License cleanup: add SPDX license identifier to uapi header files with a license Many user space API headers have licensing information, which is either incomplete, badly formatted or just a shorthand for referring to the license under which the file is supposed to be. This makes it hard for compliance tools to determine the correct license. Update these files with an SPDX license identifier. The identifier was chosen based on the license information in the file. GPL/LGPL licensed headers get the matching GPL/LGPL SPDX license identifier with the added 'WITH Linux-syscall-note' exception, which is the officially assigned exception identifier for the kernel syscall exception: NOTE! This copyright does *not* cover user programs that use kernel services by normal system calls - this is merely considered normal use of the kernel, and does *not* fall under the heading of "derived work". This exception makes it possible to include GPL headers into non GPL code, without confusing license compliance tools. Headers which have either explicit dual licensing or are just licensed under a non GPL license are updated with the corresponding SPDX identifier and the GPLv2 with syscall exception identifier. The format is: ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR SPDX-ID-OF-OTHER-LICENSE) SPDX license identifiers are a legally binding shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text. The update does not remove existing license information as this has to be done on a case by case basis and the copyright holders might have to be consulted. This will happen in a separate step. This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart and Philippe Ombredanne. See the previous patch in this series for the methodology of how this patch was researched.

openvswitch: Add original direction conntrack tuple to sw_flow_key. Add the fields of the conntrack original direction 5-tuple to struct sw_flow_key. The new fields are initially marked as non-existent, and are populated whenever a conntrack action is executed and either finds or generates a conntrack entry. This means that these fields exist for all packets that were not rejected by conntrack as untrackable. The original tuple fields in the sw_flow_key are filled from the original direction tuple of the conntrack entry relating to the current packet, or from the original direction tuple of the master conntrack entry, if the current conntrack entry has a master. Generally, expected connections of connections having an assigned helper (e.g., FTP), have a master conntrack entry. The main purpose of the new conntrack original tuple fields is to allow matching on them for policy decision purposes, with the premise that the admissibility of tracked connections reply packets (as well as original direction packets), and both direction packets of any related connections may be based on ACL rules applying to the master connection's original direction 5-tuple. This also makes it easier to make policy decisions when the actual packet headers might have been transformed by NAT, as the original direction 5-tuple represents the packet headers before any such transformation. When using the original direction 5-tuple the admissibility of return and/or related packets need not be based on the mere existence of a conntrack entry, allowing separation of admission policy from the established conntrack state. While existence of a conntrack entry is required for admission of the return or related packets, policy changes can render connections that were initially admitted to be rejected or dropped afterwards. If the admission of the return and related packets was based on mere conntrack state (e.g., connection being in an established state), a policy change that would make the connection rejected or dropped would need to find and delete all conntrack entries affected by such a change. When using the original direction 5-tuple matching the affected conntrack entries can be allowed to time out instead, as the established state of the connection would not need to be the basis for packet admission any more. It should be noted that the directionality of related connections may be the same or different than that of the master connection, and neither the original direction 5-tuple nor the conntrack state bits carry this information. If needed, the directionality of the master connection can be stored in master's conntrack mark or labels, which are automatically inherited by the expected related connections. The fact that neither ARP nor ND packets are trackable by conntrack allows mutual exclusion between ARP/ND and the new conntrack original tuple fields. Hence, the IP addresses are overlaid in union with ARP and ND fields. This allows the sw_flow_key to not grow much due to this patch, but it also means that we must be careful to never use the new key fields with ARP or ND packets. ARP is easy to distinguish and keep mutually exclusive based on the ethernet type, but ND being an ICMPv6 protocol requires a bit more attention.

openvswitch: Introduce per-cpu upcall dispatch The Open vSwitch kernel module uses the upcall mechanism to send packets from kernel space to user space when it misses in the kernel space flow table. The upcall sends packets via a Netlink socket. Currently, a Netlink socket is created for every vport. In this way, there is a 1:1 mapping between a vport and a Netlink socket. When a packet is received by a vport, if it needs to be sent to user space, it is sent via the corresponding Netlink socket. This mechanism, with various iterations of the corresponding user space code, has seen some limitations and issues: * On systems with a large number of vports, there is a correspondingly large number of Netlink sockets which can limit scaling. (https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1526306) * Packet reordering on upcalls. (https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1844576) * A thundering herd issue. (https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1834444) This patch introduces an alternative, feature-negotiated, upcall mode using a per-cpu dispatch rather than a per-vport dispatch. In this mode, the Netlink socket to be used for the upcall is selected based on the CPU of the thread that is executing the upcall. In this way, it resolves the issues above as: a) The number of Netlink sockets scales with the number of CPUs rather than the number of vports. b) Ordering per-flow is maintained as packets are distributed to CPUs based on mechanisms such as RSS and flows are distributed to a single user space thread. c) Packets from a flow can only wake up one user space thread.

