This patch adds the user-space helper infrastructure. It also
contains the implementation of the FTP helper in user-space.
There's one example file that you can use to configure conntrackd
as user-space connection tracking helper under:
doc/helper/conntrackd.conf

I'll need for the upcoming cthelper infrastructure. Moreover, we avoid
more fragmentation in the netfilter user-space utilities. And the plan
is that `nfct' will replace `conntrack' at some point.

This patch adds the clause `DisableInternalCache' that allows you
to bypass the internal cache. This clause can only be used with
the notrack synchronization mode.

This patch adds support for TCP as protocol to replicate
state-changes between two daemons. Note that this only
makes sense with the notrack mode.

This patch reduces the number of gettimeofday syscalls by caching
the current time in a variable at the beginning of the main loop.
Based on a suggestion from Vincent Jardin.

This patch adds the clause `DisableExternalCache' that allows you
to disable the external cache and to directly inject the entries
into the kernel conntrack table. As a result, the CPU consumption
of conntrackd increases. This clause can only be used with the
FT-FW and the notrack synchronization modes, but not with the
alarm mode.

Since Linux kernel 2.6.29, ctnetlink reports the changes that have
been done using ctnetlink. With this patch, conntrackd can recognize
who is the origin of the event messages. For example, this is
interesting to avoid a messy implicit bulk send during the commit
of entries.

This patch adds a simple infrastructure that allows to account
the child processes that have been forked. This also includes
a callback handler that can be registered that is called once
the child process finishes.
We can extended this later to include an alarm to limit the
maximum lifetime of a forked child process. This is good to
ensure that child processes behave timely.

This patch adds support for unicast UDP to the channel
infrastructure. With this patch, you can select UDP unicast to
propagate state-changes instead of multicast.

This patch reworks conntrackd to make it independent of the protocol
used to propagate state-changes. This patch adds the channel layer
abstraction, this layer allows you to add support for different
protocols like unicast UDP or TIPC.

Currently, the caching system is implemented in a two layer
architecture: hashtable (inner layer) and cache (upper layer).
This patch reworks the hash-cache infrastructure to solve some
initial design problems to make it more flexible, the main strong
points of this patch are:
* Memory handling is done in the cache layer, not in the inner
hashtable layer. This removes one of the main dependencies between
the hashtable and the cache classes.
* Remove excessive encapsulation: the former cache used to hide a
lot of details of the inner hashtable implementation.
* Fix over-hashing of some operations: lookup-delete-add required
three hash calculations. Similarly, the update-or-add operation
required two hash calculations. Now, we calculate the hash once
and re-use the value how many times as we need.
This patch simplifies the caching system. As a result, we save ~130
lines of code. Small code means and less complexity means less
chance to have bugs.

This patch adds CIDR-based filtering support. The current
implementation is O(n).
This patch also introduces the vector data type which is
used to store the IP address and the network mask.

This patch reworks the user-space filtering. Although we have
kernel-space filtering since Linux kernel >= 2.6.26, we keep userspace
filtering to ensure backward compatibility. Moreover, this patch
prepares the implementation of the kernel-space filtering via
libnetfilter_conntrack's high-level berkeley socket filter API.

Simplify logging infrastructure
|
|
|
|
(Based on comments from Max Kellerman)
|
|

- add len field to nethdr
- implement buffered send/recv to batch messages
- stop using netlink format for network messages: use similar TLV-based format
- reduce synchronization messages size up to 60%
- introduce periodic alive messages for sync-nack protocol
- timeslice alarm implementation: remove alarm pthread, remove locking
- simplify debugging functions: use nfct_snprintf instead
- remove major use of libnfnetlink functions: use libnetfilter_conntrack API
- deprecate conntrackd -F, use conntrack -F instead
- major rework of the network infrastructure: much simple, less messy
|
|
- show 'conntrack-tools' string when 'conntrack -V' is issued
- include missing headers to include/Makefile.am
|
|
chain
|
|
|
|
- don't check for kernel header files, since we don't include any.
|
|
- move them into 'pkglibdir'

o Deleted libctnetlink.h and libnfnetlink.h from the include/ dir.
o Added support for version (-V) and help (-h)
o Added event mask based support
o Added GPLv2 headers
o Use fprintf instead of printf
o Defined print_tuple and print_proto output interfaces
o ctnl_[get|del]_conntrack handles return value from kernel via msgerr
o Added support for conntrack table flushing
o Added test case file (test.sh)
o Improve dump output
o Autoconf stuff for conntrack + some pablo's modifications.
o Fixed packet counters formatting (use %llu instead of %lu)
