Although it's unlikely in practice, the guest could theoretically
reset one TCP connection then immediately start a new one with the
same addressses and ports, such that we get an RST then a SYN in the
same batch of received packets in tcp_tap_handler().
We don't correctly handle that unlikely case, because when we receive
the RST, we discard any remaining packets in the batch so we'd never
see the SYN. This could happen in either tcp_tap_handler() or
tcp_data_from_tap(). Correct that by returning 1, so that the caller
will continue calling tcp_tap_handler() on subsequent packets allowing
us to process any subsequent SYN.

Currently tcp_data_from_tap() is assumed to consume all packets remaining
in the packet pool it is given. However there are some edge cases where
that's not correct. In preparation for fixing those, change it to return
a count of packets consumed and use that in its caller.

>From a practical point of view, when a TCP connection ends, whether by
FIN or by RST, we set the CLOSED event, then some time later we remove the

invalid packets to discard.

Both tcp_data_from_tap() and tcp_tap_handler() call packet_get() to get
the entire L4 packet length, then immediately call it again to check that
the packet is long enough to include a TCP header. The features of
packet_get() let us easily combine these together, we just need to adjust
the length slightly, because we want the value to include the TCP header

In both tap4_handler() and tap6_handler(), once we've sorted incoming l3
packets into "sequences", we then step through all the packets in each TCP
sequence calling tcp_tap_handler(). Or so it appears.
In fact, tcp_tap_handler() doesn't take an index and always looks at packet
0 of the sequence, except when it calls tcp_data_from_tap() to process
data packets. It appears to be written with the idea that the struct pool
is a queue, from which it consumes packets as it processes them, but that's
not how the pool data structure works - they are more like an array of
packets.
We only get away with this, because setup packets for TCP tend to come in
separate batches (because we need to reply in between) and so we only get
a bunch of packets for the same connection together when they're data
packets (tcp_data_from_tap() has its own loop through packets).
Correct this by adding an index parameter to tcp_tap_handler() and altering
the loops in tap.c to step through the pool properly.

tcp_defer_handler() performs a potentially expensive linear scan of the
connection table. So, to mitigate the cost of that we skip if if we're not
under at least moderate pressure: either 30% of available connections or
30% (estimated) of available fds used.
But, the calculation for this has been broken since it was introduced: we
calculate "max_conns" based on c->tcp.conn_count, not TCP_MAX_CONNS,
meaning we only exit early if conn_count is less than 30% of itself, i.e.
never.
If that calculation is "corrected" to be based on TCP_MAX_CONNS, it
completely tanks the TCP CRR times for passt - from ~60ms to >1000ms on my
laptop. My guess is that this is because in the case of many short lived
connections, we're letting the table become much fuller before compacting
it. That means that other places which perform a table scan now have to
do much, much more.
For the time being, simply remove the tests, since they're not doing
anything useful. We can reintroduce them more carefully if we see a need
for them.
This also removes the only user of c->tcp.splice_conn_count, so that can
be removed as well.

The in_epoll boolean is one of only two fields (currently) in the common
structure shared between tap and spliced connections. It seems like it
belongs there, because both tap and spliced connections use it, and it has
roughly the same meaning.
Roughly, however, isn't exactly: which fds this flag says are in the epoll
varies between the two connection types, and are in type specific fields.
So, it's only possible to meaningfully use this value locally in type
specific code anyway.
This common field is going to get in the way of more widespread
generalisation of connection / flow tracking, so move it to separate fields

Because packets sent on the tap interface will always be going to the
guest/namespace, we more-or-less know what address they'll be going to. So
we pre-fill this destination address in our header buffers for IPv4. We
can't do the same for IPv6 because we could need either the global or
link-local address for the guest. In future we're going to want more
flexibility for the destination address, so this pre-filling will get in
the way.
Change the flow so we always fill in the IPv4 destination address for each
packet, rather than prefilling it from proto_update_l2_buf(). In fact for
TCP we already redundantly filled the destination for each packet anyway.

