06b69390a6 IPVS: Fix variable assignment in ip_vs_notrack
There's no sense to 'ct = ct = ' in ip_vs_notrack(). Just assign
nf_ct_get()'s return value directly to the pointer variable 'ct' once.

adb00ae2ea netfilter: x_tables: misuse of try_then_request_module
Since xt_find_match() returns ERR_PTR(xx) on error not NULL,
the macro try_then_request_module won't work correctly here.
The macro expects its first argument will be zero if condition
fails. But ERR_PTR(-ENOENT) is not zero.

The correct solution is to propagate the error value
back.

Found by inspection, and compile tested only.

8a80c79a77 netfilter: nf_ct_tcp: fix out of sync scenario while in SYN_RECV
This patch fixes the out of sync scenarios while in SYN_RECV state.

Quoting Jozsef, what it happens if we are out of sync if the
following:

> > b. conntrack entry is outdated, new SYN received
> >    - (b1) we ignore it but save the initialization data from it
> >    - (b2) when the reply SYN/ACK receives and it matches the saved data,
> >      we pick up the new connection
This is what it should happen if we are in SYN_RECV state. Initially,
the SYN packet hits b1, thus we save data from it. But the SYN/ACK
packet is considered a retransmission given that we're in SYN_RECV
state. Therefore, we never hit b2 and we don't get in sync. To fix
this, we ignore SYN/ACK if we are in SYN_RECV. If the previous packet
was a SYN, then we enter the ignore case that get us in sync.

This patch helps a lot to conntrackd in stress scenarios (assumming a
client that generates lots of small TCP connections). During the failover,
consider that the new primary has injected one outdated flow in SYN_RECV
state (this is likely to happen if the conntrack event rate is high
because the backup will be a bit delayed from the primary). With the
current code, if the client starts a new fresh connection that matches
the tuple, the SYN packet will be ignored without updating the state
tracking, and the SYN+ACK in reply will blocked as it will not pass
checkings III or IV (since all state tracking in the original direction
is not initialized because of the SYN packet was ignored and the ignore
case that get us in sync is not applied).

I posted a couple of patches before this one. Changli Gao spotted
a simpler way to fix this problem. This patch implements his idea.

41ac51eeda ipvs: make "no destination available" message more informative
When IP_VS schedulers do not find a destination, they output a terse
"WLC: no destination available" message through kernel syslog, which I
can not only make sense of because syslog puts them in a logfile
together with keepalived checker results.

This patch makes the output a bit more informative, by telling you which
virtual service failed to find a destination.

Example output:

kernel: [1539214.552233] IPVS: wlc: TCP 192.168.8.30:22 - no destination available
kernel: [1539299.674418] IPVS: wlc: FWM 22 0x00000016 - no destination available

I have tested the code for IPv4 and FWM services, as you can see from
the example; I do not have an IPv6 setup to test the third code path
with.

To avoid code duplication, I put a new function ip_vs_scheduler_err()
into ip_vs_sched.c, and use that from the schedulers instead of calling
IP_VS_ERR_RL directly.

44bd4de9c2 netfilter: xt_connlimit: connlimit-above early loop termination
The patch below introduces an early termination of the loop that is
counting matches. It terminates once the counter has exceeded the
threshold provided by the user. There's no point in continuing the loop
afterwards and looking at other entries.

It plays together with the following code further below:

return (connections > info->limit) ^ info->inverse;

where connections is the result of the counted connection, which in turn
is the matches variable in the loop. So once

        -> matches = info->limit + 1
alias   -> matches > info->limit
alias   -> matches > threshold

we can terminate the loop.

line number. In order not to modify the original message received from
the userspace, we construct a new, complete netlink error message and

6c02788969 netfilter: ipset: hash:ip set type support
The module implements the hash:ip type support in four flavours:
for IPv4 or IPv6, both without and with timeout support.

All the hash types are based on the "array hash" or ahash structure
and functions as a good compromise between minimal memory footprint
and speed. The hashing uses arrays to resolve clashes. The hash table
is resized (doubled) when searching becomes too long. Resizing can be
triggered by userspace add commands only and those are serialized by
the nfnl mutex. During resizing the set is read-locked, so the only
possible concurrent operations are the kernel side readers. Those are
protected by RCU locking.

Because of the four flavours and the other hash types, the functions
are implemented in general forms in the ip_set_ahash.h header file
and the real functions are generated before compiling by macro expansion.
Thus the dereferencing of low-level functions and void pointer arguments
could be avoided: the low-level functions are inlined, the function
arguments are pointers of type-specific structures.

de76021a1b netfilter: ipset: bitmap:ip,mac type support
The module implements the bitmap:ip,mac set type in two flavours,
without and with timeout support. In this kind of set one can store
IPv4 address and (source) MAC address pairs. The type supports elements
added without the MAC part filled out: when the first matching from kernel
happens, the MAC part is automatically filled out. The timing out of the
elements stars when an element is complete in the IP,MAC pair.

72205fc68b netfilter: ipset: bitmap:ip set type support
The module implements the bitmap:ip set type in two flavours, without
and with timeout support. In this kind of set one can store IPv4
addresses (or network addresses) from a given range.

In order not to waste memory, the timeout version does not rely on
the kernel timer for every element to be timed out but on garbage
collection. All set types use this mechanism.

a7b4f989a6 netfilter: ipset: IP set core support
The patch adds the IP set core support to the kernel.

The IP set core implements a netlink (nfnetlink) based protocol by which
one can create, destroy, flush, rename, swap, list, save, restore sets,
and add, delete, test elements from userspace. For simplicity (and backward
compatibilty and for not to force ip(6)tables to be linked with a netlink
library) reasons a small getsockopt-based protocol is also kept in order
to communicate with the ip(6)tables match and target.

The netlink protocol passes all u16, etc values in network order with
NLA_F_NET_BYTEORDER flag. The protocol enforces the proper use of the
NLA_F_NESTED and NLA_F_NET_BYTEORDER flags.

For other kernel subsystems (netfilter match and target) the API contains
the functions to add, delete and test elements in sets and the required calls
to get/put refereces to the sets before those operations can be performed.

The set types (which are implemented in independent modules) are stored
in a simple RCU protected list. A set type may have variants: for example
without timeout or with timeout support, for IPv4 or for IPv6. The sets
(i.e. the pointers to the sets) are stored in an array. The sets are
identified by their index in the array, which makes possible easy and
fast swapping of sets. The array is protected indirectly by the nfnl
mutex from nfnetlink. The content of the sets are protected by the rwlock
of the set.

There are functional differences between the add/del/test functions
for the kernel and userspace:

- kernel add/del/test: works on the current packet (i.e. one element)
- kernel test: may trigger an "add" operation  in order to fill
  out unspecified parts of the element from the packet (like MAC address)
- userspace add/del: works on the netlink message and thus possibly
  on multiple elements from the IPSET_ATTR_ADT container attribute.
- userspace add: may trigger resizing of a set
