geneve: change NET_UDP_TUNNEL dependency to select

2019-02-12T17:23:59+00:00

Due to the depends on NET_UDP_TUNNEL, at the moment it is impossible to
compile GENEVE if no other protocol depending on NET_UDP_TUNNEL is
selected.

Fix this changing the depends to a select, and drop NET_IP_TUNNEL from the
select list, as it already depends on NET_UDP_TUNNEL.

net: documentation: build a directory structure for drivers

2018-12-05T19:30:06+00:00

Documentation/networking/ is full of cryptically named files with
driver documentation.  This makes finding interesting information
at a glance really hard.  Move all those files into a directory
called device_drivers (since not all drivers are for device) and
fix up references.

RFC v0.1 -> RFC v1:
 - also add .txt suffix to the files which are missing it (Quentin)

virtio_net: Extend virtio to use VF datapath when available

2018-05-29T02:59:54+00:00

This patch enables virtio_net to switch over to a VF datapath when STANDBY
feature is enabled and a VF netdev is present with the same MAC address.
It allows live migration of a VM with a direct attached VF without the need
to setup a bond/team between a VF and virtio net device in the guest.

It uses the API that is exported by the net_failover driver to create and
and destroy a master failover netdev. When STANDBY feature is enabled, an
additional netdev(failover netdev) is created that acts as a master device
and tracks the state of the 2 lower netdevs. The original virtio_net netdev
is marked as 'standby' netdev and a passthru device with the same MAC is
registered as 'primary' netdev.

The hypervisor needs to unplug the VF device from the guest on the source
host and reset the MAC filter of the VF to initiate failover of datapath
to virtio before starting the migration. After the migration is completed,
the destination hypervisor sets the MAC filter on the VF and plugs it back
to the guest to switch over to VF datapath.

This patch is based on the discussion initiated by Jesse on this thread.

net: Introduce net_failover driver

2018-05-29T02:59:54+00:00

The net_failover driver provides an automated failover mechanism via APIs
to create and destroy a failover master netdev and manages a primary and
standby slave netdevs that get registered via the generic failover
infrastructure.

The failover netdev acts a master device and controls 2 slave devices. The
original paravirtual interface gets registered as 'standby' slave netdev and
a passthru/vf device with the same MAC gets registered as 'primary' slave
netdev. Both 'standby' and 'failover' netdevs are associated with the same
'pci' device. The user accesses the network interface via 'failover' netdev.
The 'failover' netdev chooses 'primary' netdev as default for transmits when
it is available with link up and running.

This can be used by paravirtual drivers to enable an alternate low latency
datapath. It also enables hypervisor controlled live migration of a VM with
direct attached VF by failing over to the paravirtual datapath when the VF
is unplugged.

geneve: fix build with modular IPV6

2018-04-27T17:52:09+00:00

Commit c40e89fd358e ("geneve: configure MTU based on a lower device") added
an IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_IPV6) to geneve, leading to the following link error
with CONFIG_GENEVE=y and CONFIG_IPV6=m:

drivers/net/geneve.o: In function `geneve_link_config':
geneve.c:(.text+0x14c): undefined reference to `rt6_lookup'

Fix this by adding a Kconfig dependency and forcing GENEVE to be a module
when IPV6 is a module.

netdevsim: Add simple FIB resource controller via devlink

2018-03-29T18:10:31+00:00

Add devlink support to netdevsim and use it to implement a simple,
profile based resource controller. Only one controller is needed
per namespace, so the first netdevsim netdevice in a namespace
registers with devlink. If that device is deleted, the resource
settings are deleted.

The resource controller allows a user to limit the number of IPv4 and
IPv6 FIB entries and FIB rules. The resource paths are:
/IPv4
/IPv4/fib
/IPv4/fib-rules
/IPv6
/IPv6/fib
/IPv6/fib-rules

The IPv4 and IPv6 top level resources are unlimited in size and can not
be changed. From there, the number of FIB entries and FIB rule entries
are unlimited by default. A user can specify a limit for the fib and
fib-rules resources:

$ devlink resource set netdevsim/netdevsim0 path /IPv4/fib size 96
$ devlink resource set netdevsim/netdevsim0 path /IPv4/fib-rules size 16
$ devlink resource set netdevsim/netdevsim0 path /IPv6/fib size 64
$ devlink resource set netdevsim/netdevsim0 path /IPv6/fib-rules size 16
$ devlink dev reload netdevsim/netdevsim0

such that the number of rules or routes is limited (96 ipv4 routes in the
example above):
$ for n in $(seq 1 32); do ip ro add 10.99.$n.0/24 dev eth1; done
Error: netdevsim: Exceeded number of supported fib entries.

$ devlink resource show netdevsim/netdevsim0
netdevsim/netdevsim0:
name IPv4 size unlimited unit entry size_min 0 size_max unlimited size_gran 1 dpipe_tables non
resources:
name fib size 96 occ 96 unit entry size_min 0 size_max unlimited size_gran 1 dpipe_tables
...

With this template in place for resource management, it is fairly trivial
to extend and shows one way to implement a simple counter based resource
controller typical of network profiles.

Currently, devlink only supports initial namespace. Code is in place to
adapt netdevsim to a per namespace controller once the network namespace
issues are resolved.

ipvlan: fix building with modular IPV6

2018-02-27T15:37:14+00:00

We no longer depend on IPV6, but that now causes a link error with
CONFIG_IPV6=m and CONFIG_IPVLAN=y:

drivers/net/ipvlan/ipvlan_core.o: In function `ipvlan_queue_xmit':
ipvlan_core.c:(.text+0x1440): undefined reference to `ip6_route_output_flags'
drivers/net/ipvlan/ipvlan_core.o: In function `ipvlan_l3_rcv':
ipvlan_core.c:(.text+0x1818): undefined reference to `ip6_route_input_lookup'

This adds back the dependency on IPV6, with the option of building without
IPV6, but forcing IPVLAN to be a module when IPV6 is a module.

and refactor series of if-else into a switch.
