2018-07-30selftests: forwarding: Test mirror-to-gretap w/ UL team LACPPetr Machata
This tests mirror-to-gretap when an underlay packet path includes a team device which is not in loadbalance mode, but in LACP mode. The test manipulates LAG membership to achieve changes in txability, thus making sure that a driver that offloads mirror-to-gretap doesn't just consider upness of a device.

2018-07-30selftests: forwarding: Test mirror-to-gretap w/ UL teamPetr Machata
Test for "tc action mirred egress mirror" that mirrors to gretap when the underlay route points at a VLAN-aware bridge (802.1q), and the traffic egresses the bridge through a team device. Test upping and downing individual team device slaves and verify the traffic flows as expected. Signed-off-by: Petr Machata <petrm@mellanox.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

The logic for testing whether a certain command is available is used several times in the current code base. The tests in follow-up patches add more requirements like that. Therefore extract the logic into a named function, require_command(), that can be used directly from lib.sh as well as from any test that wishes to declare dependence on some command.

2018-07-30net/tls: Use socket data_ready callback on record availabilityVakul Garg
On receipt of a complete tls record, use socket's saved data_ready callback instead of state_change callback. In function tls_queue(), the TLS record is queued in encrypted state. But the decryption happen inline when tls_sw_recvmsg() or tls_sw_splice_read() get invoked. So it should be ok to notify the waiting context about the availability of data as soon as we could collect a full TLS record. For new data availability notification, sk_data_ready callback is more appropriate. It points to sock_def_readable() which wakes up specifically for EPOLLIN event. This is in contrast to the socket callback sk_state_change which points to sock_def_wakeup() which issues a wakeup unconditionally (without event mask).

2018-07-30Merge branch 'TC-refactor-act_mirred-packets-re-injection'David S. Miller
Paolo Abeni says: ==================== TC: refactor act_mirred packets re-injection This series is aimed at improving the act_mirred redirect performances. Such action is used by OVS to represent TC S/W flows, and it's current largest bottle-neck is the need for a skb_clone() for each packet. The first 2 patches introduce some cleanup and safeguards to allow extending tca_result - we will use it to store RCU protected redirect information - and introduce a clear separation between user-space accessible tcfa_action values and internal values accessible only by the kernel. Then a new tcfa_action value is introduced: TC_ACT_REINJECT, similar to TC_ACT_REDIRECT, but preserving the mirred semantic. Such value is not accessible from user-space. The last patch exploits the newly introduced infrastructure in the act_mirred action, to avoid a skb_clone, when possible. Overall this the above gives a ~10% performance improvement in forwarding tput, when using the TC S/W datapath. v1 -> v2: - preserve the rcu lock in act_bpf - add and use a new action value to reinject the packets, preserving the mirred semantic v2 -> v3: - renamed to new action as TC_ACT_REINJECT - TC_ACT_REINJECT is not exposed to user-space v3 -> v4: - dropped the TC_ACT_REDIRECT patch - report failure via extack, too - rename the new action as TC_ACT_REINSERT - skip clone only if the control action don't touch tcf_result v4 -> v5: - fix a couple of build issue reported by kbuild bot - dont split messages ==================== Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2018-07-30act_mirred: use TC_ACT_REINSERT when possiblePaolo Abeni
When mirred is invoked from the ingress path, and it wants to redirect the processed packet, it can now use the TC_ACT_REINSERT action, filling the tcf_result accordingly, and avoiding a per packet skb_clone(). Overall this gives a ~10% improvement in forwarding performance for the TC S/W data path and TC S/W performances are now comparable to the kernel openvswitch datapath. v1 -> v2: use ACT_MIRRED instead of ACT_REDIRECT v2 -> v3: updated after action rename, fixed typo into the commit message v3 -> v4: updated again after action rename, added more comments to the code (JiriP), skip the optimization if the control action need to touch the tcf_result (Paolo) v4 -> v5: fix sparse warning (kbuild bot) Signed-off-by: Paolo Abeni <pabeni@redhat.com> Acked-by: Jiri Pirko <jiri@mellanox.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

2018-07-30net/tc: introduce TC_ACT_REINSERT.Paolo Abeni
This is similar TC_ACT_REDIRECT, but with a slightly different semantic: - on ingress the mirred skbs are passed to the target device network stack without any additional check not scrubbing. - the rcu-protected stats provided via the tcf_result struct are updated on error conditions. This new tcfa_action value is not exposed to the user-space and can be used only internally by clsact. v1 -> v2: do not touch TC_ACT_REDIRECT code path, introduce a new action type instead v2 -> v3: - rename the new action value TC_ACT_REINJECT, update the helper accordingly - take care of uncloned reinjected packets in XDP generic hook v3 -> v4: - renamed again the new action value (JiriP) v4 -> v5: - fix build error with !NET_CLS_ACT (kbuild bot) Signed-off-by: Paolo Abeni <pabeni@redhat.com> Acked-by: Jiri Pirko <jiri@mellanox.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

2018-07-30tc/act: remove unneeded RCU lock in action callbackPaolo Abeni
Each lockless action currently does its own RCU locking in ->act(). This allows using plain RCU accessor, even if the context is really RCU BH. This change drops the per action RCU lock, replace the accessors with the _bh variant, cleans up a bit the surrounding code and documents the RCU status in the relevant header. No functional nor performance change is intended. The goal of this patch is clarifying that the RCU critical section used by the tc actions extends up to the classifier's caller. v1 -> v2: - preserve rcu lock in act_bpf: it's needed by eBPF helpers, as pointed out by Daniel v3 -> v4: - fixed some typos in the commit message (JiriP) Signed-off-by: Paolo Abeni <pabeni@redhat.com> Acked-by: Jiri Pirko <jiri@mellanox.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

2018-07-30net/sched: user-space can't set unknown tcfa_action valuesPaolo Abeni
Currently, when initializing an action, the user-space can specify and use arbitrary values for the tcfa_action field. If the value is unknown by the kernel, is implicitly threaded as TC_ACT_UNSPEC. This change explicitly checks for unknown values at action creation time, and explicitly convert them to TC_ACT_UNSPEC. No functional changes are introduced, but this will allow introducing tcfa_action values not exposed to user-space in a later patch. Note: we can't use the above to hide TC_ACT_REDIRECT from user-space, as the latter is already part of uAPI. v3 -> v4: - use an helper to check for action validity (JiriP) - emit an extack for invalid actions (JiriP) v4 -> v5: - keep messages on a single line, drop net_warn (Marcelo) Signed-off-by: Paolo Abeni <pabeni@redhat.com> Acked-by: Jiri Pirko <jiri@mellanox.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

This patch implements the feature described in rfc1812#section-5.3.5.2 and rfc2644. It allows the router to forward directed broadcast when sysctl bc_forwarding is enabled. Note that this feature could be done by iptables -j TEE, but it would cause some problems: - target TEE's gateway param has to be set with a specific address, and it's not flexible especially when the route wants forward all directed broadcasts. - this duplicates the directed broadcasts so this may cause side effects to applications. Besides, to keep consistent with other os router like BSD, it's also necessary to implement it in the route rx path. Note that route cache needs to be flushed when bc_forwarding is changed.
