* cache: fix ENOSPC errors due to over-population of inactive entriesPablo Neira Ayuso2008-12-221-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch fixes a problem that can result in cache over-population with inactive entries due to mismatching in the comparison. This may result in lots of ENOSPC errors while trying to add new entries to the internal cache. We may have entries in the internal cache that with the same original tuple, but different reply tuple due to NAT port adjustment. Thus, the comparison that happens during the entry hashtable lookup fails and we add a new entry while keeping the old one. Signed-off-by: Pablo Neira Ayuso <pablo@netfilter.org>
* cache_iterators: add total entries available in the cache to statsPablo Neira Ayuso2008-12-221-2/+2
| | | | | | | | | This patch adds the total number of entries currently living in the cache. Currently, we have two type of entries, active and inactive. The inactive ones talk about an ended connection. This is useful for trouble-shooting if we hit enospc when adding new entries. Signed-off-by: Pablo Neira Ayuso <pablo@netfilter.org>
* src: add cache statistics via `-s cache'Pablo Neira Ayuso2008-12-211-21/+68
| | | | | | | | | | | | This patch adds cache statistics that you can check via `conntrackd -s cache'. This information is useful for trouble-shooting. This patch replaces several log messages that can be triggered in runtime. The idea behind this patch is to avoid log message flooding under errors.

* cache: cleanup, rename __del2() by __del()Pablo Neira Ayuso2008-12-171-3/+3
| | | | | | | This patch renames __del2() by __del(). The name of this function is a reminiscent of a removed __del() function time ago. Signed-off-by: Pablo Neira Ayuso <pablo@netfilter.org>
* src: cleanup, rename hashtable_test() by hashtable_find()Pablo Neira Ayuso2008-12-171-4/+4
| | | | | | | | This patch renames the function hashtable_test() by hashtable_find() which is a better name IMO to describe this function. Signed-off-by: Pablo Neira Ayuso <pablo@netfilter.org>
* cache: use jhash2 instead of double jhash+jhash_2wordsPablo Neira Ayuso2008-10-211-19/+17
| | | | | | | | Currently, oprofile reports ~17% of sample in the hashing. With this patch, that uses jhash2 instead of a double call to jhash and one to jhash_2words, it goes down to ~11%. Signed-off-by: Pablo Neira Ayuso <pablo@netfilter.org>
* cache: fix update of scheduled-to-timeout entriesPablo Neira Ayuso2008-10-201-44/+55
| | | | | | | This patch fixes a problem that allows the update of entries that are scheduled to be removed. Signed-off-by: Pablo Neira Ayuso <pablo@netfilter.org>
* ftfw: show consistent information to users for problem diagnosingPablo Neira Ayuso2008-08-011-2/+12
| | | | | | | | | | This patch hides information that may confuse users while they are diagnosing problems in their setup. For example, we hide entries that are schedule to expire - from the user side, they are already destroyed entries; and we show in the counters the real active entries, not all that are stored in the caches.

* fix broken normal deletion in cachesPablo Neira Ayuso2008-08-011-31/+31
| | | | | | | | | | | | This patch fixes the non-timer-based cache deletion. This bug affects the alarm-based approach since the backup replicas did not get the deletion event, thus, delaying the deletion. This patch introduces cache_find() to look up for a conntrack object and __cache_del_timer() to perform direct deletions by means of the pointer obtained with cache_find(). Signed-off-by: Pablo Neira Ayuso <pablo@netfilter.org>
* add more sanity checks in the input pathPablo Neira Ayuso2008-08-011-8/+0
| | | | | | | Some users have reported crashes when nf_conntrack_ipv6 was not present. This patch performs more robust sanity checks in the input path. Signed-off-by: Pablo Neira Ayuso <pablo@netfilter.org>

* - remove (misleading) counters and use information from the statistics modePablo Neira Ayuso2008-05-161-73/+2
| | | | | - use generic nfct_copy() from libnetfilter_conntrack to update objects - use generic nfct_cmp() to compare objects
* Fix reorder possible reordering of destroy messages under message omission. ↵/C=EU/ST=EU/CN=Pablo Neira Ayuso/emailAddress=pablo@netfilter.org2008-04-291-25/+56
| | | | This patch introduces the TimeoutDestroy clause to determine how long a conntrack remains in the internal cache once it has been destroy from the kernel table.
* revert relicensing... still we use linux_list.h code which seems to be GPLv2 ↵/C=EU/ST=EU/CN=Pablo Neira Ayuso/emailAddress=pablo@netfilter.org2008-03-081-1/+1
