.Sh NAME
.Nm pf
.Nd packet filter
.Sh SYNOPSIS
.Cd "pseudo-device pf"
.Sh DESCRIPTION
Packet filtering takes place in the kernel.
A pseudo-device,
.Pa /dev/pf ,
allows userland processes to control the
behavior of the packet filter through an
.Xr ioctl 2
interface.
There are commands to enable and disable the filter, load rulesets,
add and remove individual rules or state table entries,
and retrieve statistics.
The most commonly used functions are covered by
.Xr pfctl 8 .
.Pp
Manipulations like loading a ruleset that involve more than a single
.Xr ioctl 2
call require a so-called
.Em ticket ,
which prevents the occurrence of
multiple concurrent manipulations.
.Pp
Fields of
.Xr ioctl 2
parameter structures that refer to packet data (like
addresses and ports) are generally expected in network byte-order.
.Pp
Rules and address tables are contained in so-called
.Em anchors .
When servicing an
.Xr ioctl 2
request, if the anchor field of the argument structure is empty,
the kernel will use the default anchor (i.e., the main ruleset)
in operations.
Anchors are specified by name and may be nested, with components
separated by
.Sq /
characters, similar to how file system hierarchies are laid out.
The final component of the anchor path is the anchor under which
operations will be performed.
Anchor names with characters after the terminating null byte are
considered invalid; if used in an ioctl,
.Er EINVAL
will be returned.
.Sh IOCTL INTERFACE
.Nm
supports the following
.Xr ioctl 2
commands, available through
.Aq Pa net/pfvar.h :
.Bl -tag -width xxxxxx
.It Dv DIOCSTART
Start the packet filter.
.It Dv DIOCSTOP
Stop the packet filter.
.It Dv DIOCSTARTALTQ
Start the ALTQ bandwidth control system (see
.Xr altq 9 ) .
.It Dv DIOCSTOPALTQ
Stop the ALTQ bandwidth control system.
.It Dv DIOCADDRULE Fa "struct pfioc_rule *pr"
.Bd -literal
struct pfioc_rule {

	char		anchor_call[MAXPATHLEN];
	struct pf_rule	rule;
};
.Ed
.Pp
Add
.Va rule
at the end of the inactive ruleset.
This call requires a
.Va ticket
obtained through a preceding
.Dv DIOCXBEGIN

The optional
.Va anchor
name indicates the anchor in which to append the rule.
.Va nr
and
.Va action
are ignored.
.It Dv DIOCADDALTQ Fa "struct pfioc_altq *pa"

.Bd -literal
struct pfioc_altq {

.Va rule
by its number
.Va nr
using the

the per-rule statistics on the requested rule are cleared.
.It Dv DIOCGETALTQS Fa "struct pfioc_altq *pa"

calls and the number
.Va nr
of queues in the active list.

};
.Ed
.Pp
Get the number
.Va nr
of rulesets (i.e., anchors) directly attached to the anchor named by
.Va path
for use in subsequent
.Dv DIOCGETRULESET
calls.
Nested anchors, since they are not directly attached to the given
anchor, will not be included.
This ioctl returns
.Er EINVAL
if the given anchor does not exist.
.It Dv DIOCGETRULESET Fa "struct pfioc_ruleset *pr"
Get a ruleset (i.e., an anchor)
.Va name
by its number
.Va nr
from the given anchor
.Va path ,
the maximum number of which can be obtained from a preceding

if the given anchor does not exist or
.Er EBUSY
if another process is concurrently updating a ruleset.

.Ed
.It Dv DIOCCLRSTATES Fa "struct pfioc_state_kill *psk"

	u_int8_t	 direction;
};
.Ed
.Pp
This was primarily used to support transparent proxies with rdr-to rules.
New proxies should use divert-to rules instead.
These do not require access to the privileged
.Pa /dev/pf
device and preserve the original destination address for
.Xr getsockname 2 .
For
.Dv SOCK_DGRAM
sockets, the
.Xr ip 4
socket options
.Dv IP_RECVDSTADDR
and
.Dv IP_RECVDSTPORT
can be used to retrieve the destination address and port.
.It Dv DIOCSETDEBUG Fa "u_int32_t *level"
Set the debug level.
See the
.Xr syslog 3
man page for a list of valid debug levels.
.It Dv DIOCGETSTATES Fa "struct pfioc_states *ps"

#define ps_buf		ps_u.psu_buf
#define ps_states	ps_u.psu_states
};
.Ed
.Pp
If
.Va ps_len
is non-zero on entry, as many states as possible that can fit into this
size will be copied into the supplied buffer
.Va ps_states .
On exit,
.Va ps_len
is always set to the total size required to hold all state table entries
(i.e., it is set to
.Li sizeof(struct pfsync_state) * nr ) .
.It Dv DIOCCHANGERULE Fa "struct pfioc_rule *pcr"
Add or remove the
.Va rule
in the ruleset specified by
.Va rule.action .
.Pp
The type of operation to be performed is indicated by
.Va action ,
which can be any of the following:
.Bd -literal
enum	{ PF_CHANGE_NONE, PF_CHANGE_ADD_HEAD, PF_CHANGE_ADD_TAIL,
	  PF_CHANGE_ADD_BEFORE, PF_CHANGE_ADD_AFTER,
	  PF_CHANGE_REMOVE, PF_CHANGE_GET_TICKET };
.Ed
.Pp
.Va ticket
must be set to the value obtained with
.Dv PF_CHANGE_GET_TICKET
for all actions except
.Dv PF_CHANGE_GET_TICKET .
.Va anchor
indicates to which anchor the operation applies.
.Va nr

