Subject: [PATCH] nft: Fix for broken address mask match detection
9c35a8
9c35a8
Trying to decide whether a bitwise expression is needed to match parts
9c35a8
of a source or destination address only, add_addr() checks if all bytes
9c35a8
in 'mask' are 0xff or not. The check is apparently broken though as each
9c35a8
byte in 'mask' is cast to a signed char before comparing against 0xff,
9c35a8
therefore the bitwise is always added:
9c35a8
9c35a8
| # ./bad/iptables-nft -A foo -s 10.0.0.1 -j ACCEPT
9c35a8
| # ./good/iptables-nft -A foo -s 10.0.0.2 -j ACCEPT
9c35a8
| # nft --debug=netlink list chain ip filter foo
9c35a8
| ip filter foo 5
9c35a8
|   [ payload load 4b @ network header + 12 => reg 1 ]
9c35a8
|   [ bitwise reg 1 = (reg=1 & 0xffffffff ) ^ 0x00000000 ]
9c35a8
|   [ cmp eq reg 1 0x0100000a ]
9c35a8
|   [ counter pkts 0 bytes 0 ]
9c35a8
|   [ immediate reg 0 accept ]
9c35a8
|
9c35a8
| ip filter foo 6 5
9c35a8
|   [ payload load 4b @ network header + 12 => reg 1 ]
9c35a8
|   [ cmp eq reg 1 0x0200000a ]
9c35a8
|   [ counter pkts 0 bytes 0 ]
9c35a8
|   [ immediate reg 0 accept ]
9c35a8
|
9c35a8
| table ip filter {
9c35a8
| 	chain foo {
9c35a8
| 		ip saddr 10.0.0.1 counter packets 0 bytes 0 accept
9c35a8
| 		ip saddr 10.0.0.2 counter packets 0 bytes 0 accept
9c35a8
| 	}
9c35a8
| }
9c35a8
9c35a8
Fix the cast, safe an extra op and gain 100% performance in ideal cases.
