bridge: Do not send empty IFLA_AF_SPEC attribute

2022-07-26T13:35:53+00:00

After commit b6c02ef54913 ("bridge: Netlink interface fix."), br_fill_ifinfo() started to send an empty IFLA_AF_SPEC attribute when a bridge vlan dump is requested but an interface does not have any vlans configured. iproute2 ignores such an empty attribute since commit b262a9becbcb ("bridge: Fix output with empty vlan lists") but older iproute2 versions as well as other utilities have their output changed by the cited kernel commit, resulting in failed test cases. Regardless, emitting an empty attribute is pointless and inefficient. Avoid this change by canceling the attribute if no AF_SPEC data was added. Fixes: b6c02ef54913 ("bridge: Netlink interface fix.")

netfilter: nf_tables: add and use BE register load-store helpers

2022-07-11T14:40:46+00:00

Same as the existing ones, no conversions. This is just for sparse sake only so that we no longer mix be16/u16 and be32/u32 types. Alternative is to add __force __beX in various places, but this seems nicer. objdiff shows no changes. Signed-off-by: Florian Westphal Signed-off-by: Pablo Neira Ayuso

netfilter: br_netfilter: do not skip all hooks with 0 priority

2022-06-27T17:23:27+00:00

When br_netfilter module is loaded, skbs may be diverted to the ipv4/ipv6 hooks, just like as if we were routing. Unfortunately, bridge filter hooks with priority 0 may be skipped in this case. Example: 1. an nftables bridge ruleset is loaded, with a prerouting hook that has priority 0. 2. interface is added to the bridge. 3. no tcp packet is ever seen by the bridge prerouting hook. 4. flush the ruleset 5. load the bridge ruleset again. 6. tcp packets are processed as expected. After 1) the only registered hook is the bridge prerouting hook, but its not called yet because the bridge hasn't been brought up yet. After 2), hook order is: 0 br_nf_pre_routing // br_netfilter internal hook 0 chain bridge f prerouting // nftables bridge ruleset The packet is diverted to br_nf_pre_routing. If call-iptables is off, the nftables bridge ruleset is called as expected. But if its enabled, br_nf_hook_thresh() will skip it because it assumes that all 0-priority hooks had been called previously in bridge context. To avoid this, check for the br_nf_pre_routing hook itself, we need to resume directly after it, even if this hook has a priority of 0. Unfortunately, this still results in different packet flow. With this fix, the eval order after in 3) is: 1. br_nf_pre_routing 2. ip(6)tables (if enabled) 3. nftables bridge but after 5 its the much saner: 1. nftables bridge 2. br_nf_pre_routing 3. ip(6)tables (if enabled) Unfortunately I don't see a solution here: It would be possible to move br_nf_pre_routing to a higher priority so that it will be called later in the pipeline, but this also impacts ebtables evaluation order, and would still result in this very ordering problem for all nftables-bridge hooks with the same priority as the br_nf_pre_routing one. Searching back through the git history I don't think this has ever behaved in any other way, hence, no fixes-tag.

net: rename reference+tracking helpers

2022-06-10T04:52:55+00:00

Netdev reference helpers have a dev_ prefix for historic reasons. Renaming the old helpers would be too much churn but we can rename the tracking ones which are relatively recent and should be the default for new code. Rename: dev_hold_track() -> netdev_hold() dev_put_track() -> netdev_put() dev_replace_track() -> netdev_ref_replace() Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20220608043955.919359-1-kuba@kernel.org Signed-off-by: Jakub Kicinski

net: bridge: Clear offload_fwd_mark when passing frame up bridge interface.

2022-05-19T07:20:44+00:00

It is possible to stack bridges on top of each other. Consider the following which makes use of an Ethernet switch: br1 / \ / \ / \ br0.11 wlan0 | br0 / | \ p1 p2 p3 br0 is offloaded to the switch. Above br0 is a vlan interface, for vlan 11. This vlan interface is then a slave of br1. br1 also has a wireless interface as a slave. This setup trunks wireless lan traffic over the copper network inside a VLAN. A frame received on p1 which is passed up to the bridge has the skb->offload_fwd_mark flag set to true, indicating that the switch has dealt with forwarding the frame out ports p2 and p3 as needed. This flag instructs the software bridge it does not need to pass the frame back down again. However, the flag is not getting reset when the frame is passed upwards. As a result br1 sees the flag, wrongly interprets it, and fails to forward the frame to wlan0. When passing a frame upwards, clear the flag. This is the Rx equivalent of br_switchdev_frame_unmark() in br_dev_xmit().
