2019-03-27fou: Support binding FoU socketKristian Evensen1-0/+6
An FoU socket is currently bound to the wildcard-address. While this works fine, there are several use-cases where the use of the wildcard-address is not desirable. For example, I use FoU on some multi-homed servers and would like to use FoU on only one of the interfaces. This commit adds support for binding FoU sockets to a given source address/interface, as well as connecting the socket to a given destination address/port. udp_tunnel already provides the required infrastructure, so most of the code added is for exposing and setting the different attributes (local address, peer address, etc.). The lookups performed when we add, delete or get an FoU-socket has also been updated to compare all the attributes a user can set. Since the comparison now involves several elements, I have added a separate comparison-function instead of open-coding. In order to test the code and ensure that the new comparison code works correctly, I started by creating a wildcard socket bound to port 1234 on my machine. I then tried to create a non-wildcarded socket bound to the same port, as well as fetching and deleting the socket (including source address, peer address or interface index in the netlink request). Both the create, fetch and delete request failed. Deleting/fetching the socket was only successful when my netlink request attributes matched those used to create the socket. I then repeated the tests, but with a socket bound to a local ip address, a socket bound to a local address + interface, and a bound socket that was also «connected» to a peer. Add only worked when no socket with the matching source address/interface (or wildcard) existed, while fetch/delete was only successful when all attributes matched. In addition to testing that the new code work, I also checked that the current behavior is kept. If none of the new attributes are provided, then an FoU-socket is configured as before (i.e., wildcarded). If any of the new attributes are provided, the FoU-socket is configured as expected. v1->v2: * Fixed building with IPv6 disabled (kbuild). * Fixed a return type warning and make the ugly comparison function more readable (kbuild). * Describe more in detail what has been tested (thanks David Miller). * Make peer port required if peer address is specified.

2017-11-02License cleanup: add SPDX license identifier to uapi header files with no ↵Greg Kroah-Hartman1-0/+1
license Many user space API headers are missing licensing information, which makes it hard for compliance tools to determine the correct license. By default are files without license information under the default license of the kernel, which is GPLV2. Marking them GPLV2 would exclude them from being included in non GPLV2 code, which is obviously not intended. The user space API headers fall under the syscall exception which is in the kernels COPYING file: NOTE! This copyright does *not* cover user programs that use kernel services by normal system calls - this is merely considered normal use of the kernel, and does *not* fall under the heading of "derived work". otherwise syscall usage would not be possible. Update the files which contain no license information with an SPDX license identifier. The chosen identifier is 'GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note' which is the officially assigned identifier for the Linux syscall exception. SPDX license identifiers are a legally binding shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text. This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart and Philippe Ombredanne. See the previous patch in this series for the methodology of how this patch was researched.

2015-02-12gue: Use checksum partial with remote checksum offloadTom Herbert1-0/+1
Change remote checksum handling to set checksum partial as default behavior. Added an iflink parameter to configure not using checksum partial (calling csum_partial to update checksum). Signed-off-by: Tom Herbert <therbert@google.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2014-10-04gue: Receive side for Generic UDP EncapsulationTom Herbert1-0/+7
This patch adds support receiving for GUE packets in the fou module. The fou module now supports direct foo-over-udp (no encapsulation header) and GUE. To support this a type parameter is added to the fou netlink parameters. For a GUE socket we define gue_udp_recv, gue_gro_receive, and gue_gro_complete to handle the specifics of the GUE protocol. Most of the code to manage and configure sockets is common with the fou. Signed-off-by: Tom Herbert <therbert@google.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2014-09-20fou: Support for foo-over-udp RX pathTom Herbert1-0/+32
This patch provides a receive path for foo-over-udp. This allows direct encapsulation of IP protocols over UDP. The bound destination port is used to map to an IP protocol, and the XFRM framework (udp_encap_rcv) is used to receive encapsulated packets. Upon reception, the encapsulation header is logically removed (pointer to transport header is advanced) and the packet is reinjected into the receive path with the IP protocol indicated by the mapping. Netlink is used to configure FOU ports. The configuration information includes the port number to bind to and the IP protocol corresponding to that port. This should support GRE/UDP (http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-yong-tsvwg-gre-in-udp-encap-02), as will as the other IP tunneling protocols (IPIP, SIT).
