes in 2.6.11 changed the position where helpers
are called and perform packet mangling. Before 2.6.11, a NAT
helper was called before the packet was NATed and had its
sequence number adjusted. Since 2.6.11, the helpers get packets
with already adjusted sequence numbers.
This breaks sequence number adjustment, adjust_tcp_sequence()
needs the original sequence number to determine whether
a packet was a retransmission and to store it for further
corrections. It can't be reconstructed without more information
than available, so this patch restores the old order by
calling helpers from a new conntrack hook two priorities
below ip_conntrack_confirm() and adjusting the sequence number
from a new NAT hook one priority below ip_conntrack_confirm().

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.
Let it rip!