We partially prepopulate IP and TCP header structures including, amongst
other things the destination address, which for IPv4 is always the known
address of the guest/namespace. We partially precompute both the IPv4
header checksum and the TCP checksum based on this.
In future we're going to want more flexibility with controlling the
destination for IPv4 (as we already do for IPv6), so this precomputed value
gets in the way. Therefore remove the IPv4 destination from the
precomputed checksum and fold it into the checksum update when we actually
send a packet.
Doing this means we no longer need to recompute those partial sums when
the destination address changes ({tcp,udp}_update_l2_buf()) and instead
the computation can be moved to compile time. This means while we perform
slightly more computations on each packet, we slightly reduce the amount of
memory we need to access.

In tcp_seq_init() the meaning of "src" and "dst" isn't really clear since
it's used for connections in both directions. However, these values are
just feeding a hash, so as long as we're consistent and include all the
information we want, it doesn't really matter.
Oddly, for the "src" side we supply the (tap side) forwarding address but
the (tap side) endpoint port. This again doesn't really matter, but it's
confusing. So swap this with dstport, so "src" is always forwarding

In a number of places the comments and variable names we use to describe
addresses and ports are ambiguous. It's not sufficient to describe a port
as "tap-facing" or "socket-facing", because on both the tap side and the
socket side there are two ports for the two ends of the connection.
Similarly, "local" and "remote" aren't particularly helpful, because it's
not necessarily clear whether we're talking from the point of view of the
guest/namespace, the host, or passt itself.
This patch makes a number of changes to be more precise about this. It
introduces two new terms in aid of this:
A "forwarding" address (or port) refers to an address which is local
from the point of view of passt itself. That is a source address for
traffic sent by passt, whether it's to the guest via the tap interface
or to a host on the internet via a socket.
The "endpoint" address (or port) is the reverse: a remote address
from passt's point of view, the destination address for traffic sent
by passt.
Between them the "side" (either tap/guest-facing or sock/host-facing)
and forwarding vs. endpoint unambiguously describes which address or
port we're talking about.

the two handlers need essentially entirely different information from the

Since commit cc6d8286d1 ("tcp: Reset ACK_FROM_TAP_DUE flag only as
needed, update timer"), we don't clear ACK_FROM_TAP_DUE whenever we
process an ACK segment, but, more correctly, only if we're really not
waiting for a further ACK segment, that is, only if the acknowledged
sequence matches what we sent.
In the new function implementing this, tcp_update_seqack_from_tap(),
we also reset the retransmission counter and store the updated ACK
sequence. Both should be done iff forward progress is acknowledged,
implied by the fact that the new ACK sequence is greater than the
one we previously stored.
At that point, it looked natural to also include the statements that
clear and set the ACK_FROM_TAP_DUE flag inside the same conditional
block: if we're not making forward progress, the need for an ACK, or
lack thereof, should remain unchanged.
There might be cases where this isn't true, though: without the
previous commit 4e73e9bd65 ("tcp: Don't special case the handling
of the ack of a syn"), this would happen if a tap-side client
initiated a connection, and the server didn't send any data.
At that point we would never, in the established state of the
connection, call tcp_update_seqack_from_tap() with reported forward
progress.
That issue itself is fixed by the previous commit, now, but clearing
ACK_FROM_TAP_DUE only on ACK sequence progress doesn't really follow
any logic.
Clear the ACK_FROM_TAP_DUE flag regardless of reported forward
progress. If we clear it when it's already unset, conn_flag() will do
nothing with it.
This doesn't fix any known functional issue, rather a conceptual one.

TCP treats the SYN packets as though they occupied 1 byte in the logical
data stream described by the sequence numbers. That is, the very first ACK
(or SYN-ACK) each side sends should acknowledge a sequence number one
greater than the initial sequence number given in the SYN or SYN-ACK it's
responding to.
In passt we were tracking that by advancing conn->seq_to_tap by one when
we send a SYN or SYN-ACK (in tcp_send_flag()). However, we also
initialized conn->seq_ack_from_tap, representing the acks we've already
seen from the tap side, to ISN+1, meaning we treated it has having
acknowledged the SYN before it actually did.
There were apparently reasons for this in earlier versions, but it causes
problems now. Because of this when we actually did receive the initial ACK
or SYN-ACK, we wouldn't see the acknoweldged serial number as advancing,
and so wouldn't clear the ACK_FROM_TAP_DUE flag.
In most cases we'd get away because subsequent packets would clear the
flag. However if one (or both) sides didn't send any data, the other side
would (correctly) keep sending ISN+1 as the acknowledged sequence number,
meaning we would never clear the ACK_FROM_TAP_DUE flag. That would mean
we'd treat the connection as if we needed to retransmit (although we had
0 bytes to retransmit), and eventaully (after around 30s) reset the
connection due to too many retransmits. Specifically this could cause the
iperf3 throughput tests in the testsuite to fail if set for a long enough
test period.
Correct this by initializing conn->seq_ack_from_tap to the ISN and only
advancing it when we actually get the first ACK (or SYN-ACK).

