[PATCH net-next v5 0/2] MPLS: Add limited GSO support

[PATCH net-next v5 0/2] MPLS: Add limited GSO support

[Simon Horman]

In the case where a non-MPLS packet is received and an MPLS stack is
added it may well be the case that the original skb is GSO but the
NIC used for transmit does not support GSO of MPLS packets.

The aim of this short series is to provide GSO in software for MPLS packets
whose skbs are GSO.

Change since v4:

Update first patch of the series to use 16 bits for all *_headers
rather than just inner_*_headers

[PATCH net-next v5 1/2] net: Use 16bits for *_headers fields of struct skbuff

[Simon Horman]

In order to mitigate ongoing incresase in the size of struct skbuff
use 16 bit integer offsets rather than pointers for inner_*_headers.

This appears to reduce the size of struct skbuff from 0xd0 to 0xc0
bytes on x86_64 with the following all unset.

[PATCH net-next v5 2/2] MPLS: Add limited GSO support

[Simon Horman]

In the case where a non-MPLS packet is received and an MPLS stack is
added it may well be the case that the original skb is GSO but the
NIC used for transmit does not support GSO of MPLS packets.

The aim of this code is to provide GSO in software for MPLS packets
whose skbs are GSO.

SKB Usage:

When an implementation adds an MPLS stack to a non-MPLS packet it should do
the following to skb metadata:

* Set skb->inner_protocol to the old non-MPLS ethertype of the packet.
  skb->inner_protocol is added by this patch.

* Set skb->protocol to the new MPLS ethertype of the packet.

* Set skb->network_header to correspond to the
  end of the L3 header, including the MPLS label stack.

I have posted a patch, "[PATCH v3.29] datapath: Add basic MPLS support to
kernel" which adds MPLS support to the kernel datapath of Open vSwtich.
That patch sets the above requirements in datapath/actions.c:push_mpls()
and was used to exercise this code.  The datapath patch is against the Open
vSwtich tree but it is intended that it be added to the Open vSwtich code
present in the mainline Linux kernel at some point.

Features:

I believe that the approach that I have taken is at least partially
consistent with the handling of other protocols.  Jesse, I understand that
you have some ideas here.  I am more than happy to change my implementation.

This patch adds dev->mpls_features which may be used by devices
to advertise features supported for MPLS packets.

A new NETIF_F_MPLS_GSO feature is added for devices which support
hardware MPLS GSO offload.  Currently no devices support this
and MPLS GSO always falls back to software.

Alternate Implementation:

One possible alternate implementation is to teach netif_skb_features()
and skb_network_protocol() about MPLS, in a similar way to their
understanding of VLANs. I believe this would avoid the need
for net/mpls/mpls_gso.c and in particular the calls to
__skb_push() and __skb_push() in mpls_gso_segment().

I have decided on the implementation in this patch as it should
not introduce any overhead in the case where mpls_gso is not compiled
into the kernel or inserted as a module.

MPLS GSO suggested by Jesse Gross.
Based in part on "v4 GRE: Add TCP segmentation offload for GRE"
by Pravin B Shelar.

MPLS GSO also requires "net: Loosen constraints for recalculating checksum
in skb_segment()" in order for segmentation of TCP/IP inner packets to
correctly recalculate checksums.

Tested using the bnx2 driver.

v5
* Move inner_protocol from below inner_mac_header to
  above inner_transport header to allow all *_header fields
  to be grouped together.
* Remove trailing blank line from mpls_gso.c

v4
* Add inner_protocol to kernel doc for struct skbuff
* As suggested by Jesse Gross
  - Refer to CONFIG_NET_MPLS_GSO rather than CONFIG_NET_GRE_GSO in
    change log
  - Reword the changelog to reflect that mac_len is not set to correspond
    to the end of l3 data. Its value is not important to the function of
    GSO as a call to skb_reset_mac_len() is made in __skb_gso_segment().

* I considered guarding the presence of inner_protocol in struct skbuff with
  #ifdef CONFIG_NET_MPLS_GSO as it is otherwise unused. However, this
  makes accessing inner_protocol from out-of tree code somewhat tedious.
  And the reference usage of this code is the out-of tree version
  of the Open vSwitch datapath.

v3
* As suggested by Ben Hutchings
  - Update NETIF_F_GSO_LAST
* Update SKB usage
  - Add and use skb->inner_protocol
  - Set skb->protocol to MPLS ethertype of packet
  - Set skb->mac_len and skb->network_header to correspond to the
    end of the L3 header.

v2
* As suggested by Jarno Rajahalme
  - Update NETIF_F_GSO_LAST
  - mpls_mc_offload to use ETH_P_MPLS_MC
* Remove NETIF_F_iP_CSUM|NETIF_F_IPV6_CSUM features hack in
  mpls_gso_segment()

Looks good, and harmless, applied, thanks!

