vlan: Fix vlan insertion for packets without ethernet header

2018-03-30T16:36:27+00:00

In some situation vlan packets do not have ethernet headers. One example
is packets from tun devices. Users can specify vlan protocol in tun_pi
field instead of IP protocol. When we have a vlan device with reorder_hdr
disabled on top of the tun device, such packets from tun devices are
untagged in skb_vlan_untag() and vlan headers will be inserted back in
vlan_insert_inner_tag().

vlan_insert_inner_tag() however did not expect packets without ethernet
headers, so in such a case size argument for memmove() underflowed.

We don't need to copy headers for packets which do not have preceding
headers of vlan headers, so skip memmove() in that case.
Also don't write vlan protocol in skb->data when it does not have enough
room for it.

vlan: Fix out of order vlan headers with reorder header off

2018-03-16T14:03:47+00:00

With reorder header off, received packets are untagged in skb_vlan_untag()
called from within __netif_receive_skb_core(), and later the tag will be
inserted back in vlan_do_receive().

This caused out of order vlan headers when we create a vlan device on top
of another vlan device, because vlan_do_receive() inserts a tag as the
outermost vlan tag. E.g. the outer tag is first removed in skb_vlan_untag()
and inserted back in vlan_do_receive(), then the inner tag is next removed
and inserted back as the outermost tag.

This patch fixes the behaviour by inserting the inner tag at the right
position.

networking: make skb_push & __skb_push return void pointers

2017-06-16T15:48:40+00:00

It seems like a historic accident that these return unsigned char *,
and in many places that means casts are required, more often than not.

Make these functions return void * and remove all the casts across
the tree, adding a (u8 *) cast only where the unsigned char pointer
was used directly, all done with the following spatch:

    @@
    expression SKB, LEN;
    typedef u8;
    identifier fn = { skb_push, __skb_push, skb_push_rcsum };
    @@
    - *(fn(SKB, LEN))
    + *(u8 *)fn(SKB, LEN)

    @@
    expression E, SKB, LEN;
    identifier fn = { skb_push, __skb_push, skb_push_rcsum };
    type T;
    @@
    - E = ((T *)(fn(SKB, LEN)))
    + E = fn(SKB, LEN)

    @@
    expression SKB, LEN;
    identifier fn = { skb_push, __skb_push, skb_push_rcsum };
    @@
    - fn(SKB, LEN)[0]
    + *(u8 *)fn(SKB, LEN)

Note that the last part there converts from push(...)[0] to the
more idiomatic *(u8 *)push(...).

vlan: Fix tcp checksum offloads in Q-in-Q vlans

2017-05-24T20:27:14+00:00

It appears that TCP checksum offloading has been broken for
Q-in-Q vlans.  The behavior was execerbated by the
series
    commit afb0bc972b52 ("Merge branch 'stacked_vlan_tso'")
that that enabled accleleration features on stacked vlans.

However, event without that series, it is possible to trigger
this issue.  It just requires a lot more specialized configuration.

The root cause is the interaction between how
netdev_intersect_features() works, the features actually set on
the vlan devices and HW having the ability to run checksum with
longer headers.

The issue starts when netdev_interesect_features() replaces
NETIF_F_HW_CSUM with a combination of NETIF_F_IP_CSUM | NETIF_F_IPV6_CSUM,
if the HW advertises IP|IPV6 specific checksums.  This happens
for tagged and multi-tagged packets.   However, HW that enables
IP|IPV6 checksum offloading doesn't gurantee that packets with
arbitrarily long headers can be checksummed.

This patch disables IP|IPV6 checksums on the packet for multi-tagged
packets.

vxlan: avoid vlan processing in vxlan device.

2016-11-15T17:16:13+00:00

VxLan device does not have special handling for vlan taging on egress.
Therefore it does not make sense to expose vlan offloading feature.
This patch does not change vxlan functinality.

vlan: Check for vlan ethernet types for 8021.q or 802.1ad

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

This is to simplify using double tagged vlans. This function allows all
valid vlan ethertypes to be checked in a single function call.
Also replace some instances that check for both ETH_P_8021Q and
ETH_P_8021AD.

Patch based on one originally by Thomas F Herbert.

flow_dissector: Get vlan priority in addition to vlan id

2016-08-19T06:13:13+00:00

Add vlan priority check to the flow dissector by adding new flow
dissector struct, flow_dissector_key_vlan which includes vlan tag
fields.

vlan_id and flow_label fields were under the same struct
(flow_dissector_key_tags). It was a convenient setting since struct
flow_dissector_key_tags is used by struct flow_keys and by setting
vlan_id and flow_label under the same struct, we get precisely 24 or 48
bytes in flow_keys from flow_dissector_key_basic.

Now, when adding vlan priority support, the code will be cleaner if
flow_label and vlan tag won't be under the same struct anymore.

net: Eliminate NETIF_F_GEN_CSUM and NETIF_F_V[46]_CSUM

2015-12-15T21:50:20+00:00

These netif flags are unnecessary convolutions. It is more
straightforward to just use NETIF_F_HW_CSUM, NETIF_F_IP_CSUM,
and NETIF_F_IPV6_CSUM directly.

    - Cleans up can_checksum_protocol

vlan: Add GRO support for non hardware accelerated vlan

2015-06-01T23:50:52+00:00

Currently packets with non-hardware-accelerated vlan cannot be handled
by GRO. This causes low performance for 802.1ad and stacked vlan, as their
vlan tags are currently not stripped by hardware.

This patch adds GRO support for non-hardware-accelerated vlan and
improves receive performance of them.

Test Environment:
 vlan device (.1Q) on vlan device (.1ad) on ixgbe (82599)
