* acinclude.m4: Build with AF_XDP support by default if possible.Ilya Maximets2023-01-031-2/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | With this change we will try to detect all the netdev-afxdp dependencies and enable AF_XDP support by default if they are present at the build time. Configuration script behaves in a following way: - ./configure --enable-afxdp Will check for AF_XDP dependencies and fail if they are not available. - ./configure --disable-afxdp Disables checking for AF_XDP. Build will not support AF_XDP even if all dependencies are installed. - Just ./configure or ./configure --enable-afxdp=auto Will check for AF_XDP dependencies. Will print a warning if they are not available, but will continue without AF_XDP support. If dependencies are available in a system, this option is equal to --enable-afxdp. '--disable-afxdp' added to the debian and fedora package builds to keep predictable behavior. Acked-by: Eelco Chaudron <echaudro@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Ilya Maximets <i.maximets@ovn.org>

* dpdk: Use DPDK 21.11.2 release.Michael Phelan2022-10-041-4/+4
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Update OVS CLI and relevant documentation to use DPDK 21.11.2. DPDK 21.11.2 contains fixes for the CVEs listed below: CVE-2022-28199 [1] CVE-2022-2132 [2] A bug was introduced in DPDK 21.11.1 by the commit 01e3dee29c02 ("vhost: fix unsafe vring addresses modifications"). This bug can cause a deadlock when vIOMMU is enabled and NUMA reallocation of the virtqueues happen. A fix [3] has been posted and pushed to the DPDK 21.11 branch. If a user wishes to avoid the issue then it is recommended to use DPDK 21.11.0 until the release of DPDK 21.11.3. It should be noted that DPDK 21.11.0 does not benefit from the numerous bug and CVE fixes addressed since its release. If a user wishes to benefit from these fixes it is recommended to use DPDK 21.11.2.

* datapath-windows: Alg support for ftp and tftp in conntrackldejing2022-09-201-47/+133
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch mainly support alg field in ct action when process ftp/tftp traffic. Tftp with alg mainly parse the tftp packet (IPv4/IPv6), extract connect info from the tftp packet and create the related connection. For ftp, previous version has supported process of ftp traffic. However, previous version regard traffic from or to port 21 as ftp traffic, this is incorrect in some scenario. This version adds alg field in ct for ftp traffic, we could use ct(alg=ftp) to process any ftp traffic from/to any port. IPv4/IPv6. Test cases: 1) ftp ipv4/ipv6 use alg field in the normal and nat scenario. 2) tftp ipv4/ipv6 use alg field in the normal and nat scenario.

