Commit Message

REJECT statement can be only used in INPUT, FORWARD and OUTPUT
chains. This patch adds support of REJECT, both icmp and tcp
reset, at PREROUTING stage.

The need for this patch becomes from the requirement of some
forwarding devices to reject traffic before the natting and
routing decisions.

It is supported ipv4, ipv6 and inet families for nft
infrastructure.

Hmm, won't that need error handling for the case where we can't find
a route?

Right. I'll send a v2.

Thanks.

on the other hand you shoot yourself in the foot if you REJECT in
response of "ctstate INVALID" which is a such better place in "-t mangle
PREROUTING" because the reject to out of order re-transmit will kill
your connections

in the worst case you even send ICMP responses back to a forged source

The main use case is to be able to send a graceful termination to
legitimate clients that, under any circumstances, the NATed endpoints
are not available. This option allows clients to decide either to
perform a reconnection or manage the error in their side, instead of
just dropping the connection and let them die due to timeout.

Thanks for your comments.
