* tcp, udp: Split IPv4 and IPv6 bound port setsStefano Brivio2021-07-211-6/+12
| | | | | | | | | | | Allow to bind IPv4 and IPv6 ports to tap, namespace or init separately. Port numbers of TCP ports that are bound in a namespace are also bound for UDP for convenience (e.g. iperf3), and IPv4 ports are always bound if the corresponding IPv6 port is bound (socket might not have the IPV6_V6ONLY option set). This will also be configurable later. Signed-off-by: Stefano Brivio <sbrivio@redhat.com>
* passt: Add PASTA mode, major reworkStefano Brivio2021-07-171-13/+32
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | PASTA (Pack A Subtle Tap Abstraction) provides quasi-native host connectivity to an otherwise disconnected, unprivileged network and user namespace, similarly to slirp4netns. Given that the implementation is largely overlapping with PASST, no separate binary is built: 'pasta' (and 'passt4netns' for clarity) both link to 'passt', and the mode of operation is selected depending on how the binary is invoked. Usage example: $ unshare -rUn # echo $$ 1871759 $ ./pasta 1871759 # From another terminal # udhcpc -i pasta0 2>/dev/null # ping -c1 pasta.pizza PING pasta.pizza (64.190.62.111) 56(84) bytes of data. 64 bytes from 64.190.62.111 (64.190.62.111): icmp_seq=1 ttl=255 time=34.6 ms --- pasta.pizza ping statistics --- 1 packets transmitted, 1 received, 0% packet loss, time 0ms rtt min/avg/max/mdev = 34.575/34.575/34.575/0.000 ms # ping -c1 spaghetti.pizza PING spaghetti.pizza(2606:4700:3034::6815:147a (2606:4700:3034::6815:147a)) 56 data bytes 64 bytes from 2606:4700:3034::6815:147a (2606:4700:3034::6815:147a): icmp_seq=1 ttl=255 time=29.0 ms --- spaghetti.pizza ping statistics --- 1 packets transmitted, 1 received, 0% packet loss, time 0ms rtt min/avg/max/mdev = 28.967/28.967/28.967/0.000 ms This entails a major rework, especially with regard to the storage of tracked connections and to the semantics of epoll(7) references. Indexing TCP and UDP bindings merely by socket proved to be inflexible and unsuitable to handle different connection flows: pasta also provides Layer-2 to Layer-2 socket mapping between init and a separate namespace for local connections, using a pair of splice() system calls for TCP, and a recvmmsg()/sendmmsg() pair for UDP local bindings. For instance, building on the previous example: # ip link set dev lo up # iperf3 -s $ iperf3 -c ::1 -Z -w 32M -l 1024k -P2 | tail -n4 [SUM] 0.00-10.00 sec 52.3 GBytes 44.9 Gbits/sec 283 sender [SUM] 0.00-10.43 sec 52.3 GBytes 43.1 Gbits/sec receiver iperf Done. epoll(7) references now include a generic part in order to demultiplex data to the relevant protocol handler, using 24 bits for the socket number, and an opaque portion reserved for usage by the single protocol handlers, in order to track sockets back to corresponding connections and bindings. A number of fixes pertaining to TCP state machine and congestion window handling are also included here. Signed-off-by: Stefano Brivio <sbrivio@redhat.com>
* udp, passt: Introduce socket packet buffer, avoid getsockname() for UDPStefano Brivio2021-04-301-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | This is in preparation for scatter-gather IO on the UDP receive path: save a getsockname() syscall by setting a flag if we get the numbering of all bound sockets in a strict sequence (expected, in practice) and repurpose the tap buffer to be also a socket receive buffer, passing it down to protocol handlers.

* udp: Connection tracking for ephemeral, local ports, and related fixesStefano Brivio2021-04-291-2/+7
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | As we support UDP forwarding for packets that are sent to local ports, we actually need some kind of connection tracking for UDP. While at it, this commit introduces a number of vaguely related fixes for issues observed while trying this out. In detail: - implement an explicit, albeit minimalistic, connection tracking for UDP, to allow usage of ephemeral ports by the guest and by the host at the same time, by binding them dynamically as needed, and to allow mapping address changes for packets with a loopback address as destination - set the guest MAC address whenever we receive a packet from tap instead of waiting for an ARP request, and set it to broadcast on start, otherwise DHCPv6 might not work if all DHCPv6 requests time out before the guest starts talking IPv4 - split context IPv6 address into address we assign, global or site address seen on tap, and link-local address seen on tap, and make sure we use the addresses we've seen as destination (link-local choice depends on source address). Similarly, for IPv4, split into address we assign and address we observe, and use the address we observe as destination - introduce a clock_gettime() syscall right after epoll_wait() wakes up, so that we can remove all the other ones and pass the current timestamp to tap and socket handlers -- this is additionally needed by UDP to time out bindings to ephemeral ports and mappings between loopback address and a local address - rename sock_l4_add() to sock_l4(), no semantic changes intended - include <arpa/inet.h> in passt.c before kernel headers so that we can use <netinet/in.h> macros to check IPv6 address types, and remove a duplicate <linux/ip.h> inclusion Signed-off-by: Stefano Brivio <sbrivio@redhat.com>
* tcp: Avoid SO_ACCEPTCONN getsockopt() by noting listening/data sockets numbersStefano Brivio2021-04-291-0/+8

