  • Credit calculations for the packet ratelimiting are not correct, as per
    the applied ratelimit of 25/second and burst 8, a total of 33 packets
    should have been accepted. This is true in iptables(33) but not in
    nftables (~65). For packet ratelimiting, use:

    div_u64(limit->nsecs, limit->rate) * limit->burst;

    to calculate credit, just like in iptables' xt_limit does.

    Moreover, use default burst in iptables, users are expecting similar
    behaviour.

  • Current implementation treats the burst configuration the same as
    rate configuration. This can cause the per packet cost to be lower
    than configured. In effect, this bug causes the token bucket to be
    refilled at a higher rate than what user has specified.

    This patch changes the implementation so that the token bucket size
    is controlled by "rate + burst", while maintain the token bucket
    refill rate the same as user specified.

  • After I input the following nftables rule, a panic happened on my system:

    This is because divisor is 64-bit, but we treat it as a 32-bit integer,
    then 0xf00000000 becomes zero, i.e. divisor becomes 0.

  • Add a flag to mark stateful expressions.

    This is used for dynamic expression instanstiation to limit the usable
    expressions. Strictly speaking only the dynset expression can not be
    used in order to avoid recursion, but since dynamically instantiating
    non-stateful expressions will simply create an identical copy, which
    behaves no differently than the original, this limits to expressions
    where it actually makes sense to dynamically instantiate them.

  • Replace the array of registers passed to expressions by a struct nft_regs,
    containing the verdict as a seperate member, which aliases to the
    NFT_REG_VERDICT register.

    This is needed to seperate the verdict from the data registers completely,
    so their size can be changed.

  • Split the expression ops into two parts and support overloading of
    the runtime expression ops based on the requested function through
    a ->select_ops() callback.

    This can be used to provide optimized implementations, for instance
    for loading small aligned amounts of data from the packet or inlining
    frequently used operations into the main evaluation loop.

  • This patch adds nftables which is the intended successor of iptables.
    This packet filtering framework reuses the existing netfilter hooks,
    the connection tracking system, the NAT subsystem, the transparent
    proxying engine, the logging infrastructure and the userspace packet
    queueing facilities.

    In a nutshell, nftables provides a pseudo-state machine with 4 general
    purpose registers of 128 bits and 1 specific purpose register to store
    verdicts. This pseudo-machine comes with an extensible instruction set,
    a.k.a. "expressions" in the nftables jargon. The expressions included
    in this patch provide the basic functionality, they are:

    * bitwise: to perform bitwise operations.
    * byteorder: to change from host/network endianess.
    * cmp: to compare data with the content of the registers.
    * counter: to enable counters on rules.
    * ct: to store conntrack keys into register.
    * exthdr: to match IPv6 extension headers.
    * immediate: to load data into registers.
    * limit: to limit matching based on packet rate.
    * log: to log packets.
    * meta: to match metainformation that usually comes with the skbuff.
    * nat: to perform Network Address Translation.
    * payload: to fetch data from the packet payload and store it into
    registers.
    * reject (IPv4 only): to explicitly close connection, eg. TCP RST.

    Using this instruction-set, the userspace utility 'nft' can transform
    the rules expressed in human-readable text representation (using a
    new syntax, inspired by tcpdump) to nftables bytecode.

    nftables also inherits the table, chain and rule objects from
    iptables, but in a more configurable way, and it also includes the
    original datatype-agnostic set infrastructure with mapping support.
    This set infrastructure is enhanced in the follow up patch (netfilter:
    nf_tables: add netlink set API).

    This patch includes the following components:

    * the netlink API: net/netfilter/nf_tables_api.c and
    include/uapi/netfilter/nf_tables.h
    * the packet filter core: net/netfilter/nf_tables_core.c
    * the expressions (described above): net/netfilter/nft_*.c
    * the filter tables: arp, IPv4, IPv6 and bridge:
    net/ipv4/netfilter/nf_tables_ipv4.c
    net/ipv6/netfilter/nf_tables_ipv6.c
    net/ipv4/netfilter/nf_tables_arp.c
    net/bridge/netfilter/nf_tables_bridge.c
    * the NAT table (IPv4 only):
    net/ipv4/netfilter/nf_table_nat_ipv4.c
    * the route table (similar to mangle):
    net/ipv4/netfilter/nf_table_route_ipv4.c
    net/ipv6/netfilter/nf_table_route_ipv6.c
    * internal definitions under:
    include/net/netfilter/nf_tables.h
    include/net/netfilter/nf_tables_core.h
    * It also includes an skeleton expression:
    net/netfilter/nft_expr_template.c
    and the preliminary implementation of the meta target
    net/netfilter/nft_meta_target.c

    It also includes a change in struct nf_hook_ops to add a new
    pointer to store private data to the hook, that is used to store
    the rule list per chain.
