* pasta: include errno in error message2023_06_25.32660cePaul Holzinger2023-06-251-4/+6
| | | | | | | | | | | When the open() or setns() calls fails pasta exits early and prints an error. However it did not include the errno so it was impossible to know why the syscall failed.

* isolation: keep CAP_SYS_PTRACE when requiredPaul Holzinger2023-06-251-1/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When pasta is started from an existing userns and tries to join the netns from another process it fails to open /proc/$pid/ns/net due the missing CAP_SYS_PTRACE capability in the --netns-only case. A simple reproducer for this. First create a userns: $ unshare -r Then create a new netns inside it and try to join that netns with pasta. $ unshare -n sleep inf & $ pasta --config-net --netns /proc/$!/ns/net Signed-off-by: Paul Holzinger <pholzing@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Stefano Brivio <sbrivio@redhat.com>

| | | | | | | | | | | | | While --no-copy-addrs and --no-copy-routes only make sense with --config-net, and they are implied on -g and -a, respectively, that doesn't mean we should refuse -a or -g without --config-net: they are still relevant for a number of things (including DHCP/DHCPv6/NDP configuration).

* conf: Make -a/--address really imply --no-copy-addrsStefano Brivio2023-06-251-0/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | I wrote it in commit message and man page, but not in conf()... Note that -g/--gateway correctly implies --no-copy-routes already. This fixes Podman's tests: podman networking with pasta(1) - IPv4 address assignment podman networking with pasta(1) - IPv4 default route assignment where we pass -a and -g to assign an address and a default gateway that's compatible with it, but -a doesn't disable the copy of addresses, so we ignore -a, and the default gateway is incompatible with the addresses we copy -- hence no routes in the container.

* seccomp: Make seccomp.sh re-entrancy safeDavid Gibson2023-06-251-2/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | seccomp.sh generates seccomp.h piece by piece using >> directives. This means that if two instances of seccomp.h are run concurrently a corrupted version of seccomp.h will be generated. Amongst other problems this can cause spurious failures on clang-tidy. Alter seccomp.sh to build the output in a temporary file and atomic move it to seccomp.h, so concurrent invocations will still result in valud output.

* tap: With pasta, don't reset on tap errors, handle write failuresStefano Brivio2023-06-231-5/+19
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Since commit 0515adceaa8f ("passt, pasta: Namespace-based sandboxing, defer seccomp policy application"), it makes no sense to close and reopen the tap device on error: we don't have access to /dev/net/tun after the initial setup phase. If we hit ENOBUFS while writing (as reported: in one case because the kernel actually ran out of memory, with another case under investigation), or ENOSPC, we're supposed to drop whatever data we were trying to send: there's no room for it. Handle EINTR just like we handled EAGAIN/EWOULDBLOCK: there's no particular reason why sending the same data should fail again. Anything else I can think of would be an unrecoverable error: exit with failure then. While at it, drop a useless cast on the write() call: it takes a const void * anyway.

It might partially cover the issue at: https://bugs.passt.top/show_bug.cgi?id=47 Support multiple addresses per address family for some use cases, but not the originally intended one: we'll still use a single outbound address (unless the routing table specifies different preferred source addresses depending on the destination), regardless of the address used in the target namespace.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Similarly to what we've just done with routes, support NL_DUP for addresses (currently not exposed): nl_addr() can optionally copy mulitple addresses to the target namespace, by fixing up data from the dump with appropriate flags and interface index, and repeating it back to the kernel on the socket opened in the target namespace. Link-local addresses are not copied: the family is set to AF_UNSPEC, which means the kernel will ignore them. Same for addresses from a mismatching address (pre-4.19 kernels without support for NETLINK_GET_STRICT_CHK). Ignore IFA_LABEL attributes by changing their type to IFA_UNSPEC, because in general they will report mismatching names, and we don't really need to use labels as we already know the interface index.

