Tom Herbert says: ==================== flow_dissector: Flow dissector fixes This patch set fixes some basic issues with __skb_flow_dissect function. Items addressed: - Cleanup control flow in the function; in particular eliminate a bunch of goto's and implement a simplified control flow model - Add limits for number of encapsulations and headers that can be dissected v2: - Simplify the logic for limits on flow dissection. Just set the limit based on the number of headers the flow dissector can processes. The accounted headers includes encapsulation headers, extension headers, or other shim headers. Tested: Ran normal traffic, GUE, and VXLAN traffic. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

In flow dissector there are no limits to the number of nested encapsulations or headers that might be dissected which makes for a nice DOS attack. This patch sets a limit of the number of headers that flow dissector will parse. Headers includes network layer headers, transport layer headers, shim headers for encapsulation, IPv6 extension headers, etc. The limit for maximum number of headers to parse has be set to fifteen to account for a reasonable number of encapsulations, extension headers, VLAN, in a packet. Note that this limit does not supercede the STOP_AT_* flags which may stop processing before the headers limit is reached.

__skb_flow_dissect is riddled with gotos that make discerning the flow, debugging, and extending the capability difficult. This patch reorganizes things so that we only perform goto's after the two main switch statements (no gotos within the cases now). It also eliminates several goto labels so that there are only two labels that can be target for goto.

Pablo Neira Ayuso says: ==================== Netfilter updates for next-net (part 2) The following patchset contains Netfilter updates for net-next. This patchset includes updates for nf_tables, removal of CONFIG_NETFILTER_DEBUG and a new mode for xt_hashlimit. More specifically, they: 1) Add new rate match mode for hashlimit, this introduces a new revision for this match. The idea is to stop matching packets until ratelimit criteria stands true. Patch from Vishwanath Pai. 2) Add ->select_ops indirection to nf_tables named objects, so we can choose between different flavours of the same object type, patch from Pablo M. Bermudo. 3) Shorter function names in nft_limit, basically: s/nft_limit_pkt_bytes/nft_limit_bytes, also from Pablo M. Bermudo. 4) Add new stateful limit named object type, this allows us to create limit policies that you can identify via name, also from Pablo. 5) Remove unused hooknum parameter in conntrack ->packet indirection. From Florian Westphal. 6) Patches to remove CONFIG_NETFILTER_DEBUG and macros such as IP_NF_ASSERT and IP_NF_ASSERT. From Varsha Rao. 7) Add nf_tables_updchain() helper function and use it from nf_tables_newchain() to make it more maintainable. Similarly, add nf_tables_addchain() and use it too. 8) Add new netlink NLM_F_NONREC flag, this flag should only be used for deletion requests, specifically, to support non-recursive deletion. Based on what we discussed during NFWS'17 in Faro. 9) Use NLM_F_NONREC from table and sets in nf_tables. 10) Support for recursive chain deletion. Table and set deletion commands come with an implicit content flush on deletion, while chains do not. This patch addresses this inconsistency by adding the code to perform recursive chain deletions. This also comes with the bits to deal with the new NLM_F_NONREC netlink flag. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

Pablo Neira Ayuso authored
This patch sorts out an asymmetry in deletions. Currently, table and set deletion commands come with an implicit content flush on deletion. However, chain deletion results in -EBUSY if there is content in this chain, so no implicit flush happens. So you have to send a flush command in first place to delete chains, this is inconsistent and it can be annoying in terms of user experience. This patch uses the new NLM_F_NONREC flag to request non-recursive chain deletion, ie. if the chain to be removed contains rules, then this returns EBUSY. This problem was discussed during the NFWS'17 in Faro, Portugal. In iptables, you hit -EBUSY if you try to delete a chain that contains rules, so you have to flush first before you can remove anything. Since iptables-compat uses the nf_tables netlink interface, it has to use the NLM_F_NONREC flag from userspace to retain the original iptables semantics, ie. bail out on removing chains that contain rules.

Bail out if user requests non-recursive deletion for tables and sets. This new flags tells nf_tables netlink interface to reject deletions if tables and sets have content. Signed-off-by: Pablo Neira Ayuso <pablo@netfilter.org>

Pablo Neira Ayuso authored
In the last NFWS in Faro, Portugal, we discussed that netlink is lacking the semantics to request non recursive deletions, ie. do not delete an object iff it has child objects that hang from this parent object that the user requests to be deleted. We need this new flag to solve a problem for the iptables-compat backward compatibility utility, that runs iptables commands using the existing nf_tables netlink interface. Specifically, custom chains in iptables cannot be deleted if there are rules in it, however, nf_tables allows to remove any chain that is populated with content. To sort out this asymmetry, iptables-compat userspace sets this new NLM_F_NONREC flag to obtain the same semantics that iptables provides. This new flag should only be used for deletion requests. Note this new flag value overlaps with the existing: * NLM_F_ROOT for get requests. * NLM_F_REPLACE for new requests. However, those flags should not ever be used in deletion requests.

