On kernel versions (for example, 3.10) where upstream provides GRE functionality but no ERSPAN, GRE can fail to initialize. Because there is no ERSPAN feature in kernel, openvswitch kernel module will try to register its own IPPROTO_GRE, instead of using the upstream GRE functionality. But GRE could already be added by kernel's gre module. As a result, there will be GRE-related failures.
This patch separates the detection of tunnel and ERSPAN so that the result of ERSPAN detection in kernel doesn't affect tunnel functionality. This fix passed the travis for different kernel versions: https://travis-ci.org/yifsun/ovs-travis/builds/397915843 Signed-off-by: Yifeng Sun <[email protected]> --- v1 -> v2: remove linux version checking and add HAVE_METADATA_IP_TUNNEL checking according to Greg's review. acinclude.m4 | 7 +++++-- datapath/linux/compat/include/net/dst_metadata.h | 6 ++++++ datapath/linux/compat/include/net/erspan.h | 2 +- 3 files changed, 12 insertions(+), 3 deletions(-) diff --git a/acinclude.m4 b/acinclude.m4 index 991a6275b978..e58de8f81210 100644 --- a/acinclude.m4 +++ b/acinclude.m4 @@ -531,9 +531,12 @@ AC_DEFUN([OVS_CHECK_LINUX_COMPAT], [ [OVS_GREP_IFELSE([$KSRC/include/net/ip_tunnels.h], [iptunnel_pull_offloads], [OVS_GREP_IFELSE([$KSRC/include/net/dst_cache.h], [dst_cache], - [OVS_GREP_IFELSE([$KSRC/include/net/erspan.h], [erspan_md2], - [OVS_DEFINE([USE_UPSTREAM_TUNNEL])])])])]) + [OVS_DEFINE([USE_UPSTREAM_TUNNEL])])])]) + OVS_GREP_IFELSE([$KSRC/include/net/erspan.h], [erspan_md2], + [OVS_DEFINE([USE_UPSTREAM_ERSPAN])]) + OVS_GREP_IFELSE([$KSRC/include/net/dst_metadata.h], [enum metadata_type], + [OVS_DEFINE([HAVE_METADATA_IP_TUNNEL])]) OVS_GREP_IFELSE([$KSRC/include/net/dst_cache.h], [dst_cache], [OVS_DEFINE([USE_BUILTIN_DST_CACHE])]) OVS_GREP_IFELSE([$KSRC/include/net/mpls.h], [mpls_hdr], diff --git a/datapath/linux/compat/include/net/dst_metadata.h b/datapath/linux/compat/include/net/dst_metadata.h index e53a29ed2222..54f3ffb0aa11 100644 --- a/datapath/linux/compat/include/net/dst_metadata.h +++ b/datapath/linux/compat/include/net/dst_metadata.h @@ -1,10 +1,12 @@ #ifndef __NET_DST_METADATA_WRAPPER_H #define __NET_DST_METADATA_WRAPPER_H 1 +#ifndef HAVE_METADATA_IP_TUNNEL enum metadata_type { METADATA_IP_TUNNEL, METADATA_HW_PORT_MUX, }; +#endif #ifdef USE_UPSTREAM_TUNNEL #include_next <net/dst_metadata.h> @@ -119,7 +121,11 @@ void ovs_ip_tunnel_rcv(struct net_device *dev, struct sk_buff *skb, static inline struct metadata_dst * rpl_metadata_dst_alloc(u8 optslen, enum metadata_type type, gfp_t flags) { +#ifdef HAVE_METADATA_IP_TUNNEL + return metadata_dst_alloc(optslen, type, flags); +#else return metadata_dst_alloc(optslen, flags); +#endif } #define metadata_dst_alloc rpl_metadata_dst_alloc diff --git a/datapath/linux/compat/include/net/erspan.h b/datapath/linux/compat/include/net/erspan.h index 9fdae97b5fc4..f3035b678e87 100644 --- a/datapath/linux/compat/include/net/erspan.h +++ b/datapath/linux/compat/include/net/erspan.h @@ -1,4 +1,4 @@ -#ifndef USE_UPSTREAM_TUNNEL +#ifndef USE_UPSTREAM_ERSPAN #ifndef __LINUX_ERSPAN_H #define __LINUX_ERSPAN_H -- 2.7.4 _______________________________________________ dev mailing list [email protected] https://mail.openvswitch.org/mailman/listinfo/ovs-dev
