.Sh NAME

.Nm ng_bpf
|
|
.Nd Berkeley packet filter netgraph node type
|
|
.Sh SYNOPSIS
|
|
.Fd #include <net/bpf.h>
|
|
.Fd #include <netgraph/ng_bpf.h>
|
|
.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
|
The
|
|
.Nm bpf
|
|
node type allows Berkeley Packet Filter (see
|
|
.Xr bpf 4 )
|
|
filters to be applied to data travelling through a Netgraph network.
|
|
Each node allows an arbitrary number of connections to arbitrarily
|
|
named hooks. With each hook is associated a
|
|
.Xf bpf 4
|
|
filter program which is applied to incoming data only, a destination hook
|
|
for matching packets, a destination hook for non-matching packets,
|
|
and various statistics counters.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
A
|
|
.Xr bpf 4
|
|
program returns an unsigned integer, which is normally interpreted as
|
|
the length of the prefix of the packet to return. In the context of this
|
|
node type, returning zero is considered a non-match, in which case the
|
|
entire packet is delivered out the non-match destination hook.
|
|
Returning a value greater than zero causes the packet to be truncated
|
|
to that length and delivered out the match destination hook.
|
|
Either or both destination hooks may be the empty string, or may
|
|
not exist, in which case the packet is dropped.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
New hooks are initially configured to drop all packets.
|
|
A new filter may be installed using the
|
|
.Dv NGM_BPF_SET_FILTER
|
|
control message.
|
|
.Sh HOOKS
|
|
This node type supports any number of hooks having arbitrary names.
|
|
.Sh CONTROL MESSAGES
|
|
This node type supports the generic control messages, plus the following:
|
|
.Bl -tag -width foo
|
|
.It Dv NGM_BPF_SET_FILTER
|
|
This command sets the filter program that will be applied to incoming
|
|
data on a hook. The following structure must be supplied as an argument:
|
|
.Bd -literal -offset 4n
|
|
struct ngm_bpf_hookprog {
|
|
char thisHook[NG_HOOKLEN+1]; /* name of hook */
|
|
char ifMatch[NG_HOOKLEN+1]; /* match dest hook */
|
|
char ifNotMatch[NG_HOOKLEN+1]; /* !match dest hook */
|
|
int32_t bpf_prog_len; /* #isns in program */
|
|
struct bpf_insn bpf_prog[0]; /* bpf program */
|
|
};
|
|
.Ed
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The hook to be updated is specified in
|
|
.Dv thisHook .
|
|
The BPF program is the sequence of instructions in the
|
|
.Dv bpf_prog
|
|
array; there must be
|
|
.Dv bpf_prog_len
|
|
of them.
|
|
Matching and non-matching incoming packets are delivered out the hooks named
|
|
.Dv ifMatch
|
|
and
|
|
.Dv ifNotMatch ,
|
|
respectively. The program must be a valid
|
|
.Xr bpf 4
|
|
program or else
|
|
.Er EINVAL
|
|
is returned.
|
|
.It Dv NGM_BPF_GET_FILTER
|
|
This command takes an
|
|
.Tn ASCII
|
|
string argument, the hook name, and returns the
|
|
corresponding
|
|
.Dv "struct ngm_bpf_hookprog"
|
|
as shown above.
|
|
.It Dv NGM_BPF_GET_STATS
|
|
This command takes an
|
|
.Tn ASCII
|
|
string argument, the hook name, and returns the
|
|
statistics associated with the hook as a
|
|
.Dv "struct ng_bpf_hookstat" .
|
|
.It Dv NGM_BPF_CLR_STATS
|
|
This command takes an
|
|
.Tn ASCII
|
|
string argument, the hook name, and clears the
|
|
statistics associated with the hook.
|
|
.It Dv NGM_BPF_GETCLR_STATS
|
|
This command is identical to
|
|
.Dv NGM_BPF_GET_STATS ,
|
|
except that the statistics are also atomically cleared.
|
|
.El
|
|
.Sh SHUTDOWN
|
|
This node shuts down upon receipt of a
|
|
.Dv NGM_SHUTDOWN
|
|
control message, or when all hooks have been disconnected.
|
|
.Sh BUGS
|
|
When built as a loadable kernel module, this module includes the file
|
|
.Pa net/bpf_filter.c .
|
|
Although loading the module should fail if
|
|
.Pa net/bpf_filter.c
|
|
already exists in the kernel, currently it does not, and the duplicate
|
|
copies of the file do not interfere.
|
|
However, this may change in the future.
|
|
.Sh HISTORY

.Nm
|
|
node type was implemented in
