It allows implementing loadable kernel modules with new actions and
without needing to modify kernel headers and ipfw(8). The module
registers its action handler and keyword string, that will be used
as action name. Using generic syntax user can add rules with this
action. Also ipfw(8) can be easily modified to extend basic syntax
for external actions, that become a part base system.
Sample modules will coming soon.

we can't easily predict (in current parsing model)
if the keyword is ipfw(8) reserved keyword or port name.
Checking proto database via getprotobyname() consumes a lot of
CPU and leads to tens of seconds for parsing large ruleset.
Use list of reserved keywords and check them as pre-requisite
before doing getprotobyname().

This is the last major change in given branch.
Kernel changes:
* Use 64-bytes structures to hold multi-value variables.
* Use shared array to hold values from all tables (assume
each table algo is capable of holding 32-byte variables).
* Add some placeholders to support per-table value arrays in future.
* Use simple eventhandler-style API to ease the process of adding new
table items. Currently table addition may required multiple UH drops/
acquires which is quite tricky due to atomic table modificatio/swap
support, shared array resize, etc. Deal with it by calling special
notifier capable of rolling back state before actually performing
swap/resize operations. Original operation then restarts itself after
acquiring UH lock.
* Bump all objhash users default values to at least 64
* Fix custom hashing inside objhash.
Userland changes:
* Add support for dumping shared value array via "vlist" internal cmd.
* Some small print/fill_flags dixes to support u32 values.
* valtype is now bitmask of
<skipto|pipe|fib|nat|dscp|tag|divert|netgraph|limit|ipv4|ipv6>.
New values can hold distinct values for each of this types.
* Provide special "legacy" type which assumes all values are the same.
* More helpers/docs following..
Some examples:
3:41 [1] zfscurr0# ipfw table mimimi create valtype skipto,limit,ipv4,ipv6
3:41 [1] zfscurr0# ipfw table mimimi info
+++ table(mimimi), set(0) +++
kindex: 2, type: addr
references: 0, valtype: skipto,limit,ipv4,ipv6
algorithm: addr:radix
items: 0, size: 296
3:42 [1] zfscurr0# ipfw table mimimi add 10.0.0.5 3000,10,10.0.0.1,2a02:978:2::1
added: 10.0.0.5/32 3000,10,10.0.0.1,2a02:978:2::1
3:42 [1] zfscurr0# ipfw table mimimi list
+++ table(mimimi), set(0) +++
10.0.0.5/32 3000,0,10.0.0.1,2a02:978:2::1
Most of the tablearg-supported opcodes does not accept 0 as valid value:
O_TAG, O_TAGGED, O_PIPE, O_QUEUE, O_DIVERT, O_TEE, O_SKIPTO, O_CALLRET,
O_NETGRAPH, O_NGTEE, O_NAT treats 0 as invalid input.
The rest are O_SETDSCP and O_SETFIB.
'Fix' them by adding high-order bit (0x8000) set for non-tablearg values.
Do translation in kernel for old clients (import_rule0 / export_rule0),
teach current ipfw(8) binary to add/remove given bit.
This change does not affect handling SETDSCP values, but limit
O_SETFIB values to 32767 instead of 65k. Since currently we have either
old (16) or new (2^32) max fibs, this should not be a big deal:
we're definitely OK for former and have to add another opcode to deal
with latter, regardless of tablearg value.
* Implement proper checks for switching between global and set-aware tables
* Split IP_FW_DEL mess into the following opcodes:
* IP_FW_XDEL (del rules matching pattern)
* IP_FW_XMOVE (move rules matching pattern to another set)
* IP_FW_SET_SWAP (swap between 2 sets)
* IP_FW_SET_MOVE (move one set to another one)
* IP_FW_SET_ENABLE (enable/disable sets)
* Add IP_FW_XZERO / IP_FW_XRESETLOG to finish IP_FW3 migration.
* Use unified ipfw_range_tlv as range description for all of the above.
* Check dynamic states IFF there was non-zero number of deleted dyn rules,
* Del relevant dynamic states with singe traversal instead of per-rule one.
Userland changes:
* Switch ipfw(8) to use new opcodes.
Kernel changes:
* Add TEI_FLAGS_DONTADD entry flag to indicate that insert is not possible
* Support given flag in all algorithms
* Add "limit" field to ipfw_xtable_info
* Add actual limiting code into add_table_entry()
Userland changes:
* Add "limit" option as "create" table sub-option. Limit modification
is currently impossible.
* Print human-readable errors in table enry addition/deletion code.
