* datapath: backport: openvswitch: do not ignore netdev errors when creating ↵Pravin B Shelar2016-08-151-1/+8
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | tunnel vports Upstream commit: commit 4b5b9ba553f9aa5f484ab972fc9b58061885ceca Author: Martynas Pumputis <martynas@weave.works> Date: Tue Aug 9 16:24:50 2016 +0100 openvswitch: do not ignore netdev errors when creating tunnel vports The creation of a tunnel vport (geneve, gre, vxlan) brings up a corresponding netdev, a multi-step operation which can fail. For example, changing a vxlan vport's netdev state to 'up' binds the vport's socket to a UDP port - if the binding fails (e.g. due to the port being in use), the error is currently ignored giving the appearance that the tunnel vport creation completed successfully.

* dataoath: compat: Do not use upstream fill-meta-data function for compat tunnelPravin B Shelar2016-07-181-0/+2
| | | | | | | | | upstream dev_fill_metadata_dst() uses upstream tunnel-dst which could be different from OVS defined tun-dst. Therefore use fill-meta-data function from compat layer. Signed-off-by: Pravin B Shelar <pshelar@ovn.org> Acked-by: Jesse Gross <jesse@kernel.org>
* datapath: compat: Refactor egress tunnel infoPravin B Shelar2016-07-081-13/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | upstream tunnel egress info is retrieved using ndo_fill_metadata_dst. Since we do not have it on older kernel we need to keep vport operation to do same on these kernels. Following patch try to merge these to operations into one to avoid code duplication. This commit backports fc4099f1 ("openvswitch: Fix egress tunnel info.")

* datapath: Backport: openvswitch: properly refcount vport-vxlan modulePravin B Shelar2015-12-081-1/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Upstream commit: After 614732eaa12d, no refcount is maintained for the vport-vxlan module. This allows the userspace to remove such module while vport-vxlan devices still exist, which leads to later oops. v1 -> v2: - move vport 'owner' initialization in ovs_vport_ops_register() and make such function a macro Fixes: 614732eaa12d ("openvswitch: Use regular VXLAN net_device device") Signed-off-by: Paolo Abeni <pabeni@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

* datapath: Add support for lwtunnelPravin B Shelar2015-12-031-119/+42
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Following patch adds support for lwtunnel to OVS datapath. With this change OVS datapath detect lwtunnel support and make use of new APIs if available. On older kernel where the support is not there the backported tunnel modules are used. These backported tunnel devices acts as lwtunnel devices. I tried to keep backported module same as upstream for easier bug-fix backport. Since STT and LISP are not upstream OVS always needs to use respective modules from tunnel compat layer. To make it work on kernel 4.3 I have converted STT and LISP modules to lwtunnel API model. lwtunnel make use of skb-dst to pass tunnel information to the tunnel module. On older kernel this is not possible. So the in case of old kernel metadata ref is stored in OVS_CB and direct call to tunnel transmit function is made by respective tunnel vport modules. Similarly on receive side tunnel recv directly call netdev-vport-receive to pass the skb to OVS. Major backported components include: Geneve, GRE, VXLAN, ip_tunnel, udp-tunnels GRO.

* datapath: Add Stateless TCP Tunneling protocol.Pravin B Shelar2015-04-291-0/+231
The Stateless TCP Tunnel (STT) protocol encapsulates traffic in IPv4/TCP packets. STT uses TCP segmentation offload available in most of NIC. On packet xmit STT driver appends STT header along with TCP header to the packet. For GSO packet GSO parameters are set according to tunnel configuration and packet is handed over to networking stack. This allows use of segmentation offload available in NICs The protocol is documented at http://www.ietf.org/archive/id/draft-davie-stt-06.txt Signed-off-by: Pravin B Shelar <pshelar@nicira.com> Signed-off-by: Jesse Gross <jesse@nicira.com> Acked-by: Jesse Gross <jesse@nicira.com>
