In 34666d4 ("netfilter: bridge: move br_netfilter out of the core"),
the bridge netfilter code has been modularized.

Use IS_ENABLED instead of ifdef to cover the module case.

As reported by Casper Gripenberg, in a bridged setup, using ip[6]t_REJECT
with the tcp-reset option sends out reset packets with the src MAC address
of the local bridge interface, instead of the MAC address of the intended
destination. This causes some routers/firewalls to drop the reset packet
as it appears to be spoofed. Fix this by bypassing ip[6]_local_out and
setting the MAC of the sender in the tcp reset packet.

This closes netfilter bugzilla #531.

The problem occurs when iptables constructs the tcp reset packet.
It doesn't initialize the pointer to the tcp header within the skb.
When the skb is passed to the ixgbe driver for transmit, the ixgbe
driver attempts to access the tcp header and crashes.
Currently, other drivers (such as our 1G e1000e or igb drivers) don't
access the tcp header on transmit unless the TSO option is turned on.

ed6e4ef836d425bc35e33bf20fcec95e68203afa 18-Jun-2011 Julian Anastasov <ja@ssi.bg> netfilter: Fix ip_route_me_harder triggering ip_rt_bug

Avoid creating input routes with ip_route_me_harder.
It does not work for locally generated packets. Instead,
restrict sockets to provide valid saddr for output route (or
unicast saddr for transparent proxy). For other traffic
allow saddr to be unicast or local but if callers forget
to check saddr type use 0 for the output route.

The resulting handling should be:

- REJECT TCP:
- in INPUT we can provide addr_type = RTN_LOCAL but
better allow rejecting traffic delivered with
local route (no IP address => use RTN_UNSPEC to
allow also RTN_UNICAST).
- FORWARD: RTN_UNSPEC => allow RTN_LOCAL/RTN_UNICAST
saddr, add fix to ignore RTN_BROADCAST and RTN_MULTICAST
- OUTPUT: RTN_UNSPEC

- NAT, mangle, ip_queue, nf_ip_reroute: RTN_UNSPEC in LOCAL_OUT

- IPVS:
- use RTN_LOCAL in LOCAL_OUT and FORWARD after SNAT
to restrict saddr to be local

Always go through a new ip4_dst_hoplimit() helper, just like ipv6.

This allowed several simplifications:

1) The interim dst_metric_hoplimit() can go as it's no longer
userd.

2) The sysctl_ip_default_ttl entry no longer needs to use
ipv4_doint_and_flush, since the sysctl is not cached in
routing cache metrics any longer.

3) ipv4_doint_and_flush no longer needs to be exported and
therefore can be marked static.

When ipv4_doint_and_flush_strategy was removed some time ago,
the external declaration in ip.h was mistakenly left around
so kill that off too.

We have to move the sysctl_ip_default_ttl declaration into
ipv4's route cache definition header net/route.h, because
currently net/ip.h (where the declaration lives now) has
a back dependency on net/route.h

ip_route_me_harder can't create the route cache when the outdev is the same
with the indev for the skbs whichout a valid protocol set.

__mkroute_input functions has this check:
1998 if (skb->protocol != htons(ETH_P_IP)) {
1999 /* Not IP (i.e. ARP). Do not create route, if it is
2000 * invalid for proxy arp. DNAT routes are always valid.
2001 *
2002 * Proxy arp feature have been extended to allow, ARP
2003 * replies back to the same interface, to support
2004 * Private VLAN switch technologies. See arp.c.
2005 */
2006 if (out_dev == in_dev &&
2007 IN_DEV_PROXY_ARP_PVLAN(in_dev) == 0) {
2008 err = -EINVAL;
2009 goto cleanup;
2010 }
2011 }

This patch gives the new skb a valid protocol to bypass this check. In order
to make ipt_REJECT work with bridges, you also need to enable ip_forward.

This patch also fixes a regression. When we used skb_copy_expand(), we
didn't have this issue stated above, as the protocol was properly set.

postpone the checksum calculation, then if the output NIC supports checksum
offloading, we can utlize it. And though the output NIC doesn't support
checksum offloading, but we'll mangle this packet, this can free us from
updating the checksum, as the checksum calculation occurs later.

5a0e3ad6af8660be21ca98a971cd00f331318c05 24-Mar-2010 Tejun Heo <tj@kernel.org> include cleanup: Update gfp.h and slab.h includes to prepare for breaking implicit slab.h inclusion from percpu.h

percpu.h is included by sched.h and module.h and thus ends up being
included when building most .c files. percpu.h includes slab.h which
in turn includes gfp.h making everything defined by the two files
universally available and complicating inclusion dependencies.

percpu.h -> slab.h dependency is about to be removed. Prepare for
this change by updating users of gfp and slab facilities include those
headers directly instead of assuming availability. As this conversion
needs to touch large number of source files, the following script is
used as the basis of conversion.

http://userweb.kernel.org/~tj/misc/slabh-sweep.py

The script does the followings.

