Miller, Jamal Hadi Salim, Cong Wang, Jiri Pirko, dev, linux-kernel The openvswitch module shares a common conntrack and NAT infrastructure exposed via netfilter. It's possible that a packet needs both SNAT and DNAT manipulation, due to e.g. tuple collision. Netfilter can support this because it runs through the NAT table twice - once on ingress and again after egress. The openvswitch module doesn't have such capability. Like netfilter hook infrastructure, we should run through NAT twice to keep the symmetry. Fixes: 05752523e565 ("openvswitch: Interface with NAT.")

It reproduces with OpenShift 3.10, which makes forward direction packets between namespaces pump through a tun device that applies NAT rules to rewrite the dest. Limit the namespace number of ephemeral sockets using by editing net.ipv4.ip_local_port_range in the client namespace, and connect to the server namespace. That's the mechanism for OvS. But for TC I guess there wouldn't be anything convenient avaiable. I'll try to script up something that doesn't use openshift. > > Thanks, > > Paul. ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 17+ messages in thread

I can rewrite the whole function, but I wanted to start with the smaller fix that worked. I also think it needs more testing then (since it's something of a rewrite of the function). I guess it's not too important - do you think it gives any readability to do it this way?

Even the kernel module won't allow it, so this really will only happen when the connection gets established via the nf_hook path, and then needs to be processed via openvswitch. In those cases, the tuple lookup should be correct, because the nf_nat table should contain the correct tuple data, and the skbuff should have the correct tuples in the packet data to begin with. > Inverting the tuple to find the conntrack doesn't work anymore with double NAT. > Am I wrong? I think since the packet was double-NAT on the way out (via nf_hook path), then the incoming reply will have the correct NAT tuples and the lookup will happen just fine.