* datapath-windows: Add IPv6 conntrack support on Windows.ldejing2022-04-221-0/+172
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Implementation on Windows: Currently, IPv4 conntrack was supported on the windows platform. In this patch we have implemented ipv6 conntrack functions according to the current logic of the IPv4 conntrack. This implementation has included TcpV6(nat and normal scenario), UdpV6(nat and normal scenario), IcmpV6 conntrack of echo request/reply packet and FtpV6(nat and normal scenario). Testing Topology: On the Windows VM runs on the ESXi host, two hyper-v ports attached to the ovs bridge; one hyper-v port worked as client and the other port worked as server. Testing Case: 1. TcpV6 a) Tcp request/reply conntrack for normal scenario. In this scenario, 20::1 as client, 20::2 as server, it will generate following conntrack entry: (Origin(src=20::1, src_port=1555, dst=20::2, dst_port=1556), reply(src=20::2,src_port=1556,dst=20::1,dst_port=1555),protocol=tcp) b) Tcp request/reply conntrack for nat scenario. In this scenario, 20::1 as client, 20::10 as floating ip, 21::3 as server, it will generate following conntrack entry: (Origin(src=20::1, src_port=1555, dst=20::10, dst_port=1556), reply(src=21::3, src_port=1556, dst=20::1, dst_port= 1555),protocol=tcp) 2. UdpV6 a) Udp request/reply conntrack for normal scenario. (Origin(src=20::1, src_port=1555, dst=20::2, dst_port=1556), reply(src=20::2,src_port=1556,dst=20::1,dst_port=1555),protocol=udp) b) Udp request/reply conntrack for nat scenario. (Origin(src=20::1, src_port=1555, dst=20::10, dst_port=1556), reply(src=21::3, src_port=1556, dst=20::1, dst_port= 1555),protocol=udp) 3. IcmpV6: a) Icmpv6 request/reply conntrack for normal scenario. Currently Icmpv6 only support to construct conntrack for echo request/reply packet, take (20::1 -> 20::2) for example, it will generate following conntrack entry: (origin(src = 20::1, dst=20::2), reply(src=20::2, dst=20::1), protocol=icmp) b) Icmp request/reply conntrack for dnat scenario, for example (20::1->20::10->21::3), 20::1 is client, 20::10 is floating ip, 21::3 is server ip. It will generate flow like below: (origin(src=20::1, dst=20::10), reply(src=21::3, dst=20::1), protocol=icmp) 4. FtpV6 a) Ftp request/reply conntrack for normal scenario. In this scenario, take 20::1 as client, 20::2 as server, it will generate two conntrack entries: Ftp active mode (Origin(src=20::1, src_port=1555, dst=20::2, dst_port=21), reply(src=20::2, src_port=21, dst=20::1, dst_port=1555), protocol=tcp) (Origin(src=20::2, src_port=20, dst=20::1, dst_port=1556), reply(src=20::1, src_port=1556, dst=20::2, dst_port=20), protocol=tcp) Ftp passive mode (Origin(src=20::1, src_port=1555, dst=20::2, dst_port=21), reply(src=20::2,src_port=21,dst=20::1,dst_port=1555),protocol=tcp) (Origin(src=20::1, src_port=1556, dst=20::2, dst_port=1557), reply(src=20::2,src_port=1557, dst=20::1, dst_port=1556) protocol=tcp) b) Ftp request/reply conntrack for nat scenario. Ftp passive mode, In this secnario, 20::1 as client, 20::10 as floating ip, 21::3 as server ip. It will generate following flow: (Origin(src=20::1, src_port=1555, dst=20::10, dst_port=21), reply(src=21::3, src_port=21, dst=20::1, dst_port= 1555),protocol=tcp) (Origin(src=20::1, src_port=1556, dst=20::10, dst_port=1557), reply(src=21::3, src_port=1557, dst=20::1, dst_port= 1556),protocol=tcp) 5. Regression test for IpV4 in Antrea project (about 60 test case) Future work: 1) IcmpV6 redirect packet conntrack. 2) IpV6 fragment support on Udp. 3) Support napt for IPv6. 4) FtpV6 active mode for nat.

