ipv6: sr: add core files for SR HMAC support

2016-11-10T01:40:06+00:00

This patch adds the necessary functions to compute and check the HMAC signature of an SR-enabled packet. Two HMAC algorithms are supported: hmac(sha1) and hmac(sha256). In order to avoid dynamic memory allocation for each HMAC computation, a per-cpu ring buffer is allocated for this purpose. A new per-interface sysctl called seg6_require_hmac is added, allowing a user-defined policy for processing HMAC-signed SR-enabled packets. A value of -1 means that the HMAC field will always be ignored. A value of 0 means that if an HMAC field is present, its validity will be enforced (the packet is dropped is the signature is incorrect). Finally, a value of 1 means that any SR-enabled packet that does not contain an HMAC signature or whose signature is incorrect will be dropped. Signed-off-by: David Lebrun Signed-off-by: David S.

ipv6: sr: add support for SRH encapsulation and injection with lwtunnels

2016-11-10T01:40:06+00:00

This patch creates a new type of interfaceless lightweight tunnel (SEG6), enabling the encapsulation and injection of SRH within locally emitted packets and forwarded packets. >From a configuration viewpoint, a seg6 tunnel would be configured as follows: ip -6 ro ad fc00::1/128 encap seg6 mode encap segs fc42::1,fc42::2,fc42::3 dev eth0 Any packet whose destination address is fc00::1 would thus be encapsulated within an outer IPv6 header containing the SRH with three segments, and would actually be routed to the first segment of the list. If `mode inline' was specified instead of `mode encap', then the SRH would be directly inserted after the IPv6 header without outer encapsulation. The inline mode is only available if CONFIG_IPV6_SEG6_INLINE is enabled. This feature was made configurable because direct header insertion may break several mechanisms such as PMTUD or IPSec AH.

ipv6: sr: add code base for control plane support of SR-IPv6

2016-11-10T01:40:06+00:00

This patch adds the necessary hooks and structures to provide support for SR-IPv6 control plane, essentially the Generic Netlink commands that will be used for userspace control over the Segment Routing kernel structures. The genetlink commands provide control over two different structures: tunnel source and HMAC data. The tunnel source is the source address that will be used by default when encapsulating packets into an outer IPv6 header + SRH. If the tunnel source is set to :: then an address of the outgoing interface will be selected as the source. The HMAC commands currently just return ENOTSUPP and will be implemented in a future patch.

ipv6: implement dataplane support for rthdr type 4 (Segment Routing Header)

2016-11-10T01:40:06+00:00

Implement minimal support for processing of SR-enabled packets as described in https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-6man-segment-routing-header-02. This patch implements the following operations: - Intermediate segment endpoint: incrementation of active segment and rerouting. - Egress for SR-encapsulated packets: decapsulation of outer IPv6 header + SRH and routing of inner packet. - Cleanup flag support for SR-inlined packets: removal of SRH if we are the penultimate segment endpoint. A per-interface sysctl seg6_enabled is provided, to accept/deny SR-enabled packets. Default is deny. This patch does not provide support for HMAC-signed packets.
