2012-07-28Revert "openvswitch: potential NULL deref in sample()"Jesse Gross1-3/+0
This reverts commit 5b3e7e6cb5771bedda51cdb6f715d1da8cd9e644. The problem that the original commit was attempting to fix can never happen in practice because validation is done one a per-flow basis rather than a per-packet basis. Adding additional checks at runtime is unnecessary and inconsistent with the rest of the code.

2012-07-23openvswitch: potential NULL deref in sample()Dan Carpenter1-0/+3
If there is no OVS_SAMPLE_ATTR_ACTIONS set then "acts_list" is NULL and it leads to a NULL dereference when we call nla_len(acts_list). This is a static checker fix, not something I have seen in testing. Signed-off-by: Dan Carpenter <dan.carpenter@oracle.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

2012-03-08openvswitch: Fix checksum update for actions on UDP packets.Jesse Gross1-12/+32
When modifying IP addresses or ports on a UDP packet we don't correctly follow the rules for unchecksummed packets. This meant that packets without a checksum can be given a incorrect new checksum and packets with a checksum can become marked as being unchecksummed. This fixes it to handle those requirements.

2011-12-03net: Add Open vSwitch kernel components.Jesse Gross1-0/+415
Open vSwitch is a multilayer Ethernet switch targeted at virtualized environments. In addition to supporting a variety of features expected in a traditional hardware switch, it enables fine-grained programmatic extension and flow-based control of the network. This control is useful in a wide variety of applications but is particularly important in multi-server virtualization deployments, which are often characterized by highly dynamic endpoints and the need to maintain logical abstractions for multiple tenants. The Open vSwitch datapath provides an in-kernel fast path for packet forwarding. It is complemented by a userspace daemon, ovs-vswitchd, which is able to accept configuration from a variety of sources and translate it into packet processing rules. See http://openvswitch.org for more information and userspace utilities. Signed-off-by: Jesse Gross <jesse@nicira.com>
