From 2851940ffee313e0ff12540a8e11a8c54dea9c65 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: =?utf8?q?Michal=20Kube=C4=8Dek?= Date: Tue, 31 Jan 2017 10:30:06 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] netfilter: allow logging from non-init namespaces Commit 69b34fb996b2 ("netfilter: xt_LOG: add net namespace support for xt_LOG") disabled logging packets using the LOG target from non-init namespaces. The motivation was to prevent containers from flooding kernel log of the host. The plan was to keep it that way until syslog namespace implementation allows containers to log in a safe way. However, the work on syslog namespace seems to have hit a dead end somewhere in 2013 and there are users who want to use xt_LOG in all network namespaces. This patch allows to do so by setting /proc/sys/net/netfilter/nf_log_all_netns to a nonzero value. This sysctl is only accessible from init_net so that one cannot switch the behaviour from inside a container.
