Eric W. Biederman a31f1adc09 netfilter: nf_conntrack: Add a struct net parameter to l4_pkt_to_tuple
As gre does not have the srckey in the packet gre_pkt_to_tuple
needs to perform a lookup in it's per network namespace tables.

Pass in the proper network namespace to all pkt_to_tuple
implementations to ensure gre (and any similar protocols) can get this
right.

Jesper Dangaard Brouer b3cad287d1 conntrack: RFC5961 challenge ACK confuse conntrack LAST-ACK transition
In compliance with RFC5961, the network stack send challenge ACK in
response to spurious SYN packets, since commit 0c228e833c ("tcp:
Restore RFC5961-compliant behavior for SYN packets").

This pose a problem for netfilter conntrack in state LAST_ACK, because
this challenge ACK is (falsely) seen as ACKing last FIN, causing a
false state transition (into TIME_WAIT).

The challenge ACK is hard to distinguish from real last ACK.  Thus,
solution introduce a flag that tracks the potential for seeing a
challenge ACK, in case a SYN packet is let through and current state
is LAST_ACK.

When conntrack transition LAST_ACK to TIME_WAIT happens, this flag is
used for determining if we are expecting a challenge ACK.

Steven Rostedt (Red Hat) 37246a5837 netfilter: Remove return values for print_conntrack callbacks
The seq_printf() and friends are having their return values removed.
The print_conntrack() returns the result of seq_printf(), which is
meaningless when seq_printf() returns void. Might as well remove the
return values of print_conntrack() as well.

Marcelo Leitner e37ad9fd63 netfilter: nf_conntrack: allow server to become a client in TW handling
When a port that was used to listen for inbound connections gets closed
and reused for outgoing connections (like rsh ends up doing for stderr
flow), current we may reject the SYN/ACK packet for the new connection
because tcp_conntracks states forbirds a port to become a client while
there is still a TIME_WAIT entry in there for it.

As TCP may expire the TIME_WAIT socket in 60s and conntrack's timeout
for it is 120s, there is a ~60s window that the application can end up
opening a port that conntrack will end up blocking.

This patch fixes this by simply allowing such state transition: if we
see a SYN, in TIME_WAIT state, on REPLY direction, move it to sSS. Note
that the rest of the code already handles this situation, more
specificly in tcp_packet(), first switch clause.

Patrick McHardy 48b1de4c11 netfilter: add SYNPROXY core/target
Add a SYNPROXY for netfilter. The code is split into two parts, the synproxy
core with common functions and an address family specific target.

The SYNPROXY receives the connection request from the client, responds with
a SYN/ACK containing a SYN cookie and announcing a zero window and checks
whether the final ACK from the client contains a valid cookie.

It then establishes a connection to the original destination and, if
successful, sends a window update to the client with the window size
announced by the server.

Support for timestamps, SACK, window scaling and MSS options can be
statically configured as target parameters if the features of the server
are known. If timestamps are used, the timestamp value sent back to
the client in the SYN/ACK will be different from the real timestamp of
the server. In order to now break PAWS, the timestamps are translated in
the direction server->client.

Patrick McHardy 41d73ec053 netfilter: nf_conntrack: make sequence number adjustments usuable without NAT
Split out sequence number adjustments from NAT and move them to the conntrack
core to make them usable for SYN proxying. The sequence number adjustment
information is moved to a seperate extend. The extend is added to new
conntracks when a NAT mapping is set up for a connection using a helper.

As a side effect, this saves 24 bytes per connection with NAT in the common
case that a connection does not have a helper assigned.

The following batch contains Netfilter/IPVS updates for your net-next tree.
More specifically, they are:

* Trivial typo fix in xt_addrtype, from Phil Oester.

* Remove net_ratelimit in the conntrack logging for consistency with other
  logging subsystem, from Patrick McHardy.

* Remove unneeded includes from the recently added xt_connlabel support, from
  Florian Westphal.

* Allow to update conntracks via nfqueue, don't need NFQA_CFG_F_CONNTRACK for
  this, from Florian Westphal.

* Remove tproxy core, now that we have socket early demux, from Florian
  Westphal.

