ipv6_tunnel: Allow receiving packets on the fallback tunnel if they pass sanity checks

2012-06-29T07:52:32Z

At Facebook, we do Layer-3 DSR via IP-in-IP tunneling. Our load balancers wrap an extra IP header on incoming packets so they can be routed to the backend. In the v4 tunnel driver, when these packets fall on the default tunl0 device, the behavior is to decapsulate them and drop them back on the stack. So our setup is that tunl0 has the VIP and eth0 has (obviously) the backend's real address. In IPv6 we do the same thing, but the v6 tunnel driver didn't have this same behavior - if you didn't have an explicit tunnel setup, it would drop the packet. This patch brings that v4 feature to the v6 driver. The same IPv6 address checks are performed as with any normal tunnel, but as the fallback tunnel endpoint addresses are unspecified, the checks must be performed on a per-packet basis, rather than at tunnel configuration time.

ipv6 ip6_tunnel: eliminate unused recursion field from ip6_tnl{}.

2010-03-10T15:32:29Z

Commit a43912ab19... ("tunnel: eliminate recursion field") eliminated use of recursion field from tunnel structures, but its definition still exists in ip6_tnl{}. Let's remove that unused field. Signed-off-by: YOSHIFUJI Hideaki Acked-by: Eric Dumazet Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

ip6tnl: Use on-device stats instead of private ones.

2008-05-21T21:17:05Z

This tunnel uses its own private structure and requires separate patch to switch from private stats to on-device ones. Signed-off-by: Pavel Emelyanov Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

[IP_TUNNEL]: Don't limit the number of tunnels with generic name explicitly.

2008-02-24T04:19:20Z

Use the added dev_alloc_name() call to create tunnel device name, rather than iterate in a hand-made loop with an artificial limit. Thanks Patrick for noticing this. [ The way this works is, when the device is actually registered, the generic code noticed the '%' in the name and invokes dev_alloc_name() to fully resolve the name. -DaveM ] Signed-off-by: Pavel Emelyanov Signed-off-by: David S.

Linux-2.6.12-rc2

2005-04-16T22:20:36Z

Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history, even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about 3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good infrastructure for it. Let it rip!
