====================
Netfilter updates for net-next

The following patchset contains Netfilter updates for net-next, they are:

1) A couple of cleanups for the netfilter core hook from Eric Biederman.

2) Net namespace hook registration, also from Eric. This adds a dependency with
   the rtnl_lock. This should be fine by now but we have to keep an eye on this
   because if we ever get the per-subsys nfnl_lock before rtnl we have may
   problems in the future. But we have room to remove this in the future by
   propagating the complexity to the clients, by registering hooks for the init
   netns functions.

3) Update nf_tables to use the new net namespace hook infrastructure, also from
   Eric.

4) Three patches to refine and to address problems from the new net namespace
   hook infrastructure.

5) Switch to alternate jumpstack in xtables iff the packet is reentering. This
   only applies to a very special case, the TEE target, but Eric Dumazet
   reports that this is slowing down things for everyone else. So let's only
   switch to the alternate jumpstack if the tee target is in used through a
   static key. This batch also comes with offline precalculation of the
   jumpstack based on the callchain depth. From Florian Westphal.

6) Minimal SCTP multihoming support for our conntrack helper, from Michal
   Kubecek.

7) Reduce nf_bridge_info per skbuff scratchpad area to 32 bytes, from Florian
   Westphal.

8) Fix several checkpatch errors in bridge netfilter, from Bernhard Thaler.

9) Get rid of useless debug message in ip6t_REJECT, from Subash Abhinov.

<title>netfilter: fix netns dependencies with conntrack templates</title>

Quoting Daniel Borkmann:

"When adding connection tracking template rules to a netns, f.e. to
configure netfilter zones, the kernel will endlessly busy-loop as soon
as we try to delete the given netns in case there's at least one
template present, which is problematic i.e. if there is such bravery that
the priviledged user inside the netns is assumed untrusted.

Minimal example:

  ip netns add foo
  ip netns exec foo iptables -t raw -A PREROUTING -d 1.2.3.4 -j CT --zone 1
  ip netns del foo

What happens is that when nf_ct_iterate_cleanup() is being called from
nf_conntrack_cleanup_net_list() for a provided netns, we always end up
with a net-&gt;ct.count &gt; 0 and thus jump back to i_see_dead_people. We
don't get a soft-lockup as we still have a schedule() point, but the
serving CPU spins on 100% from that point onwards.

Since templates are normally allocated with nf_conntrack_alloc(), we
also bump net-&gt;ct.count. The issue why they are not yet nf_ct_put() is
because the per netns .exit() handler from x_tables (which would eventually
invoke xt_CT's xt_ct_tg_destroy() that drops reference on info-&gt;ct) is
called in the dependency chain at a *later* point in time than the per
netns .exit() handler for the connection tracker.

This is clearly a chicken'n'egg problem: after the connection tracker
.exit() handler, we've teared down all the connection tracking
infrastructure already, so rightfully, xt_ct_tg_destroy() cannot be
invoked at a later point in time during the netns cleanup, as that would
lead to a use-after-free. At the same time, we cannot make x_tables depend
on the connection tracker module, so that the xt_ct_tg_destroy() would
be invoked earlier in the cleanup chain."

Daniel confirms this has to do with the order in which modules are loaded or
having compiled nf_conntrack as modules while x_tables built-in. So we have no
guarantees regarding the order in which netns callbacks are executed.

Fix this by allocating the templates through kmalloc() from the respective
SYNPROXY and CT targets, so they don't depend on the conntrack kmem cache.
Then, release then via nf_ct_tmpl_free() from destroy_conntrack(). This branch
is marked as unlikely since conntrack templates are rarely allocated and only
from the configuration plane path.

Note that templates are not kept in any list to avoid further dependencies with
nf_conntrack anymore, thus, the tmpl larval list is removed.

<title>netfilter: Per network namespace netfilter hooks.</title>

- Add a new set of functions for registering and unregistering per
  network namespace hooks.

- Modify the old global namespace hook functions to use the per
  network namespace hooks in their implementation, so their remains a
  single list that needs to be walked for any hook (this is important
  for keeping the hook priority working and for keeping the code
  walking the hooks simple).

- Only allow registering the per netdevice hooks in the network
  namespace where the network device lives.

- Dynamically allocate the structures in the per network namespace
  hook list in nf_register_net_hook, and unregister them in
  nf_unregister_net_hook.

