2014-07-24openvswitch: Add skb_clone NULL check for the sampling action.Andy Zhou1-0/+2
Fix a bug where skb_clone() NULL check is missing in sample action implementation. Signed-off-by: Andy Zhou <azhou@nicira.com> Signed-off-by: Pravin B Shelar <pshelar@nicira.com>
2014-07-24openvswitch: Sample action without side effectsSimon Horman1-11/+37
The sample action is rather generic, allowing arbitrary actions to be executed based on a probability. However its use, within the Open vSwitch code-base is limited: only a single user-space action is ever nested. A consequence of the current implementation of sample actions is that depending on weather the sample action executed (due to its probability) any side-effects of nested actions may or may not be present before executing subsequent actions. This has the potential to complicate verification of valid actions by the (kernel) datapath. And indeed adding support for push and pop MPLS actions inside sample actions is one case where such case. In order to allow all supported actions to be continue to be nested inside sample actions without the potential need for complex verification code this patch changes the implementation of the sample action in the kernel datapath so that sample actions are more like a function call and any side effects of nested actions are not present when executing subsequent actions. With the above in mind the motivation for this change is twofold: * To contain side-effects the sample action in the hope of making it easier to deal with in the future and; * To avoid some rather complex verification code introduced in the MPLS datapath patch.

2014-06-29openvswitch: Fix a double free bug for the sample actionAndy Zhou1-0/+2
When sample action returns with an error, the skb has already been freed. This patch fix a bug to make sure we don't free it again.

2014-01-14net: replace macros net_random and net_srandom with direct calls to prandomAruna-Hewapathirane1-1/+1
This patch removes the net_random and net_srandom macros and replaces them with direct calls to the prandom ones. As new commits only seem to use prandom_u32 there is no use to keep them around. This change makes it easier to grep for users of prandom_u32.

2013-12-17net: Add utility functions to clear rxhashTom Herbert1-5/+5
In several places 'skb->rxhash = 0' is being done to clear the rxhash value in an skb. This does not clear l4_rxhash which could still be set so that the rxhash wouldn't be recalculated on subsequent call to skb_get_rxhash. This patch adds an explict function to clear all the rxhash related information in the skb properly. skb_clear_hash_if_not_l4 clears the rxhash only if it is not marked as l4_rxhash. Fixed up places where 'skb->rxhash = 0' was being called. Signed-off-by: Tom Herbert <therbert@google.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2013-08-26openvswitch: Add SCTP supportJoe Stringer1-0/+39
This patch adds support for rewriting SCTP src,dst ports similar to the functionality already available for TCP/UDP. Rewriting SCTP ports is expensive due to double-recalculation of the SCTP checksums; this is performed to ensure that packets traversing OVS with invalid checksums will continue to the destination with any checksum corruption intact.

2013-08-23openvswitch: Mega flow implementationAndy Zhou1-2/+4
Add wildcarded flow support in kernel datapath. Wildcarded flow can improve OVS flow set up performance by avoid sending matching new flows to the user space program. The exact performance boost will largely dependent on wildcarded flow hit rate. In case all new flows hits wildcard flows, the flow set up rate is within 5% of that of linux bridge module. Pravin has made significant contributions to this patch. Including API clean ups and bug fixes.

2013-08-14openvswitch: Reset tunnel key between input and output.Jesse Gross1-0/+1
It doesn't make sense to output a tunnel packet using the same parameters that it was received with since that will generally just result in the packet going back to us. As a result, userspace assumes that the tunnel key is cleared when transitioning through the switch. In the majority of cases this doesn't matter since a packet is either going to a tunnel port (in which the key is overwritten with new values) or to a non-tunnel port (in which case the key is ignored). However, it's theoreticaly possible that userspace could rely on the documented behavior, so this corrects it. Signed-off-by: Jesse Gross <jesse@nicira.com>

