2016-03-11ip_tunnel: add support for setting flow label via collect metadataDaniel Borkmann1-1/+4
This patch extends udp_tunnel6_xmit_skb() to pass in the IPv6 flow label from call sites. Currently, there's no such option and it's always set to zero when writing ip6_flow_hdr(). Add a label member to ip_tunnel_key, so that flow-based tunnels via collect metadata frontends can make use of it. vxlan and geneve will be converted to add flow label support separately.

2016-01-21gro: Make GRO aware of lightweight tunnels.Jesse Gross1-0/+18
GRO is currently not aware of tunnel metadata generated by lightweight tunnels and stored in the dst. This leads to two possible problems: * Incorrectly merging two frames that have different metadata. * Leaking of allocated metadata from merged frames. This avoids those problems by comparing the tunnel information before merging, similar to how we handle other metadata (such as vlan tags), and releasing any state when we are done.

2015-11-05tun_dst: Fix potential NULL dereferenceTobias Klauser1-1/+2
In tun_dst_unclone() the return value of skb_metadata_dst() is checked for being NULL after it is dereferenced. Fix this by moving the dereference after the NULL check. Found by the Coverity scanner (CID 1338068). Fixes: fc4099f17240 ("openvswitch: Fix egress tunnel info.")

2015-10-23openvswitch: Fix egress tunnel info.Pravin B Shelar1-0/+32
While transitioning to netdev based vport we broke OVS feature which allows user to retrieve tunnel packet egress information for lwtunnel devices. Following patch fixes it by introducing ndo operation to get the tunnel egress info. Same ndo operation can be used for lwtunnel devices and compat ovs-tnl-vport devices. So after adding such device operation we can remove similar operation from ovs-vport. Fixes: 614732eaa12d ("openvswitch: Use regular VXLAN net_device device").

2015-08-31ip-tunnel: Use API to access tunnel metadata options.Pravin B Shelar1-17/+14
Currently tun-info options pointer is used in few cases to pass options around. But tunnel options can be accessed using ip_tunnel_info_opts() API without using the pointer. Following patch removes the redundant pointer and consistently make use of API.

2015-08-29ip_tunnels: record IP version in tunnel infoJiri Benc1-0/+1
There's currently nothing preventing directing packets with IPv6 encapsulation data to IPv4 tunnels (and vice versa). If this happens, IPv6 addresses are incorrectly interpreted as IPv4 ones. Track whether the given ip_tunnel_key contains IPv4 or IPv6 data. Store this in ip_tunnel_info. Reject packets at appropriate places if they are supposed to be encapsulated into an incompatible protocol.

2015-08-21route: move lwtunnel state to dst_entryJiri Benc1-10/+5
Currently, the lwtunnel state resides in per-protocol data. This is a problem if we encapsulate ipv6 traffic in an ipv4 tunnel (or vice versa). The xmit function of the tunnel does not know whether the packet has been routed to it by ipv4 or ipv6, yet it needs the lwtstate data. Moving the lwtstate data to dst_entry makes such inter-protocol tunneling possible. As a bonus, this brings a nice diffstat.

2015-08-01bpf: add helpers to access tunnel metadataAlexei Starovoitov1-0/+1
Introduce helpers to let eBPF programs attached to TC manipulate tunnel metadata: bpf_skb_[gs]et_tunnel_key(skb, key, size, flags) skb: pointer to skb key: pointer to 'struct bpf_tunnel_key' size: size of 'struct bpf_tunnel_key' flags: room for future extensions First eBPF program that uses these helpers will allocate per_cpu metadata_dst structures that will be used on TX. On RX metadata_dst is allocated by tunnel driver. Typical usage for TX: struct bpf_tunnel_key tkey; ... populate tkey ... bpf_skb_set_tunnel_key(skb, &tkey, sizeof(tkey), 0); bpf_clone_redirect(skb, vxlan_dev_ifindex, 0); RX: struct bpf_tunnel_key tkey = {}; bpf_skb_get_tunnel_key(skb, &tkey, sizeof(tkey), 0); ... lookup or redirect based on tkey ... 'struct bpf_tunnel_key' will be extended in the future by adding elements to the end and the 'size' argument will indicate which fields are populated, thereby keeping backwards compatibility. The 'flags' argument may be used as well when the 'size' is not enough or to indicate completely different layout of bpf_tunnel_key.

2015-07-21vxlan: Flow based tunnelingThomas Graf1-0/+13
Allows putting a VXLAN device into a new flow-based mode in which skbs with a ip_tunnel_info dst metadata attached will be encapsulated according to the instructions stored in there with the VXLAN device defaults taken into consideration. Similar on the receive side, if the VXLAN_F_COLLECT_METADATA flag is set, the packet processing will populate a ip_tunnel_info struct for each packet received and attach it to the skb using the new metadata dst. The metadata structure will contain the outer header and tunnel header fields which have been stripped off. Layers further up in the stack such as routing, tc or netfitler can later match on these fields and perform forwarding. It is the responsibility of upper layers to ensure that the flag is set if the metadata is needed. The flag limits the additional cost of metadata collecting based on demand. This prepares the VXLAN device to be steered by the routing and other subsystems which allows to support encapsulation for a large number of tunnel endpoints and tunnel ids through a single net_device which improves the scalability. It also allows for OVS to leverage this mode which in turn allows for the removal of the OVS specific VXLAN code. Because the skb is currently scrubed in vxlan_rcv(), the attachment of the new dst metadata is postponed until after scrubing which requires the temporary addition of a new member to vxlan_metadata. This member is removed again in a later commit after the indirect VXLAN receive API has been removed.

2015-07-21dst: Metadata destinationsThomas Graf1-0/+32
Introduces a new dst_metadata which enables to carry per packet metadata between forwarding and processing elements via the skb->dst pointer. The structure is set up to be a union. Thus, each separate type of metadata requires its own dst instance. If demand arises to carry multiple types of metadata concurrently, metadata dst entries can be made stackable. The metadata dst entry is refcnt'ed as expected for now but a non reference counted use is possible if the reference is forced before queueing the skb. In order to allow allocating dsts with variable length, the existing dst_alloc() is split into a dst_alloc() and dst_init() function. The existing dst_init() function to initialize the subsystem is being renamed to dst_subsys_init() to make it clear what is what. The check before ip_route_input() is changed to ignore metadata dsts and drop the dst inside the routing function thus allowing to interpret metadata in a later commit.
