90e83d50a9 Don't take "our" MAC address from the host
When sending frames to the guest over the tap link, we need a source MAC
address.  Currently we take that from the MAC address of the main interface
on the host, but that doesn't actually make much sense:
 * We can't preserve the real MAC address of packets from anywhere
   external so there's no transparency case here
 * In fact, it's confusingly different from how we handle IP addresses:
   whereas we give the guest the same IP as the host, we're making the
   host's MAC the one MAC that the guest *can't* use for itself.
 * We already need a fallback case if the host doesn't have an Ethernet
   like MAC (e.g. if it's connected via a point to point interface, such
   as a wireguard VPN).

Change to just just use an arbitrary fixed MAC address - I've picked
9a:55:9a:55:9a:55.  It's simpler and has the small advantage of making
the fact that passt/pasta is in use typically obvious from guest side
packet dumps.  This can still, of course, be overridden with the -M option.

356de97e43 fwd: Split notion of "our tap address" from gateway for IPv4
ip4.gw conflates 3 conceptually different things, which (for now) have the
same value:
  1. The router/gateway address as seen by the guest
  2. An address to NAT to the host with --no-map-gw isn't specified
  3. An address to use as source when nothing else makes sense

Case 3 occurs in two situations:

a) for our DHCP responses - since they come from passt internally there's
   no naturally meaningful address for them to come from
b) for forwarded connections coming from an address that isn't guest
   accessible (localhost or the guest's own address).

(b) occurs even with --no-map-gw, and the expected behaviour of forwarding
local connections requires it.

For IPv6 role (3) is now taken by ip6.our_tap_ll (which usually has the
same value as ip6.gw).  For future flexibility we may want to make this
"address of last resort" different from the gateway address, so split them
logically for IPv4 as well.

Specifically, add a new ip4.our_tap_addr field for the address with this
role, and initialise it to ip4.gw for now.  Unlike IPv6 where we can always
get a link-local address, we might not be able to get a (non 0.0.0.0)
address here (e.g. if the host is disconnected or only has a point to point
link with no gateway address).  In that case we have to disable forwarding
of inbound connections with guest-inaccessible source addresses.

4d8dd1fbe7 fwd: Helpers to clarify what host addresses aren't guest accessible
We usually avoid NAT, but in a few cases we need to apply address
translations.  For inbound connections that happens for addresses which
make sense to the host but are either inaccessible, or mean a different
location from the guest's point of view.

Add some helper functions to determine such addresses, and use them in
fwd_nat_from_host().  In doing so clarify some of the reasons for the
logic.  We'll also have further use for these helpers in future.

While we're there fix one unneccessary inconsistency between IPv4 and IPv6.
We always translated the guest's observed address, but for IPv4 we didn't
translate the guest's assigned address, whereas for IPv6 we did.  Change
this to translate both in all cases for consistency.

c9f0ec3227 util: Correct sock_l4() binding for link local addresses
When binding an IPv6 socket in sock_l4() we need to supply a scope id
if the address is link-local.  We check for this by comparing the
given address to c->ip6.addr_ll.  This is correct only by accident:
while c->ip6.addr_ll is typically set to the host interface's link
local address, the actual purpose of it is to provide a link local
address for passt's private use on the tap interface.

Instead set the scope id for any link-local address we're binding to.
We're going to need something and this is what makes sense for sockets
on the host.  It doesn't make sense for PIF_SPLICE sockets, but those
should always have loopback, not link-local addresses.

for connections from addresses the guest can't access.

0b25cac94e conf: Treat --dns addresses as guest visible addresses
Although it's not 100% explicit in the man page, addresses given to
the --dns option are intended to be addresses as seen by the guest.
This differs from addresses taken from the host's /etc/resolv.conf,
which must be translated to guest accessible versions in some cases.

Our implementation is currently inconsistent on this: when using
--dns-forward, you must usually also give --dns with the matching address,
which is meaningful only in the guest's address view.  However if you give
--dns with a loopback addres, it will be translated like a host view
address.

