e8648a1fdb netfilter: add xt_cpu match
In some situations a CPU match permits a better spreading of
connections, or select targets only for a given cpu.

With Remote Packet Steering or multiqueue NIC and appropriate IRQ
affinities, we can distribute trafic on available cpus, per session.
(all RX packets for a given flow is handled by a given cpu)

Some legacy applications being not SMP friendly, one way to scale a
server is to run multiple copies of them.

Instead of randomly choosing an instance, we can use the cpu number as a
key so that softirq handler for a whole instance is running on a single
cpu, maximizing cache effects in TCP/UDP stacks.

Using NAT for example, a four ways machine might run four copies of
server application, using a separate listening port for each instance,
but still presenting an unique external port :

iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -p tcp --dport 80 -m cpu --cpu 0 \
        -j REDIRECT --to-port 8080

iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -p tcp --dport 80 -m cpu --cpu 1 \
        -j REDIRECT --to-port 8081

iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -p tcp --dport 80 -m cpu --cpu 2 \
        -j REDIRECT --to-port 8082

iptables -t nat -A PREROUTING -p tcp --dport 80 -m cpu --cpu 3 \
        -j REDIRECT --to-port 8083

edf0e1fb0d netfilter: add CHECKSUM target
This adds a `CHECKSUM' target, which can be used in the iptables mangle
table.

You can use this target to compute and fill in the checksum in
a packet that lacks a checksum.  This is particularly useful,
if you need to work around old applications such as dhcp clients,
that do not work well with checksum offloads, but don't want to
disable checksum offload in your device.

The problem happens in the field with virtualized applications.
For reference, see Red Hat bz 605555, as well as
http://www.spinics.net/lists/kvm/msg37660.html

Typical expected use (helps old dhclient binary running in a VM):
iptables -A POSTROUTING -t mangle -p udp --dport bootpc \
	-j CHECKSUM --checksum-fill

0902b469bd netfilter: xtables: idletimer target implementation
This patch implements an idletimer Xtables target that can be used to
identify when interfaces have been idle for a certain period of time.

Timers are identified by labels and are created when a rule is set with a new
label.  The rules also take a timeout value (in seconds) as an option.  If
more than one rule uses the same timer label, the timer will be restarted
whenever any of the rules get a hit.

One entry for each timer is created in sysfs.  This attribute contains the
timer remaining for the timer to expire.  The attributes are located under
the xt_idletimer class:

/sys/class/xt_idletimer/timers/<label>

When the timer expires, the target module sends a sysfs notification to the
userspace, which can then decide what to do (eg. disconnect to save power).

11eeef41d5 netfilter: passive OS fingerprint xtables match
Passive OS fingerprinting netfilter module allows to passively detect
remote OS and perform various netfilter actions based on that knowledge.
This module compares some data (WS, MSS, options and it's order, ttl, df
and others) from packets with SYN bit set with dynamically loaded OS
fingerprints.

Fingerprint matching rules can be downloaded from OpenBSD source tree
or found in archive and loaded via netfilter netlink subsystem into
the kernel via special util found in archive.

Archive contains library file (also attached), which was shipped
with iptables extensions some time ago (at least when ipt_osf existed
in patch-o-matic).

Following changes were made in this release:
 * added NLM_F_CREATE/NLM_F_EXCL checks
 * dropped _rcu list traversing helpers in the protected add/remove calls
 * dropped unneded structures, debug prints, obscure comment and check

Fingerprints can be downloaded from
http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/cvsweb/src/etc/pf.os
or can be found in archive

Example usage:
-d switch removes fingerprints

Please consider for inclusion.
Thank you.

0269ea4937 netfilter: xtables: add cluster match
This patch adds the iptables cluster match. This match can be used
to deploy gateway and back-end load-sharing clusters. The cluster
can be composed of 32 nodes maximum (although I have only tested
this with two nodes, so I cannot tell what is the real scalability
limit of this solution in terms of cluster nodes).