Add a passive OS fingerprint to the table.
Set
.Va fp_os.fp_os
to the packed fingerprint,
.Va fp_os.fp_class_nm
to the name of the class (Linux, Windows, etc),
.Va fp_os.fp_version_nm
to the name of the version (NT, 95, 98), and
.Va fp_os.fp_subtype_nm
to the name of the subtype or patchlevel.
The members
.Va fp_mss ,
.Va fp_wsize ,
.Va fp_psize ,
.Va fp_ttl ,
.Va fp_optcnt ,
and
.Va fp_wscale
are set to the TCP MSS, the TCP window size, the IP length, the IP TTL,
the number of TCP options, and the TCP window scaling constant of the
TCP SYN packet, respectively.
.Pp
The
.Va fp_flags
member is filled according to the
.Aq Pa net/pfvar.h
include file
.Dv PF_OSFP_*
defines.
The
.Va fp_tcpopts
member contains packed TCP options.
Each option uses
.Dv PF_OSFP_TCPOPT_BITS
bits in the packed value.
Options include any of
.Dv PF_OSFP_TCPOPT_NOP ,
.Dv PF_OSFP_TCPOPT_SACK ,
.Dv PF_OSFP_TCPOPT_WSCALE ,
.Dv PF_OSFP_TCPOPT_MSS ,
or
.Dv PF_OSFP_TCPOPT_TS .
.Pp
The
.Va fp_getnum
member is not used with this ioctl.
.Pp
The structure's slack space must be zeroed for correct operation;
.Xr memset 3
the whole structure to zero before filling and sending to the kernel.
.It Dv DIOCOSFPGET Fa "struct pf_osfp_ioctl *io"
Get the passive OS fingerprint number
.Va fp_getnum
from the kernel's fingerprint list.
The rest of the structure members will come back filled.
Get the whole list by repeatedly incrementing the
.Va fp_getnum
number until the ioctl returns
.Er EBUSY .
.It Dv DIOCGETSRCNODES Fa "struct pfioc_src_nodes *psn"
.Bd -literal
struct pfioc_src_nodes {
	int	psn_len;
	union {
		caddr_t		psu_buf;
		struct pf_src_node	*psu_src_nodes;
	} psn_u;
#define psn_buf		psn_u.psu_buf
#define psn_src_nodes	psn_u.psu_src_nodes
};
.Ed
.Pp
Get the list of source nodes kept by sticky addresses and source
tracking.
The ioctl must be called once with
.Va psn_len
set to 0.
If the ioctl returns without error,
.Va psn_len
will be set to the size of the buffer required to hold all the
.Va pf_src_node
structures held in the table.
A buffer of this size should then be allocated, and a pointer to this buffer
placed in
.Va psn_buf .
The ioctl must then be called again to fill this buffer with the actual
source node data.
After that call,
.Va psn_len
will be set to the length of the buffer actually used.
.It Dv DIOCCLRSRCNODES
Clear the tree of source tracking nodes.
.It Dv DIOCIGETIFACES Fa "struct pfioc_iface *io"
Get the list of interfaces and interface drivers known to
.Nm .
All the ioctls that manipulate interfaces
use the same structure described below:
.Bd -literal
struct pfioc_iface {
	char			 pfiio_name[IFNAMSIZ];
	void			*pfiio_buffer;
	int			 pfiio_esize;
	int			 pfiio_size;
	int			 pfiio_nzero;
	int			 pfiio_flags;
};
.Ed
.Pp
If not empty,
.Va pfiio_name
can be used to restrict the search to a specific interface or driver.
.Va pfiio_buffer[pfiio_size]
is the user-supplied buffer for returning the data.
On entry,
.Va pfiio_size
contains the number of
.Vt pfi_kif
entries that can fit into the buffer.
The kernel will replace this value by the real number of entries it wants
to return.
.Va pfiio_esize
should be set to
.Li sizeof(struct pfi_kif) .
.Pp
The data is returned in the
.Vt pfi_kif
structure described below:
.Bd -literal
struct pfi_kif {
	char				 pfik_name[IFNAMSIZ];
	RB_ENTRY(pfi_kif)		 pfik_tree;
	u_int64_t			 pfik_packets[2][2][2];
	u_int64_t			 pfik_bytes[2][2][2];
	u_int32_t			 pfik_tzero;
	int				 pfik_flags;
	int				 pfik_flags_new;
	void				*pfik_ah_cookie;
	struct ifnet			*pfik_ifp;
	struct ifg_group		*pfik_group;
	int				 pfik_states;
	int				 pfik_rules;
	int				 pfik_routes;
	TAILQ_HEAD(, pfi_dynaddr)	 pfik_dynaddrs;
};
.Ed
.It Dv DIOCSETIFFLAG Fa "struct pfioc_iface *io"
Set the user settable flags (described above) of the
.Nm
internal interface description.
The filtering process is the same as for
.Dv DIOCIGETIFACES .
.Bd -literal
#define PFI_IFLAG_SKIP	0x0100	/* skip filtering on interface */
.Ed
.It Dv DIOCCLRIFFLAG Fa "struct pfioc_iface *io"
Works as
.Dv DIOCSETIFFLAG
above but clears the flags.
.It Dv DIOCKILLSRCNODES Fa "struct pfioc_iface *io"
Explicitly remove source tracking nodes.
