# # LAPB Data Link Drive # config LAPB tristate "LAPB Data Link Driver" ---help--- Link Access Procedure, Balanced (LAPB) is the data link layer (i.e. the lower) part of the X.25 protocol. It offers a reliable connection service to exchange data frames with one other host, and it is used to transport higher level protocols (mostly X.25 Packet Layer, the higher part of X.25, but others are possible as well). Usually, LAPB is used with specialized X.21 network cards, but Linux currently supports LAPB only over Ethernet connections. If you want to use LAPB connections over Ethernet, say Y here and to "LAPB over Ethernet driver" below. Read for technical details. To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the module will be called lapb. If unsure, say N. ut type='hidden' name='id' value='62d1086e87223260fcdc49c232d5c2e26ff05721'/> net-next plumbingsTobias Klauser

2017-02-03bridge: vlan dst_metadata hooks in ingress and egress pathsRoopa Prabhu1-0/+7
- ingress hook: - if port is a tunnel port, use tunnel info in attached dst_metadata to map it to a local vlan - egress hook: - if port is a tunnel port, use tunnel info attached to vlan to set dst_metadata on the skb CC: Nikolay Aleksandrov <nikolay@cumulusnetworks.com> Signed-off-by: Roopa Prabhu <roopa@cumulusnetworks.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

2017-02-03bridge: per vlan dst_metadata netlink supportRoopa Prabhu1-1/+16
This patch adds support to attach per vlan tunnel info dst metadata. This enables bridge driver to map vlan to tunnel_info at ingress and egress. It uses the kernel dst_metadata infrastructure. The initial use case is vlan to vni bridging, but the api is generic to extend to any tunnel_info in the future: - Uapi to configure/unconfigure/dump per vlan tunnel data - netlink functions to configure vlan and tunnel_info mapping - Introduces bridge port flag BR_LWT_VLAN to enable attach/detach dst_metadata to bridged packets on ports. off by default. - changes to existing code is mainly refactor some existing vlan handling netlink code + hooks for new vlan tunnel code - I have kept the vlan tunnel code isolated in separate files. - most of the netlink vlan tunnel code is handling of vlan-tunid ranges (follows the vlan range handling code). To conserve space vlan-tunid by default are always dumped in ranges if applicable. Use case: example use for this is a vxlan bridging gateway or vtep which maps vlans to vn-segments (or vnis). iproute2 example (patched and pruned iproute2 output to just show relevant fdb entries): example shows same host mac learnt on two vni's and vlan 100 maps to vni 1000, vlan 101 maps to vni 1001 before (netdev per vni): $bridge fdb show | grep "00:02:00:00:00:03" 00:02:00:00:00:03 dev vxlan1001 vlan 101 master bridge 00:02:00:00:00:03 dev vxlan1001 dst 12.0.0.8 self 00:02:00:00:00:03 dev vxlan1000 vlan 100 master bridge 00:02:00:00:00:03 dev vxlan1000 dst 12.0.0.8 self after this patch with collect metdata in bridged mode (single netdev): $bridge fdb show | grep "00:02:00:00:00:03" 00:02:00:00:00:03 dev vxlan0 vlan 101 master bridge 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 vlan 100 master bridge 00:02:00:00:00:03 dev vxlan0 src_vni 1000 dst 12.0.0.8 self CC: Nikolay Aleksandrov <nikolay@cumulusnetworks.com> Signed-off-by: Roopa Prabhu <roopa@cumulusnetworks.com> Signed-off-by: David S.
