Subject: [PATCH net-next v3 00/24] Introducing OpenVPN Data Channel Offload
Hi all!
I am finally back with version 3 of the ovpn patchset.
It took a while to address all comments I have received on v2, but I
am happy to say that I addressed 99% of the feedback I collected.
The 1% I did not make yet is using BQL for handling the packets queue.
Although such change looks pretty simple in terms of code, I need to
spend some more time understanding the concept behind and therefore
I decided to postpone this change to the (near) future in order to not
slow down the whole review/merge process.
Major changes from v2 are:
* added YAML documentation for the netlink uAPI
** uapi/linnu/ovpn.h, driners/net/ovpn/netlink-gen.{c,h} are now self
generated by the tools/net/ynl/ynl-regen.sh script
* the first patch now also modifies the ynl script to account for the
new MAX_LEN() policy macro
* added more doxygen documentation
* added kselftest unit for ovpn in tools/testing/selftest/ovpn with
some basic tests
* fixed various typ0s in documentation
* moved includes of local headers last
* wrapped code at 80 chars
* rearranged includes a bit to reduce double inclusions
* set default ifname to ovpn%d and allowed users to not specify any
* now sending reply to NEW_IFACE NL command containing actual new ifname
* used GENL_REQ_ATTR_CHECK() when possible
* turned carrier off in iface create function
* turned carrier on in open function and clearly explain why we keep it
always on (new patch)
* left ethtool info ->version empty
* removed internal driver version
* checked return value of alloc_netdev
* renamed _lookup() functions to _get()
* removed memset-zero from init function as netdev is already zero'd
* added missing TCP component initialization in ovpn_init
* .. included various small fixes as requested by reviewers
The latest code can also be found at:
https://github.com/OpenVPN/linux-kernel-ovpn
Thanks to the new kunitest component, it is now pssible to run
basic ovpn tests. Peers are emulated by using multiple network
namespaces which are interconnected by means of veth pairs.
Please note that patches have been split for easier review, but if
required, I can send a long 1/1 with all courses and dishes in one go :)
Thanks so far!
Below is the original description posted with the first patchest:
===================================================================
`ovpn` is essentialy a device driver that allows creating a virtual
network interface to handle the OpenVPN data channel. Any traffic
entering the interface is encrypted, encapsulated and sent to the
appropriate destination.
`ovpn` requires OpenVPN in userspace
to run along its side in order to be properly configured and maintained
during its life cycle.
The `ovpn` interface can be created/destroyed and then
configured via Netlink API.
Specifically OpenVPN in userspace will:
* create the `ovpn` interface
* establish the connection with one or more peers
* perform TLS handshake and negotiate any protocol parameter
* configure the `ovpn` interface with peer data (ip/port, keys, etc.)
* handle any subsequent control channel communication
I'd like to point out the control channel is fully handles in userspace.
The idea is to keep the `ovpn` kernel module as simple as possible and
let userspace handle all the non-data (non-fast-path) features.
NOTE: some of you may already know `ovpn-dco` the out-of-tree predecessor
of `ovpn`. However, be aware that the two are not API compatible and
therefore OpenVPN 2.6 will not work with this new `ovpn` module.
More adjustments are required.
For more technical details please refer to the actual patches.
Any comment, concern or statement will be appreciated!
Thanks a lot!!

Antonio Quartulli
