There are setups where no host interface is available or configured
at all, intentionally or not, temporarily or not, but users expect
(Podman) containers to run in any case as they did with slirp4netns,
and we're now getting reports that we broke such setups at a rather
alarming rate.
To this end, if we don't find any usable host interface, instead of
exiting:
- for IPv4, use 169.254.2.1 as guest/container address and 169.254.2.2
as default gateway
- for IPv6, don't assign any address (forcibly disable DHCPv6), and
use the *first* link-local address we observe to represent the
guest/container. Advertise fe80::1 as default gateway
- use 'tap0' as default interface name for pasta
Change ifi4 and ifi6 in struct ctx to int and accept a special -1
value meaning that no host interface was selected, but the IP family
is enabled. The fact that the kernel uses unsigned int values for
those is not an issue as 1. one can't create so many interfaces
anyway and 2. we otherwise handle those values transparently.
Fix a botched conditional in conf_print() to actually skip printing
DHCPv6 information if DHCPv6 is disabled (and skip printing NDP
information if NDP is disabled).

In pasta mode, where addressing permits we "splice" connections, forwarding
directly from host socket to guest/container socket without any L2 or L3
processing. This gives us a very large performance improvement when it's
possible.
Since the traffic is from a local socket within the guest, it will go over
the guest's 'lo' interface, and accordingly we set the guest side address
to be the loopback address. However this has a surprising side effect:
sometimes guests will run services that are only supposed to be used within
the guest and are therefore bound to only 127.0.0.1 and/or ::1. pasta's
forwarding exposes those services to the host, which isn't generally what
we want.
Correct this by instead forwarding inbound "splice" flows to the guest's
external address.

When redirecting DNS queries with the --dns-forward option, passt/pasta

controlled by the c->ip[46].dns_host variables. This is set to the first
first nameserver listed in the host's /etc/resolv.conf, and there isn't

Prior to 0b25cac9 ("conf: Treat --dns addresses as guest visible

However, doing so was confusing and had some nonsensical edge cases because
-D generally takes guest side addresses, rather than host side addresses.

When we forward "all" ports (-t all or -u all), or use an exclude-only
range, we don't actually forward *all* ports - that wouln't leave local
ports to use for outgoing connections. Rather we forward all non-ephemeral
ports - those that won't be used for outgoing connections or datagrams.
Currently we assume the range of ephemeral ports is that recommended by
RFC 6335, 49152-65535. However, that's not the range used by default on
Linux, 32768-60999 but configurable with the net.ipv4.ip_local_port_range
sysctl.
We can't really know what range the guest will consider ephemeral, but if
it differs too much from the host it's likely to cause problems we can't
avoid anyway. So, using the host's ephemeral range is a better guess than
using the RFC 6335 range.
Therefore, add logic to probe the host's ephemeral range, falling back to
the RFC 6335 range if that fails. This has the bonus advantage of
reducing the number of ports bound by -t all -u all on most Linux machines
thereby reducing kernel memory usage. Specifically this reduces kernel
memory usage with -t all -u all from ~380MiB to ~289MiB.

"Ephemeral" ports are those which the kernel may allocate as local

they're generally not good choices for listening servers to bind to.
Thefore when using -t all, -u all or exclude-only ranges, we map only
non-ephemeral ports. Our logic for this is a bit rigid though: we
assume the ephemeral ports are always a fixed range at the top of the
port number space. We also assume PORT_EPHEMERAL_MIN is a multiple of
8, or we won't set the forward bitmap correctly.
Make the logic in conf.c more flexible, using a helper moved into
fwd.[ch], although we don't change which ports we consider ephemeral
(yet).

Seen with krun: we get a file descriptor via --fd, but we close it and

The issue is that if we also get other options before --fd, with
arguments, getopt_long() stops parsing them because it sees them as
non-option values.
Use the - modifier at the beginning of optstring (before :, which is
needed to avoid printing errors) instead of +, which means we'll
continue parsing after finding unrelated option values, but
getopt_long() won't reorder them anyway: they'll be passed with option
value '1', which we can ignore.
By the way, we also need to add : after F in the optstring, so that
we're able to parse the option when given as short name as well.
Now that we change the parsing mode between close_open_files() and
conf(), we need to reset optind to 0, not to 1, whenever we call
getopt_long() again in conf(), so that the internal initialisation
of getopt_long() evaluating GNU extensions is re-triggered.

