[PATCH nf-next] netfilter: ingress: translate 0 nf_hook_slow retval to -EINPROGRESS

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



The caller assumes that < 0 means that skb was stolen (or free'd).

All other return values continue skb processing.

nf_hook_slow returns 3 different return value types:

A) a (negative) errno value: the skb was dropped (NF_DROP, e.g.
by iptables '-j DROP' rule).

B) 0. The skb was stolen by the hook or queued to userspace.

C) 1. all hooks returned NF_ACCEPT so the caller should invoke
   the okfn so packet processing can continue.

nft ingress facility currently doesn't have the 'okfn' that
the NF_HOOK() macros use; there is no nfqueue support either.

So 1 means that nf_hook_ingress() caller should go on processing the skb.

In order to allow use of NF_STOLEN from ingress we need to translate
this to an errno number, else we'd crash because we continue with
already-free'd (or about to be free-d) skb.

Random dice roll has chosen EINPROGRESS.  The errno value isn't checked,
its just important that its less than 0.
