netfilter: nf_tables: use NLA_POLICY_MASK to test for valid flag options

nf_tables relies on manual test of netlink attributes coming from userspace
even in cases where this could be handled via netlink policy.

Convert a bunch of 'flag' attributes to use NLA_POLICY_MASK checks.

netfilter: nf_tables: relax set/map validation checks

Its currently not allowed to perform queries on a map, for example:

table t {
map m {
typeof ip saddr : meta mark
..

chain c {
ip saddr @m counter

will fail, because kernel requires that userspace provides a destination
register when the referenced set is a map.

However, internally there is no real distinction between sets and maps,
maps are just sets where each key is associated with a value.

Relax this so that maps can be used just like sets.

This allows to have rules that query if a given key exists
without making use of the associated value.

This also permits != checks which don't work for map lookups.

When no destination reg is given for a map, then permit this for named
maps.

Data and dump paths need to be updated to consider priv->dreg_set
instead of the 'set-is-a-map' check.

Checks in reduce and validate callbacks are not changed, this
can be relaxed later if a need arises.

netfilter: nftables: add catch-all set element support

This patch extends the set infrastructure to add a special catch-all set
element. If the lookup fails to find an element (or range) in the set,
then the catch-all element is selected. Users can specify a mapping,
expression(s) and timeout to be attached to the catch-all element.

This patch adds a catchall list to the set, this list might contain more
than one single catch-all element (e.g. in case that the catch-all
element is removed and a new one is added in the same transaction).
However, most of the time, there will be either one element or no
elements at all in this list.

The catch-all element is identified via NFT_SET_ELEM_CATCHALL flag and
such special element has no NFTA_SET_ELEM_KEY attribute. There is a new
nft_set_elem_catchall object that stores a reference to the dummy
catch-all element (catchall->elem) whose layout is the same of the set
element type to reuse the existing set element codebase.

The set size does not apply to the catch-all element, users can define a
catch-all element even if the set is full.

The check for valid set element flags hava been updates to report
EOPNOTSUPP in case userspace requests flags that are not supported when
using new userspace nftables and old kernel.

netfilter: nf_tables: allow lookups in dynamic sets

This un-breaks lookups in sets that have the 'dynamic' flag set.
Given this active example configuration:

table filter {
set set1 {
type ipv4_addr
size 64
flags dynamic,timeout
timeout 1m
}

chain input {
type filter hook input priority 0; policy accept;
}
}

... this works:
nft add rule ip filter input add @set1 { ip saddr }

-> whenever rule is triggered, the source ip address is inserted
into the set (if it did not exist).

This won't work:
nft add rule ip filter input ip saddr @set1 counter
Error: Could not process rule: Operation not supported

In other words, we can add entries to the set, but then can't make
matching decision based on that set.

That is just wrong -- all set backends support lookups (else they would
not be very useful).
The failure comes from an explicit rejection in nft_lookup.c.

Looking at the history, it seems like NFT_SET_EVAL used to mean
'set contains expressions' (aka. "is a meter"), for instance something like

nft add rule ip filter input meter example { ip saddr limit rate 10/second }
or
nft add rule ip filter input meter example { ip saddr counter }

The actual meaning of NFT_SET_EVAL however, is
'set can be updated from the packet path'.

'meters' and packet-path insertions into sets, such as
'add @set { ip saddr }' use exactly the same kernel code (nft_dynset.c)
and thus require a set backend that provides the ->update() function.

The only set that provides this also is the only one that has the
NFT_SET_EVAL feature flag.

Removing the wrong check makes the above example work.
While at it, also fix the flag check during set instantiation to
allow supported combinations only.

netfilter: nf_tables: unbind set in rule from commit path

Anonymous sets that are bound to rules from the same transaction trigger
a kernel splat from the abort path due to double set list removal and
double free.

This patch updates the logic to search for the transaction that is
responsible for creating the set and disable the set list removal and
release, given the rule is now responsible for this. Lookup is reverse
since the transaction that adds the set is likely to be at the tail of
the list.

Moreover, this patch adds the unbind step to deliver the event from the
commit path. This should not be done from the worker thread, since we
have no guarantees of in-order delivery to the listener.

This patch removes the assumption that both activate and deactivate
callbacks need to be provided.

netfilter: nf_tables: fix jumpstack depth validation

The level of struct nft_ctx is updated by nf_tables_check_loops(). That
is used to validate jumpstack depth. But jumpstack validation routine
doesn't update and validate recursively. So, in some cases, chain depth
can be bigger than the NFT_JUMP_STACK_SIZE.

After this patch, The jumpstack validation routine is located in the
nft_chain_validate(). When new rules or new set elements are added, the
nft_table_validate() is called by the nf_tables_newrule and the
nf_tables_newsetelem. The nft_table_validate() calls the
nft_chain_validate() that visit all their children chains recursively.
So it can update depth of chain certainly.

Reproducer:
%cat ./test.sh
#!/bin/bash
nft add table ip filter
nft add chain ip filter input { type filter hook input priority 0\; }
for ((i=0;i<20;i++)); do
nft add chain ip filter a$i
done

nft add rule ip filter input jump a1

for ((i=0;i<10;i++)); do
nft add rule ip filter a$i jump a$((i+1))
done

for ((i=11;i<19;i++)); do
nft add rule ip filter a$i jump a$((i+1))
done

nft add rule ip filter a10 jump a11

netfilter: nf_tables: fix chain dependency validation

The following ruleset:

add table ip filter
add chain ip filter input { type filter hook input priority 4; }
add chain ip filter ap
add rule ip filter input jump ap
add rule ip filter ap masquerade

results in a panic, because the masquerade extension should be rejected
from the filter chain. The existing validation is missing a chain
dependency check when the rule is added to the non-base chain.

