In 9fb9cbb108 ("[NETFILTER]: Add nf_conntrack subsystem.") the new
generic nf_conntrack was introduced, and it came to supersede the old
ip_conntrack.
This change updates (some) of the obsolete comments referring to old
file/function names of the ip_conntrack mechanism, as well as removes a
few self-referencing comments that we shouldn't maintain anymore.
I did not update any comments referring to historical actions (e.g,
comments like "this file was derived from ..." were left untouched, even
if the referenced file is no longer here).

Since v5.1-rc1, some types of packets do not get unreachable reply with the
following iptables setting. Fox example,
$ iptables -A INPUT -p icmp --icmp-type 8 -j REJECT
$ ping 127.0.0.1 -c 1
PING 127.0.0.1 (127.0.0.1) 56(84) bytes of data.
— 127.0.0.1 ping statistics —
1 packets transmitted, 0 received, 100% packet loss, time 0ms
We should have got the following reply from command line, but we did not.
From 127.0.0.1 icmp_seq=1 Destination Port Unreachable
Yi Zhao reported it and narrowed it down to:
7fc3822536 ("netfilter: reject: skip csum verification for protocols that don't support it"),
This is because nf_ip_checksum still expects pseudo-header protocol type 0 for
packets that are of neither TCP or UDP, and thus ICMP packets are mistakenly
treated as TCP/UDP.
This patch corrects the conditions in nf_ip_checksum and all other places that
still call it with protocol 0.
Fixes: 7fc3822536 ("netfilter: reject: skip csum verification for protocols that don't support it")

The issue lies in the filtering of ICMP and ICMPv6 errors that include an
inner IP datagram.
For these packets, icmp_error_message() extract the ICMP error and inner
layer to search of a known state.
If a state is found the packet is tagged as related (IP_CT_RELATED).
The problem is that there is no correlation check between the inner and
outer layer of the packet.
So one can encapsulate an error with an inner layer matching a known state,
while its outer layer is directed to a filtered host.
In this case the whole packet will be tagged as related.
This has various implications from a rule bypass (if a rule to related
trafic is allow), to a known state oracle.
Unfortunately, we could not find a real statement in a RFC on how this case
should be filtered.
The closest we found is RFC5927 (Section 4.3) but it is not very clear.
A possible fix would be to check that the inner IP source is the same than
the outer destination.
We believed this kind of attack was not documented yet, so we started to
write a blog post about it.
You can find it attached to this mail (sorry for the extract quality).
It contains more technical details, PoC and discussion about the identified
behavior.
We discovered later that
https://www.gont.com.ar/papers/filtering-of-icmp-error-messages.pdf
described a similar attack concept in 2004 but without the stateful
filtering in mind.
-----
This implements above suggested fix:
In icmp(v6) error handler, take outer destination address, then pass
that into the common function that does the "related" association.
After obtaining the nf_conn of the matching inner-headers connection,
check that the destination address of the opposite direction tuple
is the same as the outer address and only set RELATED if thats the case.

Due to historical reasons, all l4 trackers register their own
sysctls.
This leads to copy&pasted boilerplate code, that does exactly same
thing, just with different data structure.
Place all of this in a single file.
This allows to remove the various ctl_table pointers from the ct_netns
structure and reduces overall code size.

l4 protocols are demuxed by l3num, l4num pair.
However, almost all l4 trackers are l3 agnostic.
Only exceptions are:
- gre, icmp (ipv4 only)
- icmpv6 (ipv6 only)
This commit gets rid of the l3 mapping, l4 trackers can now be looked up
by their IPPROTO_XXX value alone, which gets rid of the additional l3
indirection.
For icmp, ipcmp6 and gre, add a check on state->pf and
return -NF_ACCEPT in case we're asked to track e.g. icmpv6-in-ipv4,
this seems more fitting than using the generic tracker.
Additionally we can kill the 2nd l4proto definitions that were needed
for v4/v6 split -- they are now the same so we can use single l4proto
struct for each protocol, rather than two.
The EXPORT_SYMBOLs can be removed as all these object files are
part of nf_conntrack with no external references.

icmp(v6) are the only two layer four protocols that need the error()

Only two protocols need the ->error() function: icmp and icmpv6.
This is because icmp error mssages might be RELATED to an existing
connection (e.g. PMTUD, port unreachable and the like), and their
->error() handlers do this.
The error callback is already optional, so remove it for
udp and call them from ->packet() instead.
As the error() callback can call checksum functions that write to
skb->csum*, the const qualifier has to be removed as well.

->new() gets invoked after ->error() and before ->packet() if
a conntrack lookup has found no result for the tuple.
We can fold it into ->packet() -- the packet() implementations
can check if the conntrack is confirmed (new) or not
(already in hash).
If its unconfirmed, the conntrack isn't in the hash yet so current
skb created a new conntrack entry.
Only relevant side effect -- if packet() doesn't return NF_ACCEPT
but -NF_ACCEPT (or drop), while the conntrack was just created,
then the newly allocated conntrack is freed right away, rather than not
created in the first place.

This unifies ipv4 and ipv6 protocol trackers and removes the l3proto
abstraction.
This gets rid of all l3proto indirect calls and the need to do
a lookup on the function to call for l3 demux.
It increases module size by only a small amount (12kbyte), so this reduces
size because nf_conntrack.ko is useless without either nf_conntrack_ipv4
or nf_conntrack_ipv6 module.
