Revert "openvswitch: Add erspan tunnel support."

2018-01-15T19:33:16+00:00

This reverts commit ceaa001a170e43608854d5290a48064f57b565ed.

The OVS_TUNNEL_KEY_ATTR_ERSPAN_OPTS attr should be designed
as a nested attribute to support all ERSPAN v1 and v2's fields.
The current attr is a be32 supporting only one field.  Thus, this
patch reverts it and later patch will redo it using nested attr.

openvswitch: fix the incorrect flow action alloc size

2017-11-26T23:34:59+00:00

If we want to add a datapath flow, which has more than 500 vxlan outputs'
action, we will get the following error reports:
  openvswitch: netlink: Flow action size 32832 bytes exceeds max
  openvswitch: netlink: Flow action size 32832 bytes exceeds max
  openvswitch: netlink: Actions may not be safe on all matching packets
  ... ...

It seems that we can simply enlarge the MAX_ACTIONS_BUFSIZE to fix it, but
this is not the root cause. For example, for a vxlan output action, we need
about 60 bytes for the nlattr, but after it is converted to the flow
action, it only occupies 24 bytes. This means that we can still support
more than 1000 vxlan output actions for a single datapath flow under the
the current 32k max limitation.

So even if the nla_len(attr) is larger than MAX_ACTIONS_BUFSIZE, we
shouldn't report EINVAL and keep it move on, as the judgement can be
done by the reserve_sfa_size.

patch series, this patch is to enable NSH support
in kernel data path in order that OVS can support
NSH in compat mode by porting this.

openvswitch: add ct_clear action

2017-10-10T23:38:34+00:00

This adds a ct_clear action for clearing conntrack state. ct_clear is
currently implemented in OVS userspace, but is not backed by an action
in the kernel datapath. This is useful for flows that may modify a
packet tuple after a ct lookup has already occurred.

net: store port/representator id in metadata_dst

2017-06-25T15:42:01+00:00

Switches and modern SR-IOV enabled NICs may multiplex traffic from Port
representators and control messages over single set of hardware queues.
Control messages and muxed traffic may need ordered delivery.

Those requirements make it hard to comfortably use TC infrastructure today
unless we have a way of attaching metadata to skbs at the upper device.
Because single set of queues is used for many netdevs stopping TC/sched
queues of all of them reliably is impossible and lower device has to
retreat to returning NETDEV_TX_BUSY and usually has to take extra locks on
the fastpath.

This patch attempts to enable port/representative devs to attach metadata
to skbs which carry port id.  This way representatives can be queueless and
all queuing can be performed at the lower netdev in the usual way.

Traffic arriving on the port/representative interfaces will be have
metadata attached and will subsequently be queued to the lower device for
transmission.  The lower device should recognize the metadata and translate
it to HW specific format which is most likely either a special header
inserted before the network headers or descriptor/metadata fields.

Metadata is associated with the lower device by storing the netdev pointer
along with port id so that if TC decides to redirect or mirror the new
netdev will not try to interpret it.

This is mostly for SR-IOV devices since switches don't have lower netdevs
today.
