Currently, nf_conntrack_max is used to limit the maximum number of
conntrack entries in the conntrack table for every network namespace.
For the VMs and containers that reside in the same namespace,
they share the same conntrack table, and the total # of conntrack entries
for all the VMs and containers are limited by nf_conntrack_max. In this
case, if one of the VM/container abuses the usage the conntrack entries,
it blocks the others from committing valid conntrack entries into the
conntrack table. Even if we can possibly put the VM in different network
namespace, the current nf_conntrack_max configuration is kind of rigid
that we cannot limit different VM/container to have different # conntrack
entries.
To address the aforementioned issue, this patch proposes to have a
fine-grained mechanism that could further limit the # of conntrack entries
per-zone. For example, we can designate different zone to different VM,
and set conntrack limit to each zone. By providing this isolation, a
mis-behaved VM only consumes the conntrack entries in its own zone, and
it will not influence other well-behaved VMs. Moreover, the users can
set various conntrack limit to different zone based on their preference.
The proposed implementation utilizes Netfilter's nf_conncount backend
to count the number of connections in a particular zone. If the number of
connection is above a configured limitation, ovs will return ENOMEM to the
userspace. If userspace does not configure the zone limit, the limit
defaults to zero that is no limitation, which is backward compatible to
the behavior without this patch.
The following high leve APIs are provided to the userspace:
- OVS_CT_LIMIT_CMD_SET:
* set default connection limit for all zones
* set the connection limit for a particular zone
- OVS_CT_LIMIT_CMD_DEL:
* remove the connection limit for a particular zone
- OVS_CT_LIMIT_CMD_GET:
* get the default connection limit for all zones
* get the connection limit for a particular zone

The openvswitch code has gained support for calling into the
nf-nat-ipv4/ipv6 modules, however those can be loadable modules
in a configuration in which openvswitch is built-in, leading
to link errors:
net/built-in.o: In function `__ovs_ct_lookup':
:(.text+0x2cc2c8): undefined reference to `nf_nat_icmp_reply_translation'
:(.text+0x2cc66c): undefined reference to `nf_nat_icmpv6_reply_translation'
The dependency on (!NF_NAT || NF_NAT) prevents similar issues,
but NF_NAT is set to 'y' if any of the symbols selecting
it are built-in, but the link error happens when any of them
are modular.
A second issue is that even if CONFIG_NF_NAT_IPV6 is built-in,
CONFIG_NF_NAT_IPV4 might be completely disabled. This is unlikely
to be useful in practice, but the driver currently only handles
IPv6 being optional.
This patch improves the Kconfig dependency so that openvswitch
cannot be built-in if either of the two other symbols are set
to 'm', and it replaces the incorrect #ifdef in ovs_ct_nat_execute()
with two "if (IS_ENABLED())" checks that should catch all corner
cases also make the code more readable.
The same #ifdef exists ovs_ct_nat_to_attr(), where it does not
cause a link error, but for consistency I'm changing it the same
way.

Expose the kernel connection tracker via OVS. Userspace components can
make use of the CT action to populate the connection state (ct_state)
field for a flow. This state can be subsequently matched.
Exposed connection states are OVS_CS_F_*:
- NEW (0x01) - Beginning of a new connection.
- ESTABLISHED (0x02) - Part of an existing connection.
- RELATED (0x04) - Related to an established connection.
- INVALID (0x20) - Could not track the connection for this packet.
- REPLY_DIR (0x40) - This packet is in the reply direction for the flow.
- TRACKED (0x80) - This packet has been sent through conntrack.
When the CT action is executed by itself, it will send the packet
through the connection tracker and populate the ct_state field with one
or more of the connection state flags above. The CT action will always
set the TRACKED bit.
When the COMMIT flag is passed to the conntrack action, this specifies
that information about the connection should be stored. This allows
subsequent packets for the same (or related) connections to be
correlated with this connection. Sending subsequent packets for the
connection through conntrack allows the connection tracker to consider
the packets as ESTABLISHED, RELATED, and/or REPLY_DIR.
The CT action may optionally take a zone to track the flow within. This
allows connections with the same 5-tuple to be kept logically separate
from connections in other zones. If the zone is specified, then the
"ct_zone" match field will be subsequently populated with the zone id.
IP fragments are handled by transparently assembling them as part of the
CT action. The maximum received unit (MRU) size is tracked so that
refragmentation can occur during output.
IP frag handling contributed by Andy Zhou.

Open vSwitch is a multilayer Ethernet switch targeted at virtualized
environments. In addition to supporting a variety of features
expected in a traditional hardware switch, it enables fine-grained
programmatic extension and flow-based control of the network.
This control is useful in a wide variety of applications but is
particularly important in multi-server virtualization deployments,
which are often characterized by highly dynamic endpoints and the need
to maintain logical abstractions for multiple tenants.
The Open vSwitch datapath provides an in-kernel fast path for packet
forwarding. It is complemented by a userspace daemon, ovs-vswitchd,
which is able to accept configuration from a variety of sources and
translate it into packet processing rules.
See http://openvswitch.org for more information and userspace
utilities.