This is mostly symmetric with commit cc6d8286d1 ("tcp: Reset
ACK_FROM_TAP_DUE flag only as needed, update timer"): we shouldn't
reset the ACK_TO_TAP_DUE flag on any inbound ACK segment, but only
once we acknowledge everything we received from the guest or the
container.
If we don't, a client might unnecessarily hold off further data,
especially during slow start, and in general we won't converge to the
usable bandwidth.
This is very visible especially with traffic tests on links with
non-negligible latency, such as in the reported issue. There, a
public iperf3 server sometimes aborts the test due do what appears to
be a low iperf3's --rcv-timeout (probably less than a second). Even
if this doesn't happen, the throughput will converge to a fraction of
the usable bandwidth.
Clear ACK_TO_TAP_DUE if we acknowledged everything, set it if we
didn't, and reschedule the timer in case the flag is still set as the
timer expires.
While at it, decrease the ACK timer interval to 10ms.
A 50ms interval is short enough for any bandwidth-delay product I had
in mind (local connections, or non-local connections with limited
bandwidth), but here I am, testing 1gbps transfers to a peer with
100ms RTT.
Indeed, we could eventually make the timer interval dependent on the
current window and estimated bandwidth-delay product, but at least
for the moment being, 10ms should be long enough to avoid any
measurable syscall overhead, yet usable for any real-world
application.

Tom reports that a pattern of repated ~1 MiB chunks downloads over
NNTP over TLS, on Podman 4.4 using pasta as network back-end, results
in pasta taking one full CPU thread after a while, and the download
never succeeds.
On that setup, we end up re-sending the same frame over and over,
with a consistent 65 534 bytes size, and never get an
acknowledgement from the tap-side client. This only happens for the
default MTU value (65 520 bytes) or for values that are slightly
smaller than that (down to 64 499 bytes).
We hit this condition because the MSS value we use in
tcp_data_from_sock(), only in pasta mode, is simply clamped to
USHRT_MAX, and not to the actual size of the buffers we pre-cooked
for sending, which is a bit less than that.
It looks like we got away with it until commit 0fb7b2b908 ("tap:
Use different io vector bases depending on tap type") fixed the
setting of iov_len.
Luckily, since it's pasta, we're queueing up to two frames at a time,
so the worst that can happen is a badly segmented TCP stream: we
always have some space at the tail of the buffer.
Clamp the MSS value to the appropriate maximum given by struct
tcp{4,6}_buf_data_t, no matter if we're running in pasta or passt
mode.
While at it, fix the comments to those structs to reflect the current
struct size. This is not really relevant for any further calculation
or consideration, but it's convenient to know while debugging this
kind of issues.

I didn't notice earlier: libslirp (and slirp4netns) supports binding
outbound sockets to specific IPv4 and IPv6 addresses, to force the
source addresse selection. If we want to claim feature parity, we
should implement that as well.
Further, Podman supports specifying outbound interfaces as well, but
this is simply done by resolving the primary address for an interface
when the network back-end is started. However, since kernel version
5.7, commit c427bfec18f2 ("net: core: enable SO_BINDTODEVICE for
non-root users"), we can actually bind to a specific interface name,
which doesn't need to be validated in advance.
Implement -o / --outbound ADDR to bind to IPv4 and IPv6 addresses,
and --outbound-if4 and --outbound-if6 to bind IPv4 and IPv6 sockets
to given interfaces.
Given that it probably makes little sense to select addresses and
routes from interfaces different than the ones given for outbound
sockets, also assign those as "template" interfaces, by default,
unless explicitly overridden by '-i'.
For ICMP and UDP, we call sock_l4() to open outbound sockets, as we
already needed to bind to given ports or echo identifiers, and we
can bind() a socket only once: there, pass address (if any) and
interface (if any) for the existing bind() and setsockopt() calls.
For TCP, in general, we wouldn't otherwise bind sockets. Add a
specific helper to do that.
For UDP outbound sockets, we need to know if the final destination
of the socket is a loopback address, before we decide whether it
makes sense to bind the socket at all: move the block mangling the
address destination before the creation of the socket in the IPv4
path. This was already the case for the IPv6 path.

