Subject: [PATCH -next] netfilter: nfqueue: don't use prev pointer
Date: Fri,  9 Oct 2015 13:10:37 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1444389037-17285-1-git-send-email-fw@strlen.de> (raw)

Usage of -prev seems buggy.  While packet was out our hook cannot be
removed but we have no way to know if the previous one is still valid.

So better not use ->prev at all.  Since NF_REPEAT just asks to invoke
same hook function again, just do so, and continue with nf_interate
if we get an ACCEPT verdict.

A side effect of this change is that if nf_reinject(NF_REPEAT) causes
another REPEAT we will now drop the skb instead of a kernel loop.

However, NF_REPEAT loops would be a bug so this should not happen anyway.

Targetting -next: on -nf we need to s/elem->priv/elem/, else oops.

I tested this with nf-queue.c from libnetfilter_queue, changed to issue
NF_REPEAT + NFMARK=1 and
-m mark --mark 1 -j ACCEPT
-j NFQUEUE

-> ping works, both rule counters increment.
