Currently each driver that is capable of vlan hardware acceleration must be aware of the vlan groups that are configured and then pass the stripped tag to a specialized receive function. This is different from other types of hardware offload in that it places a significant amount of knowledge in the driver itself rather keeping it in the networking core. This makes vlan offloading function more similarly to other forms of offloading (such as checksum offloading or TSO) by doing the following: * On receive, stripped vlans are passed directly to the network core, without attempting to check for vlan groups or reconstructing the header if no group * vlans are made less special by folding the logic into the main receive routines * On transmit, the device layer will add the vlan header in software if the hardware doesn't support it, instead of spreading that logic out in upper layers, such as bonding. There are a number of advantages to this: * Fixes all bugs with drivers incorrectly dropping vlan headers at once. * Avoids having to disable VLAN acceleration when in promiscuous mode (good for bridging since it always puts devices in promiscuous mode). * Keeps VLAN tag separate until given to ultimate consumer, which avoids needing to do header reconstruction as in tg3 unless absolutely necessary. * Consolidates common code in core networking.

Currently the UP/DOWN state of VLANs is synchronized to the state of the underlying device, meaning all VLANs are set down once the underlying device is set down. This causes all routes to the VLAN devices to vanish. Add a flag to specify a "loose binding" mode, in which only the operstate is transfered, but the VLAN device state is independant.

We currently use a 16 bit field (vlan_tci) to store VLAN ID/PRIO on a skb. Null value is used as a special value, meaning vlan tagging not enabled. This forbids use of null vlan ID. As pointed by David, some drivers use the 3 high order bits (PRIO) As VLAN ID is 12 bits, we can use the remaining bit (CFI) as a flag, and allow null VLAN ID. In case future code really wants to use VLAN_CFI_MASK, we'll have to use a bit outside of vlan_tci. #define VLAN_PRIO_MASK 0xe000 /* Priority Code Point */ #define VLAN_PRIO_SHIFT 13 #define VLAN_CFI_MASK 0x1000 /* Canonical Format Indicator */ #define VLAN_TAG_PRESENT VLAN_CFI_MASK #define VLAN_VID_MASK 0x0fff /* VLAN Identifier */ Reported-by: NGertjan Hofman <gertjan_hofman@yahoo.com> Signed-off-by: NEric Dumazet <eric.dumazet@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: NDavid S.

This patch adds GRO interfaces for hardware-assisted VLAN reception. With this in place we're now at parity with LRO as far as the interface is concerned. That is, you can now take any LRO driver and convert it over to GRO. As the CB memory clashes with GRO's use of CB, I've removed it entirely by storing dev in skb->dev. This is OK because VLAN gets called first thing in netif_receive_skb and skb->dev is not used in between us calling netif_rx and netif_receive_skb getting called.

Use a real skb member to store the skb to avoid clashes with qdiscs, which are allowed to use the cb area themselves. As currently only real devices that consume the skb set the NETIF_F_HW_VLAN_TX flag, no explicit invalidation is neccessary. The new member fills a hole on 64 bit, the skb layout changes from: __u32 mark; /* 172 4 */ sk_buff_data_t transport_header; /* 176 4 */ sk_buff_data_t network_header; /* 180 4 */ sk_buff_data_t mac_header; /* 184 4 */ sk_buff_data_t tail; /* 188 4 */ /* --- cacheline 3 boundary (192 bytes) --- */ sk_buff_data_t end; /* 192 4 */ /* XXX 4 bytes hole, try to pack */ to __u32 mark; /* 172 4 */ __u16 vlan_tci; /* 176 2 */ /* XXX 2 bytes hole, try to pack */ sk_buff_data_t transport_header; /* 180 4 */ sk_buff_data_t network_header; /* 184 4 */ Signed-off-by: NPatrick McHardy <kaber@trash.net> Signed-off-by: NDavid S.

