Message-Id: <20220823154557.1400380-2-eyal.birger@gmail.com> Date: Tue, 23 Aug 2022 18:45:55 +0300 From: Eyal Birger <eyal.birger@...il.com> To: davem@...emloft.net, edumazet@...gle.com, kuba@...nel.org, pabeni@...hat.com, steffen.klassert@...unet.com, herbert@...dor.apana.org.au, pablo@...filter.org, contact@...elbtn.com, dsahern@...nel.org Cc: netdev@...r.kernel.org, bpf@...r.kernel.org, devel@...ux-ipsec.org, Eyal Birger <eyal.birger@...il.com> Subject: [PATCH ipsec-next 1/3] net: allow storing xfrm interface metadata in metadata_dst XFRM interfaces provide the association of various XFRM transformations to a netdevice using an 'if_id' identifier common to both the XFRM data structures (polcies, states) and the interface. The if_id is configured by the controlling entity (usually the IKE daemon) and can be used by the administrator to define logical relations between different connections. For example, different connections can share the if_id identifier so that they pass through the same interface, . However, currently it is not possible for connections using a different if_id to use the same interface while retaining the logical separation between them, without using additional criteria such as skb marks or different traffic selectors. When having a large number of connections, it is useful to have a the logical separation offered by the if_id identifier but use a single network interface. Similar to the way collect_md mode is used in IP tunnels. This patch attempts to enable different configuration mechanisms - such as ebpf programs, LWT encapsulations, and TC - to attach metadata to skbs which would carry the if_id. This way a single xfrm interface in collect_md mode can demux traffic based on this configuration on tx and provide this metadata on rx. The XFRM metadata is somewhat similar to ip tunnel metadata in that it has an "id", and shares similar configuration entities (bpf, tc, ...), however, it does not use other ip tunnel information, and may have additional xfrm related criteria added to it in the future, and it also does not necessarily represent a tunnel as XFRM interfaces support other modes of operation. Therefore, a new metadata type is introduced, to be used in subsequent patches in the xfrm interface and configuration entities.