Move the remapping logic for DNS addresses out of add_dns4() and add_dns6()
into add_dns_resolv() so that it is only applied for host nameserver
addresses, not for nameservers given explicitly with --dns.

a6066f4e27 conf: Correct setting of dns_match address in add_dns6()
add_dns6() (but not add_dns4()) has a bug setting dns_match: it sets it to
the given address, rather than the gateway address.  This is doubly wrong:
 - We've just established the given address is a host loopback address
   the guest can't access
 - We've just set ip6.dns[] to tell the guest to use the gateway address,
   so it won't use the dns_match address we're setting

Correct this to use the gateway address, like IPv4.

f4e9f26480 pasta: Disable neighbour solicitations on device up to prevent DAD
As soon as we the kernel notifier for IPv6 address configuration
(addrconf_notify()) sees that we bring the target interface up
(NETDEV_UP), it will schedule duplicate address detection, so, by
itself, setting the nodad flag later is useless, because that won't
stop a detection that's already in progress.

However, if we disable neighbour solicitations with IFF_NOARP (which
is a misnomer for IPv6 interfaces, but there's no possibility of
mixing things up), the notifier will not trigger DAD, because it can't
be done, of course, without neighbour solicitations.

Set IFF_NOARP as we bring up the device, and drop it after we had a
chance to set the nodad attribute on the link.

74e508cf79 netlink, pasta: Disable DAD for link-local addresses on namespace interface
It makes no sense for a container or a guest to try and perform
duplicate address detection for their link-local address, as we'll
anyway not relay neighbour solicitations with an unspecified source
address.

While they perform duplicate address detection, the link-local address
is not usable, which prevents us from bringing up especially
containers and communicate with them right away via IPv6.

This is not enough to prevent DAD and reach the container right away:
we'll need a couple more patches.

As we send NLM_F_REPLACE requests right away, while we still have to
read out other addresses on the same socket, we can't use nl_do():
keep track of the last sequence we sent (last address we changed), and
deal with the answers to those NLM_F_REPLACE requests in a separate
loop, later.

946206437a test: Speed up by cutting on eye candy and performance test duration
We have a number of delays when we switch to new layouts that were
added to make the tests visually easier to follow, together with

Shorten delays in busy loops to 10ms, instead of 100ms, and skip the
one-second fixed delay when we wait for the status of a command.

Cut the duration of throughput and latency tests to one second, down
from ten. Somewhat surprisingly, the results we get are rather
consistent, and not significantly different from what we'd get with
10 seconds.

This, together with Podman's commit 20f3e8909e3a ("test/system:

61c0b0d0f1 flow: Don't crash if guest attempts to connect to port 0
Using a zero port on TCP or UDP is dubious, and we can't really deal with
forwarding such a flow within the constraints of the socket API.  Hence
we ASSERT()ed that we had non-zero ports in flow_hash().

The intention was to make sure that the protocol code sanitizes such ports
before completing a flow entry.  Unfortunately, flow_hash() is also called
on new packets to see if they have an existing flow, so the unsanitized
guest packet can crash passt with the assert.

Correct this by moving the assert from flow_hash() to flow_sidx_hash()
which is only used on entries already in the table, not on unsanitized
data.

add_dns[46]() rely on the gateway address and c->no_map_gw being already

Usually these are called from get_dns() which is well after the addresses
are configured, so that's fine.  However, they can also be called earlier
if an explicit -D command line option is given.  In this case no_map_gw
and/or c->ip[46].gw may not get be initialised properly, leading to this
doing the wrong thing.

Given that pasta supports specifying a command to be executed on the

no ambiguity, we shouldn't eat up options that are not meant for us.

Paul reports, for instance, that with:

  pasta --config-net ip -6 route

-6 is taken by pasta to mean --ipv6-only, and we execute 'ip route'.
That's because getopt_long(), by default, shuffles the argument list
to shift non-option arguments at the end.

Avoid that by adding '+' at the beginning of 'optstring'.

09603cab28 passt, util: Close any open file that the parent might have leaked
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.

a628cb93a7 log: Avoid duplicate calls to logtime()
We use logtime() to get a timestamp for the log in two places:
  - in vlogmsg(), which is used only for debug_print messages
  - in logfile_write() which is only used messages to the log file

These cases are mutually exclusive, so we don't ever print the same message
with different timestamps, but that's not particularly obvious to see.
It's possible future tweaks to logging logic could mean we log to two
different places with different timestamps, which would be confusing.

Refactor to have a single logtime() call in vlogmsg() and use it for all
the places we need it.

2c7558dc43 log: Handle errors from clock_gettime()
clock_gettime() can, theoretically, fail, although it probably won't until
2038 on old 32-bit systems.  Still, it's possible someone could run with
a wildly out of sync clock, or new errors could be added, or it could fail
due to a bug in libc or the kernel.