* Add "flow:hash" algorithm
Kernel changes:
* Add O_IP_FLOW_LOOKUP opcode to support "flow" lookups
* Add IPFW_TABLE_FLOW table type
* Add "struct tflow_entry" as strage for 6-tuple flows
* Add "flow:hash" algorithm. Basically it is auto-growing chained hash table.
Additionally, we store mask of fields we need to compare in each instance/
* Increase ipfw_obj_tentry size by adding struct tflow_entry
* Add per-algorithm stat (ifpw_ta_tinfo) to ipfw_xtable_info
* Increase algoname length: 32 -> 64 (algo options passed there as string)
* Assume every table type can be customized by flags, use u8 to store "tflags" field.
* Simplify ipfw_find_table_entry() by providing @tentry directly to algo callback.
* Fix bug in cidr:chash resize procedure.
Userland changes:
* add "flow table(NAME)" syntax to support n-tuple checking tables.
* make fill_flags() separate function to ease working with _s_x arrays
* change "table info" output to reflect longer "type" fields

Kernel changes:
* s/IPFW_TABLE_U32/IPFW_TABLE_NUMBER/
* Force "lookup <port|uid|gid|jid>" to be IPFW_TABLE_NUMBER
* Support "lookup" method for number tables
* Add number:array algorihm (i32 as key, auto-growing).
Userland changes:
* Support named tables in "lookup <tag> Table"
* Fix handling of "table(NAME,val)" case
* Support printing "number" table data.
* Rewrite interface tables to use interface indexes
Kernel changes:
* Add generic interface tracking API:
- ipfw_iface_ref (must call unlocked, performs lazy init if needed, allocates
state & bumps ref)
- ipfw_iface_add_ntfy(UH_WLOCK+WLOCK, links comsumer & runs its callback to
update ifindex)
- ipfw_iface_del_ntfy(UH_WLOCK+WLOCK, unlinks consumer)
- ipfw_iface_unref(unlocked, drops reference)
Additionally, consumer callbacks are called in interface withdrawal/departure.
* Rewrite interface tables to use iface tracking API. Currently tables are
implemented the following way:
runtime data is stored as sorted array of {ifidx, val} for existing interfaces
full data is stored inside namedobj instance (chained hashed table).
* Add IP_FW_XIFLIST opcode to dump status of tracked interfaces
* Pass @chain ptr to most non-locked algorithm callbacks:
(prepare_add, prepare_del, flush_entry ..). This may be needed for better
interaction of given algorithm an other ipfw subsystems
* Add optional "change_ti" algorithm handler to permit updating of
cached table_info pointer (happens in case of table_max resize)
* Fix small bug in ipfw_list_tables()
* Add badd (insert into sorted array) and bdel (remove from sorted array) funcs
Userland changes:
* Add "iflist" cmd to print status of currently tracked interface
* Add stringnum_cmp for better interface/table names sorting
* Switch kernel to use per-cpu counters for rules.
* Keep ABI/API.
Kernel changes:
* Each rules is now exported as TLV with optional extenable
counter block (ip_fW_bcounter for base one) and
ip_fw_rule for rule&cmd data.
* Counters needs to be explicitly requested by IPFW_CFG_GET_COUNTERS flag.
* Separate counters from rules in kernel and clean up ip_fw a bit.
* Pack each rule in IPFW_TLV_RULE_ENT tlv to ease parsing.
* Introduce versioning in container TLV (may be needed in future).
* Fix ipfw_cfg_lheader broken u64 alignment.
Userland changes:
* Use set_mask from cfg header when requesting config
* Fix incorrect read accouting in ipfw_show_config()
* Use IPFW_RULE_NOOPT flag instead of playing with _pad
* Fix "ipfw -d list": do not print counters for dynamic states
* Some small fixes
Kernel changes:
* Change dump format for dynamic states:
each state is now stored inside ipfw_obj_dyntlv
last dynamic state is indicated by IPFW_DF_LAST flag
* Do not perform sooptcopyout() for !SOPT_GET requests.
Userland changes:
* Introduce foreach_state() function handler to ease work
with different states passed by ipfw_dump_config().
Kernel changes:
* Introduce ipfw_obj_tentry table entry structure to force u64 alignment.
* Support "update-on-existing-key" "add" bahavior (TEI_FLAGS_UPDATED).
* Use "subtype" field to distingush between IPv4 and IPv6 table records
instead of previous hack.
* Add value type (vtype) field for kernel tables. Current types are
number,ip and dscp
* Fix sets mask retrieval for old binaries
* Fix crash while using interface tables
Userland changes:
* Switch ipfw_table_handler() to use named-only tables.
* Add "table NAME create [type {cidr|iface|u32} [valtype {number|ip|dscp}] ..."
