2019-12-09xfrm: add espintcp (RFC 8229)Sabrina Dubroca
TCP encapsulation of IKE and IPsec messages (RFC 8229) is implemented as a TCP ULP, overriding in particular the sendmsg and recvmsg operations. A Stream Parser is used to extract messages out of the TCP stream using the first 2 bytes as length marker. Received IKE messages are put on "ike_queue", waiting to be dequeued by the custom recvmsg implementation. Received ESP messages are sent to XFRM, like with UDP encapsulation. Some of this code is taken from the original submission by Herbert Xu. Currently, only IPv4 is supported, like for UDP encapsulation.

2018-11-07udp: implement GRO for plain UDP sockets.Paolo Abeni
This is the RX counterpart of commit bec1f6f69736 ("udp: generate gso with UDP_SEGMENT"). When UDP_GRO is enabled, such socket is also eligible for GRO in the rx path: UDP segments directed to such socket are assembled into a larger GSO_UDP_L4 packet. The core UDP GRO support is enabled with setsockopt(UDP_GRO). Initial benchmark numbers: Before: udp rx: 1079 MB/s 769065 calls/s After: udp rx: 1466 MB/s 24877 calls/s This change introduces a side effect in respect to UDP tunnels: after a UDP tunnel creation, now the kernel performs a lookup per ingress UDP packet, while before such lookup happened only if the ingress packet carried a valid internal header csum. rfc v2 -> rfc v3: - fixed typos in macro name and comments - really enforce UDP_GRO_CNT_MAX, instead of UDP_GRO_CNT_MAX + 1 - acquire socket lock in UDP_GRO setsockopt rfc v1 -> rfc v2: - use a new option to enable UDP GRO - use static keys to protect the UDP GRO socket lookup Signed-off-by: Paolo Abeni <pabeni@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

2018-10-08rxrpc: Use the UDP encap_rcv hookDavid Howells
Use the UDP encap_rcv hook to cut the bit out of the rxrpc packet reception in which a packet is placed onto the UDP receive queue and then immediately removed again by rxrpc. Going via the queue in this manner seems like it should be unnecessary. This does, however, require the invention of a value to place in encap_type as that's one of the conditions to switch packets out to the encap_rcv hook. Possibly the value doesn't actually matter for anything other than sockopts on the UDP socket, which aren't accessible outside of rxrpc anyway. This seems to cut a bit of time out of the time elapsed between each sk_buff being timestamped and turning up in rxrpc (the final number in the following trace excerpts). I measured this by making the rxrpc_rx_packet trace point print the time elapsed between the skb being timestamped and the current time (in ns), e.g.: ... 424.278721: rxrpc_rx_packet: ...

2018-04-26udp: generate gso with UDP_SEGMENTWillem de Bruijn
Support generic segmentation offload for udp datagrams. Callers can concatenate and send at once the payload of multiple datagrams with the same destination. To set segment size, the caller sets socket option UDP_SEGMENT to the length of each discrete payload. This value must be smaller than or equal to the relevant MTU. A follow-up patch adds cmsg UDP_SEGMENT to specify segment size on a per send call basis. Total byte length may then exceed MTU. If not an exact multiple of segment size, the last segment will be shorter. The implementation adds a gso_size field to the udp socket, ip(v6) cmsg cookie and inet_cork structure to be able to set the value at setsockopt or cmsg time and to work with both lockless and corked paths. Initial benchmark numbers show UDP GSO about as expensive as TCP GSO. tcp tso 3197 MB/s 54232 msg/s 54232 calls/s 6,457,754,262 cycles tcp gso 1765 MB/s 29939 msg/s 29939 calls/s 11,203,021,806 cycles tcp without tso/gso * 739 MB/s 12548 msg/s 12548 calls/s 11,205,483,630 cycles udp 876 MB/s 14873 msg/s 624666 calls/s 11,205,777,429 cycles udp gso 2139 MB/s 36282 msg/s 36282 calls/s 11,204,374,561 cycles [*] after reverting commit 0a6b2a1dc2a2 ("tcp: switch to GSO being always on") Measured total system cycles ('-a') for one core while pinning both the network receive path and benchmark process to that core: perf stat -a -C 12 -e cycles \ ./udpgso_bench_tx -C 12 -4 -D "$DST" -l 4 Note the reduction in calls/s with GSO.

2017-11-02License cleanup: add SPDX license identifier to uapi header files with a licenseGreg Kroah-Hartman
Many user space API headers have licensing information, which is either incomplete, badly formatted or just a shorthand for referring to the license under which the file is supposed to be. This makes it hard for compliance tools to determine the correct license. Update these files with an SPDX license identifier. The identifier was chosen based on the license information in the file. GPL/LGPL licensed headers get the matching GPL/LGPL SPDX license identifier with the added 'WITH Linux-syscall-note' exception, which is the officially assigned exception identifier for the kernel syscall exception: NOTE! This copyright does *not* cover user programs that use kernel services by normal system calls - this is merely considered normal use of the kernel, and does *not* fall under the heading of "derived work". This exception makes it possible to include GPL headers into non GPL code, without confusing license compliance tools. Headers which have either explicit dual licensing or are just licensed under a non GPL license are updated with the corresponding SPDX identifier and the GPLv2 with syscall exception identifier. The format is: ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR SPDX-ID-OF-OTHER-LICENSE) SPDX license identifiers are a legally binding shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text. The update does not remove existing license information as this has to be done on a case by case basis and the copyright holders might have to be consulted. This will happen in a separate step. This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart and Philippe Ombredanne. See the previous patch in this series for the methodology of how this patch was researched.

2016-05-10gtp: add initial driver for datapath of GPRS Tunneling Protocol (GTP-U)Pablo Neira
This is an initial implementation of a netdev driver for GTP datapath (GTP-U) v0 and v1, according to the GSM TS 09.60 and 3GPP TS 29.060 standards. This tunneling protocol is used to prevent subscribers from accessing mobile carrier core network infrastructure. This implementation requires a GGSN userspace daemon that implements the signaling protocol (GTP-C), such as OpenGGSN [1]. This userspace daemon updates the PDP context database that represents active subscriber sessions through a genetlink interface. For more context on this tunneling protocol, you can check the slides that were presented during the NetDev 1.1 [2]. Only IPv4 is supported at this time.

2014-05-23net: Make enabling of zero UDP6 csums more restrictiveTom Herbert
RFC 6935 permits zero checksums to be used in IPv6 however this is recommended only for certain tunnel protocols, it does not make checksums completely optional like they are in IPv4. This patch restricts the use of IPv6 zero checksums that was previously intoduced. no_check6_tx and no_check6_rx have been added to control the use of checksums in UDP6 RX and TX path. The normal sk_no_check_{rx,tx} settings are not used (this avoids ambiguity when dealing with a dual stack socket). A helper function has been added (udp_set_no_check6) which can be called by tunnel impelmentations to all zero checksums (send on the socket, and accept them as valid).
