* pasta: Don't try to watch namespaces in procfs with inotify, use timer instead2024_02_19.ff22a78Stefano Brivio2024-02-192-7/+25
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | We watch network namespace entries to detect when we should quit (unless --no-netns-quit is passed), and these might stored in a tmpfs typically mounted at /run/user/UID or /var/run/user/UID, or found in procfs at /proc/PID/ns/. Currently, we try to use inotify for any possible location of those entries, but inotify, of course, doesn't work on pseudo-filesystems (see inotify(7)). The man page reflects this: the description of --no-netns-quit implies that we won't quit anyway if the namespace is not "bound to the filesystem". Well, we won't quit, but, since commit 9e0dbc894813 ("More deterministic detection of whether argument is a PID, PATH or NAME"), we try. And, indeed, this is harmless, as the caveat from that commit message states. Now, it turns out that Buildah, a tool to create container images, sharing its codebase with Podman, passes a procfs entry to pasta, and expects pasta to exit once the network namespace is not needed anymore, that is, once the original container process, also spawned by Buildah, terminates. Get this to work by using the timer fallback mechanism if the namespace name is passed as a path belonging to a pseudo-filesystem. This is expected to be procfs, but I covered sysfs and devpts pseudo-filesystems as well, because nothing actually prevents creating this kind of directory structure and links there. Note that fstatfs(), according to some versions of man pages, was apparently "deprecated" by the LSB. My reasoning for using it is essentially this: https://lore.kernel.org/linux-man/f54kudgblgk643u32tb6at4cd3kkzha6hslahv24szs4raroaz@ogivjbfdaqtb/t/#u ...that is, there was no such thing as an LSB deprecation, and anyway there's no other way to get the filesystem type. Also note that, while it might sound more obvious to detect the filesystem type using fstatfs() on the file descriptor itself (c->pasta_netns_fd), the reported filesystem type for it is nsfs, no matter what path was given to pasta. If we use the parent directory, we'll typically have either tmpfs or procfs reported. If the target namespace is given as a PID, or as a PID-based procfs entry, we don't risk races if this PID is recycled: our handle on /proc/PID/ns will always refer to the original namespace associated with that PID, and we don't re-open this entry from procfs to check it. There's, however, a remaining race possibility if the parent process is not the one associated to the network namespace we operate on: in that case, the parent might pass a procfs entry associated to a PID that was recycled by the time we parse it. This can't happen if the namespace PID matches the one of the parent, because we detach from the controlling terminal after parsing the namespace reference. To avoid this type of race, if desired, we could add the option for the parent to pass a PID file descriptor, that the parent obtained via pidfd_open(). This is beyond the scope of this change. Update the man page to reflect that, even if the target network namespace is passed as a procfs path or a PID, we'll now quit when the procfs entry is gone.

* conf: No routable interface for IPv4 or IPv6 is informational, not a warningStefano Brivio2024-02-161-2/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | ...Podman users might get confused by the fact that if we can't find a default route for a given IP version, we'll report that as a warning message and possibly just before actual error messages. However, a lack of routable interface for IPv4 or IPv6 can be a normal circumstance: don't warn about it, just state that as informational message, if those are displayed (they're not in non-error paths in Podman, for example). While at it, make it clear that we're disabling IPv4 or IPv6 if there's no routable interface for the corresponding IP version.

* pasta: Add fallback timer mechanism to check if namespace is goneStefano Brivio2024-02-164-39/+107
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | We don't know how frequently this happens, but hitting fs.inotify.max_user_watches or similar sysctl limits is definitely not out of question, and Paul mentioned that, for example, Podman's CI environments hit similar issues in the past. Introduce a fallback mechanism based on a timer file descriptor: we grab the directory handle at startup, and we can then use openat(), triggered periodically, to check if the (network) namespace directory still exists. If openat() fails at some point, exit.

