      rtnelink: remove unused parameter from rtnl_create_link(). · c0713563
      Rami Rosen 提交于
      This patch removes an unused parameter (src_net) from rtnl_create_link()
      method and from the method single invocation, in veth.
      This parameter was used in the past when calling
      ops->get_tx_queues(src_net, tb) in rtnl_create_link().
      The get_tx_queues() member of rtnl_link_ops was replaced by two methods,
      get_num_tx_queues() and get_num_rx_queues(), which do not get any
      parameter. This was done in commit d40156aa by
      Jiri Pirko ("rtnl: allow to specify different num for rx and tx queue count").

      ixgbe: add setlink, getlink support to ixgbe and ixgbevf · 815cccbf
      John Fastabend 提交于
      This adds support for the net device ops to manage the embedded
      hardware bridge on ixgbe devices. With this patch the bridge
      mode can be toggled between VEB and VEPA to support stacking
      macvlan devices or using the embedded switch without any SW
      component in 802.1Qbg/br environments.
      
      Additionally, this adds source address pruning to the ixgbevf
      driver to prune any frames sent back from a reflective relay on
      the switch. This is required because the existing hardware does
      not support this. Without it frames get pushed into the stack
      with its own src mac which is invalid per 802.1Qbg VEPA
      definition.

      net: set and query VEB/VEPA bridge mode via PF_BRIDGE · 2469ffd7
      John Fastabend 提交于
      Hardware switches may support enabling and disabling the
      loopback switch which puts the device in a VEPA mode defined
      in the IEEE 802.1Qbg specification. In this mode frames are
      not switched in the hardware but sent directly to the switch.
      SR-IOV capable NICs will likely support this mode I am
      aware of at least two such devices. Also I am told (but don't
      have any of this hardware available) that there are devices
      that only support VEPA modes. In these cases it is important
      at a minimum to be able to query these attributes.
      
      This patch adds an additional IFLA_BRIDGE_MODE attribute that can be
      set and dumped via the PF_BRIDGE:{SET|GET}LINK operations. Also
      anticipating bridge attributes that may be common for both embedded
      bridges and software bridges this adds a flags attribute
      IFLA_BRIDGE_FLAGS currently used to determine if the command or event
      is being generated to/from an embedded bridge or software bridge.
      Finally, the event generation is pulled out of the bridge module and
      into rtnetlink proper.
      
      For example using the macvlan driver in VEPA mode on top of
      an embedded switch requires putting the embedded switch into
      a VEPA mode to get the expected results.
      
      	--------  --------
              | VEPA |  | VEPA |       <-- macvlan vepa edge relays
              --------  --------
                 |        |
                 |        |
              ------------------
              |      VEPA      |       <-- embedded switch in NIC
              ------------------
                      |
                      |
              -------------------
              | external switch |      <-- shiny new physical
      	-------------------          switch with VEPA support
      
      A packet sent from the macvlan VEPA at the top could be
      loopbacked on the embedded switch and never seen by the
      external switch. So in order for this to work the embedded
      switch needs to be set in the VEPA state via the above
      described commands.
      
      By making these attributes nested in IFLA_AF_SPEC we allow
      future extensions to be made as needed.

      net: remove delay at device dismantle · 0115e8e3
      Eric Dumazet 提交于
      I noticed extra one second delay in device dismantle, tracked down to
      a call to dst_dev_event() while some call_rcu() are still in RCU queues.
      
      These call_rcu() were posted by rt_free(struct rtable *rt) calls.
      
      We then wait a little (but one second) in netdev_wait_allrefs() before
      kicking again NETDEV_UNREGISTER.
      
      As the call_rcu() are now completed, dst_dev_event() can do the needed
      device swap on busy dst.
      
      To solve this problem, add a new NETDEV_UNREGISTER_FINAL, called
      after a rcu_barrier(), but outside of RTNL lock.
      
      Use NETDEV_UNREGISTER_FINAL with care !
      
      Change dst_dev_event() handler to react to NETDEV_UNREGISTER_FINAL
      
      Also remove NETDEV_UNREGISTER_BATCH, as its not used anymore after
      IP cache removal.

      ipv6: fix incorrect route 'expires' value passed to userspace · 8253947e
      Li Wei 提交于
      When userspace use RTM_GETROUTE to dump route table, with an already
      expired route entry, we always got an 'expires' value(2147157)
      calculated base on INT_MAX.
      
