net: Update API for VF vlan protocol 802.1ad support

2016-09-24T12:01:26Z

Introduce new rtnl UAPI that exposes a list of vlans per VF, giving the ability for user-space application to specify it for the VF, as an option to support 802.1ad. We adjusted IP Link tool to support this option. For future use cases, the new UAPI supports multiple vlans. For now we limit the list size to a single vlan in kernel. Add IFLA_VF_VLAN_LIST in addition to IFLA_VF_VLAN to keep backward compatibility with older versions of IP Link tool. Add a vlan protocol parameter to the ndo_set_vf_vlan callback. We kept 802.1Q as the drivers' default vlan protocol. Suitable ip link tool command examples: Set vf vlan protocol 802.1ad: ip link set eth0 vf 1 vlan 100 proto 802.1ad Set vf to VST (802.1Q) mode: ip link set eth0 vf 1 vlan 100 proto 802.1Q Or by omitting the new parameter ip link set eth0 vf 1 vlan 100 Signed-off-by: Moshe Shemesh Signed-off-by: Tariq Toukan Signed-off-by: David S.

if_link: Add control trust VF

2015-10-23T12:44:28Z

Add netlink directives and ndo entry to trust VF user. This controls the special permission of VF user. The administrator will dedicatedly trust VF user to use some features which impacts security and/or performance. The administrator never turn it on unless VF user is fully trusted.

net/core: Add reading VF statistics through the PF netdevice

2015-06-16T00:23:03Z

Add ndo_get_vf_stats where the PF retrieves and fills the VFs traffic statistics. We encode the VF stats in a nested manner to allow for future extensions. Signed-off-by: Eran Ben Elisha Signed-off-by: Hadar Hen Zion Signed-off-by: Or Gerlitz Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

if_link: Add an additional parameter to ifla_vf_info for RSS querying

2015-04-11T04:57:22Z

Add configuration setting for drivers to allow/block an RSS Redirection Table and a Hash Key querying for discrete VFs. On some devices VF share the mentioned above information with PF and querying it may adduce a theoretical security risk. We want to let a system administrator to decide if he/she wants to take this risk or not. Signed-off-by: Vlad Zolotarov Tested-by: Phil Schmitt Signed-off-by: Jeff Kirsher

net-next:v4: Add support to configure SR-IOV VF minimum and maximum Tx rate through ip tool.

