Jarno Rajahalme 83d2b9ba1a net: openvswitch: Support masked set actions.
OVS userspace already probes the openvswitch kernel module for
OVS_ACTION_ATTR_SET_MASKED support.  This patch adds the kernel module
implementation of masked set actions.

The existing set action sets many fields at once.  When only a subset
of the IP header fields, for example, should be modified, all the IP
fields need to be exact matched so that the other field values can be
copied to the set action.  A masked set action allows modification of
an arbitrary subset of the supported header bits without requiring the
rest to be matched.

Masked set action is now supported for all writeable key types, except
for the tunnel key.  The set tunnel action is an exception as any
input tunnel info is cleared before action processing starts, so there
is no tunnel info to mask.

The kernel module converts all (non-tunnel) set actions to masked set
actions.  This makes action processing more uniform, and results in
less branching and duplicating the action processing code.  When
returning actions to userspace, the fully masked set actions are
converted back to normal set actions.  We use a kernel internal action
code to be able to tell the userspace provided and converted masked
set actions apart.

Jesse Gross 856447d020 openvswitch: Fix checksum calculation when modifying ICMPv6 packets.
The checksum of ICMPv6 packets uses the IP pseudoheader as part of
the calculation, unlike ICMP in IPv4. This was not implemented,
which means that modifying the IP addresses of an ICMPv6 packet

did not match.

Pravin B Shelar fff06c36a2 openvswitch: Optimize recirc action.
OVS need to flow key for flow lookup in recic action. OVS
does key extract in recic action. Most of cases we could
use OVS_CB packet key directly and can avoid packet flow key
extract. SET action we can update flow-key along with packet
to keep it consistent. But there are some action like MPLS
pop which forces OVS to do flow-extract. In such cases we
can mark flow key as invalid so that subsequent recirc
action can do full flow extract.

to improve network visibility.
To export this information userspace needs to know egress tunnel

It was as pointed out by Thomas Graf that this helper would be best off

helper means it is best off in netlink.h regardless of if it is used more
than one .c file or not. Thus, I would like it considered independent of

Jesse Gross f0b128c1e2 openvswitch: Wrap struct ovs_key_ipv4_tunnel in a new structure.
Currently, the flow information that is matched for tunnels and
the tunnel data passed around with packets is the same. However,
as additional information is added this is not necessarily desirable,
as in the case of pointers.

This adds a new structure for tunnel metadata which currently contains
only the existing struct. This change is purely internal to the kernel
since the current OVS_KEY_ATTR_IPV4_TUNNEL is simply a compressed version
of OVS_KEY_ATTR_TUNNEL that is translated at flow setup.

Andy Zhou 971427f353 openvswitch: Add recirc and hash action.
Recirc action allows a packet to reenter openvswitch processing.
currently openvswitch lookup flow for packet received and execute
set of actions on that packet, with help of recirc action we can
process/modify the packet and recirculate it back in openvswitch
for another pass.

OVS hash action calculates 5-tupple hash and set hash in flow-key
hash. This can be used along with recirculation for distributing
packets among different ports for bond devices.
For example:
OVS bonding can use following actions:
Match on: bond flow; Action: hash, recirc(id)
Match on: recirc-id == id and hash lower bits == a;
          Action: output port_bond_a

Jiri Benc 2ba5af42a7 openvswitch: fix panic with multiple vlan headers
When there are multiple vlan headers present in a received frame, the first
one is put into vlan_tci and protocol is set to ETH_P_8021Q. Anything in the
skb beyond the VLAN TPID may be still non-linear, including the inner TCI
and ethertype. While ovs_flow_extract takes care of IP and IPv6 headers, it
does nothing with ETH_P_8021Q. Later, if OVS_ACTION_ATTR_POP_VLAN is
executed, __pop_vlan_tci pulls the next vlan header into vlan_tci.

This leads to two things:

1. Part of the resulting ethernet header is in the non-linear part of the
   skb. When eth_type_trans is called later as the result of
   OVS_ACTION_ATTR_OUTPUT, kernel BUGs in __skb_pull. Also, __pop_vlan_tci
   is in fact accessing random data when it reads past the TPID.