* datapath-windows: Add IPv6 Geneve tunnel support in WindowsWilson Peng2022-04-101-22/+48
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In the first step OVS Windows will support IPv6 tunnel(Geneve IPv6 tunnel). Implementation on Windows ------------------------- 1. For the IPv6 tunnel support,  OvsIPTunnelKey will replace original OvsIPv4TunnelKey in the related flow context handing. 2. The related src and dst address will be  changed to SOCKADDR_INET type from UINT32. 3. For the IPv6 tunnel,  one node running OVS-Windows could encapsulate IPv4/IPv6 Packets via IPV6 Geneve Tunnel, and the node could also encapsulate IPv4/IPv6 packet Via IPv4 Geneve tunnel. 4. Related IPHelper data structure will be adapted to support IPv6 Tunnel. In the IPHelper part the related Windows API(such as GetUnicastIpAddressTable/GetBestRoute2/GetIpNetEntry2/ ResolveIpNetEntry2) and Windows data structure(MIB_IPFORWARD_ROW2/MIB_IPNET_ROW2/IP_ADDRESS_PREFIX) Have already supported both IPv4 and IPV6. Now OVS Windows has been adjusted some functions And data structured to support IPV6 tunnel also. 5. OVS_TUNNEL_KEY_ATTR_IPV6_SRC and OVS_TUNNEL_KEY_ATTR_IPV6_DST filed will be supported in OVS-Windows kernel for IPV6 tunnel. Testing done. ------------------------- Related topo, 1 Windows VM(Win2019) and 2 Ubuntu 16.04 server. Both VMs Are running on one ESX host. 1. Setup one IPV6 Geneve Tunnel between 1 Windows VM and 1 Ubuntu server. Windows VM, vif0( 6000::2/40.1.1.10) vif1(5000::2)—— Ubuntu VM Eth2(5000::9), name space ns1 with interface ns1_link_peer(6000::9/40.1.1.2) Related tunnnel, ovs-vsctl.exe add-port br-int bms-tun0 -- set interface bms-tun0 type=Geneve options:csum=true options:key=flow options:local_ip="5000::2" options:remote_ip=flow In this topo, traffic from Vif0(Win) to ns1_link_peer(Ubuntu) will be gone through the Geneve tunnel (5000::2—>5000::9) for both IPv4 traffic(40.1.1.10-->40.1.1.2) and IPv6 traffic(6000::2—>6000::9) 2. Setup one IPV4 Geneve Tunnel between Windows VM and 1 Ubuntu server. Windows VM, vif0( 6000::2/40.1.1.10) vif1(50.1.1.11)—— Ubuntu, Eth2(50.1.1.9), name space ns1 with interface ns1_link_peer(6000::19/40.1.1.9) Related tunnnel, ovs-vsctl.exe -- set Interface bms-tun0 type=geneve options:csum=true options:key=flow options:local_ip="50.1.1.11" options:remote_ip=flow In this topo, traffic from Vif0(Win) to ns1_link_peer(Ubuntu) will be gone through the Geneve Tunnel (50.1.1.11—>50.1.1.9) for both IPv4 traffic(40.1.1.10-->40.1.1.9) and IPv6 traffic(6000::2—>6000::19). 3.Regression test for IpV4 in Antrea project (about 60 test case) is PASS Future Work ----------- Add other type IPv6 tunnel support for Gre/Vxlan/Stt.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This change removes the default values for EAL args socket-mem and socket-limit. As DPDK supports dynamic memory allocation, there is no need to allocate a certain amount of memory on start-up, nor limit the amount of memory available, if not requested. Currently, socket-mem has a default value of 1024 when it is not configured by the user, and socket-limit takes on the value of socket-mem, 1024, by default. With this change, socket-mem is not configured by default, meaning that socket-limit is not either. Neither, either or both options can be set.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The default DPDK library used before this patch in case pkg-config fails to find libdpdk is only valid for make based DPDK builds. Hence remove them. As a consequence, now this error message [1] is thrown when pkg-config cannot find libdpdk instead of proceeding to check for a faulty pkg-config and reporting incorrect error message [2]. Also, update the documentation to export PKG_CONFIG_PATH since on some systems, the default install path for DPDK libraries is not present in the default search path of pkg-config. Ex: for Fedora 32 default pkg-config search path: /usr/lib64/pkgconfig:/usr/share/pkgconfig while by default Meson installs DPDK libraries at: /usr/local/lib64/pkgconfig [1] Package libdpdk was not found in the pkg-config search path. Perhaps you should add the directory containing `libdpdk.pc' to the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable Package 'libdpdk', required by 'virtual:world', not found [2] checking for DPDK... no checking for faulty pkg-config version... yes configure: error: Please upgrade pkg-config Also, update the build documentation for AVX512 optimization.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This commit adds a section to the dpdk/bridge.rst netdev documentation, detailing the added DPCLS functionality. The newly added commands are documented, and sample output is provided. Running the DPCLS autovalidator with unit tests by default is possible through re-compiling the autovalidator to have the highest priority at startup time. This avoids making changes to all tests, and enables debug and CI builds to validate every lookup implementation with all unit tests. Add NEWS updates for CPU ISA, dynamic subtables, and AVX512 lookup.

* netdev-afxdp: NUMA-aware memory allocation for XSK related memory.Yi-Hung Wei2020-01-181-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently, the AF_XDP socket (XSK) related memory are allocated by main thread in the main thread's NUMA domain. With the patch that detects netdev-linux's NUMA node id, the PMD thread of AF_XDP port will be run on the AF_XDP netdev's NUMA domain. If the net device's NUMA domain is different from the main thread's NUMA domain, we will have two cross-NUMA memory accesses (netdev <-> memory, memory <-> CPU). This patch addresses the aforementioned issue by allocating the memory in the net device's NUMA domain.
