ctinfo is a new tc filter action module. It is designed to restore information contained in firewall conntrack marks to other packet fields and is typically used on packet ingress paths. At present it has two independent sub-functions or operating modes, DSCP restoration mode & skb mark restoration mode.
The DSCP restore mode:
This mode copies DSCP values that have been placed in the firewall conntrack mark back into the IPv4/v6 diffserv fields of relevant packets.
The DSCP restoration is intended for use and has been found useful for restoring ingress classifications based on egress classifications across links that bleach or otherwise change DSCP, typically home ISP Internet links. Restoring DSCP on ingress on the WAN link allows qdiscs such as but by no means limited to CAKE to shape inbound packets according to policies that are easier to set & mark on egress.
Ingress classification is traditionally a challenging task since iptables rules haven't yet run and tc filter/eBPF programs are pre-NAT lookups, hence are unable to see internal IPv4 addresses as used on the typical home masquerading gateway. Thus marking the connection in some manner on egress for later restoration of classification on ingress is easier to implement.
Parameters related to DSCP restore mode:
dscpmask - a 32 bit mask of 6 contiguous bits and indicate bits of the conntrack mark field contain the DSCP value to be restored.
statemask - a 32 bit mask of (usually) 1 bit length, outside the area specified by dscpmask. This represents a conditional operation flag whereby the DSCP is only restored if the flag is set. This is useful to implement a 'one shot' iptables based classification where the 'complicated' iptables rules are only run once to classify the connection on initial (egress) packet and subsequent packets are all marked/restored with the same DSCP. A mask of zero disables the conditional behaviour ie. the conntrack mark DSCP bits are always restored to the ip diffserv field (assuming the conntrack entry is found & the skb is an ipv4/ipv6 type)
e.g. dscpmask 0xfc000000 statemask 0x01000000
|----0xFC----conntrack mark----000000---| | Bits 31-26 | bit 25 | bit24 |~~~ Bit 0| | DSCP | unused | flag |unused | |-----------------------0x01---000000---| | | | | ---| Conditional flag v only restore if set |-ip diffserv-| | 6 bits | |-------------|
The skb mark restore mode (cpmark):
This mode copies the firewall conntrack mark to the skb's mark field. It is completely the functional equivalent of the existing act_connmark action with the additional feature of being able to apply a mask to the restored value.
Parameters related to skb mark restore mode:
mask - a 32 bit mask applied to the firewall conntrack mark to mask out bits unwanted for restoration. This can be useful where the conntrack mark is being used for different purposes by different applications. If not specified and by default the whole mark field is copied (i.e. default mask of 0xffffffff)
e.g. mask 0x00ffffff to mask out the top 8 bits being used by the aforementioned DSCP restore mode.
|----0x00----conntrack mark----ffffff---| | Bits 31-24 | | | DSCP & flag| some value here | |---------------------------------------| | | v |------------skb mark-------------------| | | | | zeroed | | |---------------------------------------|
Overall parameters:
zone - conntrack zone
control - action related control (reclassify | pipe | drop | continue | ok | goto chain <CHAIN_INDEX>)

ctinfo is a new tc filter action module. It is designed to restore information contained in firewall conntrack marks to other packet fields and is typically used on packet ingress paths. At present it has two independent sub-functions or operating modes, DSCP restoration mode & skb mark restoration mode.
The DSCP restore mode:
This mode copies DSCP values that have been placed in the firewall conntrack mark back into the IPv4/v6 diffserv fields of relevant packets.
The DSCP restoration is intended for use and has been found useful for restoring ingress classifications based on egress classifications across links that bleach or otherwise change DSCP, typically home ISP Internet links. Restoring DSCP on ingress on the WAN link allows qdiscs such as but by no means limited to CAKE to shape inbound packets according to policies that are easier to set & mark on egress.
Ingress classification is traditionally a challenging task since iptables rules haven't yet run and tc filter/eBPF programs are pre-NAT lookups, hence are unable to see internal IPv4 addresses as used on the typical home masquerading gateway. Thus marking the connection in some manner on egress for later restoration of classification on ingress is easier to implement.
Parameters related to DSCP restore mode:
dscpmask - a 32 bit mask of 6 contiguous bits and indicate bits of the conntrack mark field contain the DSCP value to be restored.
statemask - a 32 bit mask of (usually) 1 bit length, outside the area specified by dscpmask. This represents a conditional operation flag whereby the DSCP is only restored if the flag is set. This is useful to implement a 'one shot' iptables based classification where the 'complicated' iptables rules are only run once to classify the connection on initial (egress) packet and subsequent packets are all marked/restored with the same DSCP. A mask of zero disables the conditional behaviour ie. the conntrack mark DSCP bits are always restored to the ip diffserv field (assuming the conntrack entry is found & the skb is an ipv4/ipv6 type)
e.g. dscpmask 0xfc000000 statemask 0x01000000
|----0xFC----conntrack mark----000000---| | Bits 31-26 | bit 25 | bit24 |~~~ Bit 0| | DSCP | unused | flag |unused | |-----------------------0x01---000000---| | | | | ---| Conditional flag v only restore if set |-ip diffserv-| | 6 bits | |-------------|
The skb mark restore mode (cpmark):
This mode copies the firewall conntrack mark to the skb's mark field. It is completely the functional equivalent of the existing act_connmark action with the additional feature of being able to apply a mask to the restored value.
Parameters related to skb mark restore mode:
mask - a 32 bit mask applied to the firewall conntrack mark to mask out bits unwanted for restoration. This can be useful where the conntrack mark is being used for different purposes by different applications. If not specified and by default the whole mark field is copied (i.e. default mask of 0xffffffff)
e.g. mask 0x00ffffff to mask out the top 8 bits being used by the aforementioned DSCP restore mode.
|----0x00----conntrack mark----ffffff---| | Bits 31-24 | | | DSCP & flag| some value here | |---------------------------------------| | | v |------------skb mark-------------------| | | | | zeroed | | |---------------------------------------|
Overall parameters:
zone - conntrack zone
control - action related control (reclassify | pipe | drop | continue | ok | goto chain <CHAIN_INDEX>)