and '-flto -O2': some stores affecting the input data to siphash_20b()
were omitted altogether, and tcp_hash() wouldn't get the correct hash

Digging further into this revealed that, at least according to gcc's
interpretation of C99 aliasing rules, passing pointers to functions
with different types compared to the effective type of the object
(for example, a uint8_t pointer to an anonymous struct, as it happens
in tcp_hash()), doesn't guarantee that stores are not reordered
across the function call.
This means that, in general, our checksum and hash functions might
not see parts of input data that was intended to be provided by
callers.
Not even switching from uint8_t to character types, which should be
appropriate here, according to C99 (ISO/IEC 9899, TC3, draft N1256),
section 6.5, "Expressions", paragraph 7:
An object shall have its stored value accessed only by an lvalue
expression that has one of the following types:

does the trick. I guess this is also subject to interpretation:
casting passed pointers to character types, and then using those as
different types, might still violate (dubious) aliasing rules.
Disable gcc strict aliasing rules for potentially affected functions,
which, in turn, disables gcc's Type-Based Alias Analysis (TBAA)
optimisations based on those function arguments.

When creating a new spliced connection, we need to get a socket in the
other ns from the originating one. To avoid excessive ns switches we
usually get these from a pool refilled on a timer. However, if the pool
runs out we need a fallback. Currently that's done by passing -1 as the
socket to tcp_splice_connnect() and running it in the target ns.
This means that tcp_splice_connect() itself needs to have different cases
depending on whether it's given an existing socket or not, which is
a separate concern from what it's mostly doing. We change it to require
a suitable open socket to be passed in, and ensuring in the caller that we
have one.
This requires adding the fallback paths to the caller, tcp_splice_new().
We use slightly different approaches for a socket in the init ns versus the
guest ns.
This also means that we no longer need to run tcp_splice_connect() itself
in the guest ns, which allows us to remove a bunch of boilerplate code.

David reports that TCP transfers might stall, especially with smaller
socket buffer sizes, because we reset the ACK_FROM_TAP_DUE flag, in
tcp_tap_handler(), whenever we receive an ACK segment, regardless of
its sequence number and the fact that we might still be waiting for
one. This way, we might fail to re-transmit frames on ACK timeouts.
We need, instead, to:
- indicate with the @retrans field only re-transmissions for the same
data sequences. If we make progress, it should be reset, given that
it's used to abort a connection when we exceed a given number of
re-transmissions for the same data
- unset the ACK_FROM_TAP_DUE flag if and only if the acknowledged
sequence is the same as the last one we sent, as suggested by David
- keep it set otherwise, if progress was done but not all the data we
sent was acknowledged, and update the expiration of the ACK timeout
Add a new helper for these purposes, tcp_update_seqack_from_tap().
To extend the ACK timeout, the new helper sets the ACK_FROM_TAP_DUE
flag, even if it was already set, and conn_flag_do() triggers a timer
update. This part should be revisited at a later time, because,
strictly speaking, ACK_FROM_TAP_DUE isn't a flag anymore. One
possibility might be to introduce another connection attribute for
events affecting timer deadlines.

However, in future we want to allow handling IPv4 connectons through IPv6

initialisation functions to take AF_UNSPEC meaning "any enabled
IP version", but I forgot to add checks back for the "enabled"
part.
Reported by Paul: on a host without default IPv6 route, but IPv6
enabled, connect, using IPv6, to a port handled by pasta, which
tries to send data to a tap device without initialised buffers
for that IP version and exits because the resulting write() fails.
Simpler way to reproduce: pasta -6 and inbound IPv4 connection, or
pasta -4 and inbound IPv6 connection.

We recently corrected some errors handling the endianness of IPv4
addresses. These are very easy errors to make since although we mostly
store them in network endianness, we sometimes need to manipulate them in
host endianness.
To reduce the chances of making such mistakes again, change to always using
a (struct in_addr) instead of a bare in_addr_t or uint32_t to store network
endian addresses. This makes it harder to accidentally do arithmetic or
comparisons on such addresses as if they were host endian.
We introduce a number of IN4_IS_ADDR_*() helpers to make it easier to
directly work with struct in_addr values. This has the additional benefit
of making the IPv4 and IPv6 paths more visually similar.