2. network_header points into the ethernet header instead of behind it.
   mac_len is set to a wrong value (10), too.

Simon Horman 651887b0c2 openvswitch: Sample action without side effects
The sample action is rather generic, allowing arbitrary actions to be
executed based on a probability. However its use, within the Open
vSwitch
code-base is limited: only a single user-space action is ever nested.

A consequence of the current implementation of sample actions is that
depending on weather the sample action executed (due to its probability)
any side-effects of nested actions may or may not be present before
executing subsequent actions.  This has the potential to complicate
verification of valid actions by the (kernel) datapath. And indeed
adding support for push and pop MPLS actions inside sample actions
is one case where such case.

In order to allow all supported actions to be continue to be nested
inside sample actions without the potential need for complex
verification code this patch changes the implementation of the sample
action in the kernel datapath so that sample actions are more like
a function call and any side effects of nested actions are not
present when executing subsequent actions.

With the above in mind the motivation for this change is twofold:

* To contain side-effects the sample action in the hope of making it
  easier to deal with in the future and;
* To avoid some rather complex verification code introduced in the MPLS
  datapath patch.

Jesse Gross 36bf5cc66d openvswitch: Reset tunnel key between input and output.
It doesn't make sense to output a tunnel packet using the same
parameters that it was received with since that will generally
just result in the packet going back to us. As a result, userspace
assumes that the tunnel key is cleared when transitioning through
the switch. In the majority of cases this doesn't matter since a
packet is either going to a tunnel port (in which the key is
overwritten with new values) or to a non-tunnel port (in which
case the key is ignored). However, it's theoreticaly possible that
userspace could rely on the documented behavior, so this corrects
it.

Cong Wang 7b024082b2 openvswitch: fix the calculation of checksum for vlan header
In vlan_insert_tag(), we insert a 4-byte VLAN header _after_
mac header:

        memmove(skb->data, skb->data + VLAN_HLEN, 2 * ETH_ALEN);
        ...
        veth->h_vlan_proto = htons(ETH_P_8021Q);
        ...
        veth->h_vlan_TCI = htons(vlan_tci);

so after it, we should recompute the checksum to include these 4 bytes.
skb->data still points to the mac header, therefore VLAN header is at
(2 * ETH_ALEN = 12) bytes after it, not (ETH_HLEN = 14) bytes.

This can also be observed via tcpdump:

         0x0000:  ffff ffff ffff 5254 005d 6f6e 8100 000a
         0x0010:  0806 0001 0800 0604 0001 5254 005d 6f6e
         0x0020:  c0a8 026e 0000 0000 0000 c0a8 0282

Similar for __pop_vlan_tci(), the vlan header we remove is the one
overwritten in:

	memmove(skb->data + VLAN_HLEN, skb->data, 2 * ETH_ALEN);

Therefore the VLAN_HLEN = 4 bytes after 2 * ETH_ALEN is the part
we want to sub from checksum.

that hold port identifiers portid instead of pid.

I have carefully avoided changing the structures exported to
userspace to avoid changing the userspace API.

I have successfully built an allyesconfig kernel with this change.

Jesse Gross 6081030769 Revert "openvswitch: potential NULL deref in sample()"
This reverts commit 5b3e7e6cb5.

The problem that the original commit was attempting to fix can
never happen in practice because validation is done one a per-flow
basis rather than a per-packet basis.  Adding additional checks at
runtime is unnecessary and inconsistent with the rest of the code.

Dan Carpenter 5b3e7e6cb5 openvswitch: potential NULL deref in sample()
If there is no OVS_SAMPLE_ATTR_ACTIONS set then "acts_list" is NULL and
it leads to a NULL dereference when we call nla_len(acts_list).  This
is a static checker fix, not something I have seen in testing.

Jesse Gross 81e5d41d7e openvswitch: Fix checksum update for actions on UDP packets.
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.

Jesse Gross ccb1352e76 net: Add Open vSwitch kernel components.
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.
