netfilter: ipset: List timing out entries with "timeout 1" instead of zero

2018-08-03T05:55:13+00:00

[ Upstream commit bd975e691486ba52790ba23cc9b4fecab7bc0d31 ] When listing sets with timeout support, there's a probability that just timing out entries with "0" timeout value is listed/saved. However when restoring the saved list, the zero timeout value means permanent elelements. The new behaviour is that timing out entries are listed with "timeout 1" instead of zero.

netfilter: x_tables: add and use xt_check_proc_name

2018-04-08T10:12:50+00:00

commit b1d0a5d0cba4597c0394997b2d5fced3e3841b4e upstream. recent and hashlimit both create /proc files, but only check that name is 0 terminated. This can trigger WARN() from procfs when name is "" or "/". Add helper for this and then use it for both.

netfilter: x_tables: pack percpu counter allocations

2018-03-18T10:18:54+00:00

commit ae0ac0ed6fcf5af3be0f63eb935f483f44a402d2 upstream. instead of allocating each xt_counter individually, allocate 4k chunks and then use these for counter allocation requests. This should speed up rule evaluation by increasing data locality, also speeds up ruleset loading because we reduce calls to the percpu allocator. As Eric points out we can't use PAGE_SIZE, page_allocator would fail on arches with 64k page size.

netfilter: x_tables: pass xt_counters struct to counter allocator

netfilter: x_tables: pass xt_counters struct instead of packet counter

2018-03-18T10:18:54+00:00

commit 4d31eef5176df06f218201bc9c0ce40babb41660 upstream. On SMP we overload the packet counter (unsigned long) to contain percpu offset. Hide this from callers and pass xt_counters address instead. Preparation patch to allocate the percpu counters in page-sized batch chunks.

netfilter: conntrack: remove packet hotpath stats

2016-09-12T17:59:39+00:00

These counters sit in hot path and do show up in perf, this is especially true for 'found' and 'searched' which get incremented for every packet processed. Information like searched=212030105 new=623431 found=333613 delete=623327 does not seem too helpful nowadays: - on busy systems found and searched will overflow every few hours (these are 32bit integers), other more busy ones every few days. - for debugging there are better methods, such as iptables' trace target, the conntrack log sysctls. Nowadays we also have perf tool. This removes packet path stat counters except those that are expected to be 0 (or close to 0) on a normal system, e.g. 'insert_failed' (race happened) or 'invalid' (proto tracker rejects). The insert stat is retained for the ctnetlink case. The found stat is retained for the tuple-is-taken check when NAT has to determine if it needs to pick a different source address.

netfilter: gre: Use consistent GRE and PTTP header structure instead of the ones defined by netfilter

2016-09-07T08:36:52+00:00

There are two existing strutures which defines the GRE and PPTP header. So use these two structures instead of the ones defined by netfilter to keep consitent with other codes. Signed-off-by: Gao Feng Signed-off-by: Pablo Neira Ayuso

netfilter: gre: Use consistent GRE_* macros instead of ones defined by netfilter.

2016-09-07T08:36:48+00:00

There are already some GRE_* macros in kernel, so it is unnecessary to define these macros. And remove some useless macros Signed-off-by: Gao Feng Signed-off-by: Pablo Neira Ayuso

netfilter: x_tables: speed up jump target validation

2016-07-18T19:35:23+00:00

The dummy ruleset I used to test the original validation change was broken, most rules were unreachable and were not tested by mark_source_chains(). In some cases rulesets that used to load in a few seconds now require several minutes. sample ruleset that shows the behaviour: echo "*filter" for i in $(seq 0 100000);do printf ":chain_%06x - [0:0]\n" $i done for i in $(seq 0 100000);do printf -- "-A INPUT -j chain_%06x\n" $i printf -- "-A INPUT -j chain_%06x\n" $i printf -- "-A INPUT -j chain_%06x\n" $i done echo COMMIT [ pipe result into iptables-restore ] This ruleset will be about 74mbyte in size, with ~500k searches though all 500k[1] rule entries. iptables-restore will take forever (gave up after 10 minutes) Instead of always searching the entire blob for a match, fill an array with the start offsets of every single ipt_entry struct, then do a binary search to check if the jump target is present or not. After this change ruleset restore times get again close to what one gets when reverting 36472341017529e (~3 seconds on my workstation). [1] every user-defined rule gets an implicit RETURN, so we get 300k jumps + 100k userchains + 100k returns -> 500k rule entries Fixes: 36472341017529e ("netfilter: x_tables: validate targets of jumps") Reported-by: Jeff Wu Tested-by: Jeff Wu Signed-off-by: Florian Westphal Signed-off-by: Pablo Neira Ayuso
