* evaluate: reject: Allow icmpx in inet/bridge familiesPhil Sutter2018-08-147-6/+119
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Commit 3e6ab2b335142 added restraints on reject types for bridge and inet families but aparently those were too strict: If a rule in e.g. inet family contained a match which introduced a protocol dependency, icmpx type rejects were disallowed for no obvious reason. Allow icmpx type rejects in inet family regardless of protocol dependency since we either have IPv4 or IPv6 traffic in there and for both icmpx is fine. Merge restraints in bridge family with those for TCP reset since it already does what is needed, namely checking that ether proto is either IPv4 or IPv6.

* src: Set/print standard chain prios with textual namesMáté Eckl2018-08-1421-36/+333
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch adds the possibility to use textual names to set the chain priority to standard values so that numeric values do not need to be learnt any more for basic usage. Basic arithmetic can also be done with them to ease the addition of relatively higher/lower priority chains. Addition and substraction is possible. Values are also printed with their friendly name within the range of <basicprio> +- 10. Also numeric printing is supported in case of -nnn option (numeric == NFT_NUMERIC_ALL) The supported name-value pairs and where they are valid is based on how x_tables use these values when registering their base chains. (See iptables/nft.c in the iptables repository). Also see the compatibility matrices extracted from the man page: Standard priority names, family and hook compatibility matrix ┌─────────┬───────┬────────────────┬─────────────┐ │Name │ Value │ Families │ Hooks │ ├─────────┼───────┼────────────────┼─────────────┤ │ │ │ │ │ │raw │ -300 │ ip, ip6, inet │ all │ ├─────────┼───────┼────────────────┼─────────────┤ │ │ │ │ │ │mangle │ -150 │ ip, ip6, inet │ all │ ├─────────┼───────┼────────────────┼─────────────┤ │ │ │ │ │ │dstnat │ -100 │ ip, ip6, inet │ prerouting │ ├─────────┼───────┼────────────────┼─────────────┤ │ │ │ │ │ │filter │ 0 │ ip, ip6, inet, │ all │ │ │ │ arp, netdev │ │ ├─────────┼───────┼────────────────┼─────────────┤ │ │ │ │ │ │security │ 50 │ ip, ip6, inet │ all │ ├─────────┼───────┼────────────────┼─────────────┤ │ │ │ │ │ │srcnat │ 100 │ ip, ip6, inet │ postrouting │ └─────────┴───────┴────────────────┴─────────────┘ Standard priority names and hook compatibility for the bridge family ┌───────┬───────┬─────────────┐ │ │ │ │ │Name │ Value │ Hooks │ ├───────┼───────┼─────────────┤ │ │ │ │ │dstnat │ -300 │ prerouting │ ├───────┼───────┼─────────────┤ │ │ │ │ │filter │ -200 │ all │ ├───────┼───────┼─────────────┤ │ │ │ │ │out │ 100 │ output │ ├───────┼───────┼─────────────┤ │ │ │ │ │srcnat │ 300 │ postrouting │ └───────┴───────┴─────────────┘ This can be also applied for flowtables wher it works as a netdev family chain.

See e.g. "tcp option" line under EXTENSION HEADER EXPRESSIONS 5. Tables have a lot of empty lines in them. 6.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch adds support for transparent proxy functionality which is supported in ip, ip6 and inet tables. The syntax is the following: tproxy [{|ip|ip6}] to {<ip address>|:<port>|<ip address>:<port>} It looks for a socket listening on the specified address or port and assigns it to the matching packet. In an inet table, a packet matches for both families until address is specified. Network protocol family has to be specified **only** in inet tables if address is specified. As transparent proxy support is implemented for sockets with layer 4 information, a transport protocol header criterion has to be set in the same rule. eg. 'meta l4proto tcp' or 'udp dport 4444' Example ruleset: table ip x { chain y { type filter hook prerouting priority -150; policy accept; tcp dport ntp tproxy to 1.1.1.1 udp dport ssh tproxy to :2222 } } table ip6 x { chain y { type filter hook prerouting priority -150; policy accept; tcp dport ntp tproxy to [dead::beef] udp dport ssh tproxy to :2222 } } table inet x { chain y { type filter hook prerouting priority -150; policy accept; tcp dport 321 tproxy to :ssh tcp dport 99 tproxy ip to 1.1.1.1:999 udp dport 155 tproxy ip6 to [dead::beef]:smux } } Signed-off-by: Máté Eckl <ecklm94@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Pablo Neira Ayuso <pablo@netfilter.org>