* passt: Spare some syscalls, add some optimisations from profilingStefano Brivio2021-04-231-0/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Avoid a bunch of syscalls on forwarding paths by: - storing minimum and maximum file descriptor numbers for each protocol, fall back to SO_PROTOCOL query only on overlaps - allocating a larger receive buffer -- this can result in more coalesced packets than sendmmsg() can take (UIO_MAXIOV, i.e. 1024), so make sure we don't exceed that within a single call to protocol tap handlers - nesting the handling loop in tap_handler() in the receive loop, so that we have better chances of filling our receive buffer in fewer calls - skipping the recvfrom() in the UDP handler on EPOLLERR -- there's nothing to be done in that case and while at it: - restore the 20ms timer interval for periodic (TCP) events, I accidentally changed that to 100ms in an earlier commit - attempt using SO_ZEROCOPY for UDP -- if it's not available, sendmmsg() will succeed anyway - fix the handling of the status code from sendmmsg(), if it fails, we'll try to discard the first message, hence return 1 from the UDP handler Signed-off-by: Stefano Brivio <sbrivio@redhat.com>
* passt: Introduce packet batching mechanismStefano Brivio2021-04-221-1/+2
| | | | | | | | | | Receive packets in batches from AF_UNIX, check if they can be sent with a single syscall, and batch them up with sendmmsg() in case. A bit rudimentary, currently only implemented for UDP, but it seems to work. Signed-off-by: Stefano Brivio <sbrivio@redhat.com>

* passt: Assorted fixes from "fresh eyes" reviewStefano Brivio2021-02-211-2/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | A bunch of fixes not worth single commits at this stage, notably: - make buffer, length parameter ordering consistent in ARP, DHCP, NDP handlers - strict checking of buffer, message and option length in DHCP handler (a malicious client could have easily crashed it) - set up forwarding for IPv4 and IPv6, and masquerading with nft for IPv4, from demo script - get rid of separate slow and fast timers, we don't save any overhead that way - stricter checking of buffer lengths as passed to tap handlers - proper dequeuing from qemu socket back-end: I accidentally trashed messages that were bundled up together in a single tap read operation -- the length header tells us what's the size of the next frame, but there's no apparent limit to the number of messages we get with one single receive - rework some bits of the TCP state machine, now passive and active connection closes appear to be robust -- introduce a new FIN_WAIT_1_SOCK_FIN state indicating a FIN_WAIT_1 with a FIN flag from socket - streamline TCP option parsing routine - track TCP state changes to stderr (this is temporary, proper debugging and syslogging support pending) - observe that multiplying a number by four might very well change its value, and this happens to be the case for the data offset from the TCP header as we check if it's the same as the total length to find out if it's a duplicated ACK segment - recent estimates suggest that the duration of a millisecond is closer to a million nanoseconds than a thousand of them, this trend is now reflected into the timespec_diff_ms() convenience routine Signed-off-by: Stefano Brivio <sbrivio@redhat.com>
* passt: New design and implementation with native Layer 4 socketsStefano Brivio2021-02-161-0/+5
This is a reimplementation, partially building on the earlier draft, that uses L4 sockets (SOCK_DGRAM, SOCK_STREAM) instead of SOCK_RAW, providing L4-L2 translation functionality without requiring any security capability. Conceptually, this follows the design presented at: https://gitlab.com/abologna/kubevirt-and-kvm/-/blob/master/Networking.md The most significant novelty here comes from TCP and UDP translation layers. In particular, the TCP state and translation logic follows the intent of being minimalistic, without reimplementing a full TCP stack in either direction, and synchronising as much as possible the TCP dynamic and flows between guest and host kernel. Another important introduction concerns addressing, port translation and forwarding. The Layer 4 implementations now attempt to bind on all unbound ports, in order to forward connections in a transparent way. While at it: - the qemu 'tap' back-end can't be used as-is by qrap anymore, because of explicit checks now introduced in qemu to ensure that the corresponding file descriptor is actually a tap device. For this reason, qrap now operates on a 'socket' back-end type, accounting for and building the additional header reporting frame length - provide a demo script that sets up namespaces, addresses and routes, and starts the daemon. A virtual machine started in the network namespace, wrapped by qrap, will now directly interface with passt and communicate using Layer 4 sockets provided by the host kernel.