If the user specifies an explicit loopback address for a port
binding, we're going to use that address for the 'tap' socket, and
the same exact address for the 'spliced' socket (because those are,
by definition, only bound to loopback addresses).
This means that the second binding will fail, and, unexpectedly, the
port is forwarded, but via tap device, which means the source address
in the namespace won't be a loopback address.
Make it explicit under which conditions we're creating which kind of
socket, by refactoring tcp_sock_init() into two separate functions
for IPv4 and IPv6 and gathering those conditions at the beginning.
Also, don't create spliced sockets if the user specifies explicitly
a non-loopback address, those are harmless but not desired either.

In pasta mode, when we receive a new inbound connection, we need to
select a socket that was created in the namespace to proceed and
connect() it to its final destination.
The existing condition might pick a wrong socket, though, if the
destination port is remapped, because we'll check the bitmap of
inbound ports using the remapped port (stored in the epoll reference)
as index, and not the original port.
Instead of using the port bitmap for this purpose, store this
information in the epoll reference itself, by adding a new 'outbound'
bit, that's set if the listening socket was created the namespace,
and unset otherwise.
Then, use this bit to pick a socket on the right side.

Port numbers (for both TCP and UDP) are 16-bit, and so fit exactly into a
'short'. USHRT_MAX is therefore the maximum port number and this is widely
used in the code. Unfortunately, a lot of those places don't actually
want the maximum port number (USHRT_MAX == 65535), they want the total
number of ports (65536). This leads to a number of potentially nasty
consequences:
* We have buffer overruns on the port_fwd::delta array if we try to use
port 65535
* We have similar potential overruns for the tcp_sock_* arrays
* Interestingly udp_act had the correct size, but we can calculate it in
a more direct manner
* We have a logical overrun of the ports bitmap as well, although it will
just use an unused bit in the last byte so isnt harmful
* Many loops don't consider port 65535 (which does mitigate some but not
all of the buffer overruns above)
* In udp_invert_portmap() we incorrectly compute the reverse port
translation for return packets
Correct all these by using a new NUM_PORTS defined explicitly for this
purpose.

Port numbers are unsigned values, but we're storing them in (signed) int
variables in some places. This isn't actually harmful, because int is
large enough to hold the entire range of ports. However in places we don't
want to use an in_port_t (usually to avoid overflow on the last iteration
of a loop) it makes more conceptual sense to use an unsigned int. This will
also avoid some problems with later cleanups.

The configuration for how to forward ports in and out of the guest/ns is
divided between several different variables. For each connect direction
and protocol we have a mode in the udp/tcp context structure, a bitmap
of which ports to forward also in the context structure and an array of
deltas to apply if the outward facing and inward facing port numbers are
different. This last is a separate global variable, rather than being in
the context structure, for no particular reason. UDP also requires an
additional array which has the reverse mapping used for return packets.
Consolidate these into a re-used substructure in the context structure.

enum conf_port_type is local to conf.c and is used to track the port
forwarding mode during configuration. We don't keep it around in the
context structure, however the 'init_detect_ports' and 'ns_detect_ports'
fields in the context are based solely on this. Rather than changing
encoding, just include the forwarding mode into the context structure.
Move the type definition to a new port_fwd.h, which is kind of trivial at
the moment but will have more stuff later.
While we're there, "conf_port_type" doesn't really convey that this enum is
describing how port forwarding is configured. Rename it to port_fwd_mode.
The variables (now fields) of this type also have mildly confusing names
since it's not immediately obvious whether 'ns' and 'init' refer to the
source or destination of the packets. Use "in" (host to guest / init to
ns) and "out" (guest to host / ns to init) instead.
This has the added bonus that we no longer have locals 'udp_init' and
'tcp_init' which shadow global functions.
In addition, add a typedef 'port_fwd_map' for a bitmap of each port number,
which is used in several places.