- vlan_dev_reorder_header() is only called on the receive path after calling skb_share_check(). This means we can use skb_cow() since all we need is a writable header. - vlan_dev_hard_header() includes a work-around for some apparently broken out of tree MPLS code. The hard_header functions can expect to always have a headroom of at least there own hard_header_len available, so the reallocation check is unnecessary. - __vlan_put_tag() can use skb_cow_head() to avoid the skb_unshare() copy when the header is writable.

Add GVRP support for dynamically registering VLANs with switches. By default GVRP is disabled because we only support the applicant-only participant model, which means it should not be enabled on vlans that are members of a bridge. Since there is currently no way to cleanly determine that, the user is responsible for enabling it. The code is pretty small and low impact, its wrapped in a config option though because it depends on the GARP implementation and the STP core.

Currently vlan group is searched using one key - the ifindex. We'll have to lookup the vlan_group by two keys - ifindex and net. Turning the vlan_group lookup key to struct net_device pointer will make this process easier. Besides, this will eliminate one more place in the networking, that assumes that indexes are unique in the kernel.

Currently each vlan_groupd contains 8 pointers on arrays with 512 pointers on struct net_device each :) Such a construction "in many cases ... wastes memory". My proposal is to allow for some of these arrays pointers be NULL, meaning that there are no devices in it. When a new device is added to the vlan_group, the appropriate array is allocated. The check in vlan_group_get_device's is safe, since the pointer vg->vlan_devices_arrays[x] can only switch from NULL to not-NULL. The vlan_group_prealloc_vid() is guarded with rtnl lock and is also safe. I've checked (I hope that) all the places, that use these arrays and found, that the register_vlan_dev is the only place, that can put a vlan device on an empty vlan_group. Rough calculations shows, that after the patch a setup with a single vlan dev (or up to 512 vlans with sequential vids) will occupy approximately 8 times less memory. The question I have is - does this patch makes sense, or a totally new structures are required to store the vlan_devs?

Keep track of the number of VLAN devices in a vlan group. This allows to have the caller sense when the group is going to be destroyed and stop using it, which in turn allows to remove the wrapper around unregister_vlan_dev for the NETDEV_UNREGISTER notifier and avoid iterating over all possible VLAN ids whenever a device in unregistered. Also fix what looks like a use-after-free (but is actually safe since we're holding the RTNL), the real_dev reference should not be dropped while we still use it.

This patch makes most of the generic device layer network namespace safe. This patch makes dev_base_head a network namespace variable, and then it picks up a few associated variables. The functions: dev_getbyhwaddr dev_getfirsthwbytype dev_get_by_flags dev_get_by_name __dev_get_by_name dev_get_by_index __dev_get_by_index dev_ioctl dev_ethtool dev_load wireless_process_ioctl were modified to take a network namespace argument, and deal with it. vlan_ioctl_set and brioctl_set were modified so their hooks will receive a network namespace argument. So basically anthing in the core of the network stack that was affected to by the change of dev_base was modified to handle multiple network namespaces. The rest of the network stack was simply modified to explicitly use &init_net the initial network namespace. This can be fixed when those components of the network stack are modified to handle multiple network namespaces. For now the ifindex generator is left global. Fundametally ifindex numbers are per namespace, or else we will have corner case problems with migration when we get that far. At the same time there are assumptions in the network stack that the ifindex of a network device won't change. Making the ifindex number global seems a good compromise until the network stack can cope with ifindex changes when you change namespaces, and the like. Signed-off-by: NEric W.

The VLAN MAC address handling is broken in multiple ways. When the address differs when setting it, the real device is put in promiscous mode twice, but never taken out again. Additionally it doesn't resync when the real device's address is changed and needlessly puts it in promiscous mode when the vlan device is still down. Fix by moving address handling to vlan_dev_open/vlan_dev_stop and properly deal with address changes in the device notifier. Also switch to dev_unicast_add (which needs the exact same handling). Since the set_mac_address handler is identical to the generic ethernet one with these changes, kill it and use ether_setup().
