netfilter: ctnetlink: add kernel side filtering for dump
Conntrack dump does not support kernel side filtering (only get exists,
but it returns only one entry. And user has to give a full valid tuple)
It means that userspace has to implement filtering after receiving many
irrelevant entries, consuming resources (conntrack table is sometimes
very huge, much more than a routing table for example).
This patch adds filtering in kernel side. To achieve this goal, we:
* Add a new CTA_FILTER netlink attributes, actually a flag list to
parametize filtering
* Convert some *nlattr_to_tuple() functions, to allow a partial parsing
of CTA_TUPLE_ORIG and CTA_TUPLE_REPLY (so nf_conntrack_tuple it not
fully set)
Filtering is now possible on:
* IP SRC/DST values
* Ports for TCP and UDP flows
* IMCP(v6) codes types and IDs
Filtering is done as an "AND" operator. For example, when flags
PROTO_SRC_PORT, PROTO_NUM and IP_SRC are sets, only entries matching all
values are dumped.
Changes since v1:
Set NLM_F_DUMP_FILTERED in nlm flags if entries are filtered
Changes since v2:
Move several constants to nf_internals.h
Move a fix on netlink values check in a separate patch
Add a check on not-supported flags
Return EOPNOTSUPP if CDA_FILTER is set in ctnetlink_flush_conntrack
(not yet implemented)
Code style issues
Changes since v3:
Fix compilation warning reported by kbuild test robot
Changes since v4:
Fix a regression introduced in v3 (returned EINVAL for valid netlink
messages without CTA_MARK)
Changes since v5:
Change definition of CTA_FILTER_F_ALL
Fix a regression when CTA_TUPLE_ZONE is not set
