* json: Work around segfault when encountering xt stmtPhil Sutter2018-10-241-0/+7
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When trying to convert an xt stmt into JSON, print() callback was called. Though the code in src/xt.c does not respect output_fp, therefore buffer wasn't filled as expected making libjansson to puke: | # nft -j list ruleset | warning: stmt ops xt have no json callback | nft: json.c:169: stmt_print_json: Assertion `__out' failed. | Aborted (core dumped) Avoid this by detecting xt stmt ops and returning a stub.

* json: Fix osf ttl supportPhil Sutter2018-10-241-0/+24
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | Having to use numerical values for ttl property in JSON is not practical as these values are arbitrary and meaningful only in netfilter. Instead align JSON output/input with standard API, accepting names for TTL matching strategy. Also add missing documentation in libnftables-json man page and fix JSON equivalent in tests/py.

* doc: Document ct timeout supportHarsha Sharma2018-10-181-3/+49

* JSON: Add metainfo object to all outputPhil Sutter2018-08-301-2/+23
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | Right now this object merely contains the nftables version and release name as well as a JSON schema version, but it could be extended arbitrarily. In the future, this will also allow for non-compatible schema changes should the need for this arise. Adjust the parser to accept metainfo objects and make it verify json_schema_version to be less than or equal to the one hard-coded in the library.

* JSON: Make match op mandatory, introduce 'in' operatorPhil Sutter2018-08-301-2/+11
| | | | | | | | This special operator is required for cases where missing operator does not lead to same results as equal operator, i.e. with bitmasks on RHS. Signed-off-by: Phil Sutter <phil@nwl.cc> Signed-off-by: Pablo Neira Ayuso <pablo@netfilter.org>
* JSON: Rename mangle statement propertiesPhil Sutter2018-08-301-5/+6
| | | | | | | Instead of the generic "left" and "right", use "key" and "value". Signed-off-by: Phil Sutter <phil@nwl.cc> Signed-off-by: Pablo Neira Ayuso <pablo@netfilter.org>
* JSON: Rename (v)map expression propertiesPhil Sutter2018-08-301-8/+8
| | | | | | | | Change the rather generic "left" and "right" into "key" and "data" as suggested at NFWS. Signed-off-by: Phil Sutter <phil@nwl.cc> Signed-off-by: Pablo Neira Ayuso <pablo@netfilter.org>
* JSON: Review payload expressionPhil Sutter2018-08-301-4/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | For raw payloads, property "name" is not needed, it's clearly identified by base/offset/len properties. In non-raw payload expressions, rename property "name" to "protocol" as suggested during NFWS. Signed-off-by: Phil Sutter <phil@nwl.cc> Signed-off-by: Pablo Neira Ayuso <pablo@netfilter.org>
* JSON: Review verdict statement and expressionPhil Sutter2018-08-301-10/+8
| | | | | | | | | | | | Change jump and goto verdicts to become extensible by dedicating an object for the target parameter. While being at it, drop break and queue verdict expressions since they don't seem to exist, no idea where I got those from in the first place. For queue, there is a dedicated expression at least.

* JSON: Make meta statement/expression extensiblePhil Sutter2018-08-301-1/+13
| | | | | | | | | | Lessons learned from fwd statement: We must not assume a given statement/expression may not receive further properties in the future. Therefore make meta value an object with a property "key" instead of just a string containing the key name.

* doc: Review libnftables-json.adocPhil Sutter2018-08-301-101/+87
| | | | | | | | | | | | | Drop the bits for TABLE from synopsis section - adding the remaining objects there as well is tedious and tends to become unreadable. Instead assume that readers will find the objects' descriptions in their sections. Also fix JSON syntax in many objects: The properties are enclosed in an object, of course.

* doc: Improve example in libnftables-json(5)Phil Sutter2018-08-301-3/+26
| | | | | | | | | | | | | The introductory example was a bit flawed in that the third command ('list ruleset') wouldn't yield expected results due to all three commands ending in a single transaction and therefore the changes of the first two commands were not committed yet at the time ruleset was listed. Instead demonstrate adding a chain and a rule to the new table. Signed-off-by: Phil Sutter <phil@nwl.cc> Signed-off-by: Pablo Neira Ayuso <pablo@netfilter.org>
* doc: libnftables-json: Review asciidoc syntaxPhil Sutter2018-06-181-184/+142
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This changes asciidoc markup according to a few best practices recommended in [1] and a quick review of html output: * Use atx-style headings everywhere apart from the document title. This requires to explicitly disable compat-mode after the latter. * Use only the minimum number of dashes for listings. * Enclose verses with empty lines in a verse block instead of having multiple verses for it. * Indent continued lines in synopsis for added readability.

* doc: Add JSON schema documentationPhil Sutter2018-06-111-0/+1236
The document is written as man page in asciidoc which means this adds another dependency to the build system. Though since the (long-term) plan is to replace the docbook-based nft man page with an asciidoc one anyway, we might ultimately get rid of docbook dependency in exchange.
