2015-01-15openvswitch: Rename GENEVE_TUN_OPTS() to TUN_METADATA_OPTS()Thomas Graf3-41/+47
Also factors out Geneve validation code into a new separate function validate_and_copy_geneve_opts(). A subsequent patch will introduce VXLAN options. Rename the existing GENEVE_TUN_OPTS() to reflect its extended purpose of carrying generic tunnel metadata options. Signed-off-by: Thomas Graf <tgraf@suug.ch> Signed-off-by: David S.

2015-01-15vxlan: Only bind to sockets with compatible flags enabledThomas Graf2-11/+21
A VXLAN net_device looking for an appropriate socket may only consider a socket which has a matching set of flags/extensions enabled. If incompatible flags are enabled, return a conflict to have the caller create a distinct socket with distinct port. The OVS VXLAN port is kept unaware of extensions at this point.

2015-01-15vxlan: Group Policy extensionThomas Graf4-21/+152
Implements supports for the Group Policy VXLAN extension [0] to provide a lightweight and simple security label mechanism across network peers based on VXLAN. The security context and associated metadata is mapped to/from skb->mark. This allows further mapping to a SELinux context using SECMARK, to implement ACLs directly with nftables, iptables, OVS, tc, etc. The group membership is defined by the lower 16 bits of skb->mark, the upper 16 bits are used for flags. SELinux allows to manage label to secure local resources. However, distributed applications require ACLs to implemented across hosts. This is typically achieved by matching on L2-L4 fields to identify the original sending host and process on the receiver. On top of that, netlabel and specifically CIPSO [1] allow to map security contexts to universal labels. However, netlabel and CIPSO are relatively complex. This patch provides a lightweight alternative for overlay network environments with a trusted underlay. No additional control protocol is required.

A Linux VXLAN socket will drop VXLAN-GBP frames. The extension is therefore disabled by default and needs to be specifically enabled: ip link add [...] type vxlan [...] gbp In a mixed environment with VXLAN and VXLAN-GBP sockets, the GBP socket must run on a separate port number.

Tom Herbert says: ==================== net: Remote checksum offload for VXLAN This patch set adds support for remote checksum offload in VXLAN. The remote checksum offload is generalized by creating a common function (remcsum_adjust) that does the work of modifying the checksum in remote checksum offload. This function can be called from normal or GRO path. GUE was modified to use this function. To support RCO is VXLAN we use the 9th bit in the reserved flags to indicated remote checksum offload. The start and offset values are encoded n a compressed form in the low order (reserved) byte of the vni field. Remote checksum offload is described in https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-herbert-remotecsumoffload-01 Changes in v2: - Add udp_offload_callbacks which has GRO functions that take a udp_offload pointer argument. This argument can be used to retrieve a per port structure of the encapsulation for use in gro processing (mostly by doing container_of on the structure). - Use the 10th bit in VXLAN flags for RCO which does not seem to conflict with other proposals at this time (ie. VXLAN-GPE and VXLAN-GPB) - Require that RCO must be explicitly enabled on the receiver as well as the sender. Tested by running 200 TCP_STREAM connections with VXLAN (over IPv4).

2015-01-14vxlan: Remote checksum offloadTom Herbert3-6/+198
Add support for remote checksum offload in VXLAN. This uses a reserved bit to indicate that RCO is being done, and uses the low order reserved eight bits of the VNI to hold the start and offset values in a compressed manner. Start is encoded in the low order seven bits of VNI. This is start >> 1 so that the checksum start offset is 0-254 using even values only. Checksum offset (transport checksum field) is indicated in the high order bit in the low order byte of the VNI. If the bit is set, the checksum field is for UDP (so offset = start + 6), else checksum field is for TCP (so offset = start + 16). Only TCP and UDP are supported in this implementation. Remote checksum offload for VXLAN is described in: https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-herbert-vxlan-rco-00 Tested by running 200 TCP_STREAM connections with VXLAN (over IPv4).

2015-01-14neighbour: fix base_reachable_time(_ms) not effective immediatly when changedJean-Francois Remy1-0/+44
When setting base_reachable_time or base_reachable_time_ms on a specific interface through sysctl or netlink, the reachable_time value is not updated. This means that neighbour entries will continue to be updated using the old value until it is recomputed in neigh_period_work (which recomputes the value every 300*HZ). On systems with HZ equal to 1000 for instance, it means 5mins before the change is effective. This patch changes this behavior by recomputing reachable_time after each set on base_reachable_time or base_reachable_time_ms. The new value will become effective the next time the neighbour's timer is triggered. Changes are made in two places: the netlink code for set and the sysctl handling code. For sysctl, I use a proc_handler. The ipv6 network code does provide its own handler but it already refreshes reachable_time correctly so it's not an issue. Any other user of neighbour which provide its own handlers must refresh reachable_time. Signed-off-by: Jean-Francois Remy <jeff@melix.org> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2015-01-14net: fec: fix MDIO bus assignement for dual fec SoC'sStefan Agner4-4/+37
On i.MX28, the MDIO bus is shared between the two FEC instances. The driver makes sure that the second FEC uses the MDIO bus of the first FEC. This is done conditionally if FEC_QUIRK_ENET_MAC is set. However, in newer designs, such as Vybrid or i.MX6SX, each FEC MAC has its own MDIO bus. Simply removing the quirk FEC_QUIRK_ENET_MAC is not an option since other logic, triggered by this quirk, is still needed. Furthermore, there are board designs which use the same MDIO bus for both PHY's even though the second bus would be available on the SoC side. Such layout are popular since it saves pins on SoC side. Due to the above quirk, those boards currently do work fine. The boards in the mainline tree with such a layout are: - Freescale Vybrid Tower with TWR-SER2 (vf610-twr.dts) - Freescale i.MX6 SoloX SDB Board (imx6sx-sdb.dts) This patch adds a new quirk FEC_QUIRK_SINGLE_MDIO for i.MX28, which makes sure that the MDIO bus of the first FEC is used in any case. However, the boards above do have a SoC with a MDIO bus for each FEC instance. But the PHY's are not connected in a 1:1 configuration. A proper device tree description is needed to allow the driver to figure out where to find its PHY. This patch fixes that shortcoming by adding a MDIO bus child node to the first FEC instance, along with the two PHY's on that bus, and making use of the phy-handle property to add a reference to the PHY's.

2015-01-14net/macb: improved ethtool statistics supportXander Huff2-4/+307
Currently `ethtool -S` simply returns "no stats available". It would be more useful to see what the various ethtool statistics registers' values are. This change implements get_ethtool_stats, get_strings, and get_sset_count functions to accomplish this. Read all GEM statistics registers and sum them into macb.ethtool_stats. Add the necessary infrastructure to make this accessible via `ethtool -S`. Update gem_update_stats to utilize ethtool_stats. Signed-off-by: Xander Huff <xander.huff@ni.com> Signed-off-by: David S.
