Subject: [bpf-next v3 0/9] bpf: Add helper to do FIB lookups
Provide a helper for doing a FIB and neighbor lookup in the kernel
tables from an XDP program. The helper provides a fastpath for forwarding
packets. If the packet is a local delivery or for any reason is not a
simple lookup and forward, the packet is expected to continue up the stack
for full processing.
The response from a FIB and neighbor lookup is either the egress index
with the bpf_fib_lookup struct filled in with dmac and gateway or
0 meaning the packet should continue up the stack. In time we can
revisit this to return the FIB lookup result errno if it is one of the
special RTN_'s such as RTN_BLACKHOLE (-EINVAL) so that the XDP
programs can do an early drop if desired.
Patches 1-6 do some more refactoring to IPv6 with the end goal of
extracting a FIB lookup function that aligns with fib_lookup for IPv4,
basically returning a fib6_info without creating a dst based entry.
Patch 7 adds lookup functions to the ipv6 stub. These are needed since
bpf is built into the kernel and ipv6 may not be built or loaded.
Patch 8 adds the bpf helper and 9 adds a sample program.
v3
- remove ETH_ALEN and in6_addr from uapi header
v2
- removed pkt_access from bpf_func_proto as noticed by Daniel
- added check in that IPv6 forwarding is enabled
- added DaveM's ack on patches 1-7 and 9 based on v1 response and
fact that no changes were made to them in v2
v1
- updated commit messages and cover letter
- added comment to sample program noting lack of verification on
egress device supporting XDP
RFC v2
- fixed use of foward helper from cls_act as noted by Daniel
- in patch 1 rename fib6_lookup_1 as well for consistency
David Ahern (9):
net/ipv6: Rename fib6_lookup to fib6_node_lookup
net/ipv6: Rename rt6_multipath_select
net/ipv6: Extract table lookup from ip6_pol_route
net/ipv6: Refactor fib6_rule_action
net/ipv6: Add fib6_lookup
net/ipv6: Update fib6 tracepoint to take fib6_info
net/ipv6: Add fib lookup stubs for use in bpf helper
bpf: Provide helper to do forwarding lookups in kernel FIB table
samples/bpf: Add example of ipv4 and ipv6 forwarding in XDP
