net: openvswitch: expand the meters supported number

2020-04-24T01:26:11Z

In kernel datapath of Open vSwitch, there are only 1024 buckets of meter in one datapath. If installing more than 1024 (e.g. 8192) meters, it may lead to the performance drop. But in some case, for example, Open vSwitch used as edge gateway, there should be 20K at least, where meters used for IP address bandwidth limitation. [Open vSwitch userspace datapath has this issue too.] For more scalable meter, this patch use meter array instead of hash tables, and expand/shrink the array when necessary. So we can install more meters than before in the datapath. Introducing the struct *dp_meter_instance, it's easy to expand meter though changing the *ti point in the struct *dp_meter_table.

net: openvswitch: add hash info to upcall

2019-11-15T01:29:46Z

When using the kernel datapath, the upcall don't include skb hash info relatived. That will introduce some problem, because the hash of skb is important in kernel stack. For example, VXLAN module uses it to select UDP src port. The tx queue selection may also use the hash in stack. Hash is computed in different ways. Hash is random for a TCP socket, and hash may be computed in hardware, or software stack. Recalculation hash is not easy. Hash of TCP socket is computed: tcp_v4_connect -> sk_set_txhash (is random) __tcp_transmit_skb -> skb_set_hash_from_sk There will be one upcall, without information of skb hash, to ovs-vswitchd, for the first packet of a TCP session. The rest packets will be processed in Open vSwitch modules, hash kept. If this tcp session is forward to VXLAN module, then the UDP src port of first tcp packet is different from rest packets. TCP packets may come from the host or dockers, to Open vSwitch. To fix it, we store the hash info to upcall, and restore hash when packets sent back. +---------------+ +-------------------------+ | Docker/VMs | | ovs-vswitchd | +----+----------+ +-+--------------------+--+ | ^ | | | | | | upcall v restore packet hash (not recalculate) | +-+--------------------+--+ | tap netdev | | vxlan module +---------------> +--> Open vSwitch ko +--> or internal type | | +-------------------------+ Reported-at: https://mail.openvswitch.org/pipermail/ovs-dev/2019-October/364062.html Signed-off-by: Tonghao Zhang Acked-by: Pravin B Shelar Signed-off-by: David S.

net: openvswitch: Set OvS recirc_id from tc chain index

2019-09-06T12:59:18Z

Offloaded OvS datapath rules are translated one to one to tc rules, for example the following simplified OvS rule: recirc_id(0),in_port(dev1),eth_type(0x0800),ct_state(-trk) actions:ct(),recirc(2) Will be translated to the following tc rule: $ tc filter add dev dev1 ingress \ prio 1 chain 0 proto ip \ flower tcp ct_state -trk \ action ct pipe \ action goto chain 2 Received packets will first travel though tc, and if they aren't stolen by it, like in the above rule, they will continue to OvS datapath. Since we already did some actions (action ct in this case) which might modify the packets, and updated action stats, we would like to continue the proccessing with the correct recirc_id in OvS (here recirc_id(2)) where we left off. To support this, introduce a new skb extension for tc, which will be used for translating tc chain to ovs recirc_id to handle these miss cases. Last tc chain index will be set by tc goto chain action and read by OvS datapath.

openvswitch: Support conntrack zone limit

2018-05-25T20:45:19Z

Currently, nf_conntrack_max is used to limit the maximum number of conntrack entries in the conntrack table for every network namespace. For the VMs and containers that reside in the same namespace, they share the same conntrack table, and the total # of conntrack entries for all the VMs and containers are limited by nf_conntrack_max. In this case, if one of the VM/container abuses the usage the conntrack entries, it blocks the others from committing valid conntrack entries into the conntrack table. Even if we can possibly put the VM in different network namespace, the current nf_conntrack_max configuration is kind of rigid that we cannot limit different VM/container to have different # conntrack entries. To address the aforementioned issue, this patch proposes to have a fine-grained mechanism that could further limit the # of conntrack entries per-zone. For example, we can designate different zone to different VM, and set conntrack limit to each zone. By providing this isolation, a mis-behaved VM only consumes the conntrack entries in its own zone, and it will not influence other well-behaved VMs. Moreover, the users can set various conntrack limit to different zone based on their preference. The proposed implementation utilizes Netfilter's nf_conncount backend to count the number of connections in a particular zone. If the number of connection is above a configured limitation, ovs will return ENOMEM to the userspace. If userspace does not configure the zone limit, the limit defaults to zero that is no limitation, which is backward compatible to the behavior without this patch. The following high leve APIs are provided to the userspace: - OVS_CT_LIMIT_CMD_SET: * set default connection limit for all zones * set the connection limit for a particular zone - OVS_CT_LIMIT_CMD_DEL: * remove the connection limit for a particular zone - OVS_CT_LIMIT_CMD_GET: * get the default connection limit for all zones * get the connection limit for a particular zone Signed-off-by: Yi-Hung Wei Acked-by: Pravin B Shelar Signed-off-by: David S.

openvswitch: reliable interface indentification in port dumps

2017-11-05T12:49:17Z

This patch allows reliable identification of netdevice interfaces connected to openvswitch bridges. In particular, user space queries the netdev interfaces belonging to the ports for statistics, up/down state, etc. Datapath dump needs to provide enough information for the user space to be able to do that. Currently, only interface names are returned. This is not sufficient, as openvswitch allows its ports to be in different name spaces and the interface name is valid only in its name space. What is needed and generally used in other netlink APIs, is the pair ifindex+netnsid. The solution is addition of the ifindex+netnsid pair (or only ifindex if in the same name space) to vport get/dump operation. On request side, ideally the ifindex+netnsid pair could be used to get/set/del the corresponding vport. This is not implemented by this patch and can be added later if needed.

openvswitch: fix skb_panic due to the incorrect actions attrlen

2017-08-16T21:12:37Z

For sw_flow_actions, the actions_len only represents the kernel part's size, and when we dump the actions to the userspace, we will do the convertions, so it's true size may become bigger than the actions_len. But unfortunately, for OVS_PACKET_ATTR_ACTIONS, we use the actions_len to alloc the skbuff, so the user_skb's size may become insufficient and oops will happen like this: skbuff: skb_over_panic: text:ffffffff8148fabf len:1749 put:157 head: ffff881300f39000 data:ffff881300f39000 tail:0x6d5 end:0x6c0 dev: ------------[ cut here ]------------ kernel BUG at net/core/skbuff.c:129!

Last, this oops happened on our system running a relative old kernel, but the same risk still exists on the mainline, since we use the wrong actions_len from the beginning.
