ipv6: add vrf table handling code for ipv6 mcast

2018-10-03T05:29:08+00:00

The code to obtain the correct table for the incoming interface was missing for IPv6. This has been added along with the table creation notification to fib rules for the RTNL_FAMILY_IP6MR address family.

vrf: add CRC32c offload to device features

2018-05-29T02:55:13+00:00

SCTP sockets originated in a VRF can improve their performance if CRC32c computation is delegated to underlying devices: update device features, setting NETIF_F_SCTP_CRC. Iterating the following command in the topology proposed with [1], # ip vrf exec vrf-h2 netperf -H 192.0.2.1 -t SCTP_STREAM -- -m 10K the measured throughput in Mbit/s improved from 2395 ± 1% to 2720 ± 1%.

vrf: Move fib6_table into net_vrf

2018-04-18T03:41:15+00:00

A later patch removes rt6i_table from rt6_info. Save the ipv6 table for a VRF in net_vrf. fib tables can not be deleted so no reference counting or locking is required. Signed-off-by: David Ahern Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

Merge git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/davem/net

2018-04-01T23:49:34+00:00

Minor conflicts in drivers/net/ethernet/mellanox/mlx5/core/en_rep.c, we had some overlapping changes: 1) In 'net' MLX5E_PARAMS_LOG_{SQ,RQ}_SIZE --> MLX5E_REP_PARAMS_LOG_{SQ,RQ}_SIZE 2) In 'net-next' params->log_rq_size is renamed to be params->log_rq_mtu_frames. 3) In 'net-next' params->hard_mtu is added.

vrf: Fix use after free and double free in vrf_finish_output

2018-03-30T18:20:23+00:00

Miguel reported an skb use after free / double free in vrf_finish_output when neigh_output returns an error. The vrf driver should return after the call to neigh_output as it takes over the skb on error path as well. Patch is a simplified version of Miguel's patch which was written for 4.9, and updated to top of tree.

Synchronous pernet_operations are not allowed anymore. All are asynchronous. So, drop the structure member. Signed-off-by: Kirill Tkhai Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

net/ipv6: Pass skb to route lookup

2018-03-04T18:04:22+00:00

IPv6 does path selection for multipath routes deep in the lookup functions. The next patch adds L4 hash option and needs the skb for the forward path. To get the skb to the relevant FIB lookup functions it needs to go through the fib rules layer, so add a lookup_data argument to the fib_lookup_arg struct.

net: fib_rules: Add new attribute to set protocol

2018-02-23T20:47:20+00:00

For ages iproute2 has used `struct rtmsg` as the ancillary header for FIB rules and in the process set the protocol value to RTPROT_BOOT. Until ca56209a66 ("net: Allow a rule to track originating protocol") the kernel rules code ignored the protocol value sent from userspace and always returned 0 in notifications. To avoid incompatibility with existing iproute2, send the protocol as a new attribute.

net: Allow a rule to track originating protocol

2018-02-21T22:49:24+00:00

Allow a rule that is being added/deleted/modified or dumped to contain the originating protocol's id. The protocol is handled just like a routes originating protocol is. This is especially useful because there is starting to be a plethora of different user space programs adding rules. Allow the vrf device to specify that the kernel is the originator of the rule created for this device. Signed-off-by: Donald Sharp Signed-off-by: David S. Miller
