BPF filters can access skbuff fields that are out of scope for existing iptables rules, allow more expressive logic, and on platforms with JIT support can even be faster. I have a corresponding iptables patch that takes `tcpdump -ddd` output, as used in the examples below. The two parts communicate using a variable length structure. This is similar to ebt_among, but new for iptables. Verified functionality by inserting an ip source filter on chain INPUT and an ip dest filter on chain OUTPUT and noting that ping failed while a rule was active: iptables -v -A INPUT -m bpf --bytecode '4,32 0 0 12,21 0 1 $SADDR,6 0 0 96,6 0 0 0,' -j DROP iptables -v -A OUTPUT -m bpf --bytecode '4,32 0 0 16,21 0 1 $DADDR,6 0 0 96,6 0 0 0,' -j DROP Evaluated throughput by running netperf TCP_STREAM over loopback on x86_64. I expected the BPF filter to outperform hardcoded iptables filters when replacing multiple matches with a single bpf match, but even a single comparison to u32 appears to do better. Relative to the benchmark with no filter applied, rate with 100 BPF filters dropped to 81%. With 100 U32 filters it dropped to 55%. The difference sounds excessive to me, but was consistent on my hardware. Commands used: for i in `seq 100`; do iptables -A OUTPUT -m bpf --bytecode '4,48 0 0 9,21 0 1 20,6 0 0 96,6 0 0 0,' -j DROP; done for i in `seq 3`; do netperf -t TCP_STREAM -I 99 -H localhost; done iptables -F OUTPUT for i in `seq 100`; do iptables -A OUTPUT -m u32 --u32 '6&0xFF=0x20' -j DROP; done for i in `seq 3`; do netperf -t TCP_STREAM -I 99 -H localhost; done FYI: perf top [bpf] 33.94% [kernel] [k] copy_user_generic_string 8.92% [kernel] [k] sk_run_filter 7.77% [ip_tables] [k] ipt_do_table [u32] 22.63% [kernel] [k] copy_user_generic_string 14.46% [kernel] [k] memcpy 9.19% [ip_tables] [k] ipt_do_table 8.47% [xt_u32] [k] u32_mt 5.32% [kernel] [k] skb_copy_bits The big difference appears to be in memory copying. I have not looked into u32, so cannot explain this right now. More interestingly, at higher rate, sk_run_filter appears to use as many cycles as u32_mt (both traces have roughly the same number of events). One caveat: to work independent of device link layer, the filter expects DLT_RAW style BPF programs, i.e., those that expect the packet to start at the IP layer. --- include/linux/netfilter/xt_bpf.h | 17 +++++++ net/netfilter/Kconfig | 9 ++++ net/netfilter/Makefile | 1 + net/netfilter/x_tables.c | 5 +- net/netfilter/xt_bpf.c | 88 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ 5 files changed, 118 insertions(+), 2 deletions(-) create mode 100644 include/linux/netfilter/xt_bpf.h create mode 100644 net/netfilter/xt_bpf.c diff --git a/include/linux/netfilter/xt_bpf.h b/include/linux/netfilter/xt_bpf.h new file mode 100644 index 0000000..23502c0 --- /dev/null +++ b/include/linux/netfilter/xt_bpf.h @@ -0,0 +1,17 @@ +#ifndef _XT_BPF_H +#define _XT_BPF_H + +#include +#include + +struct xt_bpf_info { + __u16 bpf_program_num_elem; + + /* only used in kernel */ + struct sk_filter *filter __attribute__((aligned(8))); + + /* variable size, based on program_num_elem */ + struct sock_filter bpf_program[0]; +}; + +#endif /*_XT_BPF_H */ diff --git a/net/netfilter/Kconfig b/net/netfilter/Kconfig index c9739c6..c7cc0b8 100644 --- a/net/netfilter/Kconfig +++ b/net/netfilter/Kconfig @@ -798,6 +798,15 @@ config NETFILTER_XT_MATCH_ADDRTYPE If you want to compile it as a module, say M here and read .
