2018-04-01T03:37:32+00:00

Ethtool option enables TLS record offload on HW, user
configures the feature for netdev capable of Inline TLS.
This allows user to define custom sk_prot for Inline TLS sock

net: Introduce NETIF_F_GRO_HW.

2017-12-19T15:38:36+00:00

Introduce NETIF_F_GRO_HW feature flag for NICs that support hardware
GRO.  With this flag, we can now independently turn on or off hardware
GRO when GRO is on.  Previously, drivers were using NETIF_F_GRO to
control hardware GRO and so it cannot be independently turned on or
off without affecting GRO.

Hardware GRO (just like GRO) guarantees that packets can be re-segmented
by TSO/GSO to reconstruct the original packet stream.  Logically,
GRO_HW should depend on GRO since it a subset, but we will let
individual drivers enforce this dependency as they see fit.

Since NETIF_F_GRO is not propagated between upper and lower devices,
NETIF_F_GRO_HW should follow suit since it is a subset of GRO.  In other
words, a lower device can independent have GRO/GRO_HW enabled or disabled
and no feature propagation is required.  This will preserve the current
GRO behavior.  This can be changed later if we decide to propagate GRO/
GRO_HW/RXCSUM from upper to lower devices.

net: accept UFO datagrams from tuntap and packet

2017-11-23T16:37:35+00:00

Tuntap and similar devices can inject GSO packets. Accept type
VIRTIO_NET_HDR_GSO_UDP, even though not generating UFO natively.

Processes are expected to use feature negotiation such as TUNSETOFFLOAD
to detect supported offload types and refrain from injecting other
packets. This process breaks down with live migration: guest kernels
do not renegotiate flags, so destination hosts need to expose all
features that the source host does.

Partially revert the UFO removal from 182e0b6b5846~1..d9d30adf5677.
This patch introduces nearly(*) no new code to simplify verification.
It brings back verbatim tuntap UFO negotiation, VIRTIO_NET_HDR_GSO_UDP
insertion and software UFO segmentation.

It does not reinstate protocol stack support, hardware offload
(NETIF_F_UFO), SKB_GSO_UDP tunneling in SKB_GSO_SOFTWARE or reception
of VIRTIO_NET_HDR_GSO_UDP packets in tuntap.

To support SKB_GSO_UDP reappearing in the stack, also reinstate
logic in act_csum and openvswitch. Achieve equivalence with v4.13 HEAD
by squashing in commit 939912216fa8 ("net: skb_needs_check() removes
CHECKSUM_UNNECESSARY check for tx.") and reverting commit 8d63bee643f1
("net: avoid skb_warn_bad_offload false positives on UFO").

(*) To avoid having to bring back skb_shinfo(skb)->ip6_frag_id,
ipv6_proxy_select_ident is changed to return a __be32 and this is
assigned directly to the frag_hdr. Also, SKB_GSO_UDP is inserted
at the end of the enum to minimize code churn.

Tested
  Booted a v4.13 guest kernel with QEMU. On a host kernel before this
  patch `ethtool -k eth0` shows UFO disabled. After the patch, it is
  enabled, same as on a v4.13 host kernel.

  A UFO packet sent from the guest appears on the tap device:
    host:
      nc -l -p -u 8000 &
      tcpdump -n -i tap0

    guest:
      dd if=/dev/zero of=payload.txt bs=1 count=2000
      nc -u 192.16.1.1 8000 < payload.txt

  Direct tap to tap transmission of VIRTIO_NET_HDR_GSO_UDP succeeds,
  packets arriving fragmented:

    ./with_tap_pair.sh ./tap_send_ufo tap0 tap1
    (from https://github.com/wdebruij/kerneltools/tree/master/tests)

net: add new netdevice feature for offload of RX port for UDP tunnels

2017-07-24T20:52:59+00:00

This adds a new netdevice feature, so that the offloading of RX port for
UDP tunnels can be disabled by the administrator on some netdevices,
using the "rx-udp_tunnel-port-offload" feature in ethtool.

This feature is set for all devices that provide ndo_udp_tunnel_add.

net: remove support for per driver ndo_busy_poll()

2017-02-03T22:28:29+00:00

We added generic support for busy polling in NAPI layer in linux-4.5

No network driver uses ndo_busy_poll() anymore, we can get rid
of the pointer in struct net_device_ops, and its use in sk_busy_loop()

Saves NETIF_F_BUSY_POLL features bit.

sctp: Add GSO support

2016-06-03T23:37:21+00:00

SCTP has this pecualiarity that its packets cannot be just segmented to
(P)MTU. Its chunks must be contained in IP segments, padding respected.
So we can't just generate a big skb, set gso_size to the fragmentation
point and deliver it to IP layer.

This patch takes a different approach. SCTP will now build a skb as it
would be if it was received using GRO. That is, there will be a cover
skb with protocol headers and children ones containing the actual
segments, already segmented to a way that respects SCTP RFCs.

With that, we can tell skb_segment() to just split based on frag_list,
trusting its sizes are already in accordance.

This way SCTP can benefit from GSO and instead of passing several
packets through the stack, it can pass a single large packet.

v2:
- Added support for receiving GSO frames, as requested by Dave Miller.
- Clear skb->cb if packet is GSO (otherwise it's not used by SCTP)
- Added heuristics similar to what we have in TCP for not generating
  single GSO packets that fills cwnd.
v3:
- consider sctphdr size in skb_gso_transport_seglen()
- rebased due to 5c7cdf339af5 ("gso: Remove arbitrary checks for
  unsupported GSO")

net: define gso types for IPx over IPv4 and IPv6

2016-05-20T22:03:15+00:00

This patch defines two new GSO definitions SKB_GSO_IPXIP4 and
SKB_GSO_IPXIP6 along with corresponding NETIF_F_GSO_IPXIP4 and
NETIF_F_GSO_IPXIP6. These are used to described IP in IP
tunnel and what the outer protocol is. The inner protocol
can be deduced from other GSO types (e.g. SKB_GSO_TCPV4 and
SKB_GSO_TCPV6). The GSO types of SKB_GSO_IPIP and SKB_GSO_SIT
are removed (these are both instances of SKB_GSO_IPXIP4).
SKB_GSO_IPXIP6 will be used when support for GSO with IP
encapsulation over IPv6 is added.

netdev_features: Fold NETIF_F_ALL_TSO into NETIF_F_GSO_SOFTWARE

2016-04-21T18:14:58+00:00

This patch folds NETIF_F_ALL_TSO into the bitmask for NETIF_F_GSO_SOFTWARE.
The idea is to avoid duplication of defines since the only difference
between the two was the GSO_UDP bit.
