nl_link() performs a number of functions: it can bring links up, set MAC
address and MTU and also retrieve the existing MAC. This makes for a small
number of lines of code, but high conceptual complexity: it's quite hard
to follow what's going on both in nl_link() itself and it's also not very
obvious which function its callers are intending to use.
Clarify this, by splitting nl_link() into nl_link_up(), nl_link_set_mac(),
and nl_link_get_mac(). The first brings up a link, optionally setting the
MTU, the others get or set the MAC address.
This fixes an arguable bug in pasta_ns_conf(): it looks as though that was
intended to retrieve the guest MAC whether or not c->pasta_conf_ns is set.
However, it only actually does so in the !c->pasta_conf_ns case: the fact
that we set up==1 means we would only ever set, never get, the MAC in the
nl_link() call in the other path. We get away with this because the MAC
will quickly be discovered once we receive packets on the tap interface.
Still, it's neater to always get the MAC address here.

ns_enter() returns an integer... but it's always zero. If we actually fail
the function doesn't return. Therefore it makes more sense for this to be
a function returning void, and we can remove the cases where we pointlessly
checked its return value.
In addition ns_enter() is usually called from an ephemeral thread created
by NS_CALL(). That means that the exit(EXIT_FAILURE) there usually won't
be reported (since NS_CALL() doesn't wait() for the thread). So, use die()
instead to print out some information in the unlikely event that our
setns() here does fail.

When interface names are specified in forwarding specs, we need to check
the length of the given interface name against the limit of IFNAMSIZ - 1
(15) characters. However, we managed to have 3 separate off-by-one errors
here meaning we only accepted interface names up to 12 characters.
1. At the point of the check 'ifname' was still on the '%' character, not
the first character of the name, meaning we overestimated the length by
one
2. At the point of the check 'spec' had been advanced one character past
the '/' which terminates the interface name, meaning we overestimated
the length by another one
3. We checked if the (miscalculated) length was >= IFNAMSIZ - 1, that is
>= 15, whereas lengths equal to 15 should be accepted.
Correct all 3 errors.

Network interface names must fit in a buffer of IFNAMSIZ bytes, including
the terminating \0. IFNAMSIZ is 16 on Linux, so interface names can be
up to (and including) 15 characters long.
We validate this for the -I option, but we have an off by one error. We
pass (IFNAMSIZ - 1) as the buffer size to snprintf(), but that buffer size
already includes the terminating \0, so this actually truncates the value
to 14 characters. The return value returned from snprintf() however, is
the number of characters that would have been printed *excluding* the
terminating \0, so by comparing it >= IFNAMSIZ - 1 we are giving an error
on names >= 15 characters rather than strictly > 15 characters.

Link-local addresses are not copied: the family is set to AF_UNSPEC,
which means the kernel will ignore them. Same for addresses from a
mismatching address (pre-4.19 kernels without support for
NETLINK_GET_STRICT_CHK).

If we use a template interface without a gateway on the default

of course, we can't map the gateway address to the outer namespace or
host, and that we have no obvious server address or identifier for

Continue, if we have a default route but no default gateway, and

Instead of just fetching the default gateway and configuring a single
equivalent route in the target namespace, on 'pasta --config-net', it
might be desirable in some cases to copy the whole set of routes
corresponding to a given output interface.
For instance, in:
https://github.com/containers/podman/issues/18539
IPv4 Default Route Does Not Propagate to Pasta Containers on Hetzner VPSes
configuring the default gateway won't work without a gateway-less
route (specifying the output interface only), because the default
gateway is, somewhat dubiously, not on the same subnet as the
container.
This is a similar case to the one covered by commit 7656a6f888
("conf: Adjust netmask on mismatch between IPv4 address/netmask and
gateway"), and I'm not exactly proud of that workaround.
We also have:
https://bugs.passt.top/show_bug.cgi?id=49
pasta does not work with tap-style interface
for which, eventually, we should be able to configure a gateway-less
route in the target namespace.
Introduce different operation modes for nl_route(), including a new
NL_DUP one, not exposed yet, which simply parrots back to the kernel
the route dump for a given interface from the outer namespace, fixing
up flags and interface indices on the way, and requesting to add the
same routes in the target namespace, on the interface we manage.
For n routes we want to duplicate, send n identical netlink requests
including the full dump: routes might depend on each other and the
kernel processes RTM_NEWROUTE messages sequentially, not atomically,
and repeating the full dump naturally resolves dependencies without
the need to actually calculate them.
I'm not kidding, it actually works pretty well.

