2021-05-17T22:29:35+00:00

Every protocol has the 'netns_ok' member and it is euqal to 1. The
'if (!prot->netns_ok)' always false in inet_add_protocol().

fou, fou6: ICMP error handlers for FoU and GUE

2018-11-09T01:13:08+00:00

As the destination port in FoU and GUE receiving sockets doesn't
necessarily match the remote destination port, we can't associate errors
to the encapsulating tunnels with a socket lookup -- we need to blindly
try them instead. This means we don't even know if we are handling errors
for FoU or GUE without digging into the packets.

Hence, implement a single handler for both, one for IPv4 and one for IPv6,
that will check whether the packet that generated the ICMP error used a
direct IP encapsulation or if it had a GUE header, and send the error to
the matching protocol handler, if any.

net: Add sysctl to toggle early demux for tcp and udp

2017-03-24T20:17:07+00:00

Certain system process significant unconnected UDP workload.
It would be preferrable to disable UDP early demux for those systems
and enable it for TCP only.

By disabling UDP demux, we see these slight gains on an ARM64 system-
782 -> 788Mbps unconnected single stream UDPv4
633 -> 654Mbps unconnected UDPv4 different sources

The performance impact can change based on CPU architecure and cache
sizes. There will not much difference seen if entire UDP hash table
is in cache.

Both sysctls are enabled by default to preserve existing behavior.

v1->v2: Change function pointer instead of adding conditional as
suggested by Stephen.

v2->v3: Read once in callers to avoid issues due to compiler
optimizations. Also update commit message with the tests.

v3->v4: Store and use read once result instead of querying pointer
again incorrectly.

v4->v5: Refactor to avoid errors due to compilation with IPV6={m,n}

ipv4: Disallow non-namespace aware protocols to register.

2013-02-05T19:42:23+00:00

All in-tree ipv4 protocol implementations are now namespace
aware.  Therefore all the run-time checks are superfluous.

Reject registry of any non-namespace aware ipv4 protocol.
Eventually we'll remove prot->netns_ok and this registry
time check as well.