The guest is usually assigned one of the host's IP addresses. That means

way appear on the host to have originated from the loopback interface,

connections will go to the host's external address, instead of loopback.

Because the host and guest share the same IP address with passt/pasta, it's
not possible for the guest to directly address the host. Therefore we
allow packets from the guest going to a special "NAT to host" address to be
redirected to the host, appearing there as though they have both source and
destination address of loopback.
Currently that special address is always the address of the default
gateway (or none). That can be a problem if we want that gateway to be
addressable by the guest. Therefore, allow the special "NAT to host"
address to be overridden on the command line with a new --map-host-loopback
option.
In order to exercise and test it, update the passt_in_ns and perf
tests to use this option and give different mapping addresses for the

The @gw fields in the ip4_ctx and ip6_ctx give the (host's) default
gateway. We use this for two quite distinct things: advertising the
gateway that the guest should use (via DHCP, NDP and/or --config-net)
and for a limited form of NAT. So that the guest can access services
on the host, we map the gateway address within the guest to the
loopback address on the host.
Using the gateway address for this isn't necessarily the best choice
for this purpose, certainly not for all circumstances. So, start off
by splitting the notion of these into two different values: @guest_gw
which is the gateway address the guest should use and @nat_host_loopback,
which is the guest visible address to remap to the host's loopback.
Usually nat_host_loopback will have the same value as guest_gw. However
when --no-map-gw is specified we leave them unspecified instead. This
means when we use nat_host_loopback, we don't need to separately check
c->no_map_gw to see if it's relevant.

When sending frames to the guest over the tap link, we need a source MAC

* We can't preserve the real MAC address of packets from anywhere
external so there's no transparency case here
* In fact, it's confusingly different from how we handle IP addresses:
whereas we give the guest the same IP as the host, we're making the
host's MAC the one MAC that the guest *can't* use for itself.
* We already need a fallback case if the host doesn't have an Ethernet
like MAC (e.g. if it's connected via a point to point interface, such
as a wireguard VPN).
Change to just just use an arbitrary fixed MAC address - I've picked

brackets unneeded, RFC 3986, section 3.2.2, mandates them for IPv6
literals. We want IPv6 addresses there, but some users might still
specify them out of habit.
Same for IPv4 addresses: RFC 3986 doesn't specify square brackets for
IPv4 literals, but I had reports of users actually trying to use them
(they're accepted by many tools).
Allow square brackets for both IPv4 and IPv6 addresses, correct or
not, they're harmless anyway.

In addition to the struct fwd_ports used by both UDP and TCP to track
port forwarding, UDP also included an 'rdelta' field, which contained the
reverse mapping of the main port map. This was used so that we could
properly direct reply packets to a forwarded packet where we change the
destination port. This has now been taken over by the flow table: reply
packets will match the flow of the originating packet, and that gives the
correct ports on the originating side.
So, eliminate the rdelta field, and with it struct udp_fwd_ports, which
now has no additional information over struct fwd_ports.

UDP and/or TCP can be disabled with the --no-udp and --no-tcp options.
However, when this is specified, it's still possible to configure forwarded
ports for the disabled protocol. In some cases this will open sockets and
perform other actions, which might not be safe since the entire protocol
won't be initialised.
Check for this case, and explicitly forbid it.

UNIX_SOCK_MAX is the maximum number we'll append to the socket path
if we generate it automatically. If it's given on the command line,
it can be up to UNIX_PATH_MAX (including the terminating character)
long.
UNIX_SOCK_MAX happened to kind of fit because it's 100 (instead of
108).
Commit ceddcac74a ("conf, tap: False "Buffer not null terminated"

If a log file is configured, we would otherwise open a connection to
the system logger (if any), print any message that we might have
before we initialise the log file, and then keep that connection
around for no particular reason.
Call __openlog() as an alternative to the log file setup, instead.
This way, we might skip printing some messages during the
initialisation phase, but they're probably not really valuable to
have in a system log, and we're going to print them to standard
error anyway.