openvswitch: Add conntrack action Expose the kernel connection tracker via OVS. Userspace components can make use of the CT action to populate the connection state (ct_state) field for a flow. This state can be subsequently matched. Exposed connection states are OVS_CS_F_*: - NEW (0x01) - Beginning of a new connection. - ESTABLISHED (0x02) - Part of an existing connection. - RELATED (0x04) - Related to an established connection. - INVALID (0x20) - Could not track the connection for this packet. - REPLY_DIR (0x40) - This packet is in the reply direction for the flow. - TRACKED (0x80) - This packet has been sent through conntrack. When the CT action is executed by itself, it will send the packet through the connection tracker and populate the ct_state field with one or more of the connection state flags above. The CT action will always set the TRACKED bit. When the COMMIT flag is passed to the conntrack action, this specifies that information about the connection should be stored. This allows subsequent packets for the same (or related) connections to be correlated with this connection. Sending subsequent packets for the connection through conntrack allows the connection tracker to consider the packets as ESTABLISHED, RELATED, and/or REPLY_DIR. The CT action may optionally take a zone to track the flow within. This allows connections with the same 5-tuple to be kept logically separate from connections in other zones. If the zone is specified, then the "ct_zone" match field will be subsequently populated with the zone id. IP fragments are handled by transparently assembling them as part of the CT action. The maximum received unit (MRU) size is tracked so that refragmentation can occur during output. IP frag handling contributed by Andy Zhou. Based on original design by Justin Pettit.

net: openvswitch: fix uAPI incompatibility with existing user space Few years ago OVS user space made a strange choice in the commit [1] to define types only valid for the user space inside the copy of a kernel uAPI header. '#ifndef __KERNEL__' and another attribute was added later. This leads to the inevitable clash between user space and kernel types when the kernel uAPI is extended. The issue was unveiled with the addition of a new type for IPv6 extension header in kernel uAPI. When kernel provides the OVS_KEY_ATTR_IPV6_EXTHDRS attribute to the older user space application, application tries to parse it as OVS_KEY_ATTR_PACKET_TYPE and discards the whole netlink message as malformed. Since OVS_KEY_ATTR_IPV6_EXTHDRS is supplied along with every IPv6 packet that goes to the user space, IPv6 support is fully broken. Fixing that by bringing these user space attributes to the kernel uAPI to avoid the clash. Strictly speaking this is not the problem of the kernel uAPI, but changing it is the only way to avoid breakage of the older user space applications at this point. These 2 types are explicitly rejected now since they should not be passed to the kernel. Additionally, OVS_KEY_ATTR_TUNNEL_INFO moved out from the '#ifdef __KERNEL__' as there is no good reason to hide it from the userspace. And it's also explicitly rejected now, because it's for in-kernel use only. Comments with warnings were added to avoid the problem coming back. (1 << type) converted to (1ULL << type) to avoid integer overflow on OVS_KEY_ATTR_IPV6_EXTHDRS, since it equals 32 now.

openvswitch: Add conntrack action Expose the kernel connection tracker via OVS. Userspace components can make use of the CT action to populate the connection state (ct_state) field for a flow. This state can be subsequently matched. Exposed connection states are OVS_CS_F_*: - NEW (0x01) - Beginning of a new connection. - ESTABLISHED (0x02) - Part of an existing connection. - RELATED (0x04) - Related to an established connection. - INVALID (0x20) - Could not track the connection for this packet. - REPLY_DIR (0x40) - This packet is in the reply direction for the flow. - TRACKED (0x80) - This packet has been sent through conntrack. When the CT action is executed by itself, it will send the packet through the connection tracker and populate the ct_state field with one or more of the connection state flags above. The CT action will always set the TRACKED bit. When the COMMIT flag is passed to the conntrack action, this specifies that information about the connection should be stored. This allows subsequent packets for the same (or related) connections to be correlated with this connection. Sending subsequent packets for the connection through conntrack allows the connection tracker to consider the packets as ESTABLISHED, RELATED, and/or REPLY_DIR. The CT action may optionally take a zone to track the flow within. This allows connections with the same 5-tuple to be kept logically separate from connections in other zones. If the zone is specified, then the "ct_zone" match field will be subsequently populated with the zone id. IP fragments are handled by transparently assembling them as part of the CT action. The maximum received unit (MRU) size is tracked so that refragmentation can occur during output. IP frag handling contributed by Andy Zhou. Based on original design by Justin Pettit.

