2014-11-21netfilter: nft_compat: fix wrong target lookup in nft_target_select_ops()Arturo Borrero
commit 7965ee93719921ea5978f331da653dfa2d7b99f5 upstream. The code looks for an already loaded target, and the correct list to search is nft_target_list, not nft_match_list.

2013-11-18netfilter: nft_compat: fix error path in nft_parse_compat()Pablo Neira Ayuso
The patch 0ca743a55991: "netfilter: nf_tables: add compatibility layer for x_tables", leads to the following Smatch warning: "net/netfilter/nft_compat.c:140 nft_parse_compat() warn: signedness bug returning '(-34)'" This nft_parse_compat function returns error codes but the return type is u8 so the error codes are transformed into small positive values. The callers don't check the return. Reported-by: Dan Carpenter <dan.carpenter@oracle.com> Signed-off-by: Pablo Neira Ayuso <pablo@netfilter.org>
2013-11-04netfilter: nft_compat: use _safe version of list_for_eachDan Carpenter
We need to use the _safe version of list_for_each_entry() here otherwise we have a use after free bug. Signed-off-by: Dan Carpenter <dan.carpenter@oracle.com> Signed-off-by: Pablo Neira Ayuso <pablo@netfilter.org>
2013-10-14netfilter: nf_tables: add compatibility layer for x_tablesPablo Neira Ayuso
This patch adds the x_tables compatibility layer. This allows you to use existing x_tables matches and targets from nf_tables. This compatibility later allows us to use existing matches/targets for features that are still missing in nf_tables. We can progressively replace them with native nf_tables extensions. It also provides the userspace compatibility software that allows you to express the rule-set using the iptables syntax but using the nf_tables kernel components. In order to get this compatibility layer working, I've done the following things: * add NFNL_SUBSYS_NFT_COMPAT: this new nfnetlink subsystem is used to query the x_tables match/target revision, so we don't need to use the native x_table getsockopt interface. * emulate xt structures: this required extending the struct nft_pktinfo to include the fragment offset, which is already obtained from ip[6]_tables and that is used by some matches/targets. * add support for default policy to base chains, required to emulate x_tables. * add NFTA_CHAIN_USE attribute to obtain the number of references to chains, required by x_tables emulation. * add chain packet/byte counters using per-cpu. * support 32-64 bits compat. For historical reasons, this patch includes the following patches that were posted in the netfilter-devel mailing list. From Pablo Neira Ayuso: * nf_tables: add default policy to base chains * netfilter: nf_tables: add NFTA_CHAIN_USE attribute * nf_tables: nft_compat: private data of target and matches in contiguous area * nf_tables: validate hooks for compat match/target * nf_tables: nft_compat: release cached matches/targets * nf_tables: x_tables support as a compile time option * nf_tables: fix alias for xtables over nftables module * nf_tables: add packet and byte counters per chain * nf_tables: fix per-chain counter stats if no counters are passed * nf_tables: don't bump chain stats * nf_tables: add protocol and flags for xtables over nf_tables * nf_tables: add ip[6]t_entry emulation * nf_tables: move specific layer 3 compat code to nf_tables_ipv[4|6] * nf_tables: support 32bits-64bits x_tables compat * nf_tables: fix compilation if CONFIG_COMPAT is disabled From Patrick McHardy: * nf_tables: move policy to struct nft_base_chain * nf_tables: send notifications for base chain policy changes From Alexander Primak: * nf_tables: remove the duplicate NF_INET_LOCAL_OUT From Nicolas Dichtel: * nf_tables: fix compilation when nf-netlink is a module Signed-off-by: Pablo Neira Ayuso <pablo@netfilter.org>
