Usually an skb does not have up to MAX_SKB_FRAGS frags. So no need to initialize the unuse part of sg. This patch initialize the sg based on the real number it will used: - during xmit, it could be inferred from nr_frags and can_push. - for small receive buffer, it will also be 2. Cc: Michael S.

Pravin B Shelar says: ==================== Geneve: Add support for tunnel metadata mode Following patches adds support for Geneve tunnel metadata mode. OVS can make use of Geneve net-device with tunnel metadata API from kernel. This also allows us to consolidate Geneve implementation from two kernel modules geneve_core and geneve to single geneve module. geneve_core module was targeted to share Geneve encap and decap code between Geneve netdevice and OVS Geneve tunnel implementation, Since OVS no longer needs these API, Geneve code can be consolidated into single geneve module. v3-v4: - Drop NETIF_F_NETNS_LOCAL feature. - Fix geneve device newlink check v2-v3: - make tunnel medata device and regular device mutually exclusive. - Fix Kconfig dependency for Geneve. - Fix dst-port netlink encoding. - drop changelink patch. v1-v2: - Replaced per hash table tunnel pointer (metadata enabled) with flag. - Added support for changelink. - Improve geneve device route lookup with more parameters. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S.

geneve_core module handles send and receive functionality. This way OVS could use the Geneve API. Now with use of tunnel meatadata mode OVS can directly use Geneve netdevice. So there is no need for separate module for Geneve. Following patch consolidates Geneve protocol processing in single module.

With help of tunnel metadata mode OVS can directly use Geneve devices to implement Geneve tunnels. This patch removes all of the OVS specific Geneve code and make OVS use a Geneve net_device. Basic geneve vport is still there to handle compatibility with current userspace application.

Commit 62ee783b ("smsc911x: Fix crash seen if neither ACPI nor OF is configured or used") introduces an error check for the return value from device_get_phy_mode() and bails out if there is an error. Unfortunately, there are configurations where no phy is configured. Those configurations now fail. To fix the problem, accept error returns from device_get_phy_mode(), and use the return value from device_property_read_u32() to determine if there is a suitable firmware interface to read the configuration.

Daniel Borkmann authored
For classifiers getting invoked via tc_classify(), we always need an extra function call into tc_classify_compat(), as both are being exported as symbols and tc_classify() itself doesn't do much except handling of reclassifications when tp->classify() returned with TC_ACT_RECLASSIFY. CBQ and ATM are the only qdiscs that directly call into tc_classify_compat(), all others use tc_classify(). When tc actions are being configured out in the kernel, tc_classify() effectively does nothing besides delegating. We could spare this layer and consolidate both functions. pktgen on single CPU constantly pushing skbs directly into the netif_receive_skb() path with a dummy classifier on ingress qdisc attached, improves slightly from 22.3Mpps to 23.1Mpps.

Jeff Kirsher says: ==================== Intel Wired LAN Driver Updates 2015-08-26 This series contains updates to i40e and i40evf only. Anjali provides a fix for i40e where the part is not receiving multicast or VLAN tagged packets when in promiscuous mode. This can occur when a software bridge is created on top of the device. Fixed the legacy and MSI interrupt mode in the driver, which was non-existent before since we were assuming MSIX was the only mode that the driver ran in. Fixed the i40evf driver, where the wrong defines were getting used in the VF driver. Mitch fixes a sparse warning about comparing __le16 to u16 so use le16_to_cpu() to resolve the warning. Also fixed a dyslexic spelling of invalid. Shannon adds port.crc_errors to receive CRC error counter, since it is a receive counter. Catherine provides a fix to move the stopping of the service task and flow director to i40e_shutdown() instead of i40e_suspend(). Greg fixes the ethtool offline diagnostic with netqueues, which just need to be treated the same as virtual functions when someone wants to run the ethtool offline diagnostic test. Also fixed up code comments for the i40e ethtool diagnostic test function. Cleans up redundant and unneeded messages, since the kernel notifies all VXLAN capable registered drivers, so no need to log this. Neerav adds the ability to update statistics per VEB per traffic class and dump it via ethtool. Jingjing adds support for virtual channel offload to support receive polling mode in the VF driver. v2: dropped patch which added helper functions into a header, feedback from David Miller was to make the functions constant to reduce the driver footprint, so remove the patch while Anjali works on making the requested changes. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S.