Now that we have logging functions embedding perror() functionality,
we can make _some_ calls more terse by using them. In many places,
the strerror() calls are still more convenient because, for example,
they are used in flow debugging functions, or because the return code
variable of interest is not 'errno'.
While at it, convert a few error messages from a scant perror style
to proper failure descriptions.

perror() prints directly to standard error, but in many cases standard
error might be already closed, or we might want to skip logging, based
on configuration. Our logging functions provide all that.

We currently use a LOG_EMERG log mask to represent the fact that we
don't know yet what the mask resulting from configuration should be,
before the command line is parsed.
However, we have the necessity of representing another phase as well,
that is, configuration is parsed but we didn't daemonise yet, or
we're not ready for operation yet. The next patch will add that
notion explicitly.
Mapping these cases to further log levels isn't really practical.
Introduce boolean log flags to represent them, instead of abusing
log priorities.

The original behaviour of printing messages to standard error by
default when running from a non-interactive terminal was introduced
because the first KubeVirt integration draft used to start passt in
foreground and get messages via standard error.
For development purposes, the system logger was more convenient at
that point, and passt was running from interactive terminals only if
not started by the KubeVirt integration.
This behaviour was introduced by 84a62b79a2 ("passt: Also log to
stderr, don't fork to background if not interactive").
Later, I added command-line options in 1e49d194d0 ("passt, pasta:
Introduce command-line options and port re-mapping") and accidentally
reversed this condition, which wasn't a problem as --stderr could
force printing to standard error anyway (and it was used by KubeVirt).
Nowadays, the KubeVirt integration uses a log file (requested via
libvirt configuration), and the same applies for Podman if one
actually needs to look at runtime logs. There are no use cases left,
as far as I know, where passt runs in foreground in non-interactive
terminals.
Seize the chance to reintroduce some sanity here. If we fork to
background, standard error is closed, so --stderr is useless in that
case.
If we run in foreground, there's no harm in printing messages to
standard error, and that accidentally became the default behaviour
anyway, so --stderr is not needed in that case.
It would be needed for non-interactive terminals, but there are no
use cases, and if there were, let's log to standard error anyway:
the user can always redirect standard error to /dev/null if needed.
Before we're up and running, we need to print to standard error anyway
if something happens, otherwise we can't report failure to start in
any kind of usage, stand-alone or in integrations.
So, make --stderr do nothing, and deprecate it.
While at it, drop a left-over comment about --foreground being the
default only for interactive terminals, because it's not the case
anymore.

If we don't run in foreground, we close standard error as we
daemonise, so it makes no sense to check if the controlling terminal
is an interactive terminal or if --force-stderr was given, to decide
if we want to log to standard error.

In multiple occasions, especially when passt(1) and pasta(1) are used
in integrations such as the one with Podman, the ability to override
earlier options on the command line with later one would have been
convenient.
Recently, to debug a number of issues happening with Podman, I would
have liked to ask users to share a debug log by passing --debug as
additional option, but pasta refuses --quiet (always passed by Podman)
and --debug at the same time.
On top of this, Podman lets users specify other pasta options in its
containers.conf(5) file, as well as on the command line.
The options from the configuration files are appended together with
the ones from the command line, which makes it impossible for users to
override options from the configuration file, if duplicated options
are refused, unless Podman takes care of sorting them, which is
clearly not sustainable.
For --debug and --trace, somebody took care of this on Podman side at:
https://github.com/containers/common/pull/2052
but this doesn't fix the issue with other options, and we'll have
anyway older versions of Podman around, too.
I think there's some value in telling users about duplicated or
conflicting options, because that might reveal issues in integrations
or accidental misconfigurations, but by now I'm fairly convinced that
the downsides outweigh this.
Drop checks about duplicate options and mutually exclusive ones. In
some cases, we need to also undo a couple of initialisations caused
by earlier options, but this looks like a simplification, overall.
Notable exception: --stderr still conflicts with --log-file, because
users might have the expectation that they don't actually conflict.
But they do conflict in the existing implementation, so it's safer
to make sure that the users notice that.