This patch fixes the problem by walking down the rules from the
basechains, searching for either immediate or lookup expressions, then
jumping to non-base chains and again walking down the rules to perform
the expression validation, so we make sure the full ruleset graph is
validated. This is done only once from the commit phase, in case of
problem, we abort the transaction and perform fine grain validation for
error reporting. This patch requires 003087911af2 ("netfilter:
nfnetlink: allow commit to fail") to achieve this behaviour.

This patch also adds a cleanup callback to nfnl batch interface to reset
the validate state from the exit path.

As a result of this patch, nf_tables_check_loops() doesn't use
->validate to check for loops, instead it just checks for immediate
expressions.

netfilter: nf_tables: simplify the basic expressions' init routine

Some basic expressions are built into nf_tables.ko, such as nft_cmp,
nft_lookup, nft_range and so on. But these basic expressions' init
routine is a little ugly, too many goto errX labels, and we forget
to call nft_range_module_exit in the exit routine, although it is
harmless.

Acctually, the init and exit routines of these basic expressions
are same, i.e. do nft_register_expr in the init routine and do
nft_unregister_expr in the exit routine.

So it's better to arrange them into an array and deal with them

Introduce a new configuration option for this expression, which allows users
to invert the logic of set lookups.

In _init() we will now return EINVAL if NFT_LOOKUP_F_INV is in anyway
related to a map lookup.

The code in the _eval() function has been untangled and updated to sopport the
XOR of options, as we should consider 4 cases:
* lookup false, invert false -> NFT_BREAK
* lookup false, invert true -> return w/o NFT_BREAK
* lookup true, invert false -> return w/o NFT_BREAK
* lookup true, invert true -> NFT_BREAK

Add a set flag to indicate that the set is used as a state table and

netfilter: nf_tables: switch registers to 32 bit addressing

Switch the nf_tables registers from 128 bit addressing to 32 bit
addressing to support so called concatenations, where multiple values
can be concatenated over multiple registers for O(1) exact matches of
multiple dimensions using sets.

The old register values are mapped to areas of 128 bits for compatibility.
When dumping register numbers, values are expressed using the old values
if they refer to the beginning of a 128 bit area for compatibility.

To support concatenations, register loads of less than a full 32 bit
value need to be padded. This mainly affects the payload and exthdr
expressions, which both unconditionally zero the last word before
copying the data.

Userspace fully passes the testsuite using both old and new register
addressing.

Currently a set binding is assumed to be related to a lookup and, in

netfilter: nf_tables: use new transaction infrastructure to handle sets

This patch reworks the nf_tables API so set updates are included in
the same batch that contains rule updates. This speeds up rule-set
updates since we skip a dialog of four messages between kernel and
user-space (two on each direction), from:

1) create the set and send netlink message to the kernel
2) process the response from the kernel that contains the allocated name.
3) add the set elements and send netlink message to the kernel.
4) process the response from the kernel (to check for errors).

To:

1) add the set to the batch.
2) add the set elements to the batch.
3) add the rule that points to the set.
4) send batch to the kernel.

This also introduces an internal set ID (NFTA_SET_ID) that is unique
in the batch so set elements and rules can refer to new sets.

Backward compatibility has been only retained in userspace, this
means that new nft versions can talk to the kernel both in the new
and the old fashion.

# 20a69341 10-Oct-2013 Patrick McHardy <kaber@trash.net>

netfilter: nf_tables: add netlink set API

This patch adds the new netlink API for maintaining nf_tables sets
independently of the ruleset. The API supports the following operations:

- creation of sets
- deletion of sets
- querying of specific sets
- dumping of all sets

- addition of set elements
- removal of set elements
- dumping of all set elements

Sets are identified by name, each table defines an individual namespace.
The name of a set may be allocated automatically, this is mostly useful
in combination with the NFT_SET_ANONYMOUS flag, which destroys a set
automatically once the last reference has been released.

Sets can be marked constant, meaning they're not allowed to change while
linked to a rule. This allows to perform lockless operation for set
types that would otherwise require locking.

Additionally, if the implementation supports it, sets can (as before) be
used as maps, associating a data value with each key (or range), by
specifying the NFT_SET_MAP flag and can be used for interval queries by
specifying the NFT_SET_INTERVAL flag.

Set elements are added and removed incrementally. All element operations
support batching, reducing netlink message and set lookup overhead.

The old "set" and "hash" expressions are replaced by a generic "lookup"
expression, which binds to the specified set. Userspace is not aware
of the actual set implementation used by the kernel anymore, all
configuration options are generic.

Currently the implementation selection logic is largely missing and the
kernel will simply use the first registered implementation supporting the
requested operation. Eventually, the plan is to have userspace supply a
description of the data characteristics and select the implementation
based on expected performance and memory use.

This patch includes the new 'lookup' expression to look up for element
matching in the set.

This patch includes kernel-doc descriptions for this set API and it
also includes the following fixes.

From Patrick McHardy:
* netfilter: nf_tables: fix set element data type in dumps
* netfilter: nf_tables: fix indentation of struct nft_set_elem comments
* netfilter: nf_tables: fix oops in nft_validate_data_load()
* netfilter: nf_tables: fix oops while listing sets of built-in tables
* netfilter: nf_tables: destroy anonymous sets immediately if binding fails
* netfilter: nf_tables: propagate context to set iter callback
* netfilter: nf_tables: add loop detection

From Pablo Neira Ayuso:
* netfilter: nf_tables: allow to dump all existing sets
* netfilter: nf_tables: fix wrong type for flags variable in newelem
