net: ipv6: Init tunnel link-netns before registering dev

2025-05-29T09:02:40+00:00

[ Upstream commit db014522f35606031d8ac58b4aed6b1ed84f03d1 ] Currently some IPv6 tunnel drivers set tnl->net to dev_net(dev) in ndo_init(), which is called in register_netdevice(). However, it lacks the context of link-netns when we enable cross-net tunnels at device registration time. Let's move the init of tunnel link-netns before register_netdevice(). ip6_gre has already initialized netns, so just remove the redundant assignment.

netdev_features: convert NETIF_F_NETNS_LOCAL to dev->netns_local

2024-09-03T09:36:43+00:00

"Interface can't change network namespaces" is rather an attribute, not a feature, and it can't be changed via Ethtool. Make it a "cold" private flag instead of a netdev_feature and free one more bit. Signed-off-by: Alexander Lobakin Signed-off-by: Paolo Abeni

NETIF_F_LLTX can't be changed via Ethtool and is not a feature, rather an attribute, very similar to IFF_NO_QUEUE (and hot). Free one netdev_features_t bit and make it a "hot" private flag. Signed-off-by: Alexander Lobakin Signed-off-by: Paolo Abeni

ipv6: sit: Unmask upper DSCP bits in ipip6_tunnel_xmit()

2024-08-31T16:44:51+00:00

The function calls flowi4_init_output() to initialize an IPv4 flow key with which it then performs a FIB lookup using ip_route_output_flow(). The 'tos' variable with which the TOS value in the IPv4 flow key (flowi4_tos) is initialized contains the full DS field. Unmask the upper DSCP bits so that in the future the FIB lookup could be performed according to the full DSCP value. Signed-off-by: Ido Schimmel Reviewed-by: Guillaume Nault Signed-off-by: David S.

ip_tunnel: convert __be16 tunnel flags to bitmaps

2024-04-01T09:49:28+00:00

Historically, tunnel flags like TUNNEL_CSUM or TUNNEL_ERSPAN_OPT have been defined as __be16. Now all of those 16 bits are occupied and there's no more free space for new flags. It can't be simply switched to a bigger container with no adjustments to the values, since it's an explicit Endian storage, and on LE systems (__be16)0x0001 equals to (__be64)0x0001000000000000. We could probably define new 64-bit flags depending on the Endianness, i.e. (__be64)0x0001 on BE and (__be64)0x00010000... on LE, but that would introduce an Endianness dependency and spawn a ton of Sparse warnings. To mitigate them, all of those places which were adjusted with this change would be touched anyway, so why not define stuff properly if there's no choice. Define IP_TUNNEL_*_BIT counterparts as a bit number instead of the value already coded and a fistful of <16 <-> bitmap> converters and helpers. The two flags which have a different bit position are SIT_ISATAP_BIT and VTI_ISVTI_BIT, as they were defined not as __cpu_to_be16(), but as (__force __be16), i.e. had different positions on LE and BE. Now they both have strongly defined places. Change all __be16 fields which were used to store those flags, to IP_TUNNEL_DECLARE_FLAGS() -> DECLARE_BITMAP(__IP_TUNNEL_FLAG_NUM) -> unsigned long[1] for now, and replace all TUNNEL_* occurrences to their bitmap counterparts. Use the converters in the places which talk to the userspace, hardware (NFP) or other hosts (GRE header). The rest must explicitly use the new flags only. This must be done at once, otherwise there will be too many conversions throughout the code in the intermediate commits. Finally, disable the old __be16 flags for use in the kernel code (except for the two 'irregular' flags mentioned above), to prevent any accidental (mis)use of them. For the userspace, nothing is changed, only additions were made. Most noticeable bloat-o-meter difference (.text): vmlinux: 307/-1 (306) gre.ko: 62/0 (62) ip_gre.ko: 941/-217 (724) [*] ip_tunnel.ko: 390/-900 (-510) [**] ip_vti.ko: 138/0 (138) ip6_gre.ko: 534/-18 (516) [*] ip6_tunnel.ko: 118/-10 (108) [*] gre_flags_to_tnl_flags() grew, but still is inlined [**] ip_tunnel_find() got uninlined, hence such decrease The average code size increase in non-extreme case is 100-200 bytes per module, mostly due to sizeof(long) > sizeof(__be16), as %__IP_TUNNEL_FLAG_NUM is less than %BITS_PER_LONG and the compilers are able to expand the majority of bitmap_*() calls here into direct operations on scalars.

ip_tunnel: use a separate struct to store tunnel params in the kernel

2024-04-01T09:49:28+00:00

Unlike IPv6 tunnels which use purely-kernel __ip6_tnl_parm structure to store params inside the kernel, IPv4 tunnel code uses the same ip_tunnel_parm which is being used to talk with the userspace. This makes it difficult to alter or add any fields or use a different format for whatever data. Define struct ip_tunnel_parm_kern, a 1:1 copy of ip_tunnel_parm for now, and use it throughout the code. Define the pieces, where the copy user <-> kernel happens, as standalone functions, and copy the data there field-by-field, so that the kernel-side structure could be easily modified later on and the users wouldn't have to care about this.

net: sit: Do not set .ndo_get_stats64

2024-02-29T11:50:13+00:00

If the driver is using the network core allocation mechanism, by setting NETDEV_PCPU_STAT_TSTATS, as this driver is, then, it doesn't need to set the dev_get_tstats64() generic .ndo_get_stats64 function pointer. Since the network core calls it automatically, and .ndo_get_stats64 should only be set if the driver needs special treatment. This simplifies the driver, since all the generic statistics is now handled by core. Signed-off-by: Breno Leitao Reviewed-by: Simon Horman Signed-off-by: Paolo Abeni

ipv6/sit: Do not allocate stats in the driver

2024-02-23T02:57:53+00:00

With commit 34d21de99cea9 ("net: Move {l,t,d}stats allocation to core and convert veth & vrf"), stats allocation could be done on net core instead of this driver. With this new approach, the driver doesn't have to bother with error handling (allocation failure checking, making sure free happens in the right spot, etc). This is core responsibility now. Remove the allocation in the ipv6/sit driver and leverage the network core allocation.