* A couple of patches to refactor conntrack event reporting to save a good
  bunch of lines, from Florian Westphal.

* Fix missing locking in NAT sequence adjustment, it did not manifested in
  any known bug so far, from Patrick McHardy.

* Change sequence number adjustment variable to 32 bits, to delay the
  possible early overflow in long standing connections, also from Patrick.

* Comestic cleanups for IPVS, from Dragos Foianu.

* Fix possible null dereference in IPVS in the SH scheduler, from Daniel
  Borkmann.

* Allow to attach conntrack expectations via nfqueue. Before this patch, you
  had to use ctnetlink instead, thus, we save the conntrack lookup.

* Export xt_rpfilter and xt_HMARK header files, from Nicolas Dichtel.

Yuchung Cheng 356d7d88e0 netfilter: nf_conntrack: fix tcp_in_window for Fast Open
Currently the conntrack checks if the ending sequence of a packet
falls within the observed receive window. However it does so even
if it has not observe any packet from the remote yet and uses an
uninitialized receive window (td_maxwin).

If a connection uses Fast Open to send a SYN-data packet which is
dropped afterward in the network. The subsequent SYNs retransmits
will all fail this check and be discarded, leading to a connection
timeout. This is because the SYN retransmit does not contain data
payload so

end == initial sequence number (isn) + 1
sender->td_end == isn + syn_data_len
receiver->td_maxwin == 0

The fix is to only apply this check after td_maxwin is initialized.

Florian Westphal 6547a22187 netfilter: nf_conntrack: avoid large timeout for mid-stream pickup
When loose tracking is enabled (default), non-syn packets cause
creation of new conntracks in established state with default timeout for
established state (5 days).  This causes the table to fill up with UNREPLIED
when the 'new ack' packet happened to be the last-ack of a previous,
already timed-out connection.

Consider:

A 192.168.x.52792 > 10.184.y.80: F, 426:426(0) ack 9237 win 255
B 10.184.y.80 > 192.168.x.52792: ., ack 427 win 123
<61 second pause>
C 10.184.y.80 > 192.168.x.52792: F, 9237:9237(0) ack 427 win 123
D 192.168.x.52792 > 10.184.y.80: ., ack 9238 win 255

B moves conntrack to CLOSE_WAIT and will kill it after 60 second timeout,
C is ignored (FIN set), but last packet (D) causes new ct with 5-days timeout.

Use UNACK timeout (5 minutes) instead to get rid of these entries sooner
when in ESTABLISHED state without having seen traffic in both directions.

Gao feng 30e0c6a6be netfilter: nf_log: prepare net namespace support for loggers
This patch adds netns support to nf_log and it prepares netns
support for existing loggers. It is composed of four major
changes.

1) nf_log_register has been split to two functions: nf_log_register
   and nf_log_set. The new nf_log_register is used to globally
   register the nf_logger and nf_log_set is used for enabling
   pernet support from nf_loggers.

   Per netns is not yet complete after this patch, it comes in
   separate follow up patches.

2) Add net as a parameter of nf_log_bind_pf. Per netns is not
   yet complete after this patch, it only allows to bind the
   nf_logger to the protocol family from init_net and it skips
   other cases.

3) Adapt all nf_log_packet callers to pass netns as parameter.
   After this patch, this function only works for init_net.

4) Make the sysctl net/netfilter/nf_log pernet.

the SYN packet hits b1, thus we save data from it. But the SYN/ACK
packet is considered a retransmission given that we're in SYN_RECV
state. Therefore, we never hit b2 and we don't get in sync. To fix
this, we ignore SYN/ACK if we are in SYN_RECV. If the previous packet
was a SYN, then we enter the ignore case that get us in sync.

This patch helps a lot to conntrackd in stress scenarios (assumming a
client that generates lots of small TCP connections). During the failover,
consider that the new primary has injected one outdated flow in SYN_RECV
state (this is likely to happen if the conntrack event rate is high
because the backup will be a bit delayed from the primary). With the
current code, if the client starts a new fresh connection that matches
the tuple, the SYN packet will be ignored without updating the state
tracking, and the SYN+ACK in reply will blocked as it will not pass
checkings III or IV (since all state tracking in the original direction
is not initialized because of the SYN packet was ignored and the ignore
case that get us in sync is not applied).

