Hey everyone,
This is another resend of the same patch series. I have received so many
requests, pings, and questions that I would really like to push for this
again.
Over time I have seen multiple reports by users who want to run applications
(Kubernetes e.g. via [1]) that require the br_netfilter module in
non-initial network namespaces. There are *a lot* of issues for this. A
shortlist including ChromeOS and other big users is found below under
[2]! Even non-devs already tried to get more traction on this by
commenting on the patchset (cf. [3]).
Currently, the /proc/sys/net/bridge folder is only created in the
initial network namespace. This patch series ensures that the
/proc/sys/net/bridge folder is available in each network namespace if
the module is loaded and disappears from all network namespaces when the
module is unloaded.
The patch series also makes the sysctls:
bridge-nf-call-arptables
bridge-nf-call-ip6tables
bridge-nf-call-iptables
bridge-nf-filter-pppoe-tagged
bridge-nf-filter-vlan-tagged
bridge-nf-pass-vlan-input-dev
apply per network namespace. This unblocks some use-cases where users
would like to e.g. not do bridge filtering for bridges in a specific
network namespace while doing so for bridges located in another network
namespace.
The netfilter rules are afaict already per network namespace so it
should be safe for users to specify whether a bridge device inside their
network namespace is supposed to go through iptables et al. or not.
Also, this can already be done by setting an option for each individual
bridge via Netlink. It should also be possible to do this for all
bridges in a network namespace via sysctls.
Thanks!
Christian

2.21.0
Currently, the /proc/sys/net/bridge folder is only created in the initial
network namespace. This patch ensures that the /proc/sys/net/bridge folder
is available in each network namespace if the module is loaded and
disappears from all network namespaces when the module is unloaded.
In doing so the patch makes the sysctls:
bridge-nf-call-arptables
bridge-nf-call-ip6tables
bridge-nf-call-iptables
bridge-nf-filter-pppoe-tagged
bridge-nf-filter-vlan-tagged
bridge-nf-pass-vlan-input-dev
apply per network namespace. This unblocks some use-cases where users would
like to e.g. not do bridge filtering for bridges in a specific network
namespace while doing so for bridges located in another network namespace.
The netfilter rules are afaict already per network namespace so it should
be safe for users to specify whether bridge devices inside a network
namespace are supposed to go through iptables et al. or not. Also, this can
already be done per-bridge by setting an option for each individual bridge
via Netlink. It should also be possible to do this for all bridges in a
network namespace via sysctls.

2.21.0
This adds struct netns_brnf in preparation for per-network-namespace
br_netfilter settings. The individual br_netfilter sysctl options are moved
into a central place in struct net. The struct is only included when
the CONFIG_BRIDGE_NETFILTER kconfig option is enabled in the kernel.

I think we had discussed something like this but the problem why we
can't do this stems from how the sysctl-table stuff is implemented.
I distinctly remember that it couldn't be done with a flag due to that.

Do you really need to waste four bytes for each
flag value. If you use a u8 that would work just as well.
Bool would also work but the kernel developers frown on bool
in structures.

Could you define a pernet_operations object? I mean, define the id and size
fields, then pass it to register_pernet_subsys() for registration.
Similar to what we do in net/ipv4/netfilter/ipt_CLUSTER.c, see
clusterip_net_ops and clusterip_pernet() for instance.

br_netfilter is now a module, and br_netfilter_hooks.c is part of it
IIRC, this file registers these sysctl entries from the module __init
path.
It would be a matter of adding a new .init callback to the existing
brnf_net_ops object in br_netfilter_hooks.c. Then, call
register_net_sysctl() from this .init callback to register the sysctl
entries per netns.
There is already a brnf_net area that you can reuse for this purpose,
to place these pernetns flags...
struct brnf_net {
bool enabled;
};
which is going to be glad to have more fields (under the #ifdef
CONFIG_SYSCTL) there.

Hm, I don't think that would work. The sysctls for br_netfilter are
located in /proc/sys/net/bridge under /proc/sys/net which is tightly
integrated with the sysctls infrastructure for all of net/ and all the
folder underneath it including "core", "ipv4" and "ipv6".
I don't think creating and managing files manually in /proc/sys/net is
going to fly. It also doesn't seem very wise from a consistency and
complexity pov. I'm also not sure if this would work at all wrt to file
creation and reference counting if there are two different ways of
managing them in the same subfolder...
(clusterip creates files manually underneath /proc/net which probably is
the reason why it gets away with it.)

Actually, this is what you patch is doing...

... except that struct brnf_net is not used to store the ctl_table.
So what I'm propose should be result in a small update to your patch 2/2.

Actually not, I think. I had to rework it substantially but I think the
outcome is quite nice. :) I'll send a new version now/today. :)