Assuming that all the nodes see all packets (see below for an
example on how to do that if your switch does not allow this), the
cluster match decides if this node has to handle a packet given:

	(jhash(source IP) % total_nodes) & node_mask

For related connections, the master conntrack is used. The following
is an example of its use to deploy a gateway cluster composed of two
nodes (where this is the node 1):

iptables -I PREROUTING -t mangle -i eth1 -m cluster \
	--cluster-total-nodes 2 --cluster-local-node 1 \
	--cluster-proc-name eth1 -j MARK --set-mark 0xffff
iptables -A PREROUTING -t mangle -i eth1 \
	-m mark ! --mark 0xffff -j DROP
iptables -A PREROUTING -t mangle -i eth2 -m cluster \
	--cluster-total-nodes 2 --cluster-local-node 1 \
	--cluster-proc-name eth2 -j MARK --set-mark 0xffff
iptables -A PREROUTING -t mangle -i eth2 \
	-m mark ! --mark 0xffff -j DROP

And the following commands to make all nodes see the same packets:

ip maddr add 01:00:5e:00:01:01 dev eth1
ip maddr add 01:00:5e:00:01:02 dev eth2
arptables -I OUTPUT -o eth1 --h-length 6 \
	-j mangle --mangle-mac-s 01:00:5e:00:01:01
arptables -I INPUT -i eth1 --h-length 6 \
	--destination-mac 01:00:5e:00:01:01 \
	-j mangle --mangle-mac-d 00:zz:yy:xx:5a:27
arptables -I OUTPUT -o eth2 --h-length 6 \
	-j mangle --mangle-mac-s 01:00:5e:00:01:02
arptables -I INPUT -i eth2 --h-length 6 \
	--destination-mac 01:00:5e:00:01:02 \
	-j mangle --mangle-mac-d 00:zz:yy:xx:5a:27

In the case of TCP connections, pickup facility has to be disabled
to avoid marking TCP ACK packets coming in the reply direction as
valid.

echo 0 > /proc/sys/net/netfilter/nf_conntrack_tcp_loose

BTW, some final notes:

 * This match mangles the skbuff pkt_type in case that it detects
PACKET_MULTICAST for a non-multicast address. This may be done in
a PKTTYPE target for this sole purpose.
 * This match supersedes the CLUSTERIP target.

584015727a netfilter: accounting rework: ct_extend + 64bit counters (v4)
Initially netfilter has had 64bit counters for conntrack-based accounting, but
it was changed in 2.6.14 to save memory. Unfortunately in-kernel 64bit counters are
still required, for example for "connbytes" extension. However, 64bit counters
waste a lot of memory and it was not possible to enable/disable it runtime.

This patch:
 - reimplements accounting with respect to the extension infrastructure,
 - makes one global version of seq_print_acct() instead of two seq_print_counters(),
 - makes it possible to enable it at boot time (for CONFIG_SYSCTL/CONFIG_SYSFS=n),
 - makes it possible to enable/disable it at runtime by sysctl or sysfs,
 - extends counters from 32bit to 64bit,
 - renames ip_conntrack_counter -> nf_conn_counter,
 - enables accounting code unconditionally (no longer depends on CONFIG_NF_CT_ACCT),
 - set initial accounting enable state based on CONFIG_NF_CT_ACCT
 - removes buggy IPCT_COUNTER_FILLING event handling.

If accounting is enabled newly created connections get additional acct extend.
Old connections are not changed as it is not possible to add a ct_extend area
to confirmed conntrack. Accounting is performed for all connections with

b11c16beb9 netfilter: Get rid of refrences to no longer existant Fast NAT.
Get rid of refrences to no longer existant Fast NAT.

IP_ROUTE_NAT support was removed in August of 2004, but references to Fast
NAT were left in a couple of config options.

f3261aff35 netfilter: Kconfig: default DCCP/SCTP conntrack support to the protocol config values
When conntrack and DCCP/SCTP protocols are enabled, chances are good
that people also want DCCP/SCTP conntrack and NAT support.

8ce22fcab4 [NETFILTER]: Remove some EXPERIMENTAL dependencies
Most of the netfilter modules are not considered experimental anymore,
the only ones I want to keep marked as EXPERIMENTAL are:

- TCPOPTSTRIP target, which is brand new.

- SANE helper, which is quite new.

- CLUSTERIP target, which I believe hasn't had much testing despite
  being in the kernel for quite a long time.

- SCTP match and conntrack protocol, which are a mess and need to
  be reviewed and cleaned up before I would trust them.

33b8e77605 [NETFILTER]: Add CONFIG_NETFILTER_ADVANCED option
The NETFILTER_ADVANCED option hides lots of the rather obscure netfilter
options when disabled and provides defaults (M) that should allow to
run a distribution firewall without further thinking.

Defaults to 'y' to avoid breaking current configurations.

ab4f58c77a [NETFILTER]: remove NF_CONNTRACK_ENABLED option
Remove the NF_CONNTRACK_ENABLED option. It was meant for a smoother upgrade
to nf_conntrack, people having reconfigured their kernel at least once since
ip_conntrack was removed will have the NF_CONNTRACK option already set.
People upgrading from older kernels have to reconfigure a lot anyway.