Thanks!


kbuild tells me that the change to use 16 bit offsets for the header
elements of skb appears to have added some build warnings. I will track
them down and fix them ASAP.

[PATCH net-next v5 2/2] MPLS: Add limited GSO support

[Simon Horman]

In the case where a non-MPLS packet is received and an MPLS stack is
added it may well be the case that the original skb is GSO but the
NIC used for transmit does not support GSO of MPLS packets.

The aim of this code is to provide GSO in software for MPLS packets
whose skbs are GSO.

SKB Usage:

When an implementation adds an MPLS stack to a non-MPLS packet it should do
the following to skb metadata:

* Set skb->inner_protocol to the old non-MPLS ethertype of the packet.
  skb->inner_protocol is added by this patch.

* Set skb->protocol to the new MPLS ethertype of the packet.

* Set skb->network_header to correspond to the
  end of the L3 header, including the MPLS label stack.

I have posted a patch, "[PATCH v3.29] datapath: Add basic MPLS support to
kernel" which adds MPLS support to the kernel datapath of Open vSwtich.
That patch sets the above requirements in datapath/actions.c:push_mpls()
and was used to exercise this code.  The datapath patch is against the Open
vSwtich tree but it is intended that it be added to the Open vSwtich code
present in the mainline Linux kernel at some point.

Features:

I believe that the approach that I have taken is at least partially
consistent with the handling of other protocols.  Jesse, I understand that
you have some ideas here.  I am more than happy to change my implementation.

This patch adds dev->mpls_features which may be used by devices
to advertise features supported for MPLS packets.

A new NETIF_F_MPLS_GSO feature is added for devices which support
hardware MPLS GSO offload.  Currently no devices support this
and MPLS GSO always falls back to software.

Alternate Implementation:

One possible alternate implementation is to teach netif_skb_features()
and skb_network_protocol() about MPLS, in a similar way to their
understanding of VLANs. I believe this would avoid the need
for net/mpls/mpls_gso.c and in particular the calls to
__skb_push() and __skb_push() in mpls_gso_segment().

I have decided on the implementation in this patch as it should
not introduce any overhead in the case where mpls_gso is not compiled
into the kernel or inserted as a module.

MPLS GSO suggested by Jesse Gross.
Based in part on "v4 GRE: Add TCP segmentation offload for GRE"
by Pravin B Shelar.

MPLS GSO also requires "net: Loosen constraints for recalculating checksum
in skb_segment()" in order for segmentation of TCP/IP inner packets to
correctly recalculate checksums.

Tested using the bnx2 driver.

v5
* Move inner_protocol from below inner_mac_header to
  above inner_transport header to allow all *_header fields
  to be grouped together.
* Remove trailing blank line from mpls_gso.c

v4
* Add inner_protocol to kernel doc for struct skbuff
* As suggested by Jesse Gross
  - Refer to CONFIG_NET_MPLS_GSO rather than CONFIG_NET_GRE_GSO in
    change log
  - Reword the changelog to reflect that mac_len is not set to correspond
    to the end of l3 data. Its value is not important to the function of
    GSO as a call to skb_reset_mac_len() is made in __skb_gso_segment().

* I considered guarding the presence of inner_protocol in struct skbuff with
  #ifdef CONFIG_NET_MPLS_GSO as it is otherwise unused. However, this
  makes accessing inner_protocol from out-of tree code somewhat tedious.
  And the reference usage of this code is the out-of tree version
  of the Open vSwitch datapath.

v3
* As suggested by Ben Hutchings
  - Update NETIF_F_GSO_LAST
* Update SKB usage
  - Add and use skb->inner_protocol
  - Set skb->protocol to MPLS ethertype of packet
  - Set skb->mac_len and skb->network_header to correspond to the
    end of the L3 header.

v2
* As suggested by Jarno Rajahalme
  - Update NETIF_F_GSO_LAST
  - mpls_mc_offload to use ETH_P_MPLS_MC
* Remove NETIF_F_iP_CSUM|NETIF_F_IPV6_CSUM features hack in
  mpls_gso_segment()
