* openvswitch: avoid resetting flow key while installing new flow.pravin shelar2016-09-201-4/+4
| | | | | | | | | | since commit commit db74a3335e0f6 ("openvswitch: use percpu flow stats") flow alloc resets flow-key. So there is no need to reset the flow-key again if OVS is using newly allocated flow-key. Signed-off-by: Pravin B Shelar <pshelar@ovn.org> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

* openvswitch: Add packet len info to upcall.William Tu2016-06-221-1/+12
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The commit f2a4d086ed4c ("openvswitch: Add packet truncation support.") introduces packet truncation before sending to userspace upcall receiver. This patch passes up the skb->len before truncation so that the upcall receiver knows the original packet size. Potentially this will be used by sFlow, where OVS translates sFlow config header=N to a sample action, truncating packet to N byte in kernel datapath. Thus, only N bytes instead of full-packet size is copied from kernel to userspace, saving the kernel-to-userspace bandwidth.

* openvswitch: Add packet truncation support.William Tu2016-06-101-12/+17
| | | | | | | | | | | | | The patch adds a new OVS action, OVS_ACTION_ATTR_TRUNC, in order to truncate packets. A 'max_len' is added for setting up the maximum packet size, and a 'cutlen' field is to record the number of bytes to trim the packet when the packet is outputting to a port, or when the packet is sent to userspace.

* ovs: allow nl 'flow set' to use ufid without flow keySamuel Gauthier2016-03-131-11/+17
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | When we want to change a flow using netlink, we have to identify it to be able to perform a lookup. Both the flow key and unique flow ID (ufid) are valid identifiers, but we always have to specify the flow key in the netlink message. When both attributes are there, the ufid is used. The flow key is used to validate the actions provided by the userland. This commit allows to use the ufid without having to provide the flow key, as it is already done in the netlink 'flow get' and 'flow del' path. The flow key remains mandatory when an action is provided.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Operations with the GENL_ADMIN_PERM flag fail permissions checks because this flag means we call netlink_capable, which uses the init user ns. Instead, let's introduce a new flag, GENL_UNS_ADMIN_PERM for operations which should be allowed inside a user namespace. The motivation for this is to be able to run openvswitch in unprivileged containers. I've tested this and it seems to work, but I really have no idea about the security consequences of this patch, so thoughts would be much appreciated. v2: use the GENL_UNS_ADMIN_PERM flag instead of a check in each function v3: use separate ifs for UNS_ADMIN_PERM and ADMIN_PERM, instead of one massive one Reported-by: James Page <james.page@canonical.com> Signed-off-by: Tycho Andersen <tycho.andersen@canonical.com> CC: Eric Biederman <ebiederm@xmission.com> CC: Pravin Shelar <pshelar@ovn.org> CC: Justin Pettit <jpettit@nicira.com> CC: "David S.

Since masking is an expensive operation, OVS also had an optimization that would only take the parts of the flow keys that were covered by a non-zero mask. The values stored in the remaining pieces should not matter because they are masked out. While this works fine for the purposes of matching (which must always look at the mask), serialization to netlink can be problematic. Since the flow and the mask are serialized separately, the uninitialized portions of the flow can be encoded with whatever values happen to be present. In terms of functionality, this has little effect since these fields will be masked out by definition. However, it leaks kernel memory to userspace, which is a potential security vulnerability. It is also possible that other code paths could look at the masked key and get uninitialized data, although this does not currently appear to be an issue in practice. This removes the mask optimization for flows that are being installed. This was always intended to be the case as the mask optimizations were really targetting per-packet flow operations.

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 support for unique flow IDs.Joe Stringer2015-01-261-50/+157
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Previously, flows were manipulated by userspace specifying a full, unmasked flow key. This adds significant burden onto flow serialization/deserialization, particularly when dumping flows. This patch adds an alternative way to refer to flows using a variable-length "unique flow identifier" (UFID). At flow setup time, userspace may specify a UFID for a flow, which is stored with the flow and inserted into a separate table for lookup, in addition to the standard flow table. Flows created using a UFID must be fetched or deleted using the UFID. All flow dump operations may now be made more terse with OVS_UFID_F_* flags. For example, the OVS_UFID_F_OMIT_KEY flag allows responses to omit the flow key from a datapath operation if the flow has a corresponding UFID. This significantly reduces the time spent assembling and transacting netlink messages. With all OVS_UFID_F_OMIT_* flags enabled, the datapath only returns the UFID and statistics for each flow during flow dump, increasing ovs-vswitchd revalidator performance by 40% or more.

* netlink: make nlmsg_end() and genlmsg_end() voidJohannes Berg2015-01-181-3/+6
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Contrary to common expectations for an "int" return, these functions return only a positive value -- if used correctly they cannot even return 0 because the message header will necessarily be in the skb. This makes the very common pattern of if (genlmsg_end(...) < 0) { ... } be a whole bunch of dead code. Many places also simply do return nlmsg_end(...); and the caller is expected to deal with it. This also commonly (at least for me) causes errors, because it is very common to write if (my_function(...)) /* error condition */ and if my_function() does "return nlmsg_end()" this is of course wrong. Additionally, there's not a single place in the kernel that actually needs the message length returned, and if anyone needs it later then it'll be very easy to just use skb->len there. Remove this, and make the functions void. This removes a bunch of dead code as described above. The patch adds lines because I did - return nlmsg_end(...); + nlmsg_end(...); + return 0; I could have preserved all the function's return values by returning skb->len, but instead I've audited all the places calling the affected functions and found that none cared. A few places actually compared the return value with <= 0 in dump functionality, but that could just be changed to < 0 with no change in behaviour, so I opted for the more efficient version. One instance of the error I've made numerous times now is also present in net/phonet/pn_netlink.c in the route_dumpit() function - it didn't check for <0 or <=0 and thus broke out of the loop every single time. I've preserved this since it will (I think) have caused the messages to userspace to be formatted differently with just a single message for every SKB returned to userspace. It's possible that this isn't needed for the tools that actually use this, but I don't even know what they are so couldn't test that changing this behaviour would be acceptable.

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | User space is currently sending a OVS_FLOW_ATTR_PROBE for both flow and packet messages. This leads to an out-of-bounds access in ovs_packet_cmd_execute() because OVS_FLOW_ATTR_PROBE > OVS_PACKET_ATTR_MAX. Introduce a new OVS_PACKET_ATTR_PROBE with the same numeric value as OVS_FLOW_ATTR_PROBE to grow the range of accepted packet attributes while maintaining to be binary compatible with existing OVS binaries. Fixes: 05da589 ("openvswitch: Add support for OVS_FLOW_ATTR_PROBE.")

| | | | | | | | | | | There's no point to force the caller to know about the internal genl_sock to use inside struct net, just have them pass the network namespace. This doesn't really change code generation since it's an inline, but makes the caller less magic - there's never any reason to pass another socket.

To export this information userspace needs to know egress tunnel for given packet. By extending packet attributes datapath can export egress tunnel info for given packet. So that userspace can ask for egress tunnel info in userspace action. This information is used to build IPFIX data for given flow.
