* openvswitch: Return vport module ref before destructionThomas Graf2015-03-311-3/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Return module reference before invoking the respective vport ->destroy() function. This is needed as ovs_vport_del() is not invoked inside an RCU read side critical section so the kfree can occur immediately before returning to ovs_vport_del(). Returning the module reference before ->destroy() is safe because the module unregistration is blocked on ovs_lock which we hold while destroying the datapath.

* openvswitch: Consistently include VLAN header in flow and port stats.Ben Pfaff2015-01-021-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Until now, when VLAN acceleration was in use, the bytes of the VLAN header were not included in port or flow byte counters. They were however included when VLAN acceleration was not used. This commit corrects the inconsistency, by always including the VLAN header in byte counters.

* openvswitch: Fix vport_send double freePravin B Shelar2014-12-231-3/+2
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | Today vport-send has complex error handling because it involves freeing skb and updating stats depending on return value from vport send implementation. This can be simplified by delegating responsibility of freeing skb to the vport implementation for all cases. So that vport-send needs just update stats.

* openvswitch: Extend packet attribute for egress tunnel infoWenyu Zhang2014-11-091-0/+61
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | OVS vswitch has extended IPFIX exporter to export tunnel headers to improve network visibility. 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.

* openvswitch: Wrap struct ovs_key_ipv4_tunnel in a new structure.Jesse Gross2014-10-061-3/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | 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.

* net: Explicitly initialize u64_stats_sync structures for lockdepJohn Stultz2013-11-061-0/+8
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In order to enable lockdep on seqcount/seqlock structures, we must explicitly initialize any locks. The u64_stats_sync structure, uses a seqcount, and thus we need to introduce a u64_stats_init() function and use it to initialize the structure. This unfortunately adds a lot of fairly trivial initialization code to a number of drivers. But the benefit of ensuring correctness makes this worth while. Because these changes are required for lockdep to be enabled, and the changes are quite trivial, I've not yet split this patch out into 30-some separate patches, as I figured it would be better to get the various maintainers thoughts on how to best merge this change along with the seqcount lockdep enablement.

I'm not quite sure. Not only they don't really need it, it also prevents the iterator from looking exactly like the list iterator, which is unfortunate. Besides the semantic patch, there was some manual work required: - Fix up the actual hlist iterators in linux/list.h - Fix up the declaration of other iterators based on the hlist ones. - A very small amount of places were using the 'node' parameter, this was modified to use 'obj->member' instead. - Coccinelle didn't handle the hlist_for_each_entry_safe iterator properly, so those had to be fixed up manually.

* openvswitch: Add support for network namespaces.Pravin B Shelar2012-08-221-8/+14
| | | | | | | | | | Following patch adds support for network namespace to openvswitch. Since it must release devices when namespaces are destroyed, a side effect of this patch is that the module no longer keeps a refcount but instead cleans up any state when it is unloaded.

* net: Add Open vSwitch kernel components.Jesse Gross2011-12-031-0/+396
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>
