* fwd, conf: Allow NAT of the guest's assigned addressDavid Gibson2024-08-211-0/+10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The guest is usually assigned one of the host's IP addresses. That means it can't access the host itself via its usual address. The --map-host-loopback option (enabled by default with the gateway address) allows the guest to contact the host. However, connections forwarded this way appear on the host to have originated from the loopback interface, which isn't always desirable. Add a new --map-guest-addr option, which acts similarly but forwarded connections will go to the host's external address, instead of loopback. If '-a' is used, so the guest's address is not the same as the host's, this will instead forward to whatever host-visible site is shadowed by the guest's assigned address.

* fwd: Distinguish translatable from untranslatable addresses on inboundDavid Gibson2024-08-211-1/+8
| | | | | | | | | | | | fwd_nat_from_host() needs to adjust the source address for new flows coming from an address which is not accessible to the guest. Currently we always use our_tap_addr or our_tap_ll. However in cases where the address is accessible to the guest via translation (i.e. via --map-host-loopback) then it makes more sense to use that translation, rather than the fallback mapping of our_tap_*.

* conf, fwd: Split notion of gateway/router from guest-visible host addressDavid Gibson2024-08-211-2/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The @gw fields in the ip4_ctx and ip6_ctx give the (host's) default gateway. We use this for two quite distinct things: advertising the gateway that the guest should use (via DHCP, NDP and/or --config-net) and for a limited form of NAT. So that the guest can access services on the host, we map the gateway address within the guest to the loopback address on the host. Using the gateway address for this isn't necessarily the best choice for this purpose, certainly not for all circumstances. So, start off by splitting the notion of these into two different values: @guest_gw which is the gateway address the guest should use and @nat_host_loopback, which is the guest visible address to remap to the host's loopback. Usually nat_host_loopback will have the same value as guest_gw. However when --no-map-gw is specified we leave them unspecified instead. This means when we use nat_host_loopback, we don't need to separately check c->no_map_gw to see if it's relevant.

* fwd: Split notion of "our tap address" from gateway for IPv4David Gibson2024-08-211-3/+7
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | ip4.gw conflates 3 conceptually different things, which (for now) have the same value: 1. The router/gateway address as seen by the guest 2. An address to NAT to the host with --no-map-gw isn't specified 3. An address to use as source when nothing else makes sense Case 3 occurs in two situations: a) for our DHCP responses - since they come from passt internally there's no naturally meaningful address for them to come from b) for forwarded connections coming from an address that isn't guest accessible (localhost or the guest's own address). (b) occurs even with --no-map-gw, and the expected behaviour of forwarding local connections requires it. For IPv6 role (3) is now taken by ip6.our_tap_ll (which usually has the same value as ip6.gw). For future flexibility we may want to make this "address of last resort" different from the gateway address, so split them logically for IPv4 as well. Specifically, add a new ip4.our_tap_addr field for the address with this role, and initialise it to ip4.gw for now. Unlike IPv6 where we can always get a link-local address, we might not be able to get a (non 0.0.0.0) address here (e.g. if the host is disconnected or only has a point to point link with no gateway address). In that case we have to disable forwarding of inbound connections with guest-inaccessible source addresses.

* fwd: Helpers to clarify what host addresses aren't guest accessibleDavid Gibson2024-08-211-11/+87
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | We usually avoid NAT, but in a few cases we need to apply address translations. For inbound connections that happens for addresses which make sense to the host but are either inaccessible, or mean a different location from the guest's point of view. Add some helper functions to determine such addresses, and use them in fwd_nat_from_host(). In doing so clarify some of the reasons for the logic. We'll also have further use for these helpers in future. While we're there fix one unneccessary inconsistency between IPv4 and IPv6. We always translated the guest's observed address, but for IPv4 we didn't translate the guest's assigned address, whereas for IPv6 we did. Change this to translate both in all cases for consistency.

* Initialise our_tap_ll to ip6.gw when suitableDavid Gibson2024-08-211-4/+1
| | | | | | | | | In every place we use our_tap_ll, we only use it as a fallback if the IPv6 gateway address is not link-local. We can avoid that conditional at use time by doing it at initialisation of our_tap_ll instead.

* treewide: Use "our address" instead of "forwarding address"David Gibson2024-08-211-35/+35
| | | | | | | | | | | | The term "forwarding address" to indicate the local-to-passt address was well-intentioned, but ends up being kinda confusing. As discussed on a recent call, let's try "our" instead. (While we're there correct an error in flow_initiate_af()s comments where we referred to parameters by the wrong name).

* fwd: Broaden what we consider for DNS specific forwarding rulesDavid Gibson2024-07-251-2/+16
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | passt/pasta has options to redirect DNS requests from the guest to a different server address on the host side. Currently, however, only UDP packets to port 53 are considered "DNS requests". This ignores DNS requests over TCP - less common, but certainly possible. It also ignores encrypted DNS requests on port 853. Extend the DNS forwarding logic to handle both of those cases.

* fwd: Refactor tests in fwd_nat_from_tap() for clarityDavid Gibson2024-07-251-13/+12
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently, we start by handling the common case, where we don't translate the destination address, then we modify the tgt side for the special cases. In the process we do comparisons on the tentatively set fields in tgt, which obscures the fact that tgt should be an essentially pure function of ini, and risks people examining fields of tgt that are not yet initialized. To make this clearer, do all our tests on 'ini', constructing tgt from scratch on that basis.

* udp: Remove rdelta port forwarding mapsDavid Gibson2024-07-191-12/+12
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In addition to the struct fwd_ports used by both UDP and TCP to track port forwarding, UDP also included an 'rdelta' field, which contained the reverse mapping of the main port map. This was used so that we could properly direct reply packets to a forwarded packet where we change the destination port. This has now been taken over by the flow table: reply packets will match the flow of the originating packet, and that gives the correct ports on the originating side. So, eliminate the rdelta field, and with it struct udp_fwd_ports, which now has no additional information over struct fwd_ports.

The logic here doesn't exactly match our current forwarding, since our current forwarding has some very strange and buggy edge cases. Instead it's attempting to replicate what appears to be the intended logic behind the current forwarding.

* flow, tcp: Flow based NAT and port forwarding for TCPDavid Gibson2024-07-191-0/+148
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently the code to translate host side addresses and ports to guest side addresses and ports, and vice versa, is scattered across the TCP code. This includes both port redirection as controlled by the -t and -T options, and our special case NAT controlled by the --no-map-gw option. Gather this logic into fwd_nat_from_*() functions for each input interface in fwd.c which take protocol and address information for the initiating side and generates the pif and address information for the forwarded side. This performs any NAT or port forwarding needed. We create a flow_target() helper which applies those forwarding functions as needed to automatically move a flow from INI to TGT state.

* treewide: Replace strerror() callsStefano Brivio2024-06-211-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | Now that we have logging functions embedding perror() functionality, we can make _some_ calls more terse by using them. In many places, the strerror() calls are still more convenient because, for example, they are used in flow debugging functions, or because the return code variable of interest is not 'errno'. While at it, convert a few error messages from a scant perror style to proper failure descriptions.

Currently port_fwd.[ch] contains helpers related to port forwarding, particular automatic port forwarding. We're planning to allow much more flexible sorts of forwarding, including both port translation and NAT based on the flow table. This will subsume the existing port forwarding logic, so rename port_fwd.[ch] to fwd.[ch] with matching updates to all the names within.