I have no idea why that would be happening; but I'm guessing it has to be
a bug in the cpp implementation in that cppcheck version. In any case,
it's possible to work around this by moving the include of <unistd.h>

I didn't notice earlier: libslirp (and slirp4netns) supports binding
outbound sockets to specific IPv4 and IPv6 addresses, to force the
source addresse selection. If we want to claim feature parity, we
should implement that as well.
Further, Podman supports specifying outbound interfaces as well, but
this is simply done by resolving the primary address for an interface
when the network back-end is started. However, since kernel version
5.7, commit c427bfec18f2 ("net: core: enable SO_BINDTODEVICE for
non-root users"), we can actually bind to a specific interface name,
which doesn't need to be validated in advance.
Implement -o / --outbound ADDR to bind to IPv4 and IPv6 addresses,
and --outbound-if4 and --outbound-if6 to bind IPv4 and IPv6 sockets
to given interfaces.
Given that it probably makes little sense to select addresses and
routes from interfaces different than the ones given for outbound
sockets, also assign those as "template" interfaces, by default,
unless explicitly overridden by '-i'.
For ICMP and UDP, we call sock_l4() to open outbound sockets, as we
already needed to bind to given ports or echo identifiers, and we
can bind() a socket only once: there, pass address (if any) and
interface (if any) for the existing bind() and setsockopt() calls.
For TCP, in general, we wouldn't otherwise bind sockets. Add a
specific helper to do that.
For UDP outbound sockets, we need to know if the final destination
of the socket is a loopback address, before we decide whether it
makes sense to bind the socket at all: move the block mangling the
address destination before the creation of the socket in the IPv4
path. This was already the case for the IPv6 path.

systemd-resolved on the host is reachable only at the loopback
address 127.0.0.53.
We advertise the default gateway address to the guest as resolver,
because our local address is of course unreachable from there, which
means we see DNS queries directed to the default gateway, and we
redirect them to 127.0.0.1. However, systemd-resolved doesn't answer
on 127.0.0.1.
To fix this, set @dns_match to the address of the default gateway,
unless a different resolver address is explicitly configured, so that
we know we explicitly have to map DNS queries, in this case, to the
address of the local resolver.
This means that in udp_tap_handler() we need to check, first, if
the destination address of packets matches @dns_match: even if it's
the address of the local gateway, we want to map that to a specific
address, which isn't necessarily 127.0.0.1.

Seen in a Google Compute Engine environment with a machine configured
via cloud-init-dhcp, while testing Podman integration for pasta: the
assigned address has a /32 netmask, and there's a default route,
which can be added on the host because there's another route, also
/32, pointing to the default gateway. For example, on the host:
ip -4 address add 10.156.0.2/32 dev eth0
ip -4 route add 10.156.0.1/32 dev eth0
ip -4 route add default via 10.156.0.1
This is not a valid configuration as far as I can tell: if the
address is configured as /32, it shouldn't be used to reach a gateway
outside its derived netmask. However, Linux allows that, and
everything works.
The problem comes when pasta --config-net sources address and default
route from the host, and it can't configure the route in the target
namespace because the gateway is invalid. That is, we would skip
configuring the first route in the example, which results in the
equivalent of doing:
ip -4 address add 10.156.0.2/32 dev eth0
ip -4 route add default via 10.156.0.1
where, at this point, 10.156.0.1 is unreachable, and hence invalid
as a gateway.
Sourcing more routes than just the default is doable, but probably
undesirable: pasta users want to provide connectivity to a container,
not reflect exactly whatever trickery is configured on the host.
Add a consistency check and an adjustment: if the configured default
gateway is not reachable, shrink the given netmask until we can reach