* conf, passt.1: Exit if we can't bind a forwarded port, except for -[tu] allStefano Brivio2024-02-162-28/+23
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | ...or similar, that is, if only excluded ranges are given (implying we'll forward any other available port). In that case, we'll usually forward large sets of ports, and it might be inconvenient for the user to skip excluding single ports that are already taken. The existing behaviour, that is, exiting only if we fail to bind all the ports for one given forwarding option, turns out to be problematic for several aspects raised by Paul: - Podman merges ranges anyway, so we might fail to bind all the ports from a specific range given by the user, but we'll not fail anyway because Podman merges it with another one where we succeed to bind at least one port. At the same time, there should be no semantic difference between multiple ranges given by a single option and multiple ranges given as multiple options: it's unexpected and not documented - the user might actually rely on a given port to be forwarded to a given container or a virtual machine, and if connections are forwarded to an unrelated process, this might raise security concerns - given that we can try and fail to bind multiple ports before exiting (in case we can't bind any), we don't have a specific error code we can return to the user, so we don't give the user helpful indication as to why we couldn't bind ports. Exit as soon as we fail to create or bind a socket for a given forwarded port, and report the actual error. Keep the current behaviour, however, in case the user wants to forward all the (available) ports for a given protocol, or all the ports with excluded ranges only. There, it's more reasonable that the user is expecting partial failures, and it's probably convenient that we continue with the ports we could forward. Update the manual page to reflect the new behaviour, and the old behaviour too in the cases where we keep it.

* udp: udp_sock_init_ns() partially duplicats udp_port_rebind_outbound()David Gibson2024-02-141-48/+25
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | Usually automatically forwarded UDP outbound ports are set up by udp_port_rebind_outbound() called from udp_timer(). However, the very first time they're created and bound is by udp_sock_init_ns() called from udp_init(). udp_sock_init_ns() is essentially an unnecessary cut down version of udp_port_rebind_outbound(), so we can jusat remove it.

* udp: Don't prematurely (and incorrectly) set up automatic inbound forwardsDavid Gibson2024-02-141-17/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | For automated inbound port forwarding in pasta mode we scan bound ports within the guest namespace via /proc and bind matching ports on the host to listen for packets. For UDP this is usually handled by udp_timer() which calls port_fwd_scan_udp() followed by udp_port_rebind(). However there's one initial scan before the the UDP timer is started: we call port_fwd_scan_udp() from port_fwd_init(), and actually bind the resulting ports in udp_sock_init_init() called from udp_init(). Unfortunately, the version in udp_sock_init_init() isn't correct. It unconditionally opens a new socket for every forwarded port, even if a socket has already been explicit created with the -u option. If the explicitly forwarded ports have particular configuration (such as a specific bound address address, or one implied by the -o option) those will not be replicated in the new socket. We essentially leak the original correctly configured socket, replacing it with one which might not be right. We could make udp_sock_init_init() use udp_port_rebind() to get that right, but there's actually no point doing so: * The initial bind was introduced by ccf6d2a7b48d ("udp: Actually bind detected namespace ports in init namespace") at which time we didn't periodically scan for bound UDP ports. Periodic scanning was introduced in 457ff122e ("udp,pasta: Periodically scan for ports to automatically forward") making the bind from udp_init() redundant. * At the time of udp_init(), programs in the guest namespace are likely not to have started yet (unless attaching a pre-existing namespace) so there's likely not anything to scan for anyway. So, simply remove the initial, broken socket create/bind, allowing automatic port forwards to be created the first time udp_timer() runs.

* log: setlogmask(0) can actually result in a system call, don't use itStefano Brivio2024-02-142-13/+12
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Before commit 32d07f5e59f2 ("passt, pasta: Completely avoid dynamic memory allocation"), we didn't store the current log mask in a variable, and we fetched it using setlogmask(0) wherever needed. But after that commit, we can use our log_mask copy instead. And we should: with recent glibc versions, setlogmask(0) actually results in a system call, which causes a substantial overhead with high transfer rates: we use setlogmask(0) even to decide we don't want to print debug messages. Now that we rely on log_mask in early stages, before setlogmask() is called, we need to initialise that variable to the special LOG_EMERG mask value right away: define LOG_EARLY to make this clearer, and, while at it, group conditions in vlogmsg() into something more terse.

