2015-08-31ip-tunnel: Use API to access tunnel metadata options.Pravin B Shelar
Currently tun-info options pointer is used in few cases to pass options around. But tunnel options can be accessed using ip_tunnel_info_opts() API without using the pointer. Following patch removes the redundant pointer and consistently make use of API.

2015-08-27openvswitch: Allow matching on conntrack labelJoe Stringer
Allow matching and setting the ct_label field. As with ct_mark, this is populated by executing the CT action. The label field may be modified by specifying a label and mask nested under the CT action. It is stored as metadata attached to the connection. Label modification occurs after lookup, and will only persist when the conntrack entry is committed by providing the COMMIT flag to the CT action. Labels are currently fixed to 128 bits in size.

2015-08-27openvswitch: Allow matching on conntrack markJoe Stringer
Allow matching and setting the ct_mark field. As with ct_state and ct_zone, these fields are populated when the CT action is executed. To write to this field, a value and mask can be specified as a nested attribute under the CT action. This data is stored with the conntrack entry, and is executed after the lookup occurs for the CT action. The conntrack entry itself must be committed using the COMMIT flag in the CT action flags for this change to persist.

2015-08-27openvswitch: Add conntrack actionJoe Stringer
Expose the kernel connection tracker via OVS. Userspace components can make use of the CT action to populate the connection state (ct_state) field for a flow. This state can be subsequently matched. Exposed connection states are OVS_CS_F_*: - NEW (0x01) - Beginning of a new connection. - ESTABLISHED (0x02) - Part of an existing connection. - RELATED (0x04) - Related to an established connection. - INVALID (0x20) - Could not track the connection for this packet. - REPLY_DIR (0x40) - This packet is in the reply direction for the flow. - TRACKED (0x80) - This packet has been sent through conntrack. When the CT action is executed by itself, it will send the packet through the connection tracker and populate the ct_state field with one or more of the connection state flags above. The CT action will always set the TRACKED bit. When the COMMIT flag is passed to the conntrack action, this specifies that information about the connection should be stored. This allows subsequent packets for the same (or related) connections to be correlated with this connection. Sending subsequent packets for the connection through conntrack allows the connection tracker to consider the packets as ESTABLISHED, RELATED, and/or REPLY_DIR. The CT action may optionally take a zone to track the flow within. This allows connections with the same 5-tuple to be kept logically separate from connections in other zones. If the zone is specified, then the "ct_zone" match field will be subsequently populated with the zone id. IP fragments are handled by transparently assembling them as part of the CT action. The maximum received unit (MRU) size is tracked so that refragmentation can occur during output. IP frag handling contributed by Andy Zhou. Based on original design by Justin Pettit.

2015-02-07net: openvswitch: Support masked set actions.Jarno Rajahalme
OVS userspace already probes the openvswitch kernel module for OVS_ACTION_ATTR_SET_MASKED support. This patch adds the kernel module implementation of masked set actions. The existing set action sets many fields at once. When only a subset of the IP header fields, for example, should be modified, all the IP fields need to be exact matched so that the other field values can be copied to the set action. A masked set action allows modification of an arbitrary subset of the supported header bits without requiring the rest to be matched. Masked set action is now supported for all writeable key types, except for the tunnel key. The set tunnel action is an exception as any input tunnel info is cleared before action processing starts, so there is no tunnel info to mask. The kernel module converts all (non-tunnel) set actions to masked set actions. This makes action processing more uniform, and results in less branching and duplicating the action processing code. When returning actions to userspace, the fully masked set actions are converted back to normal set actions. We use a kernel internal action code to be able to tell the userspace provided and converted masked set actions apart.

2014-08-22openvswitch: fix panic with multiple vlan headersJiri Benc
When there are multiple vlan headers present in a received frame, the first one is put into vlan_tci and protocol is set to ETH_P_8021Q. Anything in the skb beyond the VLAN TPID may be still non-linear, including the inner TCI and ethertype. While ovs_flow_extract takes care of IP and IPv6 headers, it does nothing with ETH_P_8021Q. Later, if OVS_ACTION_ATTR_POP_VLAN is executed, __pop_vlan_tci pulls the next vlan header into vlan_tci. This leads to two things: 1. Part of the resulting ethernet header is in the non-linear part of the skb. When eth_type_trans is called later as the result of OVS_ACTION_ATTR_OUTPUT, kernel BUGs in __skb_pull. Also, __pop_vlan_tci is in fact accessing random data when it reads past the TPID. 2. network_header points into the ethernet header instead of behind it. mac_len is set to a wrong value (10), too.

2014-07-24openvswitch: Sample action without side effectsSimon Horman
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.

2013-08-14openvswitch: Reset tunnel key between input and output.Jesse Gross
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>

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>