* conf: Don't exit if sourced default route has no gatewayStefano Brivio2023-05-232-5/+11
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | If we use a template interface without a gateway on the default route, we can still offer almost complete functionality, except that, of course, we can't map the gateway address to the outer namespace or host, and that we have no obvious server address or identifier for use in DHCP's siaddr and option 54 (Server identifier, mandatory). Continue, if we have a default route but no default gateway, and imply --no-map-gw and --no-dhcp in that case. NDP responder and DHCPv6 should be able to work as usual because we require a link-local address to be present, and we'll fall back to that. Together with the previous commits implementing an actual copy of routes from the outer namespace, this should finally fix the operation of 'pasta --config-net' for cases where we have a default route on the host, but no default gateway, as it's the case for tap-style routes, including typical Wireguard endpoints.

* netlink: Add functionality to copy routes from outer namespaceStefano Brivio2023-05-234-22/+68
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Instead of just fetching the default gateway and configuring a single equivalent route in the target namespace, on 'pasta --config-net', it might be desirable in some cases to copy the whole set of routes corresponding to a given output interface. For instance, in: https://github.com/containers/podman/issues/18539 IPv4 Default Route Does Not Propagate to Pasta Containers on Hetzner VPSes configuring the default gateway won't work without a gateway-less route (specifying the output interface only), because the default gateway is, somewhat dubiously, not on the same subnet as the container. This is a similar case to the one covered by commit 7656a6f88882 ("conf: Adjust netmask on mismatch between IPv4 address/netmask and gateway"), and I'm not exactly proud of that workaround. We also have: https://bugs.passt.top/show_bug.cgi?id=49 pasta does not work with tap-style interface for which, eventually, we should be able to configure a gateway-less route in the target namespace. Introduce different operation modes for nl_route(), including a new NL_DUP one, not exposed yet, which simply parrots back to the kernel the route dump for a given interface from the outer namespace, fixing up flags and interface indices on the way, and requesting to add the same routes in the target namespace, on the interface we manage. For n routes we want to duplicate, send n identical netlink requests including the full dump: routes might depend on each other and the kernel processes RTM_NEWROUTE messages sequentially, not atomically, and repeating the full dump naturally resolves dependencies without the need to actually calculate them. I'm not kidding, it actually works pretty well.

This is not really a remount: in fact, passing MS_REMOUNT to mount(2) would make the call fail.

* tap: Don't update ip6.addr_seen to ::David Gibson2023-05-171-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When we receive packets from the tap side, we update the addr_seen fields to reflect the last known address of the guest or ns. For ip4.addr_seen we, sensibly, only update if the address we've just seen isn't 0 (0.0.0.0). This case can occur during early DHCP transactions. We have no equivalent case for IPv6. We're less likely to hit this, because DHCPv6 uses link-local addresses, however we can see an source address of :: with certain multicast operations. This can bite us if we try to make an incoming connection very early after starting pasta with --config-net: we may have only seen some of those multicast packets, updated addr_seen to :: and not had any "real" packets to update it to a global address. I've seen this with some of the avocado test conversions. In any case, it can never make sense to update addr_seen to ::, so explicitly exclude that case.

* conf: Allow binding to ports on an interface without a specific addressStefano Brivio2023-03-292-1/+9
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Somebody might want to bind listening sockets to a specific interface, but not a specific address, and there isn't really a reason to prevent that. For example: -t %eth0/2022 Alternatively, we support options such as -t 0.0.0.0%eth0/2022 and -t ::%eth0/2022, but not together, for the same port. Enable this kind of syntax and add examples to the man page.

* tcp: Clear ACK_FROM_TAP_DUE also on unchanged ACK sequence from peerStefano Brivio2023-03-291-3/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Since commit cc6d8286d104 ("tcp: Reset ACK_FROM_TAP_DUE flag only as needed, update timer"), we don't clear ACK_FROM_TAP_DUE whenever we process an ACK segment, but, more correctly, only if we're really not waiting for a further ACK segment, that is, only if the acknowledged sequence matches what we sent. In the new function implementing this, tcp_update_seqack_from_tap(), we also reset the retransmission counter and store the updated ACK sequence. Both should be done iff forward progress is acknowledged, implied by the fact that the new ACK sequence is greater than the one we previously stored. At that point, it looked natural to also include the statements that clear and set the ACK_FROM_TAP_DUE flag inside the same conditional block: if we're not making forward progress, the need for an ACK, or lack thereof, should remain unchanged. There might be cases where this isn't true, though: without the previous commit 4e73e9bd655c ("tcp: Don't special case the handling of the ack of a syn"), this would happen if a tap-side client initiated a connection, and the server didn't send any data. At that point we would never, in the established state of the connection, call tcp_update_seqack_from_tap() with reported forward progress. That issue itself is fixed by the previous commit, now, but clearing ACK_FROM_TAP_DUE only on ACK sequence progress doesn't really follow any logic. Clear the ACK_FROM_TAP_DUE flag regardless of reported forward progress. If we clear it when it's already unset, conn_flag() will do nothing with it. This doesn't fix any known functional issue, rather a conceptual one.

