vlan: use a valid default mtu value for vlan over macsec

2016-07-17T03:15:02+00:00

macsec can't cope with mtu frames which need vlan tag insertion, and vlan device set the default mtu equal to the underlying dev's one. By default vlan over macsec devices use invalid mtu, dropping all the large packets. This patch adds a netif helper to check if an upper vlan device needs mtu reduction. The helper is used during vlan devices initialization to set a valid default and during mtu updating to forbid invalid, too bit, mtu values. The helper currently only check if the lower dev is a macsec device, if we get more users, we need to update only the helper (possibly reserving an additional IFF bit).

net: define gso types for IPx over IPv4 and IPv6

2016-05-20T22:03:15+00:00

This patch defines two new GSO definitions SKB_GSO_IPXIP4 and SKB_GSO_IPXIP6 along with corresponding NETIF_F_GSO_IPXIP4 and NETIF_F_GSO_IPXIP6. These are used to described IP in IP tunnel and what the outer protocol is. The inner protocol can be deduced from other GSO types (e.g. SKB_GSO_TCPV4 and SKB_GSO_TCPV6). The GSO types of SKB_GSO_IPIP and SKB_GSO_SIT are removed (these are both instances of SKB_GSO_IPXIP4). SKB_GSO_IPXIP6 will be used when support for GSO with IP encapsulation over IPv6 is added.

bpf: move bpf_jit_enable declaration

net: l3mdev: Add hook in ip and ipv6

2016-05-11T23:31:40+00:00

Currently the VRF driver uses the rx_handler to switch the skb device to the VRF device. Switching the dev prior to the ip / ipv6 layer means the VRF driver has to duplicate IP/IPv6 processing which adds overhead and makes features such as retaining the ingress device index more complicated than necessary. This patch moves the hook to the L3 layer just after the first NF_HOOK for PRE_ROUTING. This location makes exposing the original ingress device trivial (next patch) and allows adding other NF_HOOKs to the VRF driver in the future. dev_queue_xmit_nit is exported so that the VRF driver can cycle the skb with the switched device through the packet taps to maintain current behavior (tcpdump can be used on either the vrf device or the enslaved devices).

net: remove dev->trans_start

2016-05-04T18:16:50+00:00

previous patches removed all direct accesses to dev->trans_start, so change the netif_trans_update helper to update trans_start of netdev queue 0 instead and then remove trans_start from struct net_device. AFAICS a lot of the netif_trans_update() invocations are now useless because they occur in ndo_start_xmit and driver doesn't set LLTX (i.e. stack already took care of the update). As I can't test any of them it seems better to just leave them alone. Signed-off-by: Florian Westphal Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

netdevice: add helper to update trans_start

2016-05-04T18:16:48+00:00

trans_start exists twice: - as member of net_device (legacy) - as member of netdev_queue In order to get rid of the legacy case, add a helper for the dev->trans_update (this patch), then convert spots that do dev->trans_start = jiffies to use this helper (next patch). This would then allow us to change the helper so that it updates the trans_stamp of netdev queue 0 instead. Signed-off-by: Florian Westphal Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

netdevice: shrink size of struct netdev_queue

2016-05-03T02:51:41+00:00

- trans_timeout is incremented when tx queue timed out (tx watchdog). - tx_maxrate is set via sysfs Moving tx_maxrate to read-mostly part shrinks the struct by 64 bytes. While at it, also move trans_timeout (it is out-of-place in the 'write-mostly' part). Signed-off-by: Florian Westphal Acked-by: Eric Dumazet Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

net: fix net_gso_ok for new GSO types.

2016-04-28T19:53:17+00:00

Fix casting in net_gso_ok. Otherwise the shift on gso_type << NETIF_F_GSO_SHIFT may hit the 32th bit and make it look like a INT_MIN, which is then promoted from signed to uint64 which is 0xffffffff80000000, resulting in wrong behavior when it is and'ed with the feature itself, as in: This test app: #include #include int main(int argc, char **argv) { uint64_t feature1; uint64_t feature2; int gso_type = 1 << 15; feature1 = gso_type << 16; feature2 = (uint64_t)gso_type << 16; printf("%lx %lx\n", feature1, feature2); return 0; } Gives: ffffffff80000000 80000000 So that this: return (features & feature) == feature; Actually works on more bits than expected and invalid ones. Fix is to promote it earlier. Issue noted while rebasing SCTP GSO patch but posting separetely as someone else may experience this meanwhile.
