Subject: [PATCH net-next 00/23] netfilter: flowtable enhancements
Hi,
The following patchset augments the Netfilter flowtable fastpath to
support for network topologies that combine IP forwarding, bridge,
classic VLAN devices, bridge VLAN filtering, DSA and PPPoE. This
includes support for the flowtable software and hardware datapaths.
The following pictures provides an example scenario:
fast path!
.------------------------.
/ \
| IP forwarding |
| / \ \/
| br0 wan ..... eth0
. / \ host C
-> veth1 veth2
. switch/router
.
.
eth0
host A
The bridge master device 'br0' has an IP address and a DHCP server is
also assumed to be running to provide connectivity to host A which
reaches the Internet through 'br0' as default gateway. Then, packet
enters the IP forwarding path and Netfilter is used to NAT the packets
before they leave through the wan device.
The general idea is to accelerate forwarding by building a fast path
that takes packets from the ingress path of the bridge port and place
them in the egress path of the wan device (and vice versa). Hence,
skipping the classic bridge and IP stack paths.
** Patch from #1 to #6 add the infrastructure which describes the list of
netdevice hops to reach a given destination MAC address in the local
network topology.
Patch #1 adds dev_fill_forward_path() and .ndo_fill_forward_path() to
netdev_ops.
Patch #2 adds .ndo_fill_forward_path for vlan devices, which provides
the next device hop via vlan->real_dev, the vlan ID and the
protocol.
Patch #3 adds .ndo_fill_forward_path for bridge devices, which allows to make
lookups to the FDB to locate the next device hop (bridge port) in the
forwarding path.
Patch #4 extends bridge .ndo_fill_forward_path to support for bridge VLAN
filtering.
Patch #5 adds .ndo_fill_forward_path for PPPoE devices.
Patch #6 adds .ndo_fill_forward_path for DSA.
Patches from #7 to #14 update the flowtable software datapath:
Patch #7 adds the transmit path type field to the flow tuple. Two transmit
paths are supported so far: the neighbour and the xfrm transmit
paths.
Patch #8 and #9 update the flowtable datapath to use dev_fill_forward_path()
to obtain the real ingress/egress device for the flowtable datapath.
This adds the new ethernet xmit direct path to the flowtable.
Patch #10 adds native flowtable VLAN support (up to 2 VLAN tags) through
dev_fill_forward_path(). The flowtable stores the VLAN id and
protocol in the flow tuple.
Patch #11 adds native flowtable bridge VLAN filter support through
dev_fill_forward_path().
Patch #12 adds native flowtable bridge PPPoE through dev_fill_forward_path().
Patch #13 adds DSA support through dev_fill_forward_path().
Patch #14 extends flowtable selftests to cover for flowtable software
datapath enhancements.
** Patches from #15 to #20 update the flowtable hardware offload datapath:
Patch #15 extends the flowtable hardware offload to support for the
direct ethernet xmit path. This also includes VLAN support.
Patch #16 stores the egress real device in the flow tuple. The software
flowtable datapath uses dev_hard_header() to transmit packets,
hence it might refer to VLAN/DSA/PPPoE software device, not
the real ethernet device.
Patch #17 deals with switchdev PVID hardware offload to skip it on
egress.
Patch #18 adds FLOW_ACTION_PPPOE_PUSH to the flow_offload action API.
Patch #19 extends the flowtable hardware offload to support for PPPoE
Patch #20 adds TC_SETUP_FT support for DSA.
** Patches from #20 to #23: Felix Fietkau adds a new driver which support
hardware offload for the mtk PPE engine through the existing flow
offload API which supports for the flowtable enhancements coming in
this batch.
