ipv6: Add a sysctl to control multipath hash fields

2021-05-18T20:27:32Z

A subsequent patch will add a new multipath hash policy where the packet fields used for multipath hash calculation are determined by user space. This patch adds a sysctl that allows user space to set these fields. The packet fields are represented using a bitmask and are common between IPv4 and IPv6 to allow user space to use the same numbering across both protocols. For example, to hash based on standard 5-tuple: # sysctl -w net.ipv6.fib_multipath_hash_fields=0x0037 net.ipv6.fib_multipath_hash_fields = 0x0037 To avoid introducing holes in 'struct netns_sysctl_ipv6', move the 'bindv6only' field after the multipath hash fields. The kernel rejects unknown fields, for example: # sysctl -w net.ipv6.fib_multipath_hash_fields=0x1000 sysctl: setting key "net.ipv6.fib_multipath_hash_fields": Invalid argument Signed-off-by: Ido Schimmel Reviewed-by: David Ahern Signed-off-by: David S.

seg6: add support for IPv4 decapsulation in ipv6_srh_rcv()

2021-03-12T00:09:21Z

As specified in IETF RFC 8754, section 4.3.1.2, if the upper layer header is IPv4 or IPv6, perform IPv6 decapsulation and resubmit the decapsulated packet to the IPv4 or IPv6 module. Only IPv6 decapsulation was implemented. This patch adds support for IPv4 decapsulation.

net: pass a sockptr_t into ->setsockopt

2020-07-24T22:41:54Z

Rework the remaining setsockopt code to pass a sockptr_t instead of a plain user pointer. This removes the last remaining set_fs(KERNEL_DS) outside of architecture specific code.

net/ipv6: switch ipv6_flowlabel_opt to sockptr_t

2020-07-24T22:41:54Z

Pass a sockptr_t to prepare for set_fs-less handling of the kernel pointer from bpf-cgroup. Note that the get case is pretty weird in that it actually copies data back to userspace from setsockopt. Signed-off-by: Christoph Hellwig Signed-off-by: David S. Miller
