Support classifying packets with netfilter on egress to satisfy user
requirements such as:
* outbound security policies for containers (Laura)
* filtering and mangling intra-node Direct Server Return (DSR) traffic
on a load balancer (Laura)
* filtering locally generated traffic coming in through AF_PACKET,
such as local ARP traffic generated for clustering purposes or DHCP
(Laura; the AF_PACKET plumbing is contained in a follow-up commit)
* L2 filtering from ingress and egress for AVB (Audio Video Bridging)
and gPTP with nftables (Pablo)
* in the future: in-kernel NAT64/NAT46 (Pablo)
The egress hook introduced herein complements the ingress hook added by
commit e687ad60af09 ("netfilter: add netfilter ingress hook after
handle_ing() under unique static key"). A patch for nftables to hook up
egress rules from user space has been submitted separately, so users may
immediately take advantage of the feature.
Alternatively or in addition to netfilter, packets can be classified
with traffic control (tc). On ingress, packets are classified first by
tc, then by netfilter. On egress, the order is reversed for symmetry.
Conceptually, tc and netfilter can be thought of as layers, with
netfilter layered above tc.
Traffic control is capable of redirecting packets to another interface
(man 8 tc-mirred). E.g., an ingress packet may be redirected from the
host namespace to a container via a veth connection:
tc ingress (host) -> tc egress (veth host) -> tc ingress (veth container)
In this case, netfilter egress classifying is not performed when leaving
the host namespace! That's because the packet is still on the tc layer.
If tc redirects the packet to a physical interface in the host namespace
such that it leaves the system, the packet is never subjected to
netfilter egress classifying. That is only logical since it hasn't
passed through netfilter ingress classifying either.
Packets can alternatively be redirected at the netfilter layer using
nft fwd. Such a packet *is* subjected to netfilter egress classifying
since it has reached the netfilter layer.
Internally, the skb->nf_skip_egress flag controls whether netfilter is
invoked on egress by __dev_queue_xmit(). Because __dev_queue_xmit() may
be called recursively by tunnel drivers such as vxlan, the flag is
reverted to false after sch_handle_egress(). This ensures that
netfilter is applied both on the overlay and underlying network.
Interaction between tc and netfilter is possible by setting and querying
skb->mark.
If netfilter egress classifying is not enabled on any interface, it is
patched out of the data path by way of a static_key and doesn't make a
performance difference that is discernible from noise:
Before: 1537 1538 1538 1537 1538 1537 Mb/sec
After: 1536 1534 1539 1539 1539 1540 Mb/sec
Before + tc accept: 1418 1418 1418 1419 1419 1418 Mb/sec
After + tc accept: 1419 1424 1418 1419 1422 1420 Mb/sec
Before + tc drop: 1620 1619 1619 1619 1620 1620 Mb/sec
After + tc drop: 1616 1624 1625 1624 1622 1619 Mb/sec
When netfilter egress classifying is enabled on at least one interface,
a minimal performance penalty is incurred for every egress packet, even
if the interface it's transmitted over doesn't have any netfilter egress
rules configured. That is caused by checking dev->nf_hooks_egress
against NULL.
Measurements were performed on a Core i7-3615QM. Commands to reproduce:
ip link add dev foo type dummy
ip link set dev foo up
modprobe pktgen
echo "add_device foo" > /proc/net/pktgen/kpktgend_3
samples/pktgen/pktgen_bench_xmit_mode_queue_xmit.sh -i foo -n 400000000 -m "11:11:11:11:11:11" -d 1.1.1.1
Accept all traffic with tc:
tc qdisc add dev foo clsact
tc filter add dev foo egress bpf da bytecode '1,6 0 0 0,'
Drop all traffic with tc:
tc qdisc add dev foo clsact
tc filter add dev foo egress bpf da bytecode '1,6 0 0 2,'
Apply this patch when measuring packet drops to avoid errors in dmesg:

This patch adds the NF_INET_INGRESS pseudohook for the NFPROTO_INET
family. This is a mapping this new hook to the existing NFPROTO_NETDEV
and NF_NETDEV_INGRESS hook. The hook does not guarantee that packets are
inet only, users must filter out non-ip traffic explicitly.
This infrastructure makes it easier to support this new hook in nf_tables.

license
Many user space API headers are missing licensing information, which
makes it hard for compliance tools to determine the correct license.
By default are files without license information under the default
license of the kernel, which is GPLV2. Marking them GPLV2 would exclude
them from being included in non GPLV2 code, which is obviously not
intended. The user space API headers fall under the syscall exception
which is in the kernels COPYING file:
NOTE! This copyright does *not* cover user programs that use kernel
services by normal system calls - this is merely considered normal use
of the kernel, and does *not* fall under the heading of "derived work".
otherwise syscall usage would not be possible.
Update the files which contain no license information with an SPDX
license identifier. The chosen identifier is 'GPL-2.0 WITH
Linux-syscall-note' which is the officially assigned identifier for the
Linux syscall exception. SPDX license identifiers are a legally binding
shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text.
This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart and
Philippe Ombredanne. See the previous patch in this series for the
methodology of how this patch was researched.

NF_STOP is only used by br_netfilter these days, and it can be emulated
with a combination of NF_STOLEN plus explicit call to the ->okfn()
function as Florian suggests.
To retain binary compatibility with userspace nf_queue application, we
have to keep NF_STOP around, so libnetfilter_queue userspace userspace
applications still work if they use NF_STOP for some exotic reason.
Out of tree modules using NF_STOP would break, but we don't care about
those.

This pulls the full hook netfilter definitions from all those that include
net_namespace.h.
Instead let's just include the bare minimum required in the new
linux/netfilter_defs.h file, and use it from the netfilter netns header files.
I also needed to include in.h and in6.h from linux/netfilter.h otherwise we hit
this compilation error:
In file included from include/linux/netfilter_defs.h:4:0,
from include/net/netns/netfilter.h:4,

from net/netfilter/nfnetlink_queue_core.c:23:

And also explicit include linux/netfilter.h in several spots.

This patch adds the Netfilter ingress hook just after the existing tc ingress
hook, that seems to be the consensus solution for this.
Note that the Netfilter hook resides under the global static key that enables
ingress filtering. Nonetheless, Netfilter still also has its own static key for
minimal impact on the existing handle_ing().

Note that the results are very similar before and after.
I can see gcc gets the code under the ingress static key out of the hot path.
Then, on that cold branch, it generates the code to accomodate the netfilter
ingress static key. My explanation for this is that this reduces the pressure
on the instruction cache for non-users as the new code is out of the hot path,
and it comes with minimal impact for tc ingress users.

This patch adds a new table family and a new filter chain that you can
use to attach IPv4 and IPv6 rules. This should help to simplify
