2012-10-02openvswitch: Reset upper layer protocol info on internal devices.Jesse Gross1-0/+8
[ Upstream commit 7fe99e2d434eafeac0c57b279a77e5de39212636 ] It's possible that packets that are sent on internal devices (from the OVS perspective) have already traversed the local IP stack. After they go through the internal device, they will again travel through the IP stack which may get confused by the presence of existing information in the skb. The problem can be observed when switching between namespaces. This clears out that information to avoid problems but deliberately leaves other metadata alone. This is to provide maximum flexibility in chaining together OVS and other Linux components.

2012-05-13openvswitch: checking wrong variable in queue_userspace_packet()Dan Carpenter1-1/+1
"skb" is non-NULL here, for example we dereference it in skb_clone(). The intent was to test "nskb" which was just set. Signed-off-by: Dan Carpenter <dan.carpenter@oracle.com> Acked-by: Jesse Gross <jesse@nicira.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2012-05-07openvswitch: Validation of IPv6 set port action uses IPv4 headerPravin B Shelar1-7/+15
When the kernel validates set TCP/UDP port actions, it looks at the ports in the existing flow to make sure that the L4 header exists. However, these actions always use the IPv4 version of the struct. Following patch fixes this by checking for flow ip protocol first.

2012-04-02openvswitch: Add length check when retrieving TCP flags.Jesse Gross1-1/+2
When collecting TCP flags we check that the IP header indicates that a TCP header is present but not that the packet is actually long enough to contain the header. This adds a check to prevent reading off the end of the packet. In practice, this is only likely to result in reading of bad data and not a crash due to the presence of struct skb_shared_info at the end of the packet. Signed-off-by: Jesse Gross <jesse@nicira.com>

2012-03-07openvswitch: Fix checksum update for actions on UDP packets.Jesse Gross1-12/+32
When modifying IP addresses or ports on a UDP packet we don't correctly follow the rules for unchecksummed packets. This meant that packets without a checksum can be given a incorrect new checksum and packets with a checksum can become marked as being unchecksummed. This fixes it to handle those requirements.

2012-03-06openvswitch: Honor dp_ifindex, when specified, for vport lookup by name.Ben Pfaff1-0/+3
When OVS_VPORT_ATTR_NAME is specified and dp_ifindex is nonzero, the logical behavior would be for the vport name lookup scope to be limited to the specified datapath, but in fact the dp_ifindex value was ignored. This commit causes the search scope to be honored. Signed-off-by: Ben Pfaff <blp@nicira.com> Signed-off-by: Jesse Gross <jesse@nicira.com>
2012-02-15net: use eth_hw_addr_random() and reset addr_assign_typeDanny Kukawka1-1/+2
Use eth_hw_addr_random() instead of calling random_ether_addr() to set addr_assign_type correctly to NET_ADDR_RANDOM. Reset the state to NET_ADDR_PERM as soon as the MAC get changed via .ndo_set_mac_address. v2: adapt to renamed eth_hw_addr_random() Signed-off-by: Danny Kukawka <danny.kukawka@bisect.de> Signed-off-by: David S.

2012-01-17openvswitch: Fix multipart datapath dumps.Ben Pfaff1-4/+3
The logic to split up the list of datapaths into multiple Netlink messages was simply wrong, causing the list to be terminated after the first part. Only about the first 50 datapaths would be dumped.

2011-12-03net: Add Open vSwitch kernel components.Jesse Gross14-0/+5215
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>