      The reason of this problem is in the following satement:
      	rt->dst.expires - jiffies < INT_MAX
      gcc promoted the type of both sides of '<' to unsigned long, thus
      a small negative value would be considered greater than INT_MAX.

      net: fix rtnetlink IFF_PROMISC and IFF_ALLMULTI handling · b1beb681
      Jiri Benc 提交于
      When device flags are set using rtnetlink, IFF_PROMISC and IFF_ALLMULTI
      flags are handled specially. Function dev_change_flags sets IFF_PROMISC and
      IFF_ALLMULTI bits in dev->gflags according to the passed value but
      do_setlink passes a result of rtnl_dev_combine_flags which takes those bits
      from dev->flags.
      
      This can be easily trigerred by doing:
      
      tcpdump -i eth0 &
      ip l s up eth0
      
      ip sets IFF_UP flag in ifi_flags and ifi_change, which is combined with
      IFF_PROMISC by rtnl_dev_combine_flags, causing __dev_change_flags to set
      IFF_PROMISC in gflags.

      netlink: add netlink_kernel_cfg parameter to netlink_kernel_create · a31f2d17
      Pablo Neira Ayuso 提交于
      This patch adds the following structure:
      
      struct netlink_kernel_cfg {
              unsigned int    groups;
              void            (*input)(struct sk_buff *skb);
              struct mutex    *cb_mutex;
      };
      
      That can be passed to netlink_kernel_create to set optional configurations
      for netlink kernel sockets.
      
      I've populated this structure by looking for NULL and zero parameters at the
      existing code. The remaining parameters that always need to be set are still
      left in the original interface.
      
      That includes optional parameters for the netlink socket creation. This allows
      easy extensibility of this interface in the future.
      
      This patch also adapts all callers to use this new interface.

      net: add generic PF_BRIDGE:RTM_ FDB hooks · 77162022
      John Fastabend 提交于
      This adds two new flags NTF_MASTER and NTF_SELF that can
      now be used to specify where PF_BRIDGE netlink commands should
      be sent. NTF_MASTER sends the commands to the 'dev->master'
      device for parsing. Typically this will be the linux net/bridge,
      or open-vswitch devices. Also without any flags set the command
      will be handled by the master device as well so that current user
      space tools continue to work as expected.
      
      The NTF_SELF flag will push the PF_BRIDGE commands to the
      device. In the basic example below the commands are then parsed
      and programmed in the embedded bridge.
      
      Note if both NTF_SELF and NTF_MASTER bits are set then the
      command will be sent to both 'dev->master' and 'dev' this allows
      user space to easily keep the embedded bridge and software bridge
      in sync.
      
      There is a slight complication in the case with both flags set
      when an error occurs. To resolve this the rtnl handler clears
      the NTF_ flag in the netlink ack to indicate which sets completed
      successfully. The add/del handlers will abort as soon as any
      error occurs.
      
      To support this new net device ops were added to call into
      the device and the existing bridging code was refactored
      to use these. There should be no required changes in user space
      to support the current bridge behavior.
      
      A basic setup with a SR-IOV enabled NIC looks like this,
      
                veth0  veth2
                  |      |
                ------------
                |  bridge0 |   <---- software bridging
                ------------
                     /
                     /
        ethx.y      ethx
          VF         PF
           \         \          <---- propagate FDB entries to HW
           \         \
        --------------------
        |  Embedded Bridge |    <---- hardware offloaded switching
        --------------------
      
      In this case the embedded bridge must be managed to allow 'veth0'
      to communicate with 'ethx.y' correctly. At present drivers managing
      the embedded bridge either send frames onto the network which
      then get dropped by the switch OR the embedded bridge will flood
      these frames. With this patch we have a mechanism to manage the
      embedded bridge correctly from user space. This example is specific
      to SR-IOV but replacing the VF with another PF or dropping this
      into the DSA framework generates similar management issues.
      
      Examples session using the 'br'[1] tool to add, dump and then
      delete a mac address with a new "embedded" option and enabled
      ixgbe driver:
      
      # br fdb add 22:35:19:ac:60:59 dev eth3
      # br fdb
      port    mac addr                flags
      veth0   22:35:19:ac:60:58       static

      eth3    00:1b:21:55:23:59       local
      eth3    22:35:19:ac:60:59       static
      veth0   22:35:19:ac:60:57       static
      #br fdb add 22:35:19:ac:60:59 embedded dev eth3
      #br fdb
      port    mac addr                flags
      veth0   22:35:19:ac:60:58       static
      veth0   9a:5f:81:f7:f6:ec       local
      eth3    00:1b:21:55:23:59       local
      eth3    22:35:19:ac:60:59       static
      veth0   22:35:19:ac:60:57       static
      eth3    22:35:19:ac:60:59       local embedded
      #br fdb del 22:35:19:ac:60:59 embedded dev eth3
      
      I added a couple lines to 'br' to set the flags correctly is all. It
      is my opinion that the merit of this patch is now embedded and SW
      bridges can both be modeled correctly in user space using very nearly
      the same message passing.
