net: openvswitch: use this_cpu_ptr per-cpu helper

2012-11-16T21:26:20Z

just use more faster this_cpu_ptr instead of per_cpu_ptr(p, smp_processor_id()); Signed-off-by: Shan Wei Reviewed-by: Christoph Lameter Signed-off-by: Jesse Gross

openvswitch: add ipv6 'set' action

2012-11-13T23:57:33Z

This patch adds ipv6 set action functionality. It allows to change traffic class, flow label, hop-limit, ipv6 source and destination address fields. Signed-off-by: Ansis Atteka Signed-off-by: Jesse Gross

Conflicts: net/netfilter/nfnetlink_log.c net/netfilter/xt_LOG.c Rather easy conflict resolution, the 'net' tree had bug fixes to make sure we checked if a socket is a time-wait one or not and elide the logging code if so. Whereas on the 'net-next' side we are calculating the UID and GID from the creds using different interfaces due to the user namespace changes from Eric Biederman. Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

netlink: Rename pid to portid to avoid confusion

2012-09-10T19:30:41Z

It is a frequent mistake to confuse the netlink port identifier with a process identifier. Try to reduce this confusion by renaming fields that hold port identifiers portid instead of pid. I have carefully avoided changing the structures exported to userspace to avoid changing the userspace API. I have successfully built an allyesconfig kernel with this change. Signed-off-by: "Eric W.

openvswitch: Increase maximum number of datapath ports.

2012-09-04T02:20:49Z

Use hash table to store ports of datapath. Allow 64K ports per switch. Signed-off-by: Pravin B Shelar Signed-off-by: Jesse Gross

openvswitch: Add support for network namespaces.

2012-08-22T21:48:55Z

Following patch adds support for network namespace to openvswitch. Since it must release devices when namespaces are destroyed, a side effect of this patch is that the module no longer keeps a refcount but instead cleans up any state when it is unloaded.

openvswitch: Relax set header validation.

2012-08-06T22:49:47Z

When installing a flow with an action to set a particular field we need to validate that the packets that are part of the flow actually contain that header. With IP we use zeroed addresses and with TCP/UDP the check is for zeroed ports. This check is overly broad and can catch packets like DHCP requests that have a zero source address in a legitimate header. This changes the check to look for a zeroed protocol number for IP or for both ports be zero for TCP/UDP before considering the header to not exist.

openvswitch: Check gso_type for correct sk_buff in queue_gso_packets().

2012-07-20T21:47:54Z

At the point where it was used, skb_shinfo(skb)->gso_type referred to a post-GSO sk_buff. Thus, it would always be 0. We want to know the pre-GSO gso_type, so we need to obtain it before segmenting. Before this change, the kernel would pass inconsistent data to userspace: packets for UDP fragments with nonzero offset would be passed along with flow keys that indicate a zero offset (that is, the flow key for "later" fragments claimed to be "first" fragments). This inconsistency tended to confuse Open vSwitch userspace, causing it to log messages about "failed to flow_del" the flows with "later" fragments. Signed-off-by: Ben Pfaff Signed-off-by: Jesse Gross
