For clock_gettime(), we shouldn't ignore errors if they happen at

not helpful if we proceed as if nothing happened.
As we're up and running, though, it's probably better to report the
error and use a stale value than to terminate altogether. Make sure
we use a zero value if we don't have a stale one somewhere.

I haven't tested i386 for a long time (after playing with some
openSUSE i586 image a couple of years ago). It turns out that a number
of system calls we actually need were denied by the seccomp filter,
and not even basic functionality works.
Add some system calls that glibc started using with the 64-bit time
("t64") transition, see also:
https://wiki.debian.org/ReleaseGoals/64bit-time
that is: clock_gettime64, timerfd_gettime64, fcntl64, and
recvmmsg_time64.
Add further system calls that are needed regardless of time_t width,
that is, mmap2 (valgrind profile only), _llseek and sigreturn (common
outside x86_64), and socketcall (same as s390x).
I validated this against an almost full run of the test suite, with
just a few selected tests skipped. Fixes needed to run most tests on
i386/i686, and other assorted fixes for tests, are included in
upcoming patches.

If a parent accidentally or due to implementation reasons leaks any
open file, we don't want to have access to them, except for the file
passed via --fd, if any.
This is the case for Podman when Podman's parent leaks files into
Podman: it's not practical for Podman to close unrelated files before
starting pasta, as reported by Paul.
Use close_range(2) to close all open files except for standard streams
and the one from --fd.
Given that parts of conf() depend on other files to be already opened,
such as the epoll file descriptor, we can't easily defer this to a
more convenient point, where --fd was already parsed. Introduce a
minimal, duplicate version of --fd parsing to keep this simple.
As we need to check that the passed --fd option doesn't exceed
INT_MAX, because we'll parse it with strtol() but file descriptor
indices are signed ints (regardless of the arguments close_range()
take), extend the existing check in the actual --fd parsing in conf(),
also rejecting file descriptors numbers that match standard streams,
while at it.

When forwarding a datagram to a socket, we need to find a socket with a
suitable local address to send it. Currently we keep track of such sockets
in an array indexed by local port, but this can't properly handle cases
where we have multiple local addresses in active use.
For "spliced" (socket to socket) cases, improve this by instead opening
a socket specifically for the target side of the flow. We connect() as
well as bind()ing that socket, so that it will only receive the flow's
reply packets, not anything else. We direct datagrams sent via that socket
using the addresses from the flow table, effectively replacing bespoke
addressing logic with the unified logic in fwd.c
When we create the flow, we also take a duplicate of the originating
socket, and use that to deliver reply datagrams back to the origin, again
using addresses from the flow table entry.

Commit f67238aa86 ("passt, log: Call __openlog() earlier, log to

If a log file is configured, vlogmsg() will not call passt_vsyslog(),

prints (which would result from passt_vsyslog() printing to stderr),
we don't call fprintf() from vlogmsg() either.

define an internal logging flag that clearly represents that we're not

The original behaviour of printing messages to standard error by
default when running from a non-interactive terminal was introduced
because the first KubeVirt integration draft used to start passt in
foreground and get messages via standard error.
For development purposes, the system logger was more convenient at
that point, and passt was running from interactive terminals only if
not started by the KubeVirt integration.
This behaviour was introduced by 84a62b79a2 ("passt: Also log to
stderr, don't fork to background if not interactive").
Later, I added command-line options in 1e49d194d0 ("passt, pasta:
Introduce command-line options and port re-mapping") and accidentally
reversed this condition, which wasn't a problem as --stderr could
force printing to standard error anyway (and it was used by KubeVirt).
Nowadays, the KubeVirt integration uses a log file (requested via
libvirt configuration), and the same applies for Podman if one
actually needs to look at runtime logs. There are no use cases left,
as far as I know, where passt runs in foreground in non-interactive
terminals.
Seize the chance to reintroduce some sanity here. If we fork to
background, standard error is closed, so --stderr is useless in that
case.
If we run in foreground, there's no harm in printing messages to
standard error, and that accidentally became the default behaviour
anyway, so --stderr is not needed in that case.
It would be needed for non-interactive terminals, but there are no
use cases, and if there were, let's log to standard error anyway:
the user can always redirect standard error to /dev/null if needed.
Before we're up and running, we need to print to standard error anyway
if something happens, otherwise we can't report failure to start in
any kind of usage, stand-alone or in integrations.
So, make --stderr do nothing, and deprecate it.
While at it, drop a left-over comment about --foreground being the
default only for interactive terminals, because it's not the case
anymore.

fiddly, and potentially expensive: it requires updating the hash table for

system calls to update epoll tags with the new location too.
Implement a new way of managing the flow table that doesn't ever move

first free slot for a new connection, and mitigates the effect of non

This actually introduces a bug which is vanishingly unlikely to hit in

More practically, using different (but overlapping) fields of the

The epoll_ref type includes fields for the IP protocol of a socket, and the
socket fd. However, we already have a few things in the epoll which aren't
protocol sockets, and we may have more in future. Rename these fields to
an abstract "fd type" and file descriptor for more generality.
Similarly, rather than using existing IP protocol numbers for the type,
introduce our own number space. For now these just correspond to the
supported protocols, but we'll expand on that in future.

union epoll_ref has a deeply nested set of structs and unions to let us
subdivide it into the various different fields we want. This means that
referencing elements can involve an awkward long string of intermediate
fields.
Using C11 anonymous structs and unions lets us do this less clumsily.