2014-05-23T19:04:02Z

o min_tx_rate puts lower limit on the VF bandwidth. VF is guaranteed to have a bandwidth of at least this value. max_tx_rate puts cap on the VF bandwidth. VF can have a bandwidth of up to this value. o A new handler set_vf_rate for attr IFLA_VF_RATE has been introduced which takes 4 arguments: netdev, VF number, min_tx_rate, max_tx_rate o ndo_set_vf_rate replaces ndo_set_vf_tx_rate handler. o Drivers that currently implement ndo_set_vf_tx_rate should now call ndo_set_vf_rate instead and reject attempt to set a minimum bandwidth greater than 0 for IFLA_VF_TX_RATE when IFLA_VF_RATE is not yet implemented by driver. o If user enters only one of either min_tx_rate or max_tx_rate, then, userland should read back the other value from driver and set both for IFLA_VF_RATE. Drivers that have not yet implemented IFLA_VF_RATE should always return min_tx_rate as 0 when read from ip tool. o If both IFLA_VF_TX_RATE and IFLA_VF_RATE options are specified, then IFLA_VF_RATE should override. o Idea is to have consistent display of rate values to user. o Usage example: - ./ip link set p4p1 vf 0 rate 900 ./ip link show p4p1 32: p4p1: mtu 1500 qdisc noop state DOWN mode DEFAULT qlen 1000 link/ether 00:0e:1e:08:b0:f0 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff vf 0 MAC 3e:a0:ca:bd:ae:5a, tx rate 900 (Mbps), max_tx_rate 900Mbps vf 1 MAC f6:c6:7c:3f:3d:6c vf 2 MAC 56:32:43:98:d7:71 vf 3 MAC d6:be:c3:b5:85:ff vf 4 MAC ee:a9:9a:1e:19:14 vf 5 MAC 4a:d0:4c:07:52:18 vf 6 MAC 3a:76:44:93:62:f9 vf 7 MAC 82:e9:e7:e3:15:1a ./ip link set p4p1 vf 0 max_tx_rate 300 min_tx_rate 200 ./ip link show p4p1 32: p4p1: mtu 1500 qdisc noop state DOWN mode DEFAULT qlen 1000 link/ether 00:0e:1e:08:b0:f0 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff vf 0 MAC 3e:a0:ca:bd:ae:5a, tx rate 300 (Mbps), max_tx_rate 300Mbps, min_tx_rate 200Mbps vf 1 MAC f6:c6:7c:3f:3d:6c vf 2 MAC 56:32:43:98:d7:71 vf 3 MAC d6:be:c3:b5:85:ff vf 4 MAC ee:a9:9a:1e:19:14 vf 5 MAC 4a:d0:4c:07:52:18 vf 6 MAC 3a:76:44:93:62:f9 vf 7 MAC 82:e9:e7:e3:15:1a ./ip link set p4p1 vf 0 max_tx_rate 600 rate 300 ./ip link show p4p1 32: p4p1: mtu 1500 qdisc noop state DOWN mode DEFAULT qlen 1000 link/ether 00:0e:1e:08:b0:f brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff vf 0 MAC 3e:a0:ca:bd:ae:5, tx rate 600 (Mbps), max_tx_rate 600Mbps, min_tx_rate 200Mbps vf 1 MAC f6:c6:7c:3f:3d:6c vf 2 MAC 56:32:43:98:d7:71 vf 3 MAC d6:be:c3:b5:85:ff vf 4 MAC ee:a9:9a:1e:19:14 vf 5 MAC 4a:d0:4c:07:52:18 vf 6 MAC 3a:76:44:93:62:f9 vf 7 MAC 82:e9:e7:e3:15:1a Signed-off-by: Sucheta Chakraborty Signed-off-by: David S.

net/core: Add VF link state control

2013-06-14T00:51:04Z

Add netlink directives and ndo entry to allow for controling VF link, which can be in one of three states: Auto - VF link state reflects the PF link state (default) Up - VF link state is up, traffic from VF to VF works even if the actual PF link is down Down - VF link state is down, no traffic from/to this VF, can be of use while configuring the VF Signed-off-by: Rony Efraim Signed-off-by: Or Gerlitz Signed-off-by: David S.

vxlan: allow configuring port range

2012-10-11T02:41:21Z

VXLAN bases source UDP port based on flow to help the receiver to be able to load balance based on outer header flow. This patch restricts the port range to the normal UDP local ports, and allows overriding via configuration. It also uses jhash of Ethernet header when looking at flows with out know L3 header.

vxlan: virtual extensible lan

2012-10-01T22:39:45Z

This is an implementation of Virtual eXtensible Local Area Network as described in draft RFC: http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-mahalingam-dutt-dcops-vxlan-02 The driver integrates a Virtual Tunnel Endpoint (VTEP) functionality that learns MAC to IP address mapping. This implementation has not been tested only against the Linux userspace implementation using TAP, not against other vendor's equipment. Signed-off-by: Stephen Hemminger Signed-off-by: David S.

IB/ipoib: Add more rtnl_link_ops callbacks

2012-10-01T21:12:22Z

Add the rtnl_link_ops changelink and fill_info callbacks, through which the admin can now set/get the driver mode, etc policies. Maintain the proprietary sysfs entries only for legacy childs. For child devices, set dev->iflink to point to the parent device ifindex, such that user space tools can now correctly show the uplink relation as done for vlan, macvlan, etc devices.