* Switch ipfw_table_handler to match_token()-based parser.
* Switch ipfw_sets_handler to use new ipfw_get_config() for mask retrieval.
* Allow ipfw set X table ... syntax to permit using per-set table namespaces.
Kernel changes:
* change base TLV header to be u64 (so size can be u32).
* Introduce ipfw_obj_ctlv generc container TLV.
* Add IP_FW_XGET opcode which is now used for atomic configuration
retrieval. One can specify needed configuration pieces to retrieve
via flags field. Currently supported are
IPFW_CFG_GET_STATIC (static rules) and
IPFW_CFG_GET_STATES (dynamic states).
Other configuration pieces (tables, pipes, etc..) support is planned.
Userland changes:
* Switch ipfw(8) to use new IP_FW_XGET for rule listing.
* Split rule listing code get and show pieces.
* Make several steps forward towards libipfw:
permit printing states and rules(paritally) to supplied buffer.
do not die on malloc/kernel failure inside given printing functions.
stop assuming cmdline_opts is global symbol.
Kernel changes:
* Add IP_FW_OBJ_FLUSH opcode (flush table based on its name/set)
* Add IP_FW_OBJ_DUMP opcode (dumps table data based on its names/set)
* Add IP_FW_OBJ_LISTSIZE / IP_FW_OBJ_LIST opcodes (get list of kernel tables)
Userland changes:
* move tables code to separate tables.c file
* get rid of tables_max
* switch "all"/list handling to new opcodes
Kernel-side changelog:
* Split general tables code and algorithm-specific table data.
Current algorithms (IPv4/IPv6 radix and interface tables radix) moved to
new ip_fw_table_algo.c file.
Tables code now supports any algorithm implementing the following callbacks:
+struct table_algo {
+ char name[64];
+ int idx;
+ ta_init *init;
+ ta_destroy *destroy;
+ table_lookup_t *lookup;
+ ta_prepare_add *prepare_add;
+ ta_prepare_del *prepare_del;
+ ta_add *add;
+ ta_del *del;
+ ta_flush_entry *flush_entry;
+ ta_foreach *foreach;
+ ta_dump_entry *dump_entry;
+ ta_dump_xentry *dump_xentry;
+};
* Change ->state, ->xstate, ->tabletype fields of ip_fw_chain to
->tablestate pointer (array of 32 bytes structures necessary for
runtime lookups (can be probably shrinked to 16 bytes later):
+struct table_info {
+ table_lookup_t *lookup; /* Lookup function */
+ void *state; /* Lookup radix/other structure */
+ void *xstate; /* eXtended state */
+ u_long data; /* Hints for given func */
+};
* Add count method for namedobj instance to ease size calculations
* Bump ip_fw3 buffer in ipfw_clt 128->256 bytes.
* Improve bitmask resizing on tables_max change.
* Remove table numbers checking from most places.
* Fix wrong nesting in ipfw_rewrite_table_uidx().
* Add IP_FW_OBJ_LIST opcode (list all objects of given type, currently
implemented for IPFW_OBJTYPE_TABLE).
* Add IP_FW_OBJ_LISTSIZE (get buffer size to hold IP_FW_OBJ_LIST data,
currenly implemented for IPFW_OBJTYPE_TABLE).
* Add IP_FW_OBJ_INFO (requests info for one object of given type).
Some name changes:
s/ipfw_xtable_tlv/ipfw_obj_tlv/ (no table specifics)
s/ipfw_xtable_ntlv/ipfw_obj_ntlv/ (no table specifics)
Userland changes:
* Add do_set3() cmd to ipfw2 to ease dealing with op3-embeded opcodes.
* Add/improve support for destroy/info cmds.
* Add namedobject set-aware api capable of searching/allocation objects by their name/idx.
* Switch tables code to use string ids for configuration tasks.
* Change locking model: most configuration changes are protected with UH lock, runtime-visible are protected with both locks.
* Reduce number of arguments passed to ipfw_table_add/del by using separate structure.
* Add internal V_fw_tables_sets tunable (set to 0) to prepare for set-aware tables (requires opcodes/client support)
* Implement typed table referencing (and tables are implicitly allocated with all state like radix ptrs on reference)
* Add "destroy" ipfw(8) using new IP_FW_DELOBJ opcode
Namedobj more detailed:
* Blackbox api providing methods to add/del/search/enumerate objects
* Statically-sized hashes for names/indexes
* Per-set bitmask to indicate free indexes
* Separate methods for index alloc/delete/resize
Basically, there should not be any user-visible changes except the following:
* reducing table_max is not supported
* flush & add change table type won't work if table is referenced
