New nested netlink attribute to associate tunnel info per vlan.
This is used by bridge driver to send tunnel metadata to
bridge ports in vlan tunnel mode. This patch also adds new per
port flag IFLA_BRPORT_VLAN_TUNNEL to enable vlan tunnel mode.
off by default.
One example use for this is a vxlan bridging gateway or vtep
which maps vlans to vn-segments (or vnis). User can configure
per-vlan tunnel information which the bridge driver can use
to bridge vlan into the corresponding vn-segment.

Vxlan COLLECT_METADATA mode today solves the per-vni netdev
scalability problem in l3 networks. It expects all forwarding
information to be present in dst_metadata. This patch series
enhances collect metadata mode to include the case where only
vni is present in dst_metadata, and the vxlan driver can then use
the rest of the forwarding information datbase to make forwarding
decisions. There is no change to default COLLECT_METADATA
behaviour. These changes only apply to COLLECT_METADATA when
used with the bridging use-case with a special dst_metadata
tunnel info flag (eg: where vxlan device is part of a bridge).
For all this to work, the vxlan driver will need to now support a
single fdb table hashed by mac + vni. This series essentially makes
this happen.
use-case and workflow:
vxlan collect metadata device participates in bridging vlan
to vn-segments. Bridge driver above the vxlan device,
sends the vni corresponding to the vlan in the dst_metadata.
vxlan driver will lookup forwarding database with (mac + vni)
for the required remote destination information to forward the
packet.
Changes introduced by this patch:
- allow learning and forwarding database state in vxlan netdev in
COLLECT_METADATA mode. Current behaviour is not changed
by default. tunnel info flag IP_TUNNEL_INFO_BRIDGE is used
to support the new bridge friendly mode.
- A single fdb table hashed by (mac, vni) to allow fdb entries with
multiple vnis in the same fdb table
- rx path already has the vni
- tx path expects a vni in the packet with dst_metadata
- prior to this series, fdb remote_dsts carried remote vni and
the vxlan device carrying the fdb table represented the
source vni. With the vxlan device now representing multiple vnis,
this patch adds a src vni attribute to the fdb entry. The remote
vni already uses NDA_VNI attribute. This patch introduces
NDA_SRC_VNI netlink attribute to represent the src vni in a multi
vni fdb table.
iproute2 example (patched and pruned iproute2 output to just show
relevant fdb entries):
example shows same host mac learnt on two vni's.
before (netdev per vni):
$bridge fdb show | grep "00:02:00:00:00:03"
00:02:00:00:00:03 dev vxlan1001 dst 12.0.0.8 self
00:02:00:00:00:03 dev vxlan1000 dst 12.0.0.8 self
after this patch with collect metadata in bridged mode (single netdev):
$bridge fdb show | grep "00:02:00:00:00:03"
00:02:00:00:00:03 dev vxlan0 src_vni 1001 dst 12.0.0.8 self
00:02:00:00:00:03 dev vxlan0 src_vni 1000 dst 12.0.0.8 self

Use the encode/decode functionality from the ife module instead of using
implementation inside the act_ife.

This module is responsible for the ife encapsulation protocol
encode/decode logics. That module can:
- ife_encode: encode skb and reserve space for the ife meta header
- ife_decode: decode skb and extract the meta header size
- ife_tlv_meta_encode - encodes one tlv entry into the reserved ife
header space.
- ife_tlv_meta_decode - decodes one tlv entry from the packet
- ife_tlv_meta_next - advance to the next tlv

Debugging issues caused by pfmemalloc is often tedious.
Add a new SNMP counter to more easily diagnose these problems.

This ioctl opens a file to which a socket is bound and
returns a file descriptor. The caller has to have CAP_NET_ADMIN
in the socket network namespace.
Currently it is impossible to get a path and a mount point
for a socket file. socket_diag reports address, device ID and inode
number for unix sockets. An address can contain a relative path or
a file may be moved somewhere. And these properties say nothing about
a mount namespace and a mount point of a socket file.
With the introduced ioctl, we can get a path by reading
/proc/self/fd/X and get mnt_id from /proc/self/fdinfo/X.
In CRIU we are going to use this ioctl to dump and restore unix socket.
Here is an example how it can be used:
$ strace -e socket,bind,ioctl ./test /tmp/test_sock
socket(AF_UNIX, SOCK_STREAM, 0) = 3
bind(3, {sa_family=AF_UNIX, sun_path="test_sock"}, 11) = 0
ioctl(3, SIOCUNIXFILE, 0) = 4
^Z
$ ss -a | grep test_sock
u_str LISTEN 0 1 test_sock 17798 * 0
$ ls -l /proc/760/fd/{3,4}
lrwx------ 1 root root 64 Feb 1 09:41 3 -> 'socket:[17798]'
l--------- 1 root root 64 Feb 1 09:41 4 -> /tmp/test_sock
$ cat /proc/760/fdinfo/4
pos: 0
flags: 012000000
mnt_id: 40
$ cat /proc/self/mountinfo | grep "^40\s"
40 19 0:37 / /tmp rw shared:23 - tmpfs tmpfs rw