* tcp: Fix subtle bug in fast re-transmit pathDavid Gibson2024-02-111-1/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When a duplicate ack from the tap side triggers a fast re-transmit, we set both conn->seq_ack_from_tap and conn->seq_to_tap to the sequence number of the duplicate ack. Setting seq_to_tap is correct: this is what triggers the retransmit from this point onwards. Setting seq_ack_from_tap is not correct, though. In most cases setting seq_ack_from_tap will be redundant but harmless: it will have already been updated to the same value by tcp_update_seqack_from_tap() a few lines above. However that call can be skipped if tcp_sock_consume() fails, which is rare but possible. In that case this update will cause problems. We use seq_ack_from_tap to track two logically distinct things: how much of the stream has been acked by the guest, and how much of the stream from the socket has been read and discarded (as opposed to MSG_PEEKed). We attempt to keep those values the same, because we discard data exactly when it is acked by the guest. However tcp_sock_consume() failing means we weren't able to disard the acked data. To handle that case, we skip the usual update of seq_ack_from_tap, effectively ignoring the ack assuming we'll get one which supersedes it soon enough. Setting seq_ack_from_tap in the fast retransmit path, however, means we now really will have the read/discard point in the stream out of sync with seq_ack_from_tap.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently we use icmp_act[] to scan for ICMP ids which might have an open socket which could time out. However icmp_act[] contains no information that's not already in icmp_id_map[] - it's just an "index" which allows scanning for relevant entries with less cache footprint. We only scan for ICMP socket expiry every 1s, though, so it's not clear that cache footprint really matters. Furthermore, there's no strong reason we need to scan even that often - the timeout is fairly arbitrary and approximate. So, eliminate icmp_act[] in favour of directly scanning icmp_id_map[] and compensate for the cache impact by reducing the scan frequency to once every 10s.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When forwarding pings from tap, currently we create a ping socket with a socket address whose port is set to the ID of the ping received from the guest. This causes the socket to send pings with the same ID on the host. Although this seems look a good idea for maximum transparency, it's probably unwise. First, it's fallible - the bind() could fail, and we already have fallback logic which will overwrite the packets with the expected guest id if the id we get on replies doesn't already match. We might as well do that unconditionally. But more importantly, we don't know what else on the host might be using ping sockets, so we could end up with an ID that's the same as an existing socket. You'd expect that to fail the bind() with EADDRINUSE, which would be fine: we'd fall back to rewriting the reply ids. However it appears the kernel (v6.6.3 at least), does *not* fail the bind() and instead it's "last socket wins" in terms of who gets the replies. So we could accidentally intercept ping replies for something else on the host. So, instead of using bind() to set the id, just let the kernel pick one and expect to translate the replies back. Although theoretically this makes the passt/pasta link a bit less "transparent", essentially nothing cares about specific ping IDs, much like TCP source ports, which we also don't preserve.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Linux ICMP "ping" sockets are very specific in what they do. They let userspace send ping requests (ICMP_ECHO or ICMP6_ECHO_REQUEST), and receive matching replies (ICMP_ECHOREPLY or ICMP6_ECHO_REPLY). They don't let you intercept or handle incoming ping requests. In the case of passt/pasta that means we can process echo requests from tap and forward them to a ping socket, then take the replies from the ping socket and forward them to tap. We can't do the reverse: take echo requests from the host and somehow forward them to the guest. There's really no way for something outside to initiate a ping to a passt/pasta connected guest and if there was we'd need an entirely different mechanism to handle it. However, we have some logic to deal with packets going in that reverse direction. Remove it, since it can't ever be used that way.

Doing this sometimes requires moving an entry when one is freed. That's kind of fiddly, and potentially expensive: it requires updating the hash table for the new location, and depending on flow type, it may require EPOLL_CTL_MOD, system calls to update epoll tags with the new location too. Implement a new way of managing the flow table that doesn't ever move entries. It attempts to maintain some compactness by always using the first free slot for a new connection, and mitigates the effect of non compactness by cheaply skipping over contiguous blocks of free entries.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | tcp_timer() scans the flow table so that it can run tcp_splice_timer() on each spliced connection. More generally, other flow types might want to run similar timers in future. We could add a flow_timer() analagous to tcp_timer(), udp_timer() etc. However, this would need to scan the flow table, which we would have just done in flow_defer_handler(). We'd prefer to just scan the flow table once, dispatching both per-flow deferred events and per-flow timed events if necessary. So, extend flow_defer_handler() to do this. For now we use the same timer interval for all flow types (1s). We can make that more flexible in future if we need to.

* flow, tcp: Add flow-centric dispatch for deferred flow handlingDavid Gibson2024-01-225-17/+28
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | tcp_defer_handler(), amongst other things, scans the flow table and does some processing for each TCP connection. When we add other protocols to the flow table, they're likely to want some similar scanning. It makes more sense for cache friendliness to perform a single scan of the flow table and dispatch to the protocol specific handlers, rather than having each protocol separately scan the table. To that end, add a new flow_defer_handler() handling all flow-linked deferred operations. Signed-off-by: David Gibson <david@gibson.dropbear.id.au> Signed-off-by: Stefano Brivio <sbrivio@redhat.com>

* tcp, tcp_splice: Remove redundant handling from tcp_timer()David Gibson2024-01-223-19/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | tcp_timer() scans the connection table, expiring "tap" connections and calling tcp_splice_timer() for "splice" connections. tcp_splice_timer() expires spliced connections and then does some other processing. However, tcp_timer() is always called shortly after tcp_defer_handler() (from post_handler()), which also scans the flow table expiring both tap and spliced connections. So remove the redundant handling, and only do the extra tcp_splice_timer() work from tcp_timer().

