[PATCH 1/5] netfilter: ipv6: move POSTROUTING invocation before fragmentation

[Jan Engelhardt]

Patrick McHardy notes: "We used to invoke IPv4 POST_ROUTING after
fragmentation as well just to defragment the packets in conntrack
immediately afterwards, but that got changed during the
netfilter-ipsec integration. Ideally IPv6 would behave like IPv4."

This patch makes it so. Sending an oversized frame (e.g. `ping6
-s64000 -c1 ::1`) will now show up in POSTROUTING as a single skb
rather than multiple ones.

Looks good to me. I'll wait until next week in case anyone
else has comments on this patch.

[PATCH 2/5] net: ipv6: add IPSKB_REROUTED exclusion to NF_HOOK/POSTROUTING invocation

[Jan Engelhardt]

Similar to how IPv4's ip_output.c works, have ip6_output also check
the IPSKB_REROUTED flag. It will be set from xt_TEE for cloned packets
since Xtables can currently only deal with a single packet in flight
at a time.

I defer to ipv6 experts as to whether this will cause trouble
or not.

If they are fine with it, feel free to add my:

Acked-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

and this can go in via the nf tree along with the other changes in
this set.

Thanks.

[PATCH 3/5] netfilter: xtables: inclusion of xt_TEE

[Jan Engelhardt]

xt_TEE can be used to clone and reroute a packet. This can for
example be used to copy traffic at a router for logging purposes
to another dedicated machine.

I'm not sure you really should set iif here. We usually (tunnels, REJECT

So without conntrack, people may create loops? If that's the case,
I'd suggest to simply forbid TEE'ing packets to loopback. That
doesn't seem to be very useful anyways.

Shouldn't this only be done in PRE_ROUTING/INPUT as stated above?

If you use TEE in PREROUTING or INPUT, teeing acts more like FORWARD than
OUTPUT, though. All TEE does is lookup a route to a new fl.dst, but it keeps
the original src address in fl.src, so if somebody has some source-based policy
routing, it could suddenly behave different. What do you think?

We are looking at a historic piece of code - and comments, which
traces back to when xt_NOTRACK was still in POM.

{
    →   /* Previously seen (loopback)? Ignore. */
    →   if ((*pskb)->nfct != NULL)
    →       →   return IPT_CONTINUE;

    →   /* Attach fake conntrack entry.·
    →      If there is a real ct entry correspondig to this packet,·
    →      it'll hang aroun till timing out. We don't deal with it
    →      for performance reasons. JK */
    →   (*pskb)->nfct = &ip_conntrack_untracked.infos[IP_CT_NEW];
    →   nf_conntrack_get((*pskb)->nfct);

    →   return IPT_CONTINUE;
}

Let's look at the condition "skb->nfct == &tee_track.ct_general" in detail. An
skb can only already have tee_track when it has been teed.

The teed packet however never traversed Xtables at all. Of course that changes
once the nesting patch is applied. But was someone really thinking of this, 6
years ago?

That actually made me wonder and dig in history, and it turns out that
ipt_ROUTE allowed the packet to be fed back into netif_rx (commit
bee4e80167e3d024bdb80f400f4ecc8de47cfb03 in pom-ng.git), which would
explain all the loopback stuff. Since modern xt_TEE does not do
that evil thing, the comment is a walnut-hard remainder of past times.

I shall remove it now that it has been spotted.

The csum needs to be recomputed due to the addition of the DF flag.

That might make it unnessarily complicated to use src-based routing
when using TEE. I guess you'd usually have a host for logging or IDS
somewhere on a private network and TEE packets there. So specifying
oif and gateway seems most useful to me.

Yeah, but currently it does allow packets to be looped back. These
packets will also go through the netfilter hooks again.

[PATCH 4/5] netfilter: xtables2: make ip_tables reentrant

[Jan Engelhardt]

Currently, the table traverser stores return addresses in the ruleset
itself (struct ip6t_entry->comefrom). This has a well-known drawback:
the jumpstack is overwritten on reentry, making it necessary for
targets to return absolute verdicts. Also, the ruleset (which might
be heavy memory-wise) needs to be replicated for each CPU that can
possibly invoke ip6t_do_table.

This patch decouples the jumpstack from struct ip6t_entry and instead
puts it into xt_table_info. Not being restricted by 'comefrom'
anymore, we can set up a stack as needed. By default, there is room
allocated for two entries into the traverser. The setting is
configurable at runtime through sysfs and will take effect when a
table is replaced by a new one.

arp_tables is not touched though, because there is just one/two
modules and further patches seek to collapse the table traverser
anyhow.

That sounds dangerous if conntrack isn't used to prevent loops.
Is that really useful? For filtering, you can simply apply the
rules before deciding to TEE the packet.

Conntrack loops are prevented by using a dummy conntrack, just as 
NOTRACK does.

I can think of a handful of applications:
 - CLASSIFY

 - When the cloned packets gets XFRMed or tunneled, its status switches 
   from "special" to "plain". Doing policy routing on them does not seem 
   so far-fetched.

My question was about the case without conntrack.

Good point, you should probably reset a couple of skb members
after the skb_copy().

Fair enough, provided we can also handle loops when conntrack
isn't used.

Hm. Do you have any suggestion in countering a case whereby a user
does -I OUTPUT -j TEE without conntrack?

Perhaps making nesting a feature that requires conntrack, such that the 
non-CT case can't loop?

I take it you mean

 nf_reset(skb)
 skb->mark = 0;
 skb_init_secmark(nskb);

Or should we be using skb_alloc and copying the data portion over, like 
ipt_REJECT does since v2.6.24-2931-g9ba99b0?

If we drop the reentrancy thing, what should work is to prevent
using loopback as output device and using something similar to
the recursion counters tunnel devices used to have.

Yes, basically. Although I believe the selinux people would be
happier if you kept the original secmark for the copied packets :)

I guess pskb_copy() would be most optimal since we can modify
the header, but the non-linear area could be shared

Nah. I'm going to pick a bit from struct skbuff to indicate the
packet was teed so as to avoid that loop.

That's a bad idea, we shouldn't be adding new skb members for something
as peripheral as this module.

What's wrong with adding a reentrancy counter?

I would have done this, which does not add a member:

	IP6CB(skb)->flags |= IPSKB_CLONED;

>What's wrong with adding a reentrancy counter?

Sounds like a plan.

This doesn't work, the CB is not preserved across layers
(which f.i. matters if you allow loopback destinations).
Its also not preserved for clones.

Should we be using a percpu variable, or is a simplistic
array ok too?

static bool tee_active;

target(...)
{
	if (tee_active[smp_processor_id()])
		return XT_CONTINUE;
	...
	if (tee_tg4_route(...)) {

Trying to improve my understanding: when doing skb_pull,
does the skb->head that is relevant for pskb_copy move?

skb_pull() only changes skb->data.

But how does it interact, with, say, xt_TCPMSS which modifies not
only the L3 header, but also the L4 header?