Joe Stringer says: ==================== OVS conntrack support The goal of this series is to allow OVS to send packets through the Linux kernel connection tracker, and subsequently match on fields populated by conntrack. This functionality is enabled through a new CONFIG_OPENVSWITCH_CONNTRACK option. This version addresses the feedback from v5, primarily checking the behaviour is correct with different configurations such as disabling CONFIG_OPENVSWITCH_CONNTRACK or disabling individual conntrack features like connlabels. The branch below has been updated with the corresponding userspace pieces: https://github.com/joestringer/ovs dev/ct_20150818 ==================== Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

Add support for using conntrack helpers to assist protocol detection. The new OVS_CT_ATTR_HELPER attribute of the CT action specifies a helper to be used for this connection. If no helper is specified, then helpers will be automatically applied as per the sysctl configuration of net.netfilter.nf_conntrack_helper. The helper may be specified as part of the conntrack action, eg: ct(helper=ftp). Initial packets for related connections should be committed to allow later packets for the flow to be considered established. Example ovs-ofctl flows allowing FTP connections from ports 1->2: in_port=1,tcp,action=ct(helper=ftp,commit),2 in_port=2,tcp,ct_state=-trk,action=ct(recirc) in_port=2,tcp,ct_state=+trk-new+est,action=1 in_port=2,tcp,ct_state=+trk+rel,action=1 Signed-off-by: Joe Stringer <joestringer@nicira.com> Acked-by: Thomas Graf <tgraf@suug.ch> Acked-by: Pravin B Shelar <pshelar@nicira.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

Allow matching and setting the ct_label field. As with ct_mark, this is populated by executing the CT action. The label field may be modified by specifying a label and mask nested under the CT action. It is stored as metadata attached to the connection. Label modification occurs after lookup, and will only persist when the conntrack entry is committed by providing the COMMIT flag to the CT action. Labels are currently fixed to 128 bits in size.

Allow matching and setting the ct_mark field. As with ct_state and ct_zone, these fields are populated when the CT action is executed. To write to this field, a value and mask can be specified as a nested attribute under the CT action. This data is stored with the conntrack entry, and is executed after the lookup occurs for the CT action. The conntrack entry itself must be committed using the COMMIT flag in the CT action flags for this change to persist.

Expose the kernel connection tracker via OVS. Userspace components can make use of the CT action to populate the connection state (ct_state) field for a flow. This state can be subsequently matched. Exposed connection states are OVS_CS_F_*: - NEW (0x01) - Beginning of a new connection. - ESTABLISHED (0x02) - Part of an existing connection. - RELATED (0x04) - Related to an established connection. - INVALID (0x20) - Could not track the connection for this packet. - REPLY_DIR (0x40) - This packet is in the reply direction for the flow. - TRACKED (0x80) - This packet has been sent through conntrack. When the CT action is executed by itself, it will send the packet through the connection tracker and populate the ct_state field with one or more of the connection state flags above. The CT action will always set the TRACKED bit. When the COMMIT flag is passed to the conntrack action, this specifies that information about the connection should be stored. This allows subsequent packets for the same (or related) connections to be correlated with this connection. Sending subsequent packets for the connection through conntrack allows the connection tracker to consider the packets as ESTABLISHED, RELATED, and/or REPLY_DIR. The CT action may optionally take a zone to track the flow within. This allows connections with the same 5-tuple to be kept logically separate from connections in other zones. If the zone is specified, then the "ct_zone" match field will be subsequently populated with the zone id. IP fragments are handled by transparently assembling them as part of the CT action. The maximum received unit (MRU) size is tracked so that refragmentation can occur during output. IP frag handling contributed by Andy Zhou. Based on original design by Justin Pettit.

Previously, we used the kernel-internal netlink actions length to calculate the size of messages to serialize back to userspace. However,the sw_flow_actions may not be formatted exactly the same as the actions on the wire, so store the original actions length when de-serializing and re-use the original length when serializing.

Broadcom buses may have more than 1 Ethernet device. This is used e.g. to have few interfaces connected to different switch ports. So far we saw chipsets with only 2 devices (e.g. BCM4706) but recent ones have up to 3 (e.g. Netgear R8000 uses 3rd interface for most of switch traffic, lower interfaces are for some kind of offloading).

The kernel notifies all VXLAN capable registered drivers, i.e. any driver that implements ndo_add_vxlan_port(), of the addition of a port so that the driver can track which ports are in use. There's no need to log this - it just fills the system log with useless and irksome noise. Also, when failing to init SR-IOV interfaces the driver was printing the same message twice. Just remove the inner printk and let the outer message catch enable as well as the other failures.
