Subject[PATCH] ipchains log will show all flags
Hi,

This tiny patch extends ipchains logging. This way one can distinguish
(plain) connection attempts and (stealth) scans. E.g.
kernel: Packet log: input - lo PROTO=6 127.0.0.1:40326 127.0.0.1:80
L=40 S=0x00 I=5808 F=0x0000 T=51 (#1)
vs.
L=40 S=0x00 I=5808 F=0x0000 T=51 SYN ACK (#1)
and
L=40 S=0x00 I=5808 F=0x0000 T=51 URG PSH SYN FIN (#1)

Some comments on the format have been considered. I dislike
bloating my logging with "URG ACK PSH RST SYN FIN " and like to see a
compact format (eg. "B=fsrpau"). Despite that iptables does it the
former way (linux-2.4.0-test11/net/ipv4/netfilter/ipt_LOG.c).

Please note that SYN is not any longer SYN && !ACK && !RST. This will
break log parser that look for connection initiation packets.

Besides ipchains(8) man page is wrong. FIN should be RST?
[!] -y, --syn
Only match TCP packets with the SYN bit set and the
ACK and FIN bits cleared. Such packets are used to


Could you please comment on the tradeoff between multiple printk()'s and
the printk("%s", "")?

Logging the FW Mark value was suggested by Roberto Nibali <ratz@tac.ch>
Could be included as printk(" M=%d", f->ipfw.fw_mark);


The patch is against 2.2.17's /net/ipv4/ip_fw.c
