      cxgb4 : Update ipv6 address handling api · b5a02f50
      Anish Bhatt authored
      This patch improves on previously added support for ipv6 addresses. The code
      is consolidated to a single file and adds an api for use by dependent upper
      level drivers such as cxgb4i/iw_cxgb4 etc.

      ipv4: per cpu uncached list · 5055c371
      Eric Dumazet authored
      RAW sockets with hdrinc suffer from contention on rt_uncached_lock
      spinlock.
      
      One solution is to use percpu lists, since most routes are destroyed
      by the cpu that created them.
      
      It is unclear why we even have to put these routes in uncached_list,
      as all outgoing packets should be freed when a device is dismantled.

      ====================
      VXLAN Group Policy Extension
      
      Implements supports for the Group Policy VXLAN extension [0] to provide
      a lightweight and simple security label mechanism across network peers
      based on VXLAN. The security context and associated metadata is mapped
      to/from skb->mark. This allows further mapping to a SELinux context
      using SECMARK, to implement ACLs directly with nftables, iptables, OVS,
      tc, etc.
      
      The extension is disabled by default and should be run on a distinct
      port in mixed Linux VXLAN VTEP environments. Liberal VXLAN VTEPs
      which ignore unknown reserved bits will be able to receive VXLAN-GBP
      frames.
      
      Simple usage example:
      
      10.1.1.1:
         # ip link add vxlan0 type vxlan id 10 remote 10.1.1.2 gbp
         # iptables -I OUTPUT -m owner --uid-owner 101 -j MARK --set-mark 0x200
      
      10.1.1.2:
         # ip link add vxlan0 type vxlan id 10 remote 10.1.1.1 gbp
         # iptables -I INPUT -m mark --mark 0x200 -j DROP
      
      iproute2 [1] and OVS [2] support will be provided in separate patches.

      openvswitch: Support VXLAN Group Policy extension · 1dd144cf
      Thomas Graf authored
      Introduces support for the group policy extension to the VXLAN virtual
      port. The extension is disabled by default and only enabled if the user
      has provided the respective configuration.
      
        ovs-vsctl add-port br0 vxlan0 -- \
           set Interface vxlan0 type=vxlan options:exts=gbp
      
      The configuration interface to enable the extension is based on a new
      attribute OVS_VXLAN_EXT_GBP nested inside OVS_TUNNEL_ATTR_EXTENSION
      which can carry additional extensions as needed in the future.
      
      The group policy metadata is stored as binary blob (struct ovs_vxlan_opts)
      internally just like Geneve options but transported as nested Netlink
      attributes to user space.
      
      Renames the existing TUNNEL_OPTIONS_PRESENT to TUNNEL_GENEVE_OPT with the
      binary value kept intact, a new flag TUNNEL_VXLAN_OPT is introduced.
      
      The attributes OVS_TUNNEL_KEY_ATTR_VXLAN_OPTS and existing
      OVS_TUNNEL_KEY_ATTR_GENEVE_OPTS are implemented mutually exclusive.

      vxlan: Only bind to sockets with compatible flags enabled · ac5132d1
      Thomas Graf authored
      A VXLAN net_device looking for an appropriate socket may only consider
      a socket which has a matching set of flags/extensions enabled. If
      incompatible flags are enabled, return a conflict to have the caller
      create a distinct socket with distinct port.
      
      The OVS VXLAN port is kept unaware of extensions at this point.

      vxlan: Group Policy extension · 3511494c
      Thomas Graf authored
      Implements supports for the Group Policy VXLAN extension [0] to provide
      a lightweight and simple security label mechanism across network peers
      based on VXLAN. The security context and associated metadata is mapped
      to/from skb->mark. This allows further mapping to a SELinux context
      using SECMARK, to implement ACLs directly with nftables, iptables, OVS,
      tc, etc.
      
      The group membership is defined by the lower 16 bits of skb->mark, the
      upper 16 bits are used for flags.
      
      SELinux allows to manage label to secure local resources. However,
      distributed applications require ACLs to implemented across hosts. This
      is typically achieved by matching on L2-L4 fields to identify the
      original sending host and process on the receiver. On top of that,
      netlabel and specifically CIPSO [1] allow to map security contexts to
      universal labels.  However, netlabel and CIPSO are relatively complex.
      This patch provides a lightweight alternative for overlay network
      environments with a trusted underlay. No additional control protocol
      is required.
      
                 Host 1:                       Host 2:
      
            Group A        Group B        Group B     Group A

      	      +------------------------------+
      
      Backwards compatibility:
      A VXLAN-GBP socket can receive standard VXLAN frames and will assign
      the default group 0x0000 to such frames. A Linux VXLAN socket will
      drop VXLAN-GBP  frames. The extension is therefore disabled by default
      and needs to be specifically enabled:
      
         ip link add [...] type vxlan [...] gbp
      
      In a mixed environment with VXLAN and VXLAN-GBP sockets, the GBP socket
      must run on a separate port number.
      
      Examples:
       iptables:
        host1# iptables -I OUTPUT -m owner --uid-owner 101 -j MARK --set-mark 0x200
        host2# iptables -I INPUT -m mark --mark 0x200 -j DROP
      
       OVS:
        # ovs-ofctl add-flow br0 'in_port=1,actions=load:0x200->NXM_NX_TUN_GBP_ID[],NORMAL'
        # ovs-ofctl add-flow br0 'in_port=2,tun_gbp_id=0x200,actions=drop'