* tcp: Don't special case the handling of the ack of a synDavid Gibson2023-03-291-2/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | TCP treats the SYN packets as though they occupied 1 byte in the logical data stream described by the sequence numbers. That is, the very first ACK (or SYN-ACK) each side sends should acknowledge a sequence number one greater than the initial sequence number given in the SYN or SYN-ACK it's responding to. In passt we were tracking that by advancing conn->seq_to_tap by one when we send a SYN or SYN-ACK (in tcp_send_flag()). However, we also initialized conn->seq_ack_from_tap, representing the acks we've already seen from the tap side, to ISN+1, meaning we treated it has having acknowledged the SYN before it actually did. There were apparently reasons for this in earlier versions, but it causes problems now. Because of this when we actually did receive the initial ACK or SYN-ACK, we wouldn't see the acknoweldged serial number as advancing, and so wouldn't clear the ACK_FROM_TAP_DUE flag. In most cases we'd get away because subsequent packets would clear the flag. However if one (or both) sides didn't send any data, the other side would (correctly) keep sending ISN+1 as the acknowledged sequence number, meaning we would never clear the ACK_FROM_TAP_DUE flag. That would mean we'd treat the connection as if we needed to retransmit (although we had 0 bytes to retransmit), and eventaully (after around 30s) reset the connection due to too many retransmits. Specifically this could cause the iperf3 throughput tests in the testsuite to fail if set for a long enough test period. Correct this by initializing conn->seq_ack_from_tap to the ISN and only advancing it when we actually get the first ACK (or SYN-ACK).

* tcp: Clarify allowed state for tcp_data_from_tap()David Gibson2023-03-291-0/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | Comments suggest that this should only be called for an ESTABLISHED connection. However, it's non-trivial to ascertain that from the actual control flow in the caller. Add an ASSERT() to make it very clear that this is only called in ESTABLISHED state. In fact, there were some circumstances where it could be called on a CLOSED connection. In a sense that is "established", but with that assert this does require specific (trivial) handling to avoid a spurious abort().

* tcp: Don't reset ACK_TO_TAP_DUE on any ACK, reschedule timer as needed2023_03_21.1ee2f7cStefano Brivio2023-03-211-4/+8
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This is mostly symmetric with commit cc6d8286d104 ("tcp: Reset ACK_FROM_TAP_DUE flag only as needed, update timer"): we shouldn't reset the ACK_TO_TAP_DUE flag on any inbound ACK segment, but only once we acknowledge everything we received from the guest or the container. If we don't, a client might unnecessarily hold off further data, especially during slow start, and in general we won't converge to the usable bandwidth. This is very visible especially with traffic tests on links with non-negligible latency, such as in the reported issue. There, a public iperf3 server sometimes aborts the test due do what appears to be a low iperf3's --rcv-timeout (probably less than a second). Even if this doesn't happen, the throughput will converge to a fraction of the usable bandwidth. Clear ACK_TO_TAP_DUE if we acknowledged everything, set it if we didn't, and reschedule the timer in case the flag is still set as the timer expires. While at it, decrease the ACK timer interval to 10ms. A 50ms interval is short enough for any bandwidth-delay product I had in mind (local connections, or non-local connections with limited bandwidth), but here I am, testing 1gbps transfers to a peer with 100ms RTT. Indeed, we could eventually make the timer interval dependent on the current window and estimated bandwidth-delay product, but at least for the moment being, 10ms should be long enough to avoid any measurable syscall overhead, yet usable for any real-world application.
