* vmxnet3: prevent building with 64K pagesArnd Bergmann2017-02-171-0/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | I got a warning about broken code on ARM64 with 64K pages: drivers/net/vmxnet3/vmxnet3_drv.c: In function 'vmxnet3_rq_init': drivers/net/vmxnet3/vmxnet3_drv.c:1679:29: error: large integer implicitly truncated to unsigned type [-Werror=overflow] rq->buf_info[0][i].len = PAGE_SIZE; 'len' here is a 16-bit integer, so this clearly won't work. I don't think this driver is used much on anything other than x86, so there is no need to fix this properly and we can work around it with a Kconfig dependency to forbid known-broken configurations. qemu in theory supports it on other architectures too, but presumably only for compatibility with x86 guests that also run on vmware. CONFIG_PAGE_SIZE_64KB is used on hexagon, mips, sh and tile, the other symbols are architecture-specific names for the same thing. Signed-off-by: Arnd Bergmann <arnd@arndb.de> Signed-off-by: David S.

* ipvtap: IP-VLAN based tap driverSainath Grandhi2017-02-111-0/+13
| | | | | | | | | | This patch adds a tap character device driver that is based on the IP-VLAN network interface, called ipvtap.

* ipvlan: Introduce l3s modeMahesh Bandewar2016-09-191-0/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In a typical IPvlan L3 setup where master is in default-ns and each slave is into different (slave) ns. In this setup egress packet processing for traffic originating from slave-ns will hit all NF_HOOKs in slave-ns as well as default-ns. However same is not true for ingress processing. All these NF_HOOKs are hit only in the slave-ns skipping them in the default-ns. IPvlan in L3 mode is restrictive and if admins want to deploy iptables rules in default-ns, this asymmetric data path makes it impossible to do so. This patch makes use of the l3_rcv() (added as part of l3mdev enhancements) to perform input route lookup on RX packets without changing the skb->dev and then uses nf_hook at NF_INET_LOCAL_IN to change the skb->dev just before handing over skb to L4.

* gtp: add initial driver for datapath of GPRS Tunneling Protocol (GTP-U)Pablo Neira2016-05-101-0/+17
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This is an initial implementation of a netdev driver for GTP datapath (GTP-U) v0 and v1, according to the GSM TS 09.60 and 3GPP TS 29.060 standards. This tunneling protocol is used to prevent subscribers from accessing mobile carrier core network infrastructure. This implementation requires a GGSN userspace daemon that implements the signaling protocol (GTP-C), such as OpenGGSN [1]. This userspace daemon updates the PDP context database that represents active subscriber sessions through a genetlink interface. For more context on this tunneling protocol, you can check the slides that were presented during the NetDev 1.1 [2]. Only IPv4 is supported at this time.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This driver borrows heavily from IPvlan and teaming drivers. Routing domains (VRF-lite) are created by instantiating a VRF master device with an associated table and enslaving all routed interfaces that participate in the domain. As part of the enslavement, all connected routes for the enslaved devices are moved to the table associated with the VRF device. Outgoing sockets must bind to the VRF device to function. Standard FIB rules bind the VRF device to tables and regular fib rule processing is followed. Routed traffic through the box, is forwarded by using the VRF device as the IIF and following the IIF rule to a table that is mated with the VRF. Example: Create vrf 1: ip link add vrf1 type vrf table 5 ip rule add iif vrf1 table 5 ip rule add oif vrf1 table 5 ip route add table 5 prohibit default ip link set vrf1 up Add interface to vrf 1: ip link set eth1 master vrf1 Signed-off-by: Shrijeet Mukherjee <shm@cumulusnetworks.com> Signed-off-by: David Ahern <dsa@cumulusnetworks.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

There are two redeeming properties that made me merge this: - It's a trivial amount of code: since we wrap host/guest accesses anyway, almost all of it is well hidden from drivers. - Sane platforms would never set flags like VHOST_CROSS_ENDIAN_LEGACY, and when it's clear, there's zero overhead (as some point it was tested by compiling with and without the patches, got the same stripped binary).

