Subject: [PATCH v6 net-next 0/9] ipv6: Extension header infrastructure
Date: Fri, 20 Dec 2019 15:38:35 -0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1576885124-14576-1-git-send-email-tom@herbertland.com> (raw)

This patchset improves the IPv6 extension header infrastructure
to make extension headers more usable and scalable.

  - Reorganize extension header files to separate out common
    API components
  - Create common TLV handler that will can be used in other use
    cases (e.g. segment routing TLVs, UDP options)
  - Allow registration of TLV handlers
  - Elaborate on the TLV tables to include more characteristics
  - Add a netlink interface to set TLV parameters (such as
    alignment requirements, authorization to send, etc.)
  - Enhance validation of TLVs being sent. Validation is strict
    (unless overridden by admin) following the sending clause
    of the robustness principle
  - Allow non-privileged users to set Hop-by-Hop and Destination
    Options if authorized by the admin

v2:
  - Fix build errors from missing include file.

v3:
  - Fix kbuild issue for ipv6_opt_hdr declared inside parameter list
    in ipeh.h

v4:
  - Resubmit

v5:
  - Fix reverse christmas tree issue

v6:
  - Address comments from Simon Horman
  - Remove new EXTHDRS Kconfig symbol, just use IPV6 for now
  - Split out introduction of parse_error for TLV parsing loop into its
    own patch
  - Fix drop counters in HBH and destination options processing
  - Add extack error messages in netlink code
  - Added range of permissions in include/uapi/linux/ipeh.h
  - Check that min data length is <= max data length when setting
    TLV attributes
