Pablo Neira Ayuso 8691a9a338 netfilter: nft_compat: fix error path in nft_parse_compat()
The patch 0ca743a55991: "netfilter: nf_tables: add compatibility
layer for x_tables", leads to the following Smatch

 warning: "net/netfilter/nft_compat.c:140 nft_parse_compat()
          warn: signedness bug returning '(-34)'"

This nft_parse_compat function returns error codes but the return
type is u8 so the error codes are transformed into small positive
values. The callers don't check the return.

Dan Carpenter c359c4157c netfilter: nft_compat: use _safe version of list_for_each
We need to use the _safe version of list_for_each_entry() here otherwise
we have a use after free bug.

Pablo Neira Ayuso 0ca743a559 netfilter: nf_tables: add compatibility layer for x_tables
This patch adds the x_tables compatibility layer. This allows you
to use existing x_tables matches and targets from nf_tables.

This compatibility later allows us to use existing matches/targets
for features that are still missing in nf_tables. We can progressively
replace them with native nf_tables extensions. It also provides the
userspace compatibility software that allows you to express the
rule-set using the iptables syntax but using the nf_tables kernel
components.

In order to get this compatibility layer working, I've done the
following things:

* add NFNL_SUBSYS_NFT_COMPAT: this new nfnetlink subsystem is used
to query the x_tables match/target revision, so we don't need to
use the native x_table getsockopt interface.

* emulate xt structures: this required extending the struct nft_pktinfo
to include the fragment offset, which is already obtained from
ip[6]_tables and that is used by some matches/targets.

* add support for default policy to base chains, required to emulate
  x_tables.

* add NFTA_CHAIN_USE attribute to obtain the number of references to
  chains, required by x_tables emulation.

* add chain packet/byte counters using per-cpu.

* support 32-64 bits compat.

For historical reasons, this patch includes the following patches
that were posted in the netfilter-devel mailing list.

From Pablo Neira Ayuso:
* nf_tables: add default policy to base chains
* netfilter: nf_tables: add NFTA_CHAIN_USE attribute
* nf_tables: nft_compat: private data of target and matches in contiguous area
* nf_tables: validate hooks for compat match/target
* nf_tables: nft_compat: release cached matches/targets
* nf_tables: x_tables support as a compile time option
* nf_tables: fix alias for xtables over nftables module
* nf_tables: add packet and byte counters per chain
* nf_tables: fix per-chain counter stats if no counters are passed
* nf_tables: don't bump chain stats
* nf_tables: add protocol and flags for xtables over nf_tables
* nf_tables: add ip[6]t_entry emulation
* nf_tables: move specific layer 3 compat code to nf_tables_ipv[4|6]
* nf_tables: support 32bits-64bits x_tables compat
* nf_tables: fix compilation if CONFIG_COMPAT is disabled

From Patrick McHardy:
* nf_tables: move policy to struct nft_base_chain
* nf_tables: send notifications for base chain policy changes

From Alexander Primak:
* nf_tables: remove the duplicate NF_INET_LOCAL_OUT

From Nicolas Dichtel:
* nf_tables: fix compilation when nf-netlink is a module
