* sync-mode: rename mcast_track_*() by nethdr_track_*()Pablo Neira Ayuso2009-03-121-2/+2
| | | | | | | | This patch is a cleanup. It renames the mcast_track_*() functions by nethdr_track_*() because this functions are related to message sequence tracking. They are not stick to multicast at all. Signed-off-by: Pablo Neira Ayuso <pablo@netfilter.org>
* sync-mode: add abstract layer to make daemon independent of multicastPablo Neira Ayuso2009-03-121-2/+2
| | | | | | | | | This patch reworks conntrackd to make it independent of the protocol used to propagate state-changes. This patch adds the channel layer abstraction, this layer allows you to add support for different protocols like unicast UDP or TIPC. Signed-off-by: Pablo Neira Ayuso <pablo@netfilter.org>
* src: remove obsolete debug() and debug_ct() callsPablo Neira Ayuso2009-02-201-1/+0
| | | | | | | This patch removes debug() and debug_ct(), I haven't use the debugging information that these functions provide in years. Signed-off-by: Pablo Neira Ayuso <pablo@netfilter.org>
* cache: move lifetime feature to main cache codePablo Neira Ayuso2009-01-251-2/+2
| | | | | | | | The lifetime feature is used by all working modes, it is useful to know how long it has been an entry living in the cache. This patch moves the lifetime feature to the main caching code. Signed-off-by: Pablo Neira Ayuso <pablo@netfilter.org>
* sync: enqueue state updates to tx_queuePablo Neira Ayuso2009-01-171-1/+11
| | | | | | | | | | With this patch, all the states updates are enqueued in the tx_queue. Thus, there's a single output path. This patch adds a simple refcounting mechanism to note when an object is sitting in the txqueue. This patch also removes the alarm that is required by the ftfw approach.

* sync: add generic tx_queue for all synchronization modesPablo Neira Ayuso2009-01-171-32/+5
| | | | | | This patch adds a generic tx queue for all synchronization modes. Signed-off-by: Pablo Neira Ayuso <pablo@netfilter.org>
* sync: unify tx_list and tx_queue into one single tx_queuePablo Neira Ayuso2009-01-151-59/+55
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch unifies the tx_list and the tx_queue to have only one transmission queue. Since the tx_list hold state objects and tx_queue control messages, I have introduced a queue node type that can be used to differenciate the kind of information that the node stores: object or control message. This patch also reworks the existing queue class to include a file descriptor that can be used to know if there are new data added to the queue (see QUEUE_F_EVFD flag). In this change, I have also modified the current evfd to make the file descriptor to make read operations non-blocking. Moreover, it keeps a counter that is used to know how many messages are inserted in the queue. Signed-off-by: Pablo Neira Ayuso <pablo@netfilter.org>
* src: rework of the hash-cache infrastructurePablo Neira Ayuso2009-01-151-10/+9
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently, the caching system is implemented in a two layer architecture: hashtable (inner layer) and cache (upper layer). This patch reworks the hash-cache infrastructure to solve some initial design problems to make it more flexible, the main strong points of this patch are: * Memory handling is done in the cache layer, not in the inner hashtable layer. This removes one of the main dependencies between the hashtable and the cache classes. * Remove excessive encapsulation: the former cache used to hide a lot of details of the inner hashtable implementation. * Fix over-hashing of some operations: lookup-delete-add required three hash calculations. Similarly, the update-or-add operation required two hash calculations. Now, we calculate the hash once and re-use the value how many times as we need. This patch simplifies the caching system. As a result, we save ~130 lines of code. Small code means and less complexity means less chance to have bugs. Signed-off-by: Pablo Neira Ayuso <pablo@netfilter.org>
* network: do more strict message type checkingPablo Neira Ayuso2008-12-131-0/+1
| | | | | | | This patch adds more strict checking in the message type. We add a new message type NET_T_CTL for control messages. Signed-off-by: Pablo Neira Ayuso <pablo@netfilter.org>
* network: use NET_T_* instead of NFCT_Q_*Pablo Neira Ayuso2008-12-131-1/+1
| | | | | | | | This patch replaces the use of NFCT_Q_* in the message type by specific network message type NET_T_*. The query types are reserved for libnetfilter_conntrack operations. Signed-off-by: Pablo Neira Ayuso <pablo@netfilter.org>
* network: remove the netpld header from the messagesPablo Neira Ayuso2008-12-081-3/+2
| | | | | | | | | This patch simplifies the message format of the replication messages. As a result, we save four bytes. The netpld header was introduced in the early protocol design. Today, it does not have any reason to exist. Signed-off-by: Pablo Neira Ayuso <pablo@netfilter.org>
* network: remove length parameter of mcast_buffered_send_netmsg()Pablo Neira Ayuso2008-12-081-2/+2
| | | | | | | | This patch simplifies mcast_buffered_send_netmsg() by removing the length parameter. Instead, we use the length field in the nethdr to know the message size to be sent. Signed-off-by: Pablo Neira Ayuso <pablo@netfilter.org>
* notrack: fix double receival of resync requestsPablo Neira Ayuso2008-10-201-0/+21
| | | | | | | This patch fixes double insertion in the tx_list if we receive two (or more) consecutive resync request in short time. Signed-off-by: Pablo Neira Ayuso <pablo@netfilter.org>
* add best effort replication protocol (aka NOTRACK)Pablo Neira Ayuso2008-05-251-0/+184

* o Use more appropriate names for the existing synchronization modes:/C=EU/ST=EU/CN=Pablo Neira Ayuso/emailAddress=pablo@netfilter.org2007-12-211-104/+0
| | | | | | o rename `persistent' mode to `alarm' o rename `nack' mode to `ftfw' o Now default synchronization mode is ftfw instead of alarm

| | | | | | | | | | | | | - add len field to nethdr - implement buffered send/recv to batch messages - stop using netlink format for network messages: use similar TLV-based format - reduce synchronization messages size up to 60% - introduce periodic alive messages for sync-nack protocol - timeslice alarm implementation: remove alarm pthread, remove locking - simplify debugging functions: use nfct_snprintf instead - remove major use of libnfnetlink functions: use libnetfilter_conntrack API - deprecate conntrackd -F, use conntrack -F instead - major rework of the network infrastructure: much simple, less messy
* - more cleanups and code refactorization/C=EU/ST=EU/CN=Pablo Neira Ayuso/emailAddress=pablo@netfilter.org2007-06-191-10/+3
| | | | | | - remove several debug calls - create a child to dispatch dump requests: this will help to simplify the current locking schema. Later.
* o remove useless backlog parameter in multicast sockets/C=EU/ST=EU/CN=Pablo Neira Ayuso/emailAddress=pablo@netfilter.org2007-06-041-33/+11
| | | | | | | | o remove reminiscents of delay destroy message and relax transitions o remove confusing StripNAT parameter: NAT support enabled by default o relax event tracking: *_update callbacks use cache_update_force o use wraparound-aware functions after/before/between o lots of cleanups
* - remove dead code sync-mode.c/C=EU/ST=EU/CN=Pablo Neira Ayuso/emailAddress=pablo@netfilter.org2007-05-181-1/+3
| | | | | | | - flush nack queue in the conntrackd -f path - do not increase add_fail counter for EEXIST errors - cleanup sync-nack code - improve mcast_recv_netmsg: sanity check before checksumming!
* first step forward to merge conntrackd and conntrack into the same building ↵/C=EU/ST=EU/CN=Pablo Neira Ayuso/emailAddress=pablo@netfilter.org2007-04-161-0/+127