  Dynamic allocate is required somewhere as the number of network
  namespaces are not fixed so we might as well allocate them in the
  registration function.

  The chain of registered hooks on any list is expected to be small so
  the cost of walking that list to find the entry we are unregistering
  should also be small.

  Performing the management of the dynamically allocated list entries
  in the registration and unregistration functions keeps the complexity
  from spreading.

Add support to allow non-local binds similar to how this was done for IPv4.
Non-local binds are very useful in emulating the Internet in a box, etc.

This add the ip_nonlocal_bind sysctl under ipv6.

Testing:

Set up nonlocal binding and receive routing on a host, e.g.:

ip -6 rule add from ::/0 iif eth0 lookup 200
ip -6 route add local 2001:0:0:1::/64 dev lo proto kernel scope host table 200
sysctl -w net.ipv6.ip_nonlocal_bind=1

Set up routing to 2001:0:0:1::/64 on peer to go to first host

ping6 -I 2001:0:0:1::1 peer-address -- to verify

This pulls the full hook netfilter definitions from all those that include
net_namespace.h.

Instead let's just include the bare minimum required in the new
linux/netfilter_defs.h file, and use it from the netfilter netns header files.

I also needed to include in.h and in6.h from linux/netfilter.h otherwise we hit
this compilation error:

We don't need to pull the full definitions in that file, a simple forward
declaration is enough.

Moreover, include linux/procfs.h from nf_synproxy_core, otherwise this hits a
compilation error due to missing declarations, ie.

net/netfilter/nf_synproxy_core.c: In function ‘synproxy_proc_init’:
net/netfilter/nf_synproxy_core.c:326:2: error: implicit declaration of function ‘proc_create’ [-Werror=implicit-function-declaration]

-&gt;auto_asconf_splist is per namespace and mangled by functions like
sctp_setsockopt_auto_asconf() which doesn't guarantee any serialization.

Also, the call to inet_sk_copy_descendant() was backuping
-&gt;auto_asconf_list through the copy but was not honoring
-&gt;do_auto_asconf, which could lead to list corruption if it was
different between both sockets.

This commit thus fixes the list handling by using -&gt;addr_wq_lock
spinlock to protect the list. A special handling is done upon socket
creation and destruction for that. Error handlig on sctp_init_sock()
will never return an error after having initialized asconf, so
sctp_destroy_sock() can be called without addrq_wq_lock. The lock now
will be take on sctp_close_sock(), before locking the socket, so we
don't do it in inverse order compared to sctp_addr_wq_timeout_handler().

Instead of taking the lock on sctp_sock_migrate() for copying and
restoring the list values, it's preferred to avoid rewritting it by
implementing sctp_copy_descendant().

Issue was found with a test application that kept flipping sysctl
default_auto_asconf on and off, but one could trigger it by issuing
simultaneous setsockopt() calls on multiple sockets or by
creating/destroying sockets fast enough. This is only triggerable
locally.

-&gt;auto_asconf_splist is per namespace and mangled by functions like
sctp_setsockopt_auto_asconf() which doesn't guarantee any serialization.

Also, the call to inet_sk_copy_descendant() was backuping
-&gt;auto_asconf_list through the copy but was not honoring
-&gt;do_auto_asconf, which could lead to list corruption if it was
different between both sockets.

This commit thus fixes the list handling by using -&gt;addr_wq_lock
spinlock to protect the list. A special handling is done upon socket
creation and destruction for that. Error handlig on sctp_init_sock()
will never return an error after having initialized asconf, so
sctp_destroy_sock() can be called without addrq_wq_lock. The lock now
will be take on sctp_close_sock(), before locking the socket, so we
don't do it in inverse order compared to sctp_addr_wq_timeout_handler().

====================
Netfilter updates for net-next

The following patchset contains Netfilter updates for net-next, they are:

1) default CONFIG_NETFILTER_INGRESS to y for easier compile-testing of all
   options.

2) Allow to bind a table to net_device. This introduces the internal
   NFT_AF_NEEDS_DEV flag to perform a mandatory check for this binding.
   This is required by the next patch.

3) Add the 'netdev' table family, this new table allows you to create ingress
   filter basechains. This provides access to the existing nf_tables features
   from ingress.

4) Kill unused argument from compat_find_calc_{match,target} in ip_tables
   and ip6_tables, from Florian Westphal.
