Patrick McHardy a3c8e7fd4b [NETFILTER]: nfnetlink_queue: fix checks in nfqnl_recv_config
The peer_pid must be checked in all cases when a queue exists, currently
it is not checked if for NFQA_CFG_QUEUE_MAXLEN when a NFQA_CFG_CMD
attribute exists in some cases. Same for the queue existance check,
which can cause a NULL pointer dereference.

Also consistently return -ENODEV for "queue not found". -ENOENT would
be better, but that is already used to indicate a queued skb id doesn't
exist.

Patrick McHardy 02f014d888 [NETFILTER]: nf_queue: move list_head/skb/id to struct nf_info
Move common fields for queue management to struct nf_info and rename it
to struct nf_queue_entry. The avoids one allocation/free per packet and
simplifies the code a bit.

Alternatively we could add some private room at the tail, but since
all current users use identical structs this seems easier.

A queue entry lookup currently looks like this:

find_dequeue_entry -> __find_dequeue_entry ->

Use simple open-coded list walking and kill the cmpfn for

similar cleanups) and use nfqnl_flush for both complete
flushes and flushing entries related to a device.

Eric W. Biederman b4b510290b [NET]: Support multiple network namespaces with netlink
Each netlink socket will live in exactly one network namespace,
this includes the controlling kernel sockets.

This patch updates all of the existing netlink protocols
to only support the initial network namespace.  Request
by clients in other namespaces will get -ECONREFUSED.
As they would if the kernel did not have the support for
that netlink protocol compiled in.

As each netlink protocol is updated to be multiple network
namespace safe it can register multiple kernel sockets
to acquire a presence in the rest of the network namespaces.

The implementation in af_netlink is a simple filter implementation
at hash table insertion and hash table look up time.

Eric W. Biederman e9dc865340 [NET]: Make device event notification network namespace safe
Every user of the network device notifiers is either a protocol
stack or a pseudo device.  If a protocol stack that does not have
support for multiple network namespaces receives an event for a
device that is not in the initial network namespace it quite possibly
can get confused and do the wrong thing.

To avoid problems until all of the protocol stacks are converted
this patch modifies all netdev event handlers to ignore events on
devices that are not in the initial network namespace.

As the rest of the code is made network namespace aware these
checks can be removed.

Thomas Graf 1d00a4eb42 [NETLINK]: Remove error pointer from netlink message handler
The error pointer argument in netlink message handlers is used
to signal the special case where processing has to be interrupted
because a dump was started but no error happened. Instead it is
simpler and more clear to return -EINTR and have netlink_run_queue()
deal with getting the queue right.

nfnetlink passed on this error pointer to its subsystem handlers
but only uses it to signal the start of a netlink dump. Therefore
it can be removed there as well.

This patch also cleans up the error handling in the affected
message handlers to be consistent since it had to be touched anyway.

Arnaldo Carvalho de Melo 27a884dc3c [SK_BUFF]: Convert skb->tail to sk_buff_data_t
So that it is also an offset from skb->head, reduces its size from 8 to 4 bytes
on 64bit architectures, allowing us to combine the 4 bytes hole left by the
layer headers conversion, reducing struct sk_buff size to 256 bytes, i.e. 4
64byte cachelines, and since the sk_buff slab cache is SLAB_HWCACHE_ALIGN...
:-)

Many calculations that previously required that skb->{transport,network,
mac}_header be first converted to a pointer now can be done directly, being
meaningful as offsets or pointers.

Eric Dumazet b7aa0bf70c [NET]: convert network timestamps to ktime_t
We currently use a special structure (struct skb_timeval) and plain
'struct timeval' to store packet timestamps in sk_buffs and struct
sock.

This has some drawbacks :
- Fixed resolution of micro second.
- Waste of space on 64bit platforms where sizeof(struct timeval)=16

I suggest using ktime_t that is a nice abstraction of high resolution
time services, currently capable of nanosecond resolution.

As sizeof(ktime_t) is 8 bytes, using ktime_t in 'struct sock' permits
a 8 byte shrink of this structure on 64bit architectures. Some other
structures also benefit from this size reduction (struct ipq in
ipv4/ip_fragment.c, struct frag_queue in ipv6/reassembly.c, ...)

Once this ktime infrastructure adopted, we can more easily provide
nanosecond resolution on top of it. (ioctl SIOCGSTAMPNS and/or
SO_TIMESTAMPNS/SCM_TIMESTAMPNS)

Note : this patch includes a bug correction in
compat_sock_get_timestamp() where a "err = 0;" was missing (so this
syscall returned -ENOENT instead of 0)

Patrick McHardy d8a585d78e [NETFILTER]: Use pskb_trim in {ip,ip6,nfnetlink}_queue
Based on patch by James D. Nurmi:

I've got some code very dependant on nfnetlink_queue, and turned up a
large number of warns coming from skb_trim.  While it's quite possibly
my code, having not seen it on older kernels made me a bit suspect.

Anyhow, based on some googling I turned up this thread:
http://lkml.org/lkml/2006/8/13/56

And believe the issue to be related, so attached is a small patch to
the kernel -- not sure if this is completely correct, but for anyone
else hitting the WARN_ON(1) in skbuff.h, it might be helpful..

Herbert Xu 325ed82393 [NET]: Fix packet timestamping.
I've found the problem in general.  It affects any 64-bit
architecture.  The problem occurs when you change the system time.

Suppose that when you boot your system clock is forward by a day.
This gets recorded down in skb_tv_base.  You then wind the clock back
by a day.  From that point onwards the offset will be negative which
essentially overflows the 32-bit variables they're stored in.

In fact, why don't we just store the real time stamp in those 32-bit
variables? After all, we're not going to overflow for quite a while
yet.

When we do overflow, we'll need a better solution of course.