We don't handle this well.  In the debug_print case in vlogmsg we'll just
ignore the failure, and print a timestamp based on uninitialised garbage.
In logfile_write() we exit early and won't log anything at all, which seems
like a good way to make an already weird situation undebuggable.

Add some helpers to instead handle this by using "<error>" in place of a
timestamp if something goes wrong with clock_gettime().

b91bae1ded log: Correct formatting of timestamps
logtime_fmt_and_arg() is a rather odd macro, producing both a format
string and an argument, which can only be used in quite specific printf()
like formulations.  It also has a significant bug: it tries to display 4
digits after the decimal point (so down to tenths of milliseconds) using
%04i.  But the field width in printf() is always a *minimum* not maximum
field width, so this will not truncate the given value, but will redisplay
the entire tenth-of-milliseconds difference again after the decimal point.

Replace the macro with an snprintf() like function which will format the
timestamp, and use an explicit % to correct the display.

95569e4aa4 util: Some corrections for timespec_diff_us
The comment for timespec_diff_us() claims it will wrap after 2^64µs.  This
is incorrect for two reasons:
  * It returns a long long, which is probably 64-bits, but might not be
  * It returns a signed value, so even if it is 64 bits it will wrap after
    2^63µs

Correct the comment and use an explicitly 64-bit type to avoid that
imprecision.

fbb0c9523e conf, pasta: Make -g and -a skip route/addresses copy for matching IP version only
Paul reports that setting IPv4 address and gateway manually, using
--address and --gateway, causes pasta to fail inserting IPv6 routes
in a setup where multiple, inter-dependent IPv6 routes are present
on the host.

That's because, currently, any -g option implies --no-copy-routes
altogether, and any -a implies --no-copy-addrs.

Limit this implication to the matching IP version, instead, by having
two copies of no_copy_routes and no_copy_addrs in the context
structure, separately for IPv4 and IPv6.

While at it, change them to 'bool': we had them as 'int' because
getopt_long() used to set them directly, but it hasn't been the case
for a while already.

ee36266a55 log, passt: Keep printing to stderr when passt is running in foreground
There are two cases where we want to stop printing to stderr: if it's
closed, and if pasta spawned a shell (and --debug wasn't given).

But if passt is running in foreground, we currently stop to report any
message, even error messages, once we're ready, as reported by
Laurent, because we set the log_runtime flag, which we use to indicate
we're ready, regardless of whether we're running in foreground or not.

Turn that flag (back) to log_stderr, and set it only when we really
want to stop printing to stderr.

3a082c4ecb tcp_splice: Fix side in OUT_WAIT flag setting
If the "from" (input) side for a given transfer is 0, and we can't
complete the write right away, what we need to be waiting for is for
output readiness on side 1, not 0, and the other way around as well.

This causes random transfer failures for local TCP connections,
depending if we ever need to wait for output readiness.

031df332e9 util: Use unsigned (size_t) value for iov length
The "correct" type for the length of an IOV is unclear: writev() and
readv() use an int, but sendmsg() and recvmsg() use a size_t.  Using the
unsigned size_t has some advantages, though, and it makes more sense for
the case of write_remainder.  Using size_t throughout here means we don't
have a signed vs. unsigned comparison, and we don't have to deal with
the case of iov_skip_bytes() returning a value which becomes negative
when assigned to an integer.

f30ed68c52 pasta: Save errno on signal handler entry, restore on return when needed
Ed reported this:

  # Error: pasta failed with exit code 1:
  # Couldn't drop cap 3 from bounding set
  # : No child processes

in a Podman CI run with tests being run in parallel. The error message
itself, by the way, is fixed by commit 1cd773081f ("log: Drop
newlines in the middle of the perror()-like messages"), but how can we
possibly get ECHILD as failure code for prctl()?

Well, we don't, but if we exit early enough, pasta_child_handler()
might run before we're even done with isolation steps, and it calls
waitid(), which sets errno. We need to restore it before returning
from the signal handler (if we return after calling functions that
might set it), as signal-safety(7) also implies:

       Fetching and setting the value of errno is async-signal-safe
       provided that the signal handler saves errno on entry and
       restores its value before returning.

Eventually, we'll probably need to switch to signalfd(2) the day we
want to implement multithreading, but this will do for the moment.
