net: vrf: remove MTU limits for vrf device

2019-02-21T21:10:08+00:00

Similiar to commit e94cd8113ce63 ("net: remove MTU limits for dummy and
ifb device"), MTU is irrelevant for VRF device. We init it as 64K while
limit it to [68, 1500] may make users feel confused.

net: core: dev: Add extack argument to dev_change_flags()

2018-12-06T21:26:07+00:00

In order to pass extack together with NETDEV_PRE_UP notifications, it's
necessary to route the extack to __dev_open() from diverse (possibly
indirect) callers. One prominent API through which the notification is
invoked is dev_change_flags().

Therefore extend dev_change_flags() with and extra extack argument and
update all users. Most of the calls end up just encoding NULL, but
several sites (VLAN, ipvlan, VRF, rtnetlink) do have extack available.

Since the function declaration line is changed anyway, name the other
function arguments to placate checkpatch.

net: vrf: cycle_netdev(): Add an extack argument

2018-12-06T21:26:06+00:00

A follow-up patch will extend dev_change_flags() with an extack
argument. Extend cycle_netdev() to have that argument available for the
conversion.

vrf: mark skb for multicast or link-local as enslaved to VRF

2018-11-08T00:12:39+00:00

The skb for packets that are multicast or to a link-local address are
not marked as being enslaved to a VRF, if they are received on a socket
bound to the VRF. This is needed for ND and it is preferable for the
kernel not to have to deal with the additional use-cases if ll or mcast
packets are handled as enslaved. However, this does not allow service
instances listening on unbound and bound to VRF sockets to distinguish
the VRF used, if packets are sent as multicast or to a link-local
address. The fix is for the VRF driver to also mark these skb as being
enslaved to the VRF.

ipv6: add vrf table handling code for ipv6 mcast

2018-10-03T05:29:08+00:00

The code to obtain the correct table for the incoming interface was
missing for IPv6. This has been added along with the table creation
notification to fib rules for the RTNL_FAMILY_IP6MR address family.

vrf: add CRC32c offload to device features

2018-05-29T02:55:13+00:00

SCTP sockets originated in a VRF can improve their performance if CRC32c
computation is delegated to underlying devices: update device features,
setting NETIF_F_SCTP_CRC. Iterating the following command in the topology
proposed with [1],

 # ip vrf exec vrf-h2 netperf -H 192.0.2.1 -t SCTP_STREAM -- -m 10K

the measured throughput in Mbit/s improved from 2395 ± 1% to 2720 ± 1%.

vrf: Move fib6_table into net_vrf

A later patch removes rt6i_table from rt6_info. Save the ipv6
table for a VRF in net_vrf. fib tables can not be deleted so
no reference counting or locking is required.

Minor conflicts in drivers/net/ethernet/mellanox/mlx5/core/en_rep.c,
we had some overlapping changes:

1) In 'net' MLX5E_PARAMS_LOG_{SQ,RQ}_SIZE -->
   MLX5E_REP_PARAMS_LOG_{SQ,RQ}_SIZE

2) In 'net-next' params->log_rq_size is renamed to be
   params->log_rq_mtu_frames.

3) In 'net-next' params->hard_mtu is added.

vrf: Fix use after free and double free in vrf_finish_output

2018-03-30T18:20:23+00:00

Miguel reported an skb use after free / double free in vrf_finish_output
when neigh_output returns an error. The vrf driver should return after
the call to neigh_output as it takes over the skb on error path as well.

Patch is a simplified version of Miguel's patch which was written for 4.9,
and updated to top of tree.
