net: bridge: locally receive all multicast packets if IFF_ALLMULTI is set

2025-04-16T00:25:52+00:00

If multicast snooping is enabled, multicast packets may not always end up
on the local bridge interface, if the host is not a member of the multicast
group. Similar to how IFF_PROMISC allows all packets to be received
locally, let IFF_ALLMULTI allow all multicast packets to be received.

OpenWrt uses a user space daemon for DHCPv6/RA/NDP handling, and in relay
mode it sets the ALLMULTI flag in order to receive all relevant queries on
the network.

This works for normal network interfaces and non-snooping bridges, but not
snooping bridges (unless multicast routing is enabled).

net: bridge: add skb drop reasons to the most common drop points

2024-12-23T18:11:04+00:00

The bridge input code may drop frames for various reasons and at various
points in the ingress handling logic. Currently kfree_skb() is used
everywhere, and therefore no drop reason is specified. Add drop reasons
to the most common drop points.

Drop reasons are not added exhaustively to the entire bridge code. The
intention is to incrementally add drop reasons to the rest of the bridge
code in follow up patches.

netfilter: br_netfilter: skip conntrack input hook for promisc packets

2024-04-11T10:09:33+00:00

For historical reasons, when bridge device is in promisc mode, packets
that are directed to the taps follow bridge input hook path. This patch
adds a workaround to reset conntrack for these packets.

Jianbo Liu reports warning splats in their test infrastructure where
cloned packets reach the br_netfilter input hook to confirm the
conntrack object.

Scratch one bit from BR_INPUT_SKB_CB to annotate that this packet has
reached the input hook because it is passed up to the bridge device to
reach the taps.

skbuff: bridge: Add layer 2 miss indication

2023-05-31T06:37:00+00:00

For EVPN non-DF (Designated Forwarder) filtering we need to be able to
prevent decapsulated traffic from being flooded to a multi-homed host.
Filtering of multicast and broadcast traffic can be achieved using the
following flower filter:

 # tc filter add dev bond0 egress pref 1 proto all flower indev vxlan0 dst_mac 01:00:00:00:00:00/01:00:00:00:00:00 action drop

Unlike broadcast and multicast traffic, it is not currently possible to
filter unknown unicast traffic. The classification into unknown unicast
is performed by the bridge driver, but is not visible to other layers
such as tc.

Solve this by adding a new 'l2_miss' bit to the tc skb extension. Clear
the bit whenever a packet enters the bridge (received from a bridge port
or transmitted via the bridge) and set it if the packet did not match an
FDB or MDB entry. If there is no skb extension and the bit needs to be
cleared, then do not allocate one as no extension is equivalent to the
bit being cleared. The bit is not set for broadcast packets as they
never perform a lookup and therefore never incur a miss.

A bit that is set for every flooded packet would also work for the
current use case, but it does not allow us to differentiate between
registered and unregistered multicast traffic, which might be useful in
the future.

To keep the performance impact to a minimum, the marking of packets is
guarded by the 'tc_skb_ext_tc' static key. When 'false', the skb is not
touched and an skb extension is not allocated. Instead, only a
5 bytes nop is executed, as demonstrated below for the call site in
br_handle_frame().

Before the patch:

```
        memset(skb->cb, 0, sizeof(struct br_input_skb_cb));
  c37b09:       49 c7 44 24 28 00 00    movq   $0x0,0x28(%r12)
  c37b10:       00 00

        p = br_port_get_rcu(skb->dev);
  c37b12:       49 8b 44 24 10          mov    0x10(%r12),%rax
        memset(skb->cb, 0, sizeof(struct br_input_skb_cb));
  c37b17:       49 c7 44 24 30 00 00    movq   $0x0,0x30(%r12)
  c37b1e:       00 00
  c37b20:       49 c7 44 24 38 00 00    movq   $0x0,0x38(%r12)
  c37b27:       00 00
```