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | This driver is very similar to the macvlan driver except that it uses L3 on the frame to determine the logical interface while functioning as packet dispatcher. It inherits L2 of the master device hence the packets on wire will have the same L2 for all the packets originating from all virtual devices off of the same master device. This driver was developed keeping the namespace use-case in mind. Hence most of the examples given here take that as the base setup where main-device belongs to the default-ns and virtual devices are assigned to the additional namespaces. The device operates in two different modes and the difference in these two modes in primarily in the TX side. (a) L2 mode : In this mode, the device behaves as a L2 device. TX processing upto L2 happens on the stack of the virtual device associated with (namespace). Packets are switched after that into the main device (default-ns) and queued for xmit. RX processing is simple and all multicast, broadcast (if applicable), and unicast belonging to the address(es) are delivered to the virtual devices. (b) L3 mode : In this mode, the device behaves like a L3 device. TX processing upto L3 happens on the stack of the virtual device associated with (namespace). Packets are switched to the main-device (default-ns) for the L2 processing. Hence the routing table of the default-ns will be used in this mode. RX processins is somewhat similar to the L2 mode except that in this mode only Unicast packets are delivered to the virtual device while main-dev will handle all other packets. The devices can be added using the "ip" command from the iproute2 package - ip link add link <master> <virtual> type ipvlan mode [ l2 | l3 ] Signed-off-by: Mahesh Bandewar <maheshb@google.com> Cc: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@google.com> Cc: Maciej Żenczykowski <maze@google.com> Cc: Laurent Chavey <chavey@google.com> Cc: Tim Hockin <thockin@google.com> Cc: Brandon Philips <brandon.philips@coreos.com> Cc: Pavel Emelianov <xemul@parallels.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

All of the out of tree implementations I have found all call netpoll_poll which was removed from the kernel in 2011, so this change should not add any additional breakage. There are problems with the netpoll packet receive code. __netpoll_rx does not call dev_kfree_skb_irq or dev_kfree_skb_any in hard irq context. netpoll_neigh_reply leaks every skb it receives. Reception of packets does not work successfully on stacked devices (aka bonding, team, bridge, and vlans). Given that the netpoll packet receive code is buggy, there are no out of tree users that will be merged soon, and the code has not been used for in tree for a decade let's just remove it.

* packet: nlmon: virtual netlink monitoring device for packet socketsDaniel Borkmann2013-06-241-0/+10
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently, there is no good possibility to debug netlink traffic that is being exchanged between kernel and user space. Therefore, this patch implements a netlink virtual device, so that netlink messages will be made visible to PF_PACKET sockets. Once there was an approach with a similar idea [1], but it got forgotten somehow. I think it makes most sense to accept the "overhead" of an extra netlink net device over implementing the same functionality from PF_PACKET sockets once again into netlink sockets. We have BPF filters that can already be easily applied which even have netlink extensions, we have RX_RING zero-copy between kernel- and user space that can be reused, and much more features. So instead of re-implementing all of this, we simply pass the skb to a given PF_PACKET socket for further analysis. Another nice benefit that comes from that is that no code needs to be changed in user space packet analyzers (maybe adding a dissector, but not more), thus out of the box, we can already capture pcap files of netlink traffic to debug/troubleshoot netlink problems. Also thanks goes to Thomas Graf, Flavio Leitner, Jesper Dangaard Brouer.

Fix from yuchung Cheng. 6) MLX4 driver allocates device queues with the wrong size, from Kleber Sacilotto. 7) sock_diag can access past the end of the sock_diag_handlers[] array, from Mathias Krause. 8) vlan_set_encap_proto() makes incorrect assumptions about where skb->data points, rework the logic so that it works regardless of where skb->data happens to be. From Jesse Gross. 9) Fix gianfar build failure with NET_POLL enabled, from Paul Gortmaker. 10) Fix Ipv4 ID setting and checksum calculations in GRE driver, from Pravin B Shelar. 11) bgmac driver does: int i; for (i = 0; ...; ...) { ... for (i = 0; ...; ...) { effectively corrupting the outer loop index, use a seperate variable for the inner loops. From Rafał Miłecki. 12) Fix suspend bugs in smsc95xx driver, from Ming Lei. * git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/davem/net: (35 commits) usbnet: smsc95xx: rename FEATURE_AUTOSUSPEND usbnet: smsc95xx: fix broken runtime suspend usbnet: smsc95xx: fix suspend failure bgmac: fix indexing of 2nd level loops b43: Fix lockdep splat on module unload Revert "ip_gre: propogate target device GSO capability to the tunnel device" IP_GRE: Fix GRE_CSUM case.

I don't exactly know why drivers for this protocol are stored into the root 'driver' folder, but better will be to store them with other networking stuff. Currently there are only 3 drivers available for IEEE 802.15.4 stack, so lets do it now with the smallest overhead.
