2011-12-14vlan: add rtnl_dereference() annotationsDan Carpenter
The original code generates a Sparse warning: net/8021q/vlan_core.c:336:9: error: incompatible types in comparison expression (different address spaces) It's ok to dereference __rcu pointers here because we are holding the RTNL lock. I've added some calls to rtnl_dereference() to silence the warning.

2011-06-11vlan: Fix the ingress VLAN_FLAG_REORDER_HDR checkJiri Pirko
Testing of VLAN_FLAG_REORDER_HDR does not belong in vlan_untag but rather in vlan_do_receive. Otherwise the vlan header will not be properly put on the packet in the case of vlan header accelleration. As we remove the check from vlan_check_reorder_header rename it vlan_reorder_header to keep the naming clean. Fix up the skb->pkt_type early so we don't look at the packet after adding the vlan tag, which guarantees we don't goof and look at the wrong field. Use a simple if statement instead of a complicated switch statement to decided that we need to increment rx_stats for a multicast packet. Hopefully at somepoint we will just declare the case where VLAN_FLAG_REORDER_HDR is cleared as unsupported and remove the code. Until then this keeps it working correctly. Signed-off-by: Eric W.

2011-04-12net: vlan: make non-hw-accel rx path similar to hw-accelJiri Pirko
Now there are 2 paths for rx vlan frames. When rx-vlan-hw-accel is enabled, skb is untagged by NIC, vlan_tci is set and the skb gets into vlan code in __netif_receive_skb - vlan_hwaccel_do_receive. For non-rx-vlan-hw-accel however, tagged skb goes thru whole __netif_receive_skb, it's untagged in ptype_base hander and reinjected This incosistency is fixed by this patch. Vlan untagging happens early in __netif_receive_skb so the rest of code (ptype_all handlers, rx_handlers) see the skb like it was untagged by hw.

2010-10-21vlan: Centralize handling of hardware acceleration.Jesse Gross
Currently each driver that is capable of vlan hardware acceleration must be aware of the vlan groups that are configured and then pass the stripped tag to a specialized receive function. This is different from other types of hardware offload in that it places a significant amount of knowledge in the driver itself rather keeping it in the networking core. This makes vlan offloading function more similarly to other forms of offloading (such as checksum offloading or TSO) by doing the following: * On receive, stripped vlans are passed directly to the network core, without attempting to check for vlan groups or reconstructing the header if no group * vlans are made less special by folding the logic into the main receive routines * On transmit, the device layer will add the vlan header in software if the hardware doesn't support it, instead of spreading that logic out in upper layers, such as bonding. There are a number of advantages to this: * Fixes all bugs with drivers incorrectly dropping vlan headers at once. * Avoids having to disable VLAN acceleration when in promiscuous mode (good for bridging since it always puts devices in promiscuous mode). * Keeps VLAN tag separate until given to ultimate consumer, which avoids needing to do header reconstruction as in tg3 unless absolutely necessary. * Consolidates common code in core networking.

2010-10-05net: add a core netdev->rx_dropped counterEric Dumazet
In various situations, a device provides a packet to our stack and we drop it before it enters protocol stack : - softnet backlog full (accounted in /proc/net/softnet_stat) - bad vlan tag (not accounted) - unknown/unregistered protocol (not accounted) We can handle a per-device counter of such dropped frames at core level, and automatically adds it to the device provided stats (rx_dropped), so that standard tools can be used (ifconfig, ip link, cat /proc/net/dev) This is a generalization of commit 8990f468a (net: rx_dropped accounting), thus reverting it.

2010-07-18vlan_dev: VLAN 0 should be treated as "no vlan tag" (802.1p packet)Pedro Garcia
- Without the 8021q module loaded in the kernel, all 802.1p packets (VLAN 0 but QoS tagging) are silently discarded (as expected, as the protocol is not loaded). - Without this patch in 8021q module, these packets are forwarded to the module, but they are discarded also if VLAN 0 is not configured, which should not be the default behaviour, as VLAN 0 is not really a VLANed packet but a 802.1p packet. Defining VLAN 0 makes it almost impossible to communicate with mixed 802.1p and non 802.1p devices on the same network due to arp table issues. - Changed logic to skip vlan specific code in vlan_skb_recv if VLAN is 0 and we have not defined a VLAN with ID 0, but we accept the packet with the encapsulated proto and pass it later to netif_rx. - In the vlan device event handler, added some logic to add VLAN 0 to HW filter in devices that support it (this prevented any traffic in VLAN 0 to reach the stack in e1000e with HW filter under 2.6.35, and probably also with other HW filtered cards, so we fix it here). - In the vlan unregister logic, prevent the elimination of VLAN 0 in devices with HW filter. - The default behaviour is to ignore the VLAN 0 tagging and accept the packet as if it was not tagged, but we can still define a VLAN 0 if desired (so it is backwards compatible).