I posted a couple of patches before this one. Changli Gao spotted
a simpler way to fix this problem. This patch implements his idea.

Pablo Neira Ayuso fac42a9a92 netfilter: nf_ct_tcp: fix flow recovery with TCP window tracking enabled
This patch adds the missing bits to support the recovery of TCP flows
without disabling window tracking (aka be_liberal). To ensure a
successful recovery, we have to inject the window scale factor via
ctnetlink.

This patch has been tested with a development snapshot of conntrackd
and the new clause `TCPWindowTracking' that allows to perform strict
TCP window tracking recovery across fail-overs.

With this patch, we don't update the receiver's window until it's not
initiated. We require this to perform a successful recovery. Jozsef
confirmed in a private email that this spotted a real issue since that
should not happen.

Patrick McHardy 858b313300 netfilter: nf_conntrack: split up IPCT_STATUS event
Split up the IPCT_STATUS event into an IPCT_REPLY event, which is generated
when the IPS_SEEN_REPLY bit is set, and an IPCT_ASSURED event, which is
generated when the IPS_ASSURED bit is set.

In combination with a following patch to support selective event delivery,
this can be used for "sparse" conntrack replication: start replicating the
conntrack entry after it reached the ASSURED state and that way it's SYN-flood
resistant.

Pablo Neira Ayuso c4832c7bbc netfilter: nf_ct_tcp: improve out-of-sync situation in TCP tracking
Without this patch, if we receive a SYN packet from the client while
the firewall is out-of-sync, we let it go through. Then, if we see
the SYN/ACK reply coming from the server, we destroy the conntrack
entry and drop the packet to trigger a new retransmission. Then,
the retransmision from the client is used to start a new clean
session.

This patch improves the current handling. Basically, if we see an
unexpected SYN packet, we annotate the TCP options. Then, if we
see the reply SYN/ACK, this means that the firewall was indeed
out-of-sync. Therefore, we set a clean new session from the existing
entry based on the annotated values.

This patch adds two new 8-bits fields that fit in a 16-bits gap of
the ip_ct_tcp structure.

This patch is particularly useful for conntrackd since the
asynchronous nature of the state-synchronization allows to have
backup nodes that are not perfect copies of the master. This helps
to improve the recovery under some worst-case scenarios.

I have tested this by creating lots of conntrack entries in wrong
state:

for ((i=1024;i<65535;i++)); do conntrack -I -p tcp -s 192.168.2.101 -d 192.168.2.2 --sport $i --dport 80 -t 800 --state ESTABLISHED -u ASSURED,SEEN_REPLY; done

Then, I make some TCP connections:

$ echo GET / | nc 192.168.2.2 80

The events show the result:

 [UPDATE] tcp      6 60 SYN_RECV src=192.168.2.101 dst=192.168.2.2 sport=33220 dport=80 src=192.168.2.2 dst=192.168.2.101 sport=80 dport=33220 [ASSURED]

Jozsef Kadlecsik f9dd09c7f7 netfilter: nf_nat: fix NAT issue in 2.6.30.4+
Vitezslav Samel discovered that since 2.6.30.4+ active FTP can not work
over NAT. The "cause" of the problem was a fix of unacknowledged data
detection with NAT (commit a3a9f79e36).
However, actually, that fix uncovered a long standing bug in TCP conntrack:
when NAT was enabled, we simply updated the max of the right edge of
the segments we have seen (td_end), by the offset NAT produced with
changing IP/port in the data. However, we did not update the other parameter
(td_maxend) which is affected by the NAT offset. Thus that could drift
away from the correct value and thus resulted breaking active FTP.

The patch below fixes the issue by *not* updating the conntrack parameters
from NAT, but instead taking into account the NAT offsets in conntrack in a
consistent way. (Updating from NAT would be more harder and expensive because
it'd need to re-calculate parameters we already calculated in conntrack.)
