Add minimal support to hook bpf programs to netfilter hooks, e.g. PREROUTING or FORWARD. For this the most relevant parts for registering a netfilter hook via the in-kernel api are exposed to userspace via bpf_link. The new program type is 'tracing style', i.e. there is no context access rewrite done by verifier, the function argument (struct bpf_nf_ctx) isn't stable. There is no support for direct packet access, dynptr api should be used instead. With this its possible to build a small test program such as: #include "vmlinux.h" extern int bpf_dynptr_from_skb(struct __sk_buff *skb, __u64 flags, struct bpf_dynptr *ptr__uninit) __ksym; extern void *bpf_dynptr_slice(const struct bpf_dynptr *ptr, uint32_t offset, void *buffer, uint32_t buffer__sz) __ksym; SEC("netfilter") int nf_test(struct bpf_nf_ctx *ctx) { struct nf_hook_state *state = ctx->state; struct sk_buff *skb = ctx->skb; const struct iphdr *iph, _iph; const struct tcphdr *th, _th; struct bpf_dynptr ptr; if (bpf_dynptr_from_skb(skb, 0, &ptr)) return NF_DROP; iph = bpf_dynptr_slice(&ptr, 0, &_iph, sizeof(_iph)); if (!iph) return NF_DROP; th = bpf_dynptr_slice(&ptr, iph->ihl << 2, &_th, sizeof(_th)); if (!th) return NF_DROP; bpf_printk("accept %x:%d->%x:%d, hook %d ifin %d\n", iph->saddr, bpf_ntohs(th->source), iph->daddr, bpf_ntohs(th->dest), state->hook, state->in->ifindex); return NF_ACCEPT; } Then, tail /sys/kernel/tracing/trace_pipe. Changes since last RFC version: 1. extend 'bpftool link show' to print prio/hooknum etc 2. extend 'nft list hooks' so it can print the bpf program id 3. Add an extra patch to artificially restrict bpf progs with same priority. Its fine from a technical pov but it will cause ordering issues (most recent one comes first). Can be removed later. 4. Add test_run support for netfilter prog type and a small extension to verifier tests to make sure we can't return verdicts like NF_STOLEN. 5. Alter the netfilter part of the bpf_link uapi struct: - add flags/reserved members. Not used here except returning errors when they are nonzero. Plan is to allow the bpf_link users to enable netfilter defrag or conntrack engine by setting feature flags at link create time in the future. Let me know if there is anything missing that has to be addressed before this can be merged. Thanks!
