netfilter: xt_HMARK: fix endianness and provide consistent hashing

2012-06-07T12:53:01+00:00

This patch addresses two issues: a) Fix usage of u32 and __be32 that causes endianess warnings via sparse. b) Ensure consistent hashing in a cluster that is composed of big and little endian systems. Thus, we obtain the same hash mark in an heterogeneous cluster. Reported-by: Dan Carpenter Signed-off-by: Hans Schillstrom Signed-off-by: Pablo Neira Ayuso

netfilter: ipset: fix timeout value overflow bug

2012-05-16T22:56:41+00:00

Large timeout parameters could result wrong timeout values due to an overflow at msec to jiffies conversion (reported by Andreas Herz) [ This patch was mangled by Pablo Neira Ayuso since David Laight and Eric Dumazet noticed that we were using hardcoded 1000 instead of MSEC_PER_SEC to calculate the timeout ] Signed-off-by: Jozsef Kadlecsik Signed-off-by: Pablo Neira Ayuso

netfilter: xt_hashlimit: use _ALL macro to reject unknown flag bits

2012-05-16T22:56:31+00:00

David Miller says: The canonical way to validate if the set bits are in a valid range is to have a "_ALL" macro, and test: if (val & ~XT_HASHLIMIT_ALL) goto err;" make it so. Signed-off-by: Florian Westphal Signed-off-by: Pablo Neira Ayuso

netfilter: ipset: fix hash size checking in kernel

2012-05-16T19:38:49+00:00

The hash size must fit both into u32 (jhash) and the max value of size_t. The missing checking could lead to kernel crash, bug reported by Seblu. Signed-off-by: Jozsef Kadlecsik Signed-off-by: Pablo Neira Ayuso Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

netfilter: hashlimit: byte-based limit mode

2012-05-09T11:04:57+00:00

can be used e.g. for ingress traffic policing or to detect when a host/port consumes more bandwidth than expected. This is done by optionally making cost to mean "cost per 16-byte-chunk-of-data" instead of "cost per packet". Signed-off-by: Florian Westphal Signed-off-by: Pablo Neira Ayuso

netfilter: add xt_hmark target for hash-based skb marking

2012-05-09T10:54:05+00:00

The target allows you to create rules in the "raw" and "mangle" tables which set the skbuff mark by means of hash calculation within a given range. The nfmark can influence the routing method (see "Use netfilter MARK value as routing key") and can also be used by other subsystems to change their behaviour.

netfilter: nf_conntrack: fix explicit helper attachment and NAT

2012-05-08T17:44:42+00:00

Explicit helper attachment via the CT target is broken with NAT if non-standard ports are used. This problem was hidden behind the automatic helper assignment routine. Thus, it becomes more noticeable now that we can disable the automatic helper assignment with Eric Leblond's: 9e8ac5a netfilter: nf_ct_helper: allow to disable automatic helper assignment Basically, nf_conntrack_alter_reply asks for looking up the helper up if NAT is enabled. Unfortunately, we don't have the conntrack template at that point anymore. Since we don't want to rely on the automatic helper assignment, we can skip the second look-up and stick to the helper that was attached by iptables. With the CT target, the user is in full control of helper attachment, thus, the policy is to trust what the user explicitly configures via iptables (no automatic magic anymore). Interestingly, this bug was hidden by the automatic helper look-up code. But it can be easily trigger if you attach the helper in a non-standard port, eg. iptables -I PREROUTING -t raw -p tcp --dport 8888 \ -j CT --helper ftp And you disabled the automatic helper assignment. I added the IPS_HELPER_BIT that allows us to differenciate between a helper that has been explicitly attached and those that have been automatically assigned. I didn't come up with a better solution (having backward compatibility in mind). Signed-off-by: Pablo Neira Ayuso

net: cleanup unsigned to unsigned int

Use of "unsigned int" is preferred to bare "unsigned" in net tree. Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet Signed-off-by: David S. Miller