* flow: Make flow_table.h #include the protocol specific headers it needsDavid Gibson2024-01-224-3/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | flow_table.h, the lower level flow header relies on having the struct definitions for every protocol specific flow type - so far that means tcp_conn.h. It doesn't include it itself, so tcp_conn.h must be included before flow_table.h. That's ok for now, but as we use the flow table for more things, flow_table.h will need the structs for all of them, which means the protocol specific .c files would need to include tcp_conn.h _and_ the equivalents for every other flow type before flow_table.h every time, which is weird. So, although we *mostly* lean towards the include style where .c files need to handle the include dependencies, in this case it makes more sense to have flow_table.h include all the protocol specific headers it needs.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | f0ccca74 ("test: make passt.mbuto script more robust") is supposed to make mbuto more robust by standardizing on always putting things in /usr/sbin with /sbin a symlink to it. This matters because different distros have different conventions about how the two are used. However, the logic there requires that /usr/sbin at least exists to start with. This isn't always the case with Fedora derived mbuto images. Ironically the DIRS variable ensures that /sbin exists, although we then remove it, but doesn't require /usr/sbin to exist. Fix that up so that the new logic will work with Fedora.

* netlink: Fetch most specific (longest prefix) address in nl_addr_get()2023_12_30.f091893Stefano Brivio2023-12-301-5/+14
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This happened in most cases implicitly before commit eff3bcb24547 ("netlink: Split nl_addr() into separate operation functions"): while going through results from netlink, we would only copy an address into the provided return buffer if no address had been picked yet. Because of the insertion logic in the kernel (ipv6_link_dev_addr()), the first returned address would also be the one added last, and, in case of a Linux guest using a DHCPv6 client as well as SLAAC, that would be the address assigned via DHCPv6, because SLAAC happens before the DHCPv6 exchange. The effect of, instead, picking the last returned address (first assigned) is visible when passt or pasta runs nested, given that, by default, they advertise a prefix for SLAAC usage, plus an address via DHCPv6. The first level (L1 guest) would get a /64 address by means of SLAAC, and a /128 address via DHCPv6, the latter matching the address on the host. The second level (L2 guest) would also get two addresses: a /64 via SLAAC (same prefix as the host), and a /128 via DHCPv6, matching the the L1 SLAAC-assigned address, not the one obtained via DHCPv6. That is, none of the L2 addresses would match the address on the host. The whole point of having a DHCPv6 server is to avoid (implicit) NAT when possible, though. Fix this in a more explicit way than the behaviour we initially had: pick the first address among the set of most specific ones, by comparing prefix lengths. Do this for IPv4 and for link-local addresses, too, to match in any case the implementation of the default source address selection.

* treewide: Avoid in_addr_tDavid Gibson2023-12-272-3/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | IPv4 addresses can be stored in an in_addr_t or a struct in_addr. The former is just a type alias to a 32-bit integer, so doesn't really give us any type checking. Therefore we generally prefer the structure, since we mostly want to treat IP address as opaque objects. Fix a few places where we still use in_addr_t, but can just as easily use struct in_addr. Note there are still some uses of in_addr_t in conf.c, but those are justified: since they're doing prefix calculations, they actually need to look at the internals of the address as an integer.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The original commit message says: --- Currently we initialise the address field of the sockaddrs we construct to the any/unspecified address, but not in a very clear way: we use explicit 0 values, which is only interpretable if you know the order of fields in the sockaddr structures. Use explicit field names, and explicit initialiser macros for the address. Because we initialise to this default value, we don't need to explicitly set the any/unspecified address later on if the caller didn't pass an overriding bind address. --- and the original patch modified the initialisation of addr4 and addr6: - instead of { 0 }, { 0 } for sin_addr and sin_zero, .sin_addr = IN4ADDR_ANY_INIT - instead of 0, IN6ADDR_ANY_INIT, 0: .sin6_addr = IN6ADDR_ANY_INIT but I dropped those hunks: they break gcc versions 7 to 9 as reported in eed6933e6c29 ("udp: Explicitly initialise sin6_scope_id and sin_zero in sockaddr_in{,6}").
