| * openvswitch: Fix checksum calculation when modifying ICMPv6 packets.Jesse Gross2014-11-141-2/+6
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The checksum of ICMPv6 packets uses the IP pseudoheader as part of the calculation, unlike ICMP in IPv4. This was not implemented, which means that modifying the IP addresses of an ICMPv6 packet would cause the checksum to no longer be correct as the psuedoheader did not match.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | OVS need to flow key for flow lookup in recic action. OVS does key extract in recic action. Most of cases we could use OVS_CB packet key directly and can avoid packet flow key extract. SET action we can update flow-key along with packet to keep it consistent. But there are some action like MPLS pop which forces OVS to do flow-extract. In such cases we can mark flow key as invalid so that subsequent recirc action can do full flow extract.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | OVS vswitch has extended IPFIX exporter to export tunnel headers to improve network visibility. To export this information userspace needs to know egress tunnel for given packet. By extending packet attributes datapath can export egress tunnel info for given packet.

* | datapath: Rename last_action() as nla_is_last() and move to netlink.hSimon Horman2014-10-281-8/+3
|/ | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The original motivation for this change was to allow the helper to be used in files other than actions.c as part of work on an odp select group action. It was as pointed out by Thomas Graf that this helper would be best off living in netlink.h. Furthermore, I think that the generic nature of this helper means it is best off in netlink.h regardless of if it is used more than one .c file or not. Thus, I would like it considered independent of the work on an odp select group action.

* openvswitch: Wrap struct ovs_key_ipv4_tunnel in a new structure.Jesse Gross2014-10-061-2/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently, the flow information that is matched for tunnels and the tunnel data passed around with packets is the same. However, as additional information is added this is not necessarily desirable, as in the case of pointers. This adds a new structure for tunnel metadata which currently contains only the existing struct. This change is purely internal to the kernel since the current OVS_KEY_ATTR_IPV4_TUNNEL is simply a compressed version of OVS_KEY_ATTR_TUNNEL that is translated at flow setup.

* openvswitch: Add recirc and hash action.Andy Zhou2014-09-151-6/+197
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Recirc action allows a packet to reenter openvswitch processing. currently openvswitch lookup flow for packet received and execute set of actions on that packet, with help of recirc action we can process/modify the packet and recirculate it back in openvswitch for another pass. OVS hash action calculates 5-tupple hash and set hash in flow-key hash. This can be used along with recirculation for distributing packets among different ports for bond devices. For example: OVS bonding can use following actions: Match on: bond flow; Action: hash, recirc(id) Match on: recirc-id == id and hash lower bits == a; Action: output port_bond_a Signed-off-by: Andy Zhou <azhou@nicira.com> Acked-by: Jesse Gross <jesse@nicira.com> Signed-off-by: Pravin B Shelar <pshelar@nicira.com>

* openvswitch: fix panic with multiple vlan headersJiri Benc2014-08-221-0/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When there are multiple vlan headers present in a received frame, the first one is put into vlan_tci and protocol is set to ETH_P_8021Q. Anything in the skb beyond the VLAN TPID may be still non-linear, including the inner TCI and ethertype. While ovs_flow_extract takes care of IP and IPv6 headers, it does nothing with ETH_P_8021Q. Later, if OVS_ACTION_ATTR_POP_VLAN is executed, __pop_vlan_tci pulls the next vlan header into vlan_tci. This leads to two things: 1. Part of the resulting ethernet header is in the non-linear part of the skb. When eth_type_trans is called later as the result of OVS_ACTION_ATTR_OUTPUT, kernel BUGs in __skb_pull. Also, __pop_vlan_tci is in fact accessing random data when it reads past the TPID. 2. network_header points into the ethernet header instead of behind it. mac_len is set to a wrong value (10), too.

* openvswitch: Sample action without side effectsSimon Horman2014-07-241-11/+37
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The sample action is rather generic, allowing arbitrary actions to be executed based on a probability. However its use, within the Open vSwitch code-base is limited: only a single user-space action is ever nested. A consequence of the current implementation of sample actions is that depending on weather the sample action executed (due to its probability) any side-effects of nested actions may or may not be present before executing subsequent actions. This has the potential to complicate verification of valid actions by the (kernel) datapath. And indeed adding support for push and pop MPLS actions inside sample actions is one case where such case. In order to allow all supported actions to be continue to be nested inside sample actions without the potential need for complex verification code this patch changes the implementation of the sample action in the kernel datapath so that sample actions are more like a function call and any side effects of nested actions are not present when executing subsequent actions. With the above in mind the motivation for this change is twofold: * To contain side-effects the sample action in the hope of making it easier to deal with in the future and; * To avoid some rather complex verification code introduced in the MPLS datapath patch.

This does not clear l4_rxhash which could still be set so that the rxhash wouldn't be recalculated on subsequent call to skb_get_rxhash. This patch adds an explict function to clear all the rxhash related information in the skb properly. skb_clear_hash_if_not_l4 clears the rxhash only if it is not marked as l4_rxhash.

* openvswitch: Reset tunnel key between input and output.Jesse Gross2013-08-141-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | It doesn't make sense to output a tunnel packet using the same parameters that it was received with since that will generally just result in the packet going back to us. As a result, userspace assumes that the tunnel key is cleared when transitioning through the switch. In the majority of cases this doesn't matter since a packet is either going to a tunnel port (in which the key is overwritten with new values) or to a non-tunnel port (in which case the key is ignored). However, it's theoreticaly possible that userspace could rely on the documented behavior, so this corrects it. Signed-off-by: Jesse Gross <jesse@nicira.com>

* openvswitch: fix the calculation of checksum for vlan headerCong Wang2013-02-221-2/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In vlan_insert_tag(), we insert a 4-byte VLAN header _after_ mac header: memmove(skb->data, skb->data + VLAN_HLEN, 2 * ETH_ALEN); ... veth->h_vlan_proto = htons(ETH_P_8021Q); ... veth->h_vlan_TCI = htons(vlan_tci); so after it, we should recompute the checksum to include these 4 bytes. skb->data still points to the mac header, therefore VLAN header is at (2 * ETH_ALEN = 12) bytes after it, not (ETH_HLEN = 14) bytes. This can also be observed via tcpdump: 0x0000: ffff ffff ffff 5254 005d 6f6e 8100 000a 0x0010: 0806 0001 0800 0604 0001 5254 005d 6f6e 0x0020: c0a8 026e 0000 0000 0000 c0a8 0282 Similar for __pop_vlan_tci(), the vlan header we remove is the one overwritten in: memmove(skb->data + VLAN_HLEN, skb->data, 2 * ETH_ALEN); Therefore the VLAN_HLEN = 4 bytes after 2 * ETH_ALEN is the part we want to sub from checksum.

* net: Add Open vSwitch kernel components.Jesse Gross2011-12-031-0/+415
Open vSwitch is a multilayer Ethernet switch targeted at virtualized environments. In addition to supporting a variety of features expected in a traditional hardware switch, it enables fine-grained programmatic extension and flow-based control of the network. This control is useful in a wide variety of applications but is particularly important in multi-server virtualization deployments, which are often characterized by highly dynamic endpoints and the need to maintain logical abstractions for multiple tenants. The Open vSwitch datapath provides an in-kernel fast path for packet forwarding. It is complemented by a userspace daemon, ovs-vswitchd, which is able to accept configuration from a variety of sources and translate it into packet processing rules. See http://openvswitch.org for more information and userspace utilities. Signed-off-by: Jesse Gross <jesse@nicira.com>
