2005-12-05[NETFILTER]: Mark ctnetlink as EXPERIMENTALPatrick McHardy
Should have been marked EXPERIMENTAL from the beginning, as the current bunch of fixes show. Signed-off-by: Patrick McHardy <kaber@trash.net> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2005-11-20[NETFILTER]: fixed dependencies between modules related with ip_conntrackYasuyuki Kozakai
- IP_NF_CONNTRACK_MARK is bool and depends on only IP_NF_CONNTRACK which is tristate. If a variable depends on IP_NF_CONNTRACK_MARK and doesn't care about IP_NF_CONNTRACK, it can be y. This must be avoided. - IP_NF_CT_ACCT has same problem. - IP_NF_TARGET_CLUSTERIP also depends on IP_NF_MANGLE.

2005-11-09[NETFILTER]: Add nf_conntrack subsystem.Yasuyuki Kozakai
The existing connection tracking subsystem in netfilter can only handle ipv4. There were basically two choices present to add connection tracking support for ipv6. We could either duplicate all of the ipv4 connection tracking code into an ipv6 counterpart, or (the choice taken by these patches) we could design a generic layer that could handle both ipv4 and ipv6 and thus requiring only one sub-protocol (TCP, UDP, etc.) connection tracking helper module to be written. In fact nf_conntrack is capable of working with any layer 3 protocol. The existing ipv4 specific conntrack code could also not deal with the pecularities of doing connection tracking on ipv6, which is also cured here. For example, these issues include: 1) ICMPv6 handling, which is used for neighbour discovery in ipv6 thus some messages such as these should not participate in connection tracking since effectively they are like ARP messages 2) fragmentation must be handled differently in ipv6, because the simplistic "defrag, connection track and NAT, refrag" (which the existing ipv4 connection tracking does) approach simply isn't feasible in ipv6 3) ipv6 extension header parsing must occur at the correct spots before and after connection tracking decisions, and there were no provisions for this in the existing connection tracking design 4) ipv6 has no need for stateful NAT The ipv4 specific conntrack layer is kept around, until all of the ipv4 specific conntrack helpers are ported over to nf_conntrack and it is feature complete. Once that occurs, the old conntrack stuff will get placed into the feature-removal-schedule and we will fully kill it off 6 months later.

2005-10-10[NETFILTER] ipt_ULOG: Mark ipt_ULOG as OBSOLETEHarald Welte
Similar to nfnetlink_queue and ip_queue, we mark ipt_ULOG as obsolete. This should have been part of the original nfnetlink_log merge, but I somehow missed it. Signed-off-by: Harald Welte <laforge@netfilter.org> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2005-10-10[NETFILTER] PPTP helper: Add missing Kconfig dependencyHarald Welte
PPTP should not be selectable without conntrack enabled Signed-off-by: Harald Welte <laforge@netfilter.org> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

2005-09-24[NETFILTER]: Fix ip[6]t_NFQUEUE Kconfig dependencyHarald Welte
We have to introduce a separate Kconfig menu entry for the NFQUEUE targets. They cannot "just" depend on nfnetlink_queue, since nfnetlink_queue could be linked into the kernel, whereas iptables can be a module.

2005-09-19[NETFILTER]: Add new PPTP conntrack and NAT helperHarald Welte
This new "version 3" PPTP conntrack/nat helper is finally ready for mainline inclusion. Special thanks to lots of last-minute bugfixing by Patric McHardy. Signed-off-by: Harald Welte <laforge@netfilter.org> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

2005-09-06[NETFILTER]: Fix CONNMARK Kconfig dependencyYasuyuki Kozakai
Connection mark tracking support is one of the feature in connection tracking, so IP_NF_CONNTRACK_MARK depends on IP_NF_CONNTRACK. Signed-off-by: Yasuyuki Kozakai <yasuyuki.kozakai@toshiba.co.jp> Signed-off-by: Patrick McHardy <kaber@trash.net> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

2005-08-29[NETFILTER]: Add new iptables "connbytes" matchHarald Welte
This patch ads a new "connbytes" match that utilizes the CONFIG_NF_CT_ACCT per-connection byte and packet counters. Using it you can do things like packet classification on average packet size within a connection. Signed-off-by: Harald Welte <laforge@netfilter.org> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2005-08-29[NETFILTER]: New iptables DCCP protocol header matchHarald Welte
Using this new iptables DCCP protocol header match, it is possible to create simplistic stateless packet filtering rules for DCCP. It permits matching of port numbers, packet type and options.

2005-08-29[NETFILTER]: Add "nfnetlink_queue" netfilter queue handler over nfnetlinkHarald Welte
- Add new nfnetlink_queue module - Add new ipt_NFQUEUE and ip6t_NFQUEUE modules to access queue numbers 1-65535 - Mark ip_queue and ip6_queue Kconfig options as OBSOLETE - Update feature-removal-schedule to remove ip[6]_queue in December Signed-off-by: Harald Welte <laforge@netfilter.org> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2005-08-29[NETFILTER]: Add ctnetlink subsystemHarald Welte
Add ctnetlink subsystem for userspace-access to ip_conntrack table. This allows reading and updating of existing entries, as well as creating new ones (and new expect's) via nfnetlink. Please note the 'strange' byte order: nfattr (tag+length) are in host byte order, while the payload is always guaranteed to be in network byte order. This allows a simple userspace process to encapsulate netlink messages into arch-independent udp packets by just processing/swapping the headers and not knowing anything about the actual payload.

2005-08-29[NETFILTER]: connection tracking event notifiersHarald Welte
This adds a notifier chain based event mechanism for ip_conntrack state changes. As opposed to the previous implementations in patch-o-matic, we do no longer need a field in the skb to achieve this. Thanks to the valuable input from Patrick McHardy and Rusty on the idea of a per_cpu implementation. Signed-off-by: Harald Welte <laforge@netfilter.org> Signed-off-by: David S.

2005-04-16Linux-2.6.12-rc2v2.6.12-rc2Linus Torvalds
Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history, even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about 3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good infrastructure for it. Let it rip!