2010-06-10net: deliver skbs on inactive slaves to exact matchesJohn Fastabend
Currently, the accelerated receive path for VLAN's will drop packets if the real device is an inactive slave and is not one of the special pkts tested for in skb_bond_should_drop(). This behavior is different then the non-accelerated path and for pkts over a bonded vlan. For example, vlanx -> bond0 -> ethx will be dropped in the vlan path and not delivered to any packet handlers at all. However, bond0 -> vlanx -> ethx and bond0 -> ethx will be delivered to handlers that match the exact dev, because the VLAN path checks the real_dev which is not a slave and netif_recv_skb() doesn't drop frames but only delivers them to exact matches. This patch adds a sk_buff flag which is used for tagging skbs that would previously been dropped and allows the skb to continue to skb_netif_recv(). Here we add logic to check for the deliver_no_wcard flag and if it is set only deliver to handlers that match exactly. This makes both paths above consistent and gives pkt handlers a way to identify skbs that come from inactive slaves. Without this patch in some configurations skbs will be delivered to handlers with exact matches and in others be dropped out right in the vlan path. I have tested the following 4 configurations in failover modes and load balancing modes. # bond0 -> ethx # vlanx -> bond0 -> ethx # bond0 -> vlanx -> ethx # bond0 -> ethx | vlanx -> -- Signed-off-by: John Fastabend <john.r.fastabend@intel.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

2009-03-16GRO: Move netpoll checks to correct locationHerbert Xu
As my netpoll fix for net doesn't really work for net-next, we need this update to move the checks into the right place. As it stands we may pass freed skbs to netpoll_receive_skb. This patch also introduces a netpoll_rx_on function to avoid GRO completely if we're invoked through netpoll. This might seem paranoid but as netpoll may have an external receive hook it's better to be safe than sorry. I don't think we need this for 2.6.29 though since there's nothing immediately broken by it. This patch also moves the GRO_* return values to netdevice.h since VLAN needs them too (I tried to avoid this originally but alas this seems to be the easiest way out).

2009-03-01netpoll: Add drop checks to all entry pointsHerbert Xu
The netpoll entry checks are required to ensure that we don't receive normal packets when invoked via netpoll. Unfortunately it only ever worked for the netif_receive_skb/netif_rx entry points. The VLAN (and subsequently GRO) entry point didn't have the check and therefore can trigger all sorts of weird problems. This patch adds the netpoll check to all entry points. I'm still uneasy with receiving at all under netpoll (which apparently is only used by the out-of-tree kdump code). The reason is it is perfectly legal to receive all data including headers into highmem if netpoll is off, but if you try to do that with netpoll on and someone gets a printk in an IRQ handler you're going to get a nice BUG_ON.

Unfortunately simplicity isn't always the best. The fraginfo interface turned out to be suboptimal. The problem was quite obvious.

LRO didn't have this problem because it directly read the headers from the frags structure. This patch attempts to address this by creating an interface that allows GRO to access the headers in the first frag without having to copy it. Because all drivers that use frags place the headers in the first frag this optimisation should be enough. Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au> Signed-off-by: David S.

Currently VLAN still has a bit of common code handling the aftermath of GRO that's shared with the common path. This patch moves them into shared helpers to reduce code duplication. Signed-off-by: Herbert Xu <herbert@gondor.apana.org.au> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2009-01-26vlan: Export symbols as non GPL symbols.Ben Greear
In previous kernels, any kernel module could get access to the 'real-device' and the VLAN-ID for a particular VLAN. In more recent kernels, the code was restructured such that this is hard to do without accessing private .h files for any module that cannot use GPL-only symbols. Attached is a patch to once again allow non-GPL modules the ability to access the real-device and VLAN id for VLANs.

2009-01-06vlan: Add GRO interfacesHerbert Xu
This patch adds GRO interfaces for hardware-assisted VLAN reception. With this in place we're now at parity with LRO as far as the interface is concerned. That is, you can now take any LRO driver and convert it over to GRO. As the CB memory clashes with GRO's use of CB, I've removed it entirely by storing dev in skb->dev. This is OK because VLAN gets called first thing in netif_receive_skb and skb->dev is not used in between us calling netif_rx and netif_receive_skb getting called.

2008-11-04net: fix packet socket delivery in rx irq handlerPatrick McHardy
The changes to deliver hardware accelerated VLAN packets to packet sockets (commit bc1d0411) caused a warning for non-NAPI drivers. The __vlan_hwaccel_rx() function is called directly from the drivers RX function, for non-NAPI drivers that means its still in RX IRQ context: [ 27.779463] ------------[ cut here ]------------ [ 27.779509] WARNING: at kernel/softirq.c:136 local_bh_enable+0x37/0x81() ...

2008-07-14vlan: deliver packets received with VLAN acceleration to network tapsPatrick McHardy
When VLAN header stripping is used, packets currently bypass packet sockets (and other network taps) completely. For locally existing VLANs, they appear directly on the VLAN device, for unknown VLANs they are silently dropped. Add a new function netif_nit_deliver() to deliver incoming packets to all network interface taps and use it in __vlan_hwaccel_rx() to make VLAN packets visible on the underlying device.