2013-04-19net: vlan: add protocol argument to packet tagging functionsPatrick McHardy1-3/+3
Add a protocol argument to the VLAN packet tagging functions. In case of HW tagging, we need that protocol available in the ndo_start_xmit functions, so it is stored in a new field in the skb. The new field fits into a hole (on 64 bit) and doesn't increase the sks's size. Signed-off-by: Patrick McHardy <kaber@trash.net> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2013-02-22openvswitch: fix the calculation of checksum for vlan headerCong Wang1-2/+2
In vlan_insert_tag(), we insert a 4-byte VLAN header _after_ mac header: memmove(skb->data, skb->data + VLAN_HLEN, 2 * ETH_ALEN); ... veth->h_vlan_proto = htons(ETH_P_8021Q); ... veth->h_vlan_TCI = htons(vlan_tci); so after it, we should recompute the checksum to include these 4 bytes. skb->data still points to the mac header, therefore VLAN header is at (2 * ETH_ALEN = 12) bytes after it, not (ETH_HLEN = 14) bytes. This can also be observed via tcpdump: 0x0000: ffff ffff ffff 5254 005d 6f6e 8100 000a 0x0010: 0806 0001 0800 0604 0001 5254 005d 6f6e 0x0020: c0a8 026e 0000 0000 0000 c0a8 0282 Similar for __pop_vlan_tci(), the vlan header we remove is the one overwritten in: memmove(skb->data + VLAN_HLEN, skb->data, 2 * ETH_ALEN); Therefore the VLAN_HLEN = 4 bytes after 2 * ETH_ALEN is the part we want to sub from checksum.

Conflicts: net/netfilter/nfnetlink_log.c net/netfilter/xt_LOG.c Rather easy conflict resolution, the 'net' tree had bug fixes to make sure we checked if a socket is a time-wait one or not and elide the logging code if so. Whereas on the 'net-next' side we are calculating the UID and GID from the creds using different interfaces due to the user namespace changes from Eric Biederman. Signed-off-by: David S.

2012-09-10netlink: Rename pid to portid to avoid confusionEric W. Biederman1-2/+2
It is a frequent mistake to confuse the netlink port identifier with a process identifier. Try to reduce this confusion by renaming fields that hold port identifiers portid instead of pid. I have carefully avoided changing the structures exported to userspace to avoid changing the userspace API. I have successfully built an allyesconfig kernel with this change. Signed-off-by: "Eric W.

2012-07-27Revert "openvswitch: potential NULL deref in sample()"Jesse Gross1-3/+0
This reverts commit 5b3e7e6cb5771bedda51cdb6f715d1da8cd9e644. The problem that the original commit was attempting to fix can never happen in practice because validation is done one a per-flow basis rather than a per-packet basis. Adding additional checks at runtime is unnecessary and inconsistent with the rest of the code.

2012-03-07openvswitch: Fix checksum update for actions on UDP packets.Jesse Gross1-12/+32
When modifying IP addresses or ports on a UDP packet we don't correctly follow the rules for unchecksummed packets. This meant that packets without a checksum can be given a incorrect new checksum and packets with a checksum can become marked as being unchecksummed. This fixes it to handle those requirements.

2011-12-03net: Add Open vSwitch kernel components.Jesse Gross1-0/+415
Open vSwitch is a multilayer Ethernet switch targeted at virtualized environments. In addition to supporting a variety of features expected in a traditional hardware switch, it enables fine-grained programmatic extension and flow-based control of the network. This control is useful in a wide variety of applications but is particularly important in multi-server virtualization deployments, which are often characterized by highly dynamic endpoints and the need to maintain logical abstractions for multiple tenants. The Open vSwitch datapath provides an in-kernel fast path for packet forwarding. It is complemented by a userspace daemon, ovs-vswitchd, which is able to accept configuration from a variety of sources and translate it into packet processing rules. See http://openvswitch.org for more information and userspace utilities. Signed-off-by: Jesse Gross <jesse@nicira.com>