The context structure contains a batch of fields specific to IPv4 and to

After recent changes, conf_ip() now has essentially entirely disjoint paths
for IPv4 and IPv6 configuration. So, it's cleaner to split them out into
different functions conf_ip4() and conf_ip6().
Splitting these out also lets us make the interface a bit nicer, having
them return success or failure directly, rather than manipulating c->v4
and c->v6 to indicate success/failure of the two versions.
Since these functions may also initialize the interface index for each
protocol, it turns out we can then drop c->v4 and c->v6 entirely, replacing
tests on those with tests on whether c->ifi4 or c->ifi6 is non-zero (since
a 0 interface index is never valid).

It's quite plausible for a host to have both IPv4 and IPv6 connectivity,
but only via different interfaces. For example, this will happen in the
case that IPv6 connectivity is via a tunnel (e.g. 6in4 or 6rd). It would
also happen in the case that IPv4 access is via a tunnel on an otherwise
IPv6 only local network, which is a setup that might become more common in
the post IPv4 address exhaustion world.
In turns out there's no real need for passt/pasta to get its IPv4 and IPv6
connectivity via the same interface, so we can handle this situation fairly
easily. Change the core to allow eparate external interfaces for IPv4 and
IPv6. We don't actually set these separately for now.

Implement a packet abstraction providing boundary and size checks
based on packet descriptors: packets stored in a buffer can be queued
into a pool (without storage of its own), and data can be retrieved

Checks ensure data is not read outside the boundaries of buffer and
descriptors, and that packets added to a pool are within the buffer
range with valid offset and indices.
This implies a wider rework: usage of the "queueing" part of the
abstraction mostly affects tap_handler_{passt,pasta}() functions and
their callees, while the "fetching" part affects all the guest or tap

In pasta mode, when we get data from sockets and write it as single
frames to the tap device, we batch receive operations considerably,
and then (conceptually) split the data in many smaller writes.
It looked like an obvious choice, but performance is actually better
if we receive data in many small frame-sized recvmsg()/recvmmsg().
The syscall overhead with the previous behaviour, observed by perf,
comes predominantly from write operations, but receiving data in

To reach (at least) a conceptually equivalent security level as
implemented by --enable-sandbox in slirp4netns, we need to create a
new mount namespace and pivot_root() into a new (empty) mountpoint, so
that passt and pasta can't access any filesystem resource after
initialisation.
While at it, also detach IPC, PID (only for passt, to prevent
vulnerabilities based on the knowledge of a target PID), and UTS
namespaces.
With this approach, if we apply the seccomp filters right after the
configuration step, the number of allowed syscalls grows further. To
prevent this, defer the application of seccomp policies after the
initialisation phase, before the main loop, that's where we expect bad
things to happen, potentially. This way, we get back to 22 allowed
syscalls for passt and 34 for pasta, on x86_64.
While at it, move #syscalls notes to specific code paths wherever it
conceptually makes sense.
We have to open all the file handles we'll ever need before
sandboxing:
- the packet capture file can only be opened once, drop instance
numbers from the default path and use the (pre-sandbox) PID instead
- /proc/net/tcp{,v6} and /proc/net/udp{,v6}, for automatic detection
of bound ports in pasta mode, are now opened only once, before
sandboxing, and their handles are stored in the execution context
- the UNIX domain socket for passt is also bound only once, before
sandboxing: to reject clients after the first one, instead of
closing the listening socket, keep it open, accept and immediately
discard new connection if we already have a valid one
Clarify the (unchanged) behaviour for --netns-only in the man page.
To actually make passt and pasta processes run in a separate PID
namespace, we need to unshare(CLONE_NEWPID) before forking to
background (if configured to do so). Introduce a small daemon()
implementation, __daemon(), that additionally saves the PID file
before forking. While running in foreground, the process itself can't
move to a new PID namespace (a process can't change the notion of its
own PID): mention that in the man page.
For some reason, fork() in a detached PID namespace causes SIGTERM
and SIGQUIT to be ignored, even if the handler is still reported as
SIG_DFL: add a signal handler that just exits.
We can now drop most of the pasta_child_handler() implementation,
that took care of terminating all processes running in the same
namespace, if pasta started a shell: the shell itself is now the
init process in that namespace, and all children will terminate
once the init process exits.
Issuing 'echo $$' in a detached PID namespace won't return the
actual namespace PID as seen from the init namespace: adapt
demo and test setup scripts to reflect that.
