* iptables-compat: Keep xtables-config and xtables-events out from treePablo Neira Ayuso2015-11-111-46/+0
| | | | | | | | | These binaries are part of the compat layer, however they provide more features than actually available in the existing native iptables binaries. So let's keep them out from the tree before the 1.6.0 release as we only want to provide compatibility utils at this stage. Signed-off-by: Pablo Neira Ayuso <pablo@netfilter.org>
* nft: associate table configuration to handle via nft_initGiuseppe Longo2013-12-301-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | We need family dependent built-in table/chain configuration. This patch is a step forward making nft family independent in order to support arptables and ebtables compatibility layers.

* xtables: do not proceed if nft_init failsPablo Neira Ayuso2013-12-301-1/+5
| | | | | | | Fix a crash if nft_init fails, it happens if nfnetlink support is not available in your Linux kernel. Signed-off-by: Pablo Neira Ayuso <pablo@netfilter.org>
* nft: don't call nft_init in nft_xtables_config_loadPablo Neira Ayuso2013-12-301-0/+2
| | | | | | Otherwise we keep initializing the handle over and over again. Signed-off-by: Pablo Neira Ayuso <pablo@netfilter.org>
* nft: load tables and chains based on /etc/xtables.confPablo Neira Ayuso2013-12-301-72/+3
| | | | | | | | | If /etc/xtables.conf is available, use the configuration there to autoload the xtables built-in table and chain so you can define custom configurations. Otherwise, rely on default common table/chain configuration. Signed-off-by: Pablo Neira Ayuso <pablo@netfilter.org>
* xtables-config: priority has to be per-chain to supportPablo Neira Ayuso2013-12-301-1/+3
| | | | | | | To support NAT table chain configuration appropriately. Modify example configuration file as well. Signed-off-by: Pablo Neira Ayuso <pablo@netfilter.org>
* use nf_tables and nf_tables compatibility interfacePablo Neira Ayuso2013-12-301-0/+107
This patch adds the following utilities: * xtables * xtables-restore * xtables-save * xtables-config They all use Patrick's nf_tables infrastructure plus my compatibility layer. xtables, xtables-restore and xtables-save are syntax compatible with ip[6]tables, ip[6]tables-restore and ip[6]tables-save. Semantics aims to be similar, still the main exception is that there is no commit operation. Thus, we incrementally add/delete rules without entire table locking. The following options are also not yet implemented: -Z (this requires adding expr->ops->reset(...) so nft_counters can reset internal state of expressions while dumping it) -R and -E (this requires adding this feature to nf_tables) -f (can be implemented with expressions: payload 6 (2-bytes) + bitwise a&b^!b + cmp neq 0) -IPv6 support. But those are a matter of time to get them done. A new utility, xtables-config, is available to register tables and chains. By default there is a configuration file that adds backward compatible tables and chains under iptables/etc/xtables.conf. You have to call this utility first to register tables and chains. However, it would be possible to automagically register tables and chains while using xtables and xtables-restore to get similar operation than with iptables.