We recently corrected some errors handling the endianness of IPv4
addresses. These are very easy errors to make since although we mostly
store them in network endianness, we sometimes need to manipulate them in
host endianness.
To reduce the chances of making such mistakes again, change to always using
a (struct in_addr) instead of a bare in_addr_t or uint32_t to store network
endian addresses. This makes it harder to accidentally do arithmetic or
comparisons on such addresses as if they were host endian.
We introduce a number of IN4_IS_ADDR_*() helpers to make it easier to
directly work with struct in_addr values. This has the additional benefit
of making the IPv4 and IPv6 paths more visually similar.

This macro checks if an IPv4 address is in the loopback network
(127.0.0.0/8). There are two places where we open code an identical check,
use the macro instead.
There are also a number of places we specifically exclude the loopback
address (127.0.0.1), but we should actually be excluding anything in the
loopback network. Change those sites to use the macro as well.

There are several minor problems with our parsing of IPv4 netmasks (-n).
First, we don't reject nonsensical netmasks like 0.255.0.255. Address this
structurally by using prefix length instead of netmask as the primary
variable, only converting (and validating) when we need to. This has the
added benefit of making some things more uniform with the IPv6 path.
Second, when the user specifies a prefix length, we truncate the output
from strtol() to an integer, which means we would treat -n 4294967320 as
valid (equivalent to 24). Fix types to check for this.

The INADDR_LOOPBACK constant is in host endianness, and similarly the
IN_MULTICAST macro expects a host endian address. However, there are some
places in passt where we use those with network endian values. This means
that passt will incorrectly allow you to set 127.0.0.1 or a multicast
address as the guest address or DNS forwarding address. Add the necessary
conversions to correct this.
INADDR_ANY and INADDR_BROADCAST logically behave the same way, although
because they're palindromes it doesn't have an effect in practice. Change
them to be logically correct while we're there, though.

Having -f implied by -d (and --trace) usually saves some typing, but
debug mode in background (with a log file) is quite useful if pasta
is started by Podman, and is probably going to be handy for passt
with libvirt later, too.

Commit 84fec4e998 ("Clean up parsing of port ranges") drops the
strspn() call before the parsing of excluded port ranges, because now
we're checking against any stray characters at every step.
However, that also has the effect of passing ~ as first character to
the new parse_port_range(), which makes no sense: we already checked
that ~ is the first character before the call, so skip it.
Alona reported this output:
Invalid port specifier ~15000,~15001,~15006,~15008,~15020,~15021,~15090
while the whole specifier is indeed valid.

Even if CAP_NET_BIND_SERVICE is granted, we'll lose the capability in
the target user namespace as we isolate the process, which means
we're unable to bind to low ports at that point.
Bind inbound ports, and only those, before isolate_user(). Keep the
handling of outbound ports (for pasta mode only) after the setup of
the namespace, because that's where we'll bind them.
To this end, initialise the netlink socket for the init namespace
before isolate_user() as well, as we actually need to know the
addresses of the upstream interface before binding ports, in case
they're not explicitly passed by the user.
As we now call nl_sock_init() twice, checking its return code from
conf() twice looks a bit heavy: make it exit(), instead, as we
can't do much if we don't have netlink sockets.
While at it:
- move the v4_only && v6_only options check just after the first
option processing loop, as this is more strictly related to
option parsing proper
- update the man page, explaining that CAP_NET_BIND_SERVICE is
*not* the preferred way to bind ports, because passt and pasta
can be abused to allow other processes to make effective usage
of it. Add a note about the recommended sysctl instead
- simplify nl_sock_init_do() now that it's called once for each
case
