[PATCH 1/6] 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.

[PATCH 2/6] netfilter: 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.

[PATCH 3/6] 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.

[PATCH 4/6] 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.

Not sure, I'm currently busy with other things. I'll review these
patches this weekend.

This seems very wrong. Why should the user care about this?

I still don't like this patch very much, its only used for a very
special case and I'm not convinced that reentrancy of TEE'ed packets
is enough justification for this. Perhaps actually getting rid of
the per-cpu copies of the ruleset could convince me :)

Who said every sysfs variable is for end-users?

It will be my pleasure - actually, I have patches for that
just waiting!

I asked about that. It seems like percpu.h puts the variable in an extra 
section and with pretty much #define magic around it (e.g. look at the 
#definition of percpu_set) all of which did not seem necessary to me.

It should avoid having a huge array that bounces between CPUs
since their entries are located next to each other.

Developers, perhaps. Not exporting the parameter is no big deal.

Developers can change it in the source code. Please remove the
parameter and hard code it.

I'll then apply this patch if we can get rid of the ruleset
duplication for each CPU.

Again, please repost patches on updates. I want to see what I'm
applying/pulling.

You must be kidding ;)

percpu access is pretty fast these days, thanks to latest work from
Tejun Heo

On x86, this is one segment override, exactly one byte, to read/write on
a percpu variable. Please try it :)
