ip_tunnel: convert __be16 tunnel flags to bitmaps 2024-04-01T09:49:28+00:00 Alexander Lobakin aleksander.lobakin@intel.com 2024-03-27T15:23:53+00:00 5832c4a77d6931cebf9ba737129ae8f14b66ee1d Historically, tunnel flags like TUNNEL_CSUM or TUNNEL_ERSPAN_OPT have been defined as __be16. Now all of those 16 bits are occupied and there's no more free space for new flags. It can't be simply switched to a bigger container with no adjustments to the values, since it's an explicit Endian storage, and on LE systems (__be16)0x0001 equals to (__be64)0x0001000000000000. We could probably define new 64-bit flags depending on the Endianness, i.e. (__be64)0x0001 on BE and (__be64)0x00010000... on LE, but that would introduce an Endianness dependency and spawn a ton of Sparse warnings. To mitigate them, all of those places which were adjusted with this change would be touched anyway, so why not define stuff properly if there's no choice. Define IP_TUNNEL_*_BIT counterparts as a bit number instead of the value already coded and a fistful of <16 <-> bitmap> converters and helpers. The two flags which have a different bit position are SIT_ISATAP_BIT and VTI_ISVTI_BIT, as they were defined not as __cpu_to_be16(), but as (__force __be16), i.e. had different positions on LE and BE. Now they both have strongly defined places. Change all __be16 fields which were used to store those flags, to IP_TUNNEL_DECLARE_FLAGS() -> DECLARE_BITMAP(__IP_TUNNEL_FLAG_NUM) -> unsigned long[1] for now, and replace all TUNNEL_* occurrences to their bitmap counterparts. Use the converters in the places which talk to the userspace, hardware (NFP) or other hosts (GRE header). The rest must explicitly use the new flags only.

From: Eric Garver <eric@garver.life>

This adds an explicit drop action. This is used by OVS to drop packets
for which it cannot determine what to do. An explicit action in the
kernel allows passing the reason _why_ the packet is being dropped or
zero to indicate no particular error happened (i.e: OVS intentionally
dropped the packet).

Since the error codes coming from userspace mean nothing for the kernel,
we squash all of them into only two drop reasons:
- OVS_DROP_EXPLICIT_WITH_ERROR to indicate a non-zero value was passed
- OVS_DROP_EXPLICIT to indicate a zero value was passed (no error)

e.g. trace all OVS dropped skbs

 # perf trace -e skb:kfree_skb --filter="reason >= 0x30000"
 [..]
 106.023 ping/2465 skb:kfree_skb(skbaddr: 0xffffa0e8765f2000, \
  location:0xffffffffc0d9b462, protocol: 2048, reason: 196611)

reason: 196611 --> 0x30003 (OVS_DROP_EXPLICIT)

Also, this patch allows ovs-dpctl.py to add explicit drop actions as:
  "drop"     -> implicit empty-action drop
  "drop(0)"  -> explicit non-error action drop
  "drop(42)" -> explicit error action drop

Under certain conditions with a high rate of flow rotation that may cause significant memory leak problem (2MB per second in reporter's case). The problem is also hard to mitigate, because the user doesn't have direct control over the datapath flows generated by OVS.

While parsing user-provided actions, openvswitch module may dynamically
allocate memory and store pointers in the internal copy of the actions.
So this memory has to be freed while destroying the actions.

Currently there are only two such actions: ct() and set().  However,
there are many actions that can hold nested lists of actions and
ovs_nla_free_flow_actions() just jumps over them leaking the memory.

For example, removal of the flow with the following actions will lead
to a leak of the memory allocated by nf_ct_tmpl_alloc():

  actions:clone(ct(commit),0)

Non-freed set() action may also leak the 'dst' structure for the
tunnel info including device references.

Under certain conditions with a high rate of flow rotation that may
cause significant memory leak problem (2MB per second in reporter's
case).  The problem is also hard to mitigate, because the user doesn't
have direct control over the datapath flows generated by OVS.

Fix that by iterating over all the nested actions and freeing
everything that needs to be freed recursively.

New build time assertion should protect us from this problem if new
actions will be added in the future.

Unfortunately, openvswitch module doesn't use NLA_F_NESTED, so all
attributes has to be explicitly checked.  sample() and clone() actions
are mixing extra attributes into the user-provided action list.  That
prevents some code generalization too.
