[PATCHv4 net-next 0/4] net: add helper support in tc act_ct for ovs offloading

[PATCHv4 net-next 0/4] net: add helper support in tc act_ct for ovs offloading

[Xin Long]

Ilya reported an issue that FTP traffic would be broken when the OVS flow
with ct(commit,alg=ftp) installed in the OVS kernel module, and it was
caused by that TC didn't support the ftp helper offloaded from OVS.

This patchset is to add the helper support in act_ct for OVS offloading
in kernel net/sched.

The 1st and 2nd patches move some common code into nf_conntrack_helper from
openvswitch so that they could be used by net/sched in the 4th patch (Note
there are still some other common code used in both OVS and TC, and I will
extract it in other patches). The 3rd patch extracts another function in
net/sched to make the 4th patch easier to write. The 4th patch adds this
feature in net/sched.

The user space part will be added in another patch, and with it these OVS
flows (FTP over SNAT) can be used to test this feature:

  table=0, in_port=veth1,tcp,tcp_dst=2121,ct_state=-trk \
    actions=ct(table=1, nat), normal
  table=0, in_port=veth2,tcp,ct_state=-trk actions=ct(table=1, nat)
  table=0, in_port=veth1,tcp,ct_state=-trk actions=ct(table=0, nat)
  table=0, in_port=veth1,tcp,ct_state=+trk+rel actions=ct(commit, nat),normal
  table=0, in_port=veth1,tcp,ct_state=+trk+est actions=veth2"

  table=1, in_port=veth1,tcp,tcp_dst=2121,ct_state=+trk+new \
    actions=ct(commit, nat(src=7.7.16.1), alg=ftp),normal"
  table=1, in_port=veth1,tcp,tcp_dst=2121,ct_state=+trk+est actions=veth2"
  table=1, in_port=veth2,tcp,ct_state=+trk+est actions=veth1"

v1->v2:
  - add the 2nd patch to extract nf_ct_add_helper from openvswitch for
    tc act_ct use.
  - go to drop instead of return -EINVAL when fails to add SEQADJ ext in
    tcf_ct_act() as Paolo noticed in the 4th patch.
  - add ct exts only when the ct is not confirmed as Pablo noticed in the
    4th patch.

v2->v3:
  - fix a warning of unused variable 'err' when CONFIG_NF_NAT is disabled
    in 2nd patch.

v3->v4:
  - have the nf_conn and ip_conntrack_info passed into nf_ct_helper() as
    Aaron suggested in the 1st patch.
  - no need to pass the 'force' into tcf_ct_skb_nfct_cached() as Marcelo
    noticed, and remove the unnecessary variable 'force' in tcf_ct_act()
    in the 4th patch.
  - fix a typo err in the cover letter as Marcelo noticed.

[PATCHv4 net-next 1/4] net: move the ct helper function to nf_conntrack_helper for ovs and tc

[Xin Long]

Move ovs_ct_helper from openvswitch to nf_conntrack_helper and rename
as nf_ct_helper so that it can be used in TC act_ct in the next patch.
Note that it also adds the checks for the family and proto, as in TC
act_ct, the packets with correct family and proto are not guaranteed.

[PATCHv4 net-next 4/4] net: sched: add helper support in act_ct

[Xin Long]

This patch is to add helper support in act_ct for OVS actions=ct(alg=xxx)
offloading, which is corresponding to Commit cae3a2627520 ("openvswitch:
Allow attaching helpers to ct action") in OVS kernel part.

The difference is when adding TC actions family and proto cannot be got
from the filter/match, other than helper name in tb[TCA_CT_HELPER_NAME],
we also need to send the family in tb[TCA_CT_HELPER_FAMILY] and the
proto in tb[TCA_CT_HELPER_PROTO] to kernel.
