openvswitch: add Ethernet push and pop actions

2016-11-13T05:51:02+00:00

It's not allowed to push Ethernet header in front of another Ethernet
header.

It's not allowed to pop Ethernet header if there's a vlan tag. This
preserves the invariant that L3 packet never has a vlan tag.

Based on previous versions by Lorand Jakab and Simon Horman.

openvswitch: pass mac_proto to ovs_vport_send

2016-11-13T05:51:02+00:00

We'll need it to alter packets sent to ARPHRD_NONE interfaces.

Change do_output() to use the actual L2 header size of the packet when
deciding on the minimum cutlen. The assumption here is that what matters is
not the output interface hard_header_len but rather the L2 header of the
particular packet. For example, ARPHRD_NONE tunnels that encapsulate
Ethernet should get at least the Ethernet header.

openvswitch: add mac_proto field to the flow key

2016-11-13T05:51:02+00:00

Use a hole in the structure. We support only Ethernet so far and will add
a support for L2-less packets shortly. We could use a bool to indicate
whether the Ethernet header is present or not but the approach with the
mac_proto field is more generic and occupies the same number of bytes in the
struct, while allowing later extensibility. It also makes the code in the
next patches more self explaining.

It would be nice to use ARPHRD_ constants but those are u16 which would be
waste. Thus define our own constants.

Another upside of this is that we can overload this new field to also denote
whether the flow key is valid. This has the advantage that on
refragmentation, we don't have to reparse the packet but can rely on the
stored eth.type. This is especially important for the next patches in this
series - instead of adding another branch for L2-less packets before calling
ovs_fragment, we can just remove all those branches completely.

openvswitch: use hard_header_len instead of hardcoded ETH_HLEN

2016-11-13T05:51:02+00:00

On tx, use hard_header_len while deciding whether to refragment or drop the
packet. That way, all combinations are calculated correctly:

* L2 packet going to L2 interface (the L2 header len is subtracted),
* L2 packet going to L3 interface (the L2 header is included in the packet
  lenght),
* L3 packet going to L3 interface.

openvswitch: correctly fragment packet with mpls headers

2016-10-12T05:42:52+00:00

If mpls headers were pushed to a defragmented packet, the refragmentation no
longer works correctly after 48d2ab609b6b ("net: mpls: Fixups for GSO"). The
network header has to be shifted after the mpls headers for the
fragmentation and restored afterwards.

openvswitch: avoid deferred execution of recirc actions

2016-09-16T00:35:52+00:00

The ovs kernel data path currently defers the execution of all
recirc actions until stack utilization is at a minimum.
This is too limiting for some packet forwarding scenarios due to
the small size of the deferred action FIFO (10 entries). For
example, broadcast traffic sent out more than 10 ports with
recirculation results in packet drops when the deferred action
FIFO becomes full, as reported here:

     http://openvswitch.org/pipermail/dev/2016-March/067672.html

Since the current recursion depth is available (it is already tracked
by the exec_actions_level pcpu variable), we can use it to determine
whether to execute recirculation actions immediately (safe when
recursion depth is low) or defer execution until more stack space is
available.

With this change, the deferred action fifo size becomes a non-issue
for currently failing scenarios because it is no longer used when
there are three or fewer recursions through ovs_execute_actions().

openvswitch: 802.1AD Flow handling, actions, vlan parsing, netlink attributes

2016-09-09T00:10:28+00:00

Add support for 802.1ad including the ability to push and pop double
tagged vlans. Add support for 802.1ad to netlink parsing and flow
conversion. Uses double nested encap attributes to represent double
tagged vlan. Inner TPID encoded along with ctci in nested attributes.

This is based on Thomas F Herbert's original v20 patch. I made some
small clean ups and bug fixes.

net: mpls: Fixups for GSO

2016-08-31T05:27:18+00:00

As reported by Lennert the MPLS GSO code is failing to properly segment
large packets. There are a couple of problems:

1. the inner protocol is not set so the gso segment functions for inner
   protocol layers are not getting run, and

2  MPLS labels for packets that use the "native" (non-OVS) MPLS code
   are not properly accounted for in mpls_gso_segment.

The MPLS GSO code was added for OVS. It is re-using skb_mac_gso_segment
to call the gso segment functions for the higher layer protocols. That
means skb_mac_gso_segment is called twice -- once with the network
protocol set to MPLS and again with the network protocol set to the
inner protocol.

This patch sets the inner skb protocol addressing item 1 above and sets
the network_header and inner_network_header to mark where the MPLS labels
start and end. The MPLS code in OVS is also updated to set the two
network markers.

>From there the MPLS GSO code uses the difference between the network
header and the inner network header to know the size of the MPLS header
that was pushed. It then pulls the MPLS header, resets the mac_len and
protocol for the inner protocol and then calls skb_mac_gso_segment
to segment the skb.

Afterward the inner protocol segmentation is done the skb protocol
is set to mpls for each segment and the network and mac headers
restored.