openvswitch: Add original direction conntrack tuple to sw_flow_key. Add the fields of the conntrack original direction 5-tuple to struct sw_flow_key. The new fields are initially marked as non-existent, and are populated whenever a conntrack action is executed and either finds or generates a conntrack entry. This means that these fields exist for all packets that were not rejected by conntrack as untrackable. The original tuple fields in the sw_flow_key are filled from the original direction tuple of the conntrack entry relating to the current packet, or from the original direction tuple of the master conntrack entry, if the current conntrack entry has a master. Generally, expected connections of connections having an assigned helper (e.g., FTP), have a master conntrack entry. The main purpose of the new conntrack original tuple fields is to allow matching on them for policy decision purposes, with the premise that the admissibility of tracked connections reply packets (as well as original direction packets), and both direction packets of any related connections may be based on ACL rules applying to the master connection's original direction 5-tuple. This also makes it easier to make policy decisions when the actual packet headers might have been transformed by NAT, as the original direction 5-tuple represents the packet headers before any such transformation. When using the original direction 5-tuple the admissibility of return and/or related packets need not be based on the mere existence of a conntrack entry, allowing separation of admission policy from the established conntrack state. While existence of a conntrack entry is required for admission of the return or related packets, policy changes can render connections that were initially admitted to be rejected or dropped afterwards. If the admission of the return and related packets was based on mere conntrack state (e.g., connection being in an established state), a policy change that would make the connection rejected or dropped would need to find and delete all conntrack entries affected by such a change. When using the original direction 5-tuple matching the affected conntrack entries can be allowed to time out instead, as the established state of the connection would not need to be the basis for packet admission any more. It should be noted that the directionality of related connections may be the same or different than that of the master connection, and neither the original direction 5-tuple nor the conntrack state bits carry this information. If needed, the directionality of the master connection can be stored in master's conntrack mark or labels, which are automatically inherited by the expected related connections. The fact that neither ARP nor ND packets are trackable by conntrack allows mutual exclusion between ARP/ND and the new conntrack original tuple fields. Hence, the IP addresses are overlaid in union with ARP and ND fields. This allows the sw_flow_key to not grow much due to this patch, but it also means that we must be careful to never use the new key fields with ARP or ND packets. ARP is easy to distinguish and keep mutually exclusive based on the ethernet type, but ND being an ICMPv6 protocol requires a bit more attention.

openvswitch: Optimize sample action for the clone use cases With the introduction of open flow 'clone' action, the OVS user space can now translate the 'clone' action into kernel datapath 'sample' action, with 100% probability, to ensure that the clone semantics, which is that the packet seen by the clone action is the same as the packet seen by the action after clone, is faithfully carried out in the datapath. While the sample action in the datpath has the matching semantics, its implementation is only optimized for its original use. Specifically, there are two limitation: First, there is a 3 level of nesting restriction, enforced at the flow downloading time. This limit turns out to be too restrictive for the 'clone' use case. Second, the implementation avoid recursive call only if the sample action list has a single userspace action. The main optimization implemented in this series removes the static nesting limit check, instead, implement the run time recursion limit check, and recursion avoidance similar to that of the 'recirc' action. This optimization solve both #1 and #2 issues above. One related optimization attempts to avoid copying flow key as long as the actions enclosed does not change the flow key. The detection is performed only once at the flow downloading time. Another related optimization is to rewrite the action list at flow downloading time in order to save the fast path from parsing the sample action list in its original form repeatedly.

