Subject: [PATCH]extensions/tos_values.c mask value not accurate in certain condition
Date: Tue, 02 Nov 2010 13:26:41 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <4CCFA111.8090001@oracle.com> (raw)
scene:
# iptables -V
iptables v1.4.10
# iptables -v -t mangle -A MANGLE_OUTPUT -p tcp --dport 20 -j TOS
--set-tos 8
TOS tcp opt -- in * out * 0.0.0.0/0 -> 0.0.0.0/0 tcp dpt:20 TOS set
0x08/0xff
# iptables -v -t mangle -A MANGLE_OUTPUT -p tcp --dport 20 -j TOS
--set-tos Maximize-Throughput
TOS tcp opt -- in * out * 0.0.0.0/0 -> 0.0.0.0/0 tcp dpt:20 TOS set
0x08/0x3f
mask value is different for the same tos value. This is because below
code piece:
static bool tos_parse_numeric(const char *str, struct tos_value_mask *tvm,
unsigned int bits)
{
const unsigned int max = (1 << bits) - 1;
......
tvm->mask = max;
......
static bool tos_parse_symbolic(const char *str, struct tos_value_mask *tvm,
unsigned int def_mask)
{
const unsigned int max = UINT8_MAX;
const struct tos_symbol_info *symbol;
char *tmp;
if (xtables_strtoui(str, &tmp, NULL, 0, max))
return tos_parse_numeric(str, tvm, max);
/* Do not consider ECN bits */
tvm->mask = def_mask;
.......
For tos value 8, bits shift lead to a overflow and trim, so the mask is
0xff no matter what the def_mask is.
For tos symbol Maximize-Throughput, tvm->mask got def_mask 0x3f.
