2013-03-29openvswitch: Refine Netlink message size calculation and kill FLOW_BUFSIZEThomas Graf1-21/+0
Kills the FLOW_BUFSIZE constant which needs to be calculated manually and replaces it with key_attr_size() based on nla_total_size(). Calculates the size of datapath messages instead of relying on NLMSG_DEFAULT_SIZE and moves the existing message size calculations into own functions for clarity.

2012-09-15Merge git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/davem/netDavid S. Miller1-3/+5
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.

2012-09-03openvswitch: Increase maximum number of datapath ports.Pravin B Shelar1-1/+2
Use hash table to store ports of datapath. Allow 64K ports per switch. Signed-off-by: Pravin B Shelar <pshelar@nicira.com> Signed-off-by: Jesse Gross <jesse@nicira.com>
2012-09-03openvswitch: Fix FLOW_BUFSIZE definition.Jesse Gross1-3/+5
The vlan encapsulation fields in the maximum flow defintion were never updated when the representation changed before upstreaming. In theory this could cause a kernel panic when a maximum length flow is used. In practice this has never happened (to my knowledge) because skb allocations are padded out to a cache line so you would need the right combination of flow and packet being sent to userspace.

2011-12-03net: Add Open vSwitch kernel components.Jesse Gross1-0/+199
Open vSwitch is a multilayer Ethernet switch targeted at virtualized environments. In addition to supporting a variety of features expected in a traditional hardware switch, it enables fine-grained programmatic extension and flow-based control of the network. This control is useful in a wide variety of applications but is particularly important in multi-server virtualization deployments, which are often characterized by highly dynamic endpoints and the need to maintain logical abstractions for multiple tenants. The Open vSwitch datapath provides an in-kernel fast path for packet forwarding. It is complemented by a userspace daemon, ovs-vswitchd, which is able to accept configuration from a variety of sources and translate it into packet processing rules. See http://openvswitch.org for more information and userspace utilities. Signed-off-by: Jesse Gross <jesse@nicira.com>