This patch adds a new feature to hashlimit that allows matching on the current packet/byte rate without rate limiting. This can be enabled with a new flag --hashlimit-rate-match. The match returns true if the current rate of packets is above/below the user specified value. The main difference between the existing algorithm and the new one is that the existing algorithm rate-limits the flow whereas the new algorithm does not. Instead it *classifies* the flow based on whether it is above or below a certain rate. I will demonstrate this with an example below. Let us assume this rule: iptables -A INPUT -m hashlimit --hashlimit-above 10/s -j new_chain If the packet rate is 15/s, the existing algorithm would ACCEPT 10 packets every second and send 5 packets to "new_chain". But with the new algorithm, as long as the rate of 15/s is sustained, all packets will continue to match and every packet is sent to new_chain. This new functionality will let us classify different flows based on their current rate, so that further decisions can be made on them based on what the current rate is. This is how the new algorithm works: We divide time into intervals of 1 (sec/min/hour) as specified by the user. We keep track of the number of packets/bytes processed in the current interval. After each interval we reset the counter to 0. When we receive a packet for match, we look at the packet rate during the current interval and the previous interval to make a decision: if [ prev_rate < user and cur_rate < user ] return Below else return Above Where cur_rate is the number of packets/bytes seen in the current interval, prev is the number of packets/bytes seen in the previous interval and 'user' is the rate specified by the user. We also provide flexibility to the user for choosing the time interval using the option --hashilmit-interval. For example the user can keep a low rate like x/hour but still keep the interval as small as 1 second. To preserve backwards compatibility we have to add this feature in a new revision, so I've created revision 3 for hashlimit. The two new options we add are: --hashlimit-rate-match --hashlimit-rate-interval I have updated the help text to add these new options. Also added a few tests for the new options.

Jakub Kicinski says: ==================== nfp: refactor app init, and minor flower fixes This series is a part 2 to what went into net as a simpler fix. In net we simply moved when existing callbacks are invoked to ensure flower app does not still use representors when lower netdev has already been destroyed. In this series we add a callback to notify apps when vNIC netdevs are fully initialized and they are about to be destroyed. This allows flower to spawn representors at the right time, while keeping the start/stop callbacks for what they are intended to be used - FW initialization over control channel. Patch 4 improves drop monitor interaction and patch 5 changes the default Kconfig selection of flower offload. Patch 6 fixes locking around representor updates which got lost in net-next. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

Jiri Pirko says: ==================== mlxsw: Offloading GRE tunnels Petr says: This patch series introduces to mlxsw driver support for offloading IP-in-IP tunnels in general, and for (subset of) GRE in particular. This patchset supports two ways of configuring GRE: - So called "hierarchical configuration", where the GRE device has a bound dummy device, which is in a different VRF. The VRF with host traffic is called "overlay", the one with encapsulated traffic is called "underlay". - So called "flat configuration", where the GRE device doesn't have a bound device, and overlay and underlay are both in the same VRF (possibly the default one). Two routes are then interesting: a route that directs traffic to a GRE device (which would typically be in overlay VRF, but could be in another one), and a local route for the tunnel's local address (in underlay). Handling of these two route types is then introduced as patches to support, respectively, IPv4 and IPv6 encapsulation and IPv4 decapsulation. The encap and decap routes then reference a loopback device, a new type of RIF introduced by this patchset for the specific use of offloading tunnels. The encap and decap code is abstract with respect to the particulars of individual L3 tunnel types. This patchset introduces support for GRE tunnels in particular. Limitations: - Each tunnel needs to have a different local address (within a given VRF). When two tunnels are used that are in conflict, FIB abort is triggered and the driver ceases offloading FIBs. Full handling of such configurations needs special setup in the hardware, such that the tunnels that share an address are dispatched correctly according to their key (or lack thereof). That's currently not implemented, and to keep things deterministic, the driver triggers FIB abort. - A next hop that uses an incompletely-specified tunnel (e.g. such that are used for LWT) is not offloaded, but doesn't trigger FIB abort like the above. If such routes end up being in a de facto conflict with other tunnels, then if there already is an offload for that address, the traffic for the conflicting tunnel will end up mismatching the configuration of the offloaded tunnel, and thus gets to slow path through an error trap. - GRE checksumming and sequence numbers are not supported and TTL and TOS need to be set to inherit. Tunnels with a different configuration are not offloaded and their traffic is trapping to slow path. Note in particular that TOS of inherit is not the default configuration and needs to be explicitly specified when the tunnel is created. - The only feature that is not graciously handled is that if a change is made to the tunnel, e.g. through "ip tunnel change", such changes are not reflected in the driver. There is currently no notification mechanism for these changes. Introduction of this mechanism and its leverage in the driver will be subject of follow-up work. For now this limitation can be worked around by removing and re-adding the encap route. --- v1->v2: -fix order of patch 5 ==================== Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
