      netfilter: bridge: move br_netfilter out of the core · 34666d46
      Pablo Neira Ayuso 提交于
      Jesper reported that br_netfilter always registers the hooks since
      this is part of the bridge core. This harms performance for people that
      don't need this.
      
      This patch modularizes br_netfilter so it can be rmmod'ed, thus,
      the hooks can be unregistered. I think the bridge netfilter should have
      been a separated module since the beginning, Patrick agreed on that.
      
      Note that this is breaking compatibility for users that expect that
      bridge netfilter is going to be available after explicitly 'modprobe
      bridge' or via automatic load through brctl.
      
      However, the damage can be easily undone by modprobing br_netfilter.
      The bridge core also spots a message to provide a clue to people that
      didn't notice that this has been deprecated.
      
      On top of that, the plan is that nftables will not rely on this software
      layer, but integrate the connection tracking into the bridge layer to
      enable stateful filtering and NAT, which is was bridge netfilter users
      seem to require.
      
      This patch still keeps the fake_dst_ops in the bridge core, since this
      is required by when the bridge port is initialized. So we can safely
      modprobe/rmmod br_netfilter anytime.

      Fast leave allows bridge to immediately stops the multicast
      traffic on the port receives IGMP Leave when IGMP snooping is enabled,
      no timeouts are observed.

      bridge: add root port blocking · 1007dd1a
      stephen hemminger 提交于
      This is Linux bridge implementation of root port guard.
      If BPDU is received from a leaf (edge) port, it should not
      be elected as root port.
      
      Why would you want to do this?
      If using STP on a bridge and the downstream bridges are not fully
      trusted; this prevents a hostile guest for rerouting traffic.
      
      Why not just use netfilter?
      Netfilter does not track of follow spanning tree decisions.
      It would be difficult and error prone to try and mirror STP
      resolution in netfilter module.

      bridge: implement BPDU blocking · a2e01a65
      stephen hemminger 提交于
      This is Linux bridge implementation of STP protection
      (Cisco BPDU guard/Juniper BPDU block). BPDU block disables
      the bridge port if a STP BPDU packet is received.
      
      Why would you want to do this?
      If running Spanning Tree on bridge, hostile devices on the network
      may send BPDU and cause network failure. Enabling bpdu block
      will detect and stop this.
      
      How to recover the port?
      The port will be restarted if link is brought down, or
      removed and reattached.  For example:
       # ip li set dev eth0 down; ip li set dev eth0 up

      bridge: bridge port parameters over netlink · 25c71c75
      stephen hemminger 提交于
      Expose bridge port parameter over netlink. By switching to a nested
      message, this can be used for other bridge parameters.
      
      This changes IFLA_PROTINFO attribute from one byte to a full nested
      set of attributes. This is safe for application interface because the
      old message used IFLA_PROTINFO and new one uses
       IFLA_PROTINFO | NLA_F_NESTED.
      
      The code adapts to old format requests, and therefore stays
      compatible with user mode RSTP daemon. Since the type field
      for nested and unnested attributes are different, and the old
      code in libnetlink doesn't do the mask, it is also safe to use
      with old versions of bridge monitor command.
      
      Note: although mode is only a boolean, treating it as a
      full byte since in the future someone will probably want to add more
      values (like macvlan has).

      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: create generic bridge ops · e5a55a89
      John Fastabend 提交于
      The PF_BRIDGE:RTM_{GET|SET}LINK nlmsg family and type are
      currently embedded in the ./net/bridge module. This prohibits
      them from being used by other bridging devices. One example
      of this being hardware that has embedded bridging components.
      
      In order to use these nlmsg types more generically this patch
      adds two net_device_ops hooks. One to set link bridge attributes
      and another to dump the current bride attributes.
