git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/pablo/nftables Pablo Neira Ayuso says: <pablo@netfilter.org> ==================== nftables updates for net-next The following patchset contains nftables updates for your net-next tree, they are: * Add set operation to the meta expression by means of the select_ops() infrastructure, this allows us to set the packet mark among other things. From Arturo Borrero Gonzalez. * Fix wrong format in sscanf in nf_tables_set_alloc_name(), from Daniel Borkmann. * Add new queue expression to nf_tables. These comes with two previous patches to prepare this new feature, one to add mask in nf_tables_core to evaluate the queue verdict appropriately and another to refactor common code with xt_NFQUEUE, from Eric Leblond. * Do not hide nftables from Kconfig if nfnetlink is not enabled, also from Eric Leblond. * Add the reject expression to nf_tables, this adds the missing TCP RST support. It comes with an initial patch to refactor common code with xt_NFQUEUE, again from Eric Leblond. * Remove an unused variable assignment in nf_tables_dump_set(), from Michal Nazarewicz. * Remove the nft_meta_target code, now that Arturo added the set operation to the meta expression, from me. * Add help information for nf_tables to Kconfig, also from me. * Allow to dump all sets by specifying NFPROTO_UNSPEC, similar feature is available to other nf_tables objects, requested by Arturo, from me. * Expose the table usage counter, so we can know how many chains are using this table without dumping the list of chains, from Tomasz Bursztyka. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S.

2014-01-03netfilter: nf_conntrack: remove dead codestephen hemminger
The following code is not used in current upstream code. Some of this seems to be old hooks, other might be used by some out of tree module (which I don't care about breaking), and the need_ipv4_conntrack was used by old NAT code but no longer called.

This patch prepares the addition of TCP reset support in the nft_reject module by moving reusable code into a header file. Signed-off-by: Eric Leblond <eric@regit.org> Signed-off-by: Pablo Neira Ayuso <pablo@netfilter.org>
2013-09-23netfilter: Remove extern from function prototypesJoe Perches
There are a mix of function prototypes with and without extern in the kernel sources. Standardize on not using extern for function prototypes. Function prototypes don't need to be written with extern. extern is assumed by the compiler. Its use is as unnecessary as using auto to declare automatic/local variables in a block.

2009-06-08netfilter: nf_ct_icmp: keep the ICMP ct entries longerJan Kasprzak
Current conntrack code kills the ICMP conntrack entry as soon as the first reply is received. This is incorrect, as we then see only the first ICMP echo reply out of several possible duplicates as ESTABLISHED, while the rest will be INVALID. Also this unnecessarily increases the conntrackd traffic on H-A firewalls. Make all the ICMP conntrack entries (including the replied ones) last for the default of nf_conntrack_icmp{,v6}_timeout seconds.

2008-10-08netfilter: split netfilter IPv4 defragmentation into a separate moduleKOVACS Krisztian
Netfilter connection tracking requires all IPv4 packets to be defragmented. Both the socket match and the TPROXY target depend on this functionality, so this patch separates the Netfilter IPv4 defrag hooks into a separate module.

2006-12-02[NETFILTER]: nf_conntrack: /proc compatibility with old connection trackingPatrick McHardy
This patch adds /proc/net/ip_conntrack, /proc/net/ip_conntrack_expect and /proc/net/stat/ip_conntrack files to keep old programs using them working. The /proc/net/ip_conntrack and /proc/net/ip_conntrack_expect files show only IPv4 entries, the /proc/net/stat/ip_conntrack shows global statistics. Signed-off-by: Patrick McHardy <kaber@trash.net>

2006-01-12[NETFILTER] x_tables: Abstraction layer for {ip,ip6,arp}_tablesHarald Welte
This monster-patch tries to do the best job for unifying the data structures and backend interfaces for the three evil clones ip_tables, ip6_tables and arp_tables. In an ideal world we would never have allowed this kind of copy+paste programming... but well, our world isn't (yet?) ideal. o introduce a new x_tables module o {ip,arp,ip6}_tables depend on this x_tables module o registration functions for tables, matches and targets are only wrappers around x_tables provided functions o all matches/targets that are used from ip_tables and ip6_tables are now implemented as xt_FOOBAR.c files and provide module aliases to ipt_FOOBAR and ip6t_FOOBAR o header files for xt_matches are in include/linux/netfilter/, include/linux/netfilter_{ipv4,ipv6} contains compatibility wrappers around the xt_FOOBAR.h headers Based on this patchset we're going to further unify the code, gradually getting rid of all the layer 3 specific assumptions.

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.
