Subject: [net-next-2.6 PATCH 1/2] Add netdev port-profile support (take III,
was iovnl)
From: Scott Feldman <scofeldm@...co.com>
Add new netdev ops ndo_{set|get}_port_profile to allow setting of port-profile
on a netdev interface. Extends RTM_SETLINK/RTM_GETLINK with new sub cmd called
IFLA_PORT_PROFILE (added to end of IFLA_cmd list). The port-profile cmd
arguments are (as seen from modified iproute2 cmdline):
ip link set DEVICE [ { up | down } ]
[ arp { on | off } ]
[ dynamic { on | off } ]
[ multicast { on | off } ]
...
[ vf NUM [ mac LLADDR ]
[ vlan VLANID [ qos VLAN-QOS ] ]
[ rate TXRATE ] ]
[ port_profile [ PORT-PROFILE
[ mac LLADDR ]
[ host_uuid HOST_UUID ]
[ client_uuid CLIENT_UUID ]
[ client_name CLIENT_NAME ] ] ]
ip link show [ DEVICE ]
A port-profile is used to configure/enable the switch port backing the netdev
interface, not to configure the host-facing side of the netdev. A port-
profile is an identifier known to the switch. How port-profiles are installed
on the switch or how available port-profiles is made know to the host is
outside the scope of this patch.
The general flow is the port-profile is applied to a host netdev interface
using RTM_SETLINK, the receiver of the RTM_SETLINK msg (more about that later)
communicates with the switch, and the switch port backing the host netdev
interface is configured/enabled based on the settings defined by the port-
profile. What those settings comprise, and how those settings are managed is
again outside the scope of this patch, since this patch only deals with the
first step in the flow.
Since we're using netlink sockets, the receiver of the RTM_SETLINK msg can
be in kernel- or user-space. For kernel-space recipient, rtnetlink.c, the
new ndo_set_port_profile netdev op is called to set the port-profile.
User-space recipients can decide how they propagate the msg to the switch.
There is also a RTM_GETLINK cmd to to return port-profile setting of an
interface and to also return the status of the last port-profile.
