netfilter: add nf_ipv6_ops hook to fix xt_addrtype with IPv6

2013-05-23T09:58:55Z

Quoting https://bugzilla.netfilter.org/show_bug.cgi?id=812: [ ip6tables -m addrtype ] When I tried to use in the nat/PREROUTING it messes up the routing cache even if the rule didn't matched at all. [..] If I remove the --limit-iface-in from the non-working scenario, so just use the -m addrtype --dst-type LOCAL it works! This happens when LOCAL type matching is requested with --limit-iface-in, and the default ipv6 route is via the interface the packet we test arrived on. Because xt_addrtype uses ip6_route_output, the ipv6 routing implementation creates an unwanted cached entry, and the packet won't make it to the real/expected destination. Silently ignoring --limit-iface-in makes the routing work but it breaks rule matching (--dst-type LOCAL with limit-iface-in is supposed to only match if the dst address is configured on the incoming interface; without --limit-iface-in it will match if the address is reachable via lo). The test should call ipv6_chk_addr() instead. However, this would add a link-time dependency on ipv6. There are two possible solutions: 1) Revert the commit that moved ipt_addrtype to xt_addrtype, and put ipv6 specific code into ip6t_addrtype. 2) add new "nf_ipv6_ops" struct to register pointers to ipv6 functions. While the former might seem preferable, Pablo pointed out that there are more xt modules with link-time dependeny issues regarding ipv6, so lets go for 2).

ipv6: statically link register_inet6addr_notifier()

ipv4: introduce address lifetime

2013-01-29T18:59:57Z

There are some usecase when lifetime of ipv4 addresses might be helpful. For example: 1) initramfs networkmanager uses a DHCP daemon to learn network configuration parameters 2) initramfs networkmanager addresses, routes and DNS configuration 3) initramfs networkmanager is requested to stop 4) initramfs networkmanager stops all daemons including dhclient 5) there are addresses and routes configured but no daemon running. If the system doesn't start networkmanager for some reason, addresses and routes will be used forever, which violates RFC 2131. This patch is essentially a backport of ivp6 address lifetime mechanism for ipv4 addresses. Current "ip" tool supports this without any patch (since it does not distinguish between ipv4 and ipv6 addresses in this perspective. Also, this should be back-compatible with all current netlink users. Reported-by: Pavel Šimerda Signed-off-by: Jiri Pirko Signed-off-by: David S. Miller
