Hi, Jiri I'm very glad to see you're continuing this work :-), I asked Simon about this twice, but nobody replies. I also remember Cascardo has a patch set to collaborate with this patch set, I asked Cascardo, but nobody responds, will you continue to do Cascardo's " create tunnel devices using rtnetlink interface" patch set? I test the old one v3, that can work with vxlan module in kernel, but if I build ovs with option " --with-linux=/lib/modules/`uname -r`/build", ovs vxlan module is built in vport_vxlan module, when I create vxlan-gpe port, kernel will automatically load vxlan module in the kernel instead of using the APIs in vport_vxlan module.
Cascardo, are you still working on this? -----Original Message----- From: netdev-ow...@vger.kernel.org [mailto:netdev-ow...@vger.kernel.org] On Behalf Of Jiri Benc Sent: Thursday, November 10, 2016 11:28 PM To: net...@vger.kernel.org Cc: d...@openvswitch.org; Pravin Shelar <pshe...@ovn.org>; Lorand Jakab <loja...@cisco.com>; Simon Horman <simon.hor...@netronome.com> Subject: [PATCH net-next v13 0/8] openvswitch: support for layer 3 encapsulated packets At the core of this patch set is removing the assumption in Open vSwitch datapath that all packets have Ethernet header. The implementation relies on the presence of pop_eth and push_eth actions in datapath flows to facilitate adding and removing Ethernet headers as appropriate. The construction of such flows is left up to user-space. This series is based on work by Simon Horman, Lorand Jakab, Thomas Morin and others. I kept Lorand's and Simon's s-o-b in the patches that are derived from v11 to record their authorship of parts of the code. Changes from v12 to v13: * Addressed Pravin's feedback. * Removed the GRE vport conversion patch; L3 GRE ports should be created by rtnetlink instead. Main changes from v11 to v12: * The patches were restructured and split differently for easier review. * They were rebased and adjusted to the current net-next. Especially MPLS handling is different (and easier) thanks to the recent MPLS GSO rework. * Several bugs were discovered and fixed. The most notable is fragment handling: header adjustment for ARPHRD_NONE devices on tx needs to be done after refragmentation, not before it. This required significant changes in the patchset. Another one is stricter checking of attributes (match on L2 vs. L3 packet) at the kernel level. * Instead of is_layer3 bool, a mac_proto field is used. Jiri Benc (8): openvswitch: use hard_header_len instead of hardcoded ETH_HLEN openvswitch: add mac_proto field to the flow key openvswitch: pass mac_proto to ovs_vport_send openvswitch: support MPLS push and pop for L3 packets openvswitch: add processing of L3 packets openvswitch: netlink: support L3 packets openvswitch: add Ethernet push and pop actions openvswitch: allow L3 netdev ports include/uapi/linux/openvswitch.h | 15 ++++ net/openvswitch/actions.c | 111 +++++++++++++++++------- net/openvswitch/datapath.c | 13 +-- net/openvswitch/flow.c | 105 +++++++++++++++++------ net/openvswitch/flow.h | 22 +++++ net/openvswitch/flow_netlink.c | 179 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++------------- net/openvswitch/vport-netdev.c | 9 +- net/openvswitch/vport.c | 31 +++++-- net/openvswitch/vport.h | 2 +- 9 files changed, 353 insertions(+), 134 deletions(-) -- 1.8.3.1 _______________________________________________ dev mailing list d...@openvswitch.org https://mail.openvswitch.org/mailman/listinfo/ovs-dev