* Scan files for gfp and slab usages and update includes such that
only the necessary includes are there. ie. if only gfp is used,
gfp.h, if slab is used, slab.h.

* When the script inserts a new include, it looks at the include
blocks and try to put the new include such that its order conforms
to its surrounding. It's put in the include block which contains
core kernel includes, in the same order that the rest are ordered -
alphabetical, Christmas tree, rev-Xmas-tree or at the end if there
doesn't seem to be any matching order.

* If the script can't find a place to put a new include (mostly
because the file doesn't have fitting include block), it prints out
an error message indicating which .h file needs to be added to the
file.

The conversion was done in the following steps.

1. The initial automatic conversion of all .c files updated slightly
over 4000 files, deleting around 700 includes and adding ~480 gfp.h
and ~3000 slab.h inclusions. The script emitted errors for ~400
files.

2. Each error was manually checked. Some didn't need the inclusion,
some needed manual addition while adding it to implementation .h or
embedding .c file was more appropriate for others. This step added
inclusions to around 150 files.

3. The script was run again and the output was compared to the edits
from #2 to make sure no file was left behind.

4. Several build tests were done and a couple of problems were fixed.
e.g. lib/decompress_*.c used malloc/free() wrappers around slab
APIs requiring slab.h to be added manually.

5. The script was run on all .h files but without automatically
editing them as sprinkling gfp.h and slab.h inclusions around .h
files could easily lead to inclusion dependency hell. Most gfp.h
inclusion directives were ignored as stuff from gfp.h was usually
wildly available and often used in preprocessor macros. Each
slab.h inclusion directive was examined and added manually as
necessary.

6. percpu.h was updated not to include slab.h.

7. Build test were done on the following configurations and failures
were fixed. CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL was turned off for all tests (as my
distributed build env didn't work with gcov compiles) and a few
more options had to be turned off depending on archs to make things
build (like ipr on powerpc/64 which failed due to missing writeq).

* x86 and x86_64 UP and SMP allmodconfig and a custom test config.
* powerpc and powerpc64 SMP allmodconfig
* sparc and sparc64 SMP allmodconfig
* ia64 SMP allmodconfig
* s390 SMP allmodconfig
* alpha SMP allmodconfig
* um on x86_64 SMP allmodconfig

8. percpu.h modifications were reverted so that it could be applied as
a separate patch and serve as bisection point.

Given the fact that I had only a couple of failures from tests on step
6, I'm fairly confident about the coverage of this conversion patch.
If there is a breakage, it's likely to be something in one of the arch
headers which should be easily discoverable easily on most builds of
the specific arch.

Every netfilter module uses `init' for its module_init() function and
`fini' or `cleanup' for its module_exit() function.

So go through and rename them all to $(filename)_init and

The bridge netfilter code simulates the NF_IP_PRE_ROUTING hook and skips
the real hook by registering with high priority and returning NF_STOP if
skb->nf_bridge is present and the BRNF_NF_BRIDGE_PREROUTING flag is not
set. The flag is only set during the simulated hook.

Because skb->nf_bridge is only freed when the packet is destroyed, the
packet will not only skip the first invocation of NF_IP_PRE_ROUTING, but
in the case of tunnel devices on top of the bridge also all further ones.
Forwarded packets from a bridge encapsulated by a tunnel device and sent
as locally outgoing packet will also still have the incorrect bridge
information from the input path attached.

We already have nf_reset calls on all RX/TX paths of tunnel devices,
so simply reset the nf_bridge field there too. As an added bonus,
the bridge information for locally delivered packets is now also freed
when the packet is queued to a socket.

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.

As discussed at netconf'05, we're trying to save every bit in sk_buff.
The patch below makes sk_buff 8 bytes smaller. I did some basic
testing on my notebook and it seems to work.

The only real in-tree user of nfcache was IPVS, who only needs a
single bit. Unfortunately I couldn't find some other free bit in
sk_buff to stuff that bit into, so I introduced a separate field for
them. Maybe the IPVS guys can resolve that to further save space.

Initially I wanted to shrink pkt_type to three bits (PACKET_HOST and
alike are only 6 values defined), but unfortunately the bluetooth code
overloads pkt_type :(

The conntrack-event-api (out-of-tree) uses nfcache, but Rusty just
came up with a way how to do it without any skb fields, so it's safe
to remove it.

- remove all never-implemented 'nfcache' code
- don't have ipvs code abuse 'nfcache' field. currently get's their own
compile-conditional skb->ipvs_property field. IPVS maintainers can
decide to move this bit elswhere, but nfcache needs to die.
- remove skb->nfcache field to save 4 bytes
- move skb->nfctinfo into three unused bits to save further 4 bytes