net: openvswitch: Add a new action check_pkt_len This patch adds a new action - 'check_pkt_len' which checks the packet length and executes a set of actions if the packet length is greater than the specified length or executes another set of actions if the packet length is lesser or equal to. This action takes below nlattrs * OVS_CHECK_PKT_LEN_ATTR_PKT_LEN - 'pkt_len' to check for * OVS_CHECK_PKT_LEN_ATTR_ACTIONS_IF_GREATER - Nested actions to apply if the packet length is greater than the specified 'pkt_len' * OVS_CHECK_PKT_LEN_ATTR_ACTIONS_IF_LESS_EQUAL - Nested actions to apply if the packet length is lesser or equal to the specified 'pkt_len'. The main use case for adding this action is to solve the packet drops because of MTU mismatch in OVN virtual networking solution. When a VM (which belongs to a logical switch of OVN) sends a packet destined to go via the gateway router and if the nic which provides external connectivity, has a lesser MTU, OVS drops the packet if the packet length is greater than this MTU. With the help of this action, OVN will check the packet length and if it is greater than the MTU size, it will generate an ICMP packet (type 3, code 4) and includes the next hop mtu in it so that the sender can fragment the packets.

openvswitch: enable NSH support v16->17 - Fixed disputed check code: keep them in nsh_push and nsh_pop but also add them in __ovs_nla_copy_actions v15->v16 - Add csum recalculation for nsh_push, nsh_pop and set_nsh pointed out by Pravin - Move nsh key into the union with ipv4 and ipv6 and add check for nsh key in match_validate pointed out by Pravin - Add nsh check in validate_set and __ovs_nla_copy_actions v14->v15 - Check size in nsh_hdr_from_nlattr - Fixed four small issues pointed out By Jiri and Eric v13->v14 - Rename skb_push_nsh to nsh_push per Dave's comment - Rename skb_pop_nsh to nsh_pop per Dave's comment v12->v13 - Fix NSH header length check in set_nsh v11->v12 - Fix missing changes old comments pointed out - Fix new comments for v11 v10->v11 - Fix the left three disputable comments for v9 but not fixed in v10. v9->v10 - Change struct ovs_key_nsh to struct ovs_nsh_key_base base; __be32 context[NSH_MD1_CONTEXT_SIZE]; - Fix new comments for v9 v8->v9 - Fix build error reported by daily intel build because nsh module isn't selected by openvswitch v7->v8 - Rework nested value and mask for OVS_KEY_ATTR_NSH - Change pop_nsh to adapt to nsh kernel module - Fix many issues per comments from Jiri Benc v6->v7 - Remove NSH GSO patches in v6 because Jiri Benc reworked it as another patch series and they have been merged. - Change it to adapt to nsh kernel module added by NSH GSO patch series v5->v6 - Fix the rest comments for v4. - Add NSH GSO support for VxLAN-gpe + NSH and Eth + NSH. v4->v5 - Fix many comments by Jiri Benc and Eric Garver for v4. v3->v4 - Add new NSH match field ttl - Update NSH header to the latest format which will be final format and won't change per its author's confirmation. - Fix comments for v3. v2->v3 - Change OVS_KEY_ATTR_NSH to nested key to handle length-fixed attributes and length-variable attriubte more flexibly. - Remove struct ovs_action_push_nsh completely - Add code to handle nested attribute for SET_MASKED - Change PUSH_NSH to use the nested OVS_KEY_ATTR_NSH to transfer NSH header data. - Fix comments and coding style issues by Jiri and Eric v1->v2 - Change encap_nsh and decap_nsh to push_nsh and pop_nsh - Dynamically allocate struct ovs_action_push_nsh for length-variable metadata. OVS master and 2.8 branch has merged NSH userspace patch series, this patch is to enable NSH support in kernel data path in order that OVS can support NSH in compat mode by porting this.

net: openvswitch: Add a new action check_pkt_len This patch adds a new action - 'check_pkt_len' which checks the packet length and executes a set of actions if the packet length is greater than the specified length or executes another set of actions if the packet length is lesser or equal to. This action takes below nlattrs * OVS_CHECK_PKT_LEN_ATTR_PKT_LEN - 'pkt_len' to check for * OVS_CHECK_PKT_LEN_ATTR_ACTIONS_IF_GREATER - Nested actions to apply if the packet length is greater than the specified 'pkt_len' * OVS_CHECK_PKT_LEN_ATTR_ACTIONS_IF_LESS_EQUAL - Nested actions to apply if the packet length is lesser or equal to the specified 'pkt_len'. The main use case for adding this action is to solve the packet drops because of MTU mismatch in OVN virtual networking solution. When a VM (which belongs to a logical switch of OVN) sends a packet destined to go via the gateway router and if the nic which provides external connectivity, has a lesser MTU, OVS drops the packet if the packet length is greater than this MTU. With the help of this action, OVN will check the packet length and if it is greater than the MTU size, it will generate an ICMP packet (type 3, code 4) and includes the next hop mtu in it so that the sender can fragment the packets.
