Commit Message

Harsha Sharma July 5, 2018, 4:06 p.m. UTC
This patch allows to add, list and delete connection tracking timeout
policies via nft objref infrastructure and assigning these timeout
via nft rule.

Ruleset:

table ip raw {
   ct timeout cttime {
       protocol tcp
       established 111 close 13
       l3proto ip
   }

   chain output {
       type filter hook output priority -300; policy accept;
       ct timeout set "cttime"
   }
}

%./libnftnl/examples/nft-ct-timeout-add ip raw cttime tcp
%./libnftnl/examples/nft-rule-ct-timeout-add ip raw output cttime

%conntrack -E
[NEW] tcp      6 111 ESTABLISHED src=172.16.19.128 dst=172.16.19.1
sport=22 dport=41360 [UNREPLIED] src=172.16.19.1 dst=172.16.19.128

Why this is needed? Probably doesn't belong here?

Why not use struct nf_conn_timeout from struct nf_conn? You can use
helpers in net/netfilter/nf_conntrack_timeout.h that allows you to
reach the timeout extension for tmpl.

Please, remove this chunk. Well this empty line can be removed, but
better not do it in this patch.

Reverse order for variable definition is preferred, ie.

	struct nlattr **tb;
	int ret = 0;

I mean, largest line with variable definition first.

This cannot ever happen, right? If priv->tmpl is NULL, then it means
we have had an initialization problem.

Better make it:

	if (nf_ct_get(skb, &ctinfo))
                return;

> +		nf_ct_set(skb, priv->tmpl, IP_CT_NEW);
        ^^^^^^^^
So you save an indentation level here.

Please, reorder variable definitions.

This attribute above is mandatory too I think, right? Better place it
in the EINVAL check above.

This initialization is not OK. It will clear the global timeout list,
you have to do this from net/netfilter/nf_tables_api.c, from the
_init() module path, not from here.

You better do the list addition as the last thing, after timeout
object is fully initialized.

> +	priv->timeout = timeout;
> +	tmpl = nf_ct_tmpl_alloc(ctx->net, zone, GFP_ATOMIC);

You have to check if nf_ct_tmpl_alloc() if nf_ct_tmpl_alloc() fails,
ie. NULL

> +	tmpl->zone.id = 4;

Remove this line above, just set zone to zero.

> +	priv->ext = timeout_ext;

Ah I see, no need for priv->ext. You can just get it using the helpers
I mentioned above to fetch the extension from priv->tmpl.

You have to add "goto err3" here and unwind nft_ct_helper_obj_type
registration.
