* License cleanup: add SPDX license identifier to uapi header files with no ↵Greg Kroah-Hartman2017-11-021-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | license Many user space API headers are missing licensing information, which makes it hard for compliance tools to determine the correct license. By default are files without license information under the default license of the kernel, which is GPLV2. Marking them GPLV2 would exclude them from being included in non GPLV2 code, which is obviously not intended. The user space API headers fall under the syscall exception which is in the kernels COPYING file: NOTE! This copyright does *not* cover user programs that use kernel services by normal system calls - this is merely considered normal use of the kernel, and does *not* fall under the heading of "derived work". otherwise syscall usage would not be possible. Update the files which contain no license information with an SPDX license identifier. The chosen identifier is 'GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note' which is the officially assigned identifier for the Linux syscall exception. SPDX license identifiers are a legally binding shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text. This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart and Philippe Ombredanne. See the previous patch in this series for the methodology of how this patch was researched.

* net: bridge: Receive notification about successful FDB offloadArkadi Sharshevsky2017-06-081-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When a new static FDB is added to the bridge a notification is sent to the driver for offload. In case of successful offload the driver should notify the bridge back, which in turn should mark the FDB as offloaded. Currently, externally learned is equivalent for being offloaded which is not correct due to the fact that FDBs which are added from user-space are also marked as externally learned. In order to specify if an FDB was successfully offloaded a new flag is introduced.

* vxlan: support fdb and learning in COLLECT_METADATA modeRoopa Prabhu2017-02-031-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Vxlan COLLECT_METADATA mode today solves the per-vni netdev scalability problem in l3 networks. It expects all forwarding information to be present in dst_metadata. This patch series enhances collect metadata mode to include the case where only vni is present in dst_metadata, and the vxlan driver can then use the rest of the forwarding information datbase to make forwarding decisions. There is no change to default COLLECT_METADATA behaviour. These changes only apply to COLLECT_METADATA when used with the bridging use-case with a special dst_metadata tunnel info flag (eg: where vxlan device is part of a bridge). For all this to work, the vxlan driver will need to now support a single fdb table hashed by mac + vni. This series essentially makes this happen. use-case and workflow: vxlan collect metadata device participates in bridging vlan to vn-segments. Bridge driver above the vxlan device, sends the vni corresponding to the vlan in the dst_metadata. vxlan driver will lookup forwarding database with (mac + vni) for the required remote destination information to forward the packet. Changes introduced by this patch: - allow learning and forwarding database state in vxlan netdev in COLLECT_METADATA mode. Current behaviour is not changed by default. tunnel info flag IP_TUNNEL_INFO_BRIDGE is used to support the new bridge friendly mode. - A single fdb table hashed by (mac, vni) to allow fdb entries with multiple vnis in the same fdb table - rx path already has the vni - tx path expects a vni in the packet with dst_metadata - prior to this series, fdb remote_dsts carried remote vni and the vxlan device carrying the fdb table represented the source vni. With the vxlan device now representing multiple vnis, this patch adds a src vni attribute to the fdb entry. The remote vni already uses NDA_VNI attribute. This patch introduces NDA_SRC_VNI netlink attribute to represent the src vni in a multi vni fdb table. iproute2 example (patched and pruned iproute2 output to just show relevant fdb entries): example shows same host mac learnt on two vni's. before (netdev per vni): $bridge fdb show | grep "00:02:00:00:00:03" 00:02:00:00:00:03 dev vxlan1001 dst 12.0.0.8 self 00:02:00:00:00:03 dev vxlan1000 dst 12.0.0.8 self after this patch with collect metadata in bridged mode (single netdev): $bridge fdb show | grep "00:02:00:00:00:03" 00:02:00:00:00:03 dev vxlan0 src_vni 1001 dst 12.0.0.8 self 00:02:00:00:00:03 dev vxlan0 src_vni 1000 dst 12.0.0.8 self Signed-off-by: Roopa Prabhu <roopa@cumulusnetworks.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

