openvswitch: packet messages need their own probe attribtue

2015-01-14T21:49:44Z

User space is currently sending a OVS_FLOW_ATTR_PROBE for both flow and packet messages. This leads to an out-of-bounds access in ovs_packet_cmd_execute() because OVS_FLOW_ATTR_PROBE > OVS_PACKET_ATTR_MAX. Introduce a new OVS_PACKET_ATTR_PROBE with the same numeric value as OVS_FLOW_ATTR_PROBE to grow the range of accepted packet attributes while maintaining to be binary compatible with existing OVS binaries. Fixes: 05da589 ("openvswitch: Add support for OVS_FLOW_ATTR_PROBE.")

genetlink: pass only network namespace to genl_has_listeners()

2014-12-27T07:20:23Z

There's no point to force the caller to know about the internal genl_sock to use inside struct net, just have them pass the network namespace. This doesn't really change code generation since it's an inline, but makes the caller less magic - there's never any reason to pass another socket.

Merge git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/davem/net

2014-11-22T03:28:24Z

Conflicts: drivers/net/ieee802154/fakehard.c A bug fix went into 'net' for ieee802154/fakehard.c, which is removed in 'net-next'. Add build fix into the merge from Stephen Rothwell in openvswitch, the logging macros take a new initial 'log' argument, a new call was added in 'net' so when we merge that in here we have to explicitly add the new 'log' arg to it else the build fails.

vlan: introduce *vlan_hwaccel_push_inside helpers

2014-11-21T19:20:17Z

Use them to push skb->vlan_tci into the payload and avoid code duplication. Signed-off-by: Jiri Pirko Acked-by: Pravin B Shelar Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

vlan: rename __vlan_put_tag to vlan_insert_tag_set_proto

2014-11-21T19:20:17Z

Name fits better. Plus there's going to be introduced __vlan_insert_tag later on. Signed-off-by: Jiri Pirko Acked-by: Pravin B Shelar Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

openvswitch: Convert dp rcu read operation to locked operations

2014-11-14T23:13:26Z

dp read operations depends on ovs_dp_cmd_fill_info(). This API needs to looup vport to find dp name, but vport lookup can fail. Therefore to keep vport reference alive we need to take ovs lock. Introduced by commit 6093ae9abac1 ("openvswitch: Minimize dp and vport critical sections"). Signed-off-by: Pravin B Shelar Acked-by: Andy Zhou

openvswitch: Add support for OVS_FLOW_ATTR_PROBE.

2014-11-10T02:58:44Z

This new flag is useful for suppressing error logging while probing for datapath features using flow commands. For backwards compatibility reasons the commands are executed normally, but error logging is suppressed. Signed-off-by: Jarno Rajahalme Signed-off-by: Pravin B Shelar

openvswitch: Remove redundant key ref from upcall_info.

2014-11-10T02:58:44Z

struct dp_upcall_info has pointer to pkt_key which is already available in OVS_CB. This also simplifies upcall handling for gso packet. Signed-off-by: Pravin B Shelar Acked-by: Andy Zhou

openvswitch: Extend packet attribute for egress tunnel info

2014-11-10T02:58:44Z

OVS vswitch has extended IPFIX exporter to export tunnel headers to improve network visibility. To export this information userspace needs to know egress tunnel for given packet. By extending packet attributes datapath can export egress tunnel info for given packet. So that userspace can ask for egress tunnel info in userspace action. This information is used to build IPFIX data for given flow. Signed-off-by: Wenyu Zhang Acked-by: Romain Lenglet Acked-by: Ben Pfaff Signed-off-by: Pravin B Shelar
