2014-11-05openvswitch: refactor do_output() to move NULL check out of fast pathAndy Zhou
skb_clone() NULL check is implemented in do_output(), as past of the common (fast) path. Refactoring so that NULL check is done in the slow path, immediately after skb_clone() is called. Besides optimization, this change also improves code readability by making the skb_clone() NULL check consistent within OVS datapath module.

The original motivation for this change was to allow the helper to be used in files other than actions.c as part of work on an odp select group action. It was as pointed out by Thomas Graf that this helper would be best off living in netlink.h. Furthermore, I think that the generic nature of this helper means it is best off in netlink.h regardless of if it is used more than one .c file or not. Thus, I would like it considered independent of the work on an odp select group action.

2014-10-20net: make skb_gso_segment error handling more robustFlorian Westphal
skb_gso_segment has three possible return values: 1. a pointer to the first segmented skb 2. an errno value (IS_ERR()) 3. NULL. This can happen when GSO is used for header verification. However, several callers currently test IS_ERR instead of IS_ERR_OR_NULL and would oops when NULL is returned. Note that these call sites should never actually see such a NULL return value; all callers mask out the GSO bits in the feature argument. However, there have been issues with some protocol handlers erronously not respecting the specified feature mask in some cases. It is preferable to get 'have to turn off hw offloading, else slow' reports rather than 'kernel crashes'. Signed-off-by: Florian Westphal <fw@strlen.de> Signed-off-by: David S.

2014-10-17openvswitch: Create right mask with disabled megaflowsPravin B Shelar
If megaflows are disabled, the userspace does not send the netlink attribute OVS_FLOW_ATTR_MASK, and the kernel must create an exact match mask. sw_flow_mask_set() sets every bytes (in 'range') of the mask to 0xff, even the bytes that represent padding for struct sw_flow, or the bytes that represent fields that may not be set during ovs_flow_extract(). This is a problem, because when we extract a flow from a packet, we do not memset() anymore the struct sw_flow to 0. This commit gets rid of sw_flow_mask_set() and introduces mask_set_nlattr(), which operates on the netlink attributes rather than on the mask key. Using this approach we are sure that only the bytes that the user provided in the flow are matched. Also, if the parse_flow_mask_nlattrs() for the mask ENCAP attribute fails, we now return with an error. This bug is introduced by commit 0714812134d7dcadeb7ecfbfeb18788aa7e1eaac ("openvswitch: Eliminate memset() from flow_extract").

2014-10-06openvswitch: Wrap struct ovs_key_ipv4_tunnel in a new structure.Jesse Gross
Currently, the flow information that is matched for tunnels and the tunnel data passed around with packets is the same. However, as additional information is added this is not necessarily desirable, as in the case of pointers. This adds a new structure for tunnel metadata which currently contains only the existing struct. This change is purely internal to the kernel since the current OVS_KEY_ATTR_IPV4_TUNNEL is simply a compressed version of OVS_KEY_ATTR_TUNNEL that is translated at flow setup.

2014-10-06openvswitch: Eliminate memset() from flow_extract.Jesse Gross
As new protocols are added, the size of the flow key tends to increase although few protocols care about all of the fields. In order to optimize this for hashing and matching, OVS uses a variable length portion of the key. However, when fields are extracted from the packet we must still zero out the entire key. This is no longer necessary now that OVS implements masking. Any fields (or holes in the structure) which are not part of a given protocol will be by definition not part of the mask and zeroed out during lookup. Furthermore, since masking already uses variable length keys this zeroing operation automatically benefits as well. In principle, the only thing that needs to be done at this point is remove the memset() at the beginning of flow. However, some fields assume that they are initialized to zero, which now must be done explicitly. In addition, in the event of an error we must also zero out corresponding fields to signal that there is no valid data present. These increase the total amount of code but very little of it is executed in non-error situations. Removing the memset() reduces the profile of ovs_flow_extract() from 0.64% to 0.56% when tested with large packets on a 10G link.

Recirc action allows a packet to reenter openvswitch processing. currently openvswitch lookup flow for packet received and execute set of actions on that packet, with help of recirc action we can process/modify the packet and recirculate it back in openvswitch for another pass. OVS hash action calculates 5-tupple hash and set hash in flow-key hash. This can be used along with recirculation for distributing packets among different ports for bond devices. For example: OVS bonding can use following actions: Match on: bond flow; Action: hash, recirc(id) Match on: recirc-id == id and hash lower bits == a; Action: output port_bond_a Signed-off-by: Andy Zhou <azhou@nicira.com> Acked-by: Jesse Gross <jesse@nicira.com> Signed-off-by: Pravin B Shelar <pshelar@nicira.com>

2014-08-22openvswitch: fix panic with multiple vlan headersJiri Benc
When there are multiple vlan headers present in a received frame, the first one is put into vlan_tci and protocol is set to ETH_P_8021Q. Anything in the skb beyond the VLAN TPID may be still non-linear, including the inner TCI and ethertype. While ovs_flow_extract takes care of IP and IPv6 headers, it does nothing with ETH_P_8021Q. Later, if OVS_ACTION_ATTR_POP_VLAN is executed, __pop_vlan_tci pulls the next vlan header into vlan_tci. This leads to two things: 1. Part of the resulting ethernet header is in the non-linear part of the skb. When eth_type_trans is called later as the result of OVS_ACTION_ATTR_OUTPUT, kernel BUGs in __skb_pull. Also, __pop_vlan_tci is in fact accessing random data when it reads past the TPID. 2. network_header points into the ethernet header instead of behind it. mac_len is set to a wrong value (10), too.

2014-07-24openvswitch: Sample action without side effectsSimon Horman
The sample action is rather generic, allowing arbitrary actions to be executed based on a probability. However its use, within the Open vSwitch code-base is limited: only a single user-space action is ever nested. A consequence of the current implementation of sample actions is that depending on weather the sample action executed (due to its probability) any side-effects of nested actions may or may not be present before executing subsequent actions. This has the potential to complicate verification of valid actions by the (kernel) datapath. And indeed adding support for push and pop MPLS actions inside sample actions is one case where such case. In order to allow all supported actions to be continue to be nested inside sample actions without the potential need for complex verification code this patch changes the implementation of the sample action in the kernel datapath so that sample actions are more like a function call and any side effects of nested actions are not present when executing subsequent actions. With the above in mind the motivation for this change is twofold: * To contain side-effects the sample action in the hope of making it easier to deal with in the future and; * To avoid some rather complex verification code introduced in the MPLS datapath patch.