* net: add explicit logging and stat for neighbour table overflowRick Jones2015-08-101-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Add an explicit neighbour table overflow message (ratelimited) and statistic to make diagnosing neighbour table overflows tractable in the wild. Diagnosing a neighbour table overflow can be quite difficult in the wild because there is no explicit dmesg logged. Callers to neighbour code seem to use net_dbg_ratelimit when the neighbour call fails which means the "base message" is not emitted and the callback suppressed messages from the ratelimiting can end-up juxtaposed with unrelated messages. Further, a forced garbage collection will increment a stat on each call whether it was successful in freeing-up a table entry or not, so that statistic is only a hint. So, add a net_info_ratelimited message and explicit statistic to the neighbour code. Signed-off-by: Rick Jones <rick.jones2@hp.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
* net: neighbour: Add mcast_resolicit to configure the number of multicast ↵YOSHIFUJI Hideaki/吉藤英明2015-03-201-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | resolicitations in PROBE state. We send unicast neighbor (ARP or NDP) solicitations ucast_probes times in PROBE state. Zhu Yanjun reported that some implementation does not reply against them and the entry will become FAILED, which is undesirable. We had been dealt with such nodes by sending multicast probes mcast_ solicit times after unicast probes in PROBE state. In 2003, I made a change not to send them to improve compatibility with IPv6 NDP. Let's introduce per-protocol per-interface sysctl knob "mcast_ reprobe" to configure the number of multicast (re)solicitation for reconfirmation in PROBE state. The default is 0, since we have been doing so for 10+ years.

* vxlan: advertise link netns in fdb messagesNicolas Dichtel2015-01-271-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | Previous commit is based on a wrong assumption, fdb messages are always sent into the netns where the interface stands (see vxlan_fdb_notify()). These fdb messages doesn't embed the rtnl attribute IFLA_LINK_NETNSID, thus we need to add it (useful to interpret NDA_IFINDEX or NDA_DST for example). Note also that vxlan_nlmsg_size() was not updated.

| | | | | | | | | | | Netlink FDB messages are sent in the link netns. The header of these messages contains the ifindex (ndm_ifindex) of the netdevice, but this ifindex is unusable in case of x-netns vxlan. I named the new attribute NDA_NDM_IFINDEX_NETNSID, to avoid confusion with NDA_IFINDEX. Signed-off-by: Nicolas Dichtel <nicolas.dichtel@6wind.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
* bridge: add API to notify bridge driver of learned FBD on offloaded deviceScott Feldman2014-12-021-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When the swdev device learns a new mac/vlan on a port, it sends some async notification to the driver and the driver installs an FDB in the device. To give a holistic system view, the learned mac/vlan should be reflected in the bridge's FBD table, so the user, using normal iproute2 cmds, can view what is currently learned by the device. This API on the bridge driver gives a way for the swdev driver to install an FBD entry in the bridge FBD table. (And remove one). This is equivalent to the device running these cmds: bridge fdb [add|del] <mac> dev <dev> vid <vlan id> master This patch needs some extra eyeballs for review, in paricular around the locking and contexts.

* bridge: Add bridge ifindex to bridge fdb notify msgsRoopa Prabhu2014-06-021-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (This patch was previously posted as RFC at http://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/352677/) This patch adds NDA_MASTER attribute to neighbour attributes enum for bridge/master ifindex. And adds NDA_MASTER to bridge fdb notify msgs. Today bridge fdb notifications dont contain bridge information. Userspace can derive it from the port information in the fdb notification. However this is tricky in some scenarious. Example, bridge port delete notification comes before bridge fdb delete notifications. And we have seen problems in userspace when using libnl where, the bridge fdb delete notification handling code does not understand which bridge this fdb entry is part of because the bridge and port association has already been deleted. And these notifications (port membership and fdb) are generated on separate rtnl groups. Fixing the order of notifications could possibly solve the problem for some cases (I can submit a separate patch for that). This patch chooses to add NDA_MASTER to bridge fdb notify msgs because it not only solves the problem described above, but also helps userspace avoid another lookup into link msgs to derive the master index.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch generalizes VXLAN forwarding table entries allowing an administrator to: 1) specify multiple destinations for a given MAC 2) specify alternate vni's in the VXLAN header 3) specify alternate destination UDP ports 4) use multicast MAC addresses as fdb lookup keys 5) specify multicast destinations 6) specify the outgoing interface for forwarded packets The combination allows configuration of more complex topologies using VXLAN encapsulation.
