openvswitch: Add SCTP support

2013-08-26T21:03:13+00:00

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.

openvswitch: Mega flow implementation

2013-08-23T23:43:07+00:00

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.

openvswitch: Reset tunnel key between input and output.

2013-08-14T22:50:36+00:00

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.

net: vlan: add protocol argument to packet tagging functions

2013-04-19T18:46:06+00:00

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.

openvswitch: fix the calculation of checksum for vlan header

2013-02-23T01:02:38+00:00

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.

Merge git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/davem/net

2012-09-15T15:43:53+00:00

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.