After the patch (when static key is disabled):

```
        memset(skb->cb, 0, sizeof(struct br_input_skb_cb));
  c37c29:       49 c7 44 24 28 00 00    movq   $0x0,0x28(%r12)
  c37c30:       00 00
  c37c32:       49 8d 44 24 28          lea    0x28(%r12),%rax
  c37c37:       48 c7 40 08 00 00 00    movq   $0x0,0x8(%rax)
  c37c3e:       00
  c37c3f:       48 c7 40 10 00 00 00    movq   $0x0,0x10(%rax)
  c37c46:       00

#ifdef CONFIG_HAVE_JUMP_LABEL_HACK

static __always_inline bool arch_static_branch(struct static_key *key, bool branch)
{
        asm_volatile_goto("1:"
  c37c47:       0f 1f 44 00 00          nopl   0x0(%rax,%rax,1)
        br_tc_skb_miss_set(skb, false);

        p = br_port_get_rcu(skb->dev);
  c37c4c:       49 8b 44 24 10          mov    0x10(%r12),%rax
```

Subsequent patches will extend the flower classifier to be able to match
on the new 'l2_miss' bit and enable / disable the static key when
filters that match on it are added / deleted.

bridge: Add MAC Authentication Bypass (MAB) support

2022-11-04T03:46:32+00:00

Hosts that support 802.1X authentication are able to authenticate
themselves by exchanging EAPOL frames with an authenticator (Ethernet
bridge, in this case) and an authentication server. Access to the
network is only granted by the authenticator to successfully
authenticated hosts.

The above is implemented in the bridge using the "locked" bridge port
option. When enabled, link-local frames (e.g., EAPOL) can be locally
received by the bridge, but all other frames are dropped unless the host
is authenticated. That is, unless the user space control plane installed
an FDB entry according to which the source address of the frame is
located behind the locked ingress port. The entry can be dynamic, in
which case learning needs to be enabled so that the entry will be
refreshed by incoming traffic.

There are deployments in which not all the devices connected to the
authenticator (the bridge) support 802.1X. Such devices can include
printers and cameras. One option to support such deployments is to
unlock the bridge ports connecting these devices, but a slightly more
secure option is to use MAB. When MAB is enabled, the MAC address of the
connected device is used as the user name and password for the
authentication.

For MAB to work, the user space control plane needs to be notified about
MAC addresses that are trying to gain access so that they will be
compared against an allow list. This can be implemented via the regular
learning process with the sole difference that learned FDB entries are
installed with a new "locked" flag indicating that the entry cannot be
used to authenticate the device. The flag cannot be set by user space,
but user space can clear the flag by replacing the entry, thereby
authenticating the device.

Locked FDB entries implement the following semantics with regards to
roaming, aging and forwarding:

1. Roaming: Locked FDB entries can roam to unlocked (authorized) ports,
   in which case the "locked" flag is cleared. FDB entries cannot roam
   to locked ports regardless of MAB being enabled or not. Therefore,
   locked FDB entries are only created if an FDB entry with the given {MAC,
   VID} does not already exist. This behavior prevents unauthenticated
   devices from disrupting traffic destined to already authenticated
   devices.

2. Aging: Locked FDB entries age and refresh by incoming traffic like
   regular entries.

3. Forwarding: Locked FDB entries forward traffic like regular entries.
   If user space detects an unauthorized MAC behind a locked port and
   wishes to prevent traffic with this MAC DA from reaching the host, it
   can do so using tc or a different mechanism.

Enable the above behavior using a new bridge port option called "mab".
It can only be enabled on a bridge port that is both locked and has
learning enabled. Locked FDB entries are flushed from the port once MAB
is disabled. A new option is added because there are pure 802.1X
deployments that are not interested in notifications about locked FDB
entries.

net: bridge: Clear offload_fwd_mark when passing frame up bridge interface.

2022-05-19T07:20:44+00:00

It is possible to stack bridges on top of each other. Consider the
following which makes use of an Ethernet switch:

       br1
     /    \
    /      \
   /        \
 br0.11    wlan0
   |
   br0
 /  |  \
p1  p2  p3

br0 is offloaded to the switch. Above br0 is a vlan interface, for
vlan 11. This vlan interface is then a slave of br1. br1 also has a
wireless interface as a slave. This setup trunks wireless lan traffic
over the copper network inside a VLAN.

A frame received on p1 which is passed up to the bridge has the
skb->offload_fwd_mark flag set to true, indicating that the switch has
dealt with forwarding the frame out ports p2 and p3 as needed. This
flag instructs the software bridge it does not need to pass the frame
back down again. However, the flag is not getting reset when the frame
is passed upwards. As a result br1 sees the flag, wrongly interprets
it, and fails to forward the frame to wlan0.

When passing a frame upwards, clear the flag. This is the Rx
equivalent of br_switchdev_frame_unmark() in br_dev_xmit().
