openvswitch: make skb->csum consistent with rest of networking stack.

2013-06-14T22:09:12Z

Following patch keeps skb->csum correct across ovs. Signed-off-by: Pravin B Shelar Signed-off-by: Jesse Gross

openvswitch: Unify vport error stats handling.

2013-06-14T22:09:10Z

Following patch changes vport->send return type so that vport layer can do error accounting. Signed-off-by: Pravin B Shelar Signed-off-by: Jesse Gross

openvswitch: Remove unneeded ovs_netdev_get_ifindex()

2013-04-30T04:19:11Z

The only user is get_dpifindex(), no need to redirect via the port operations. Signed-off-by: Thomas Graf Signed-off-by: David S. Miller

openvswitch: Simplify datapath locking.

2013-04-15T21:38:40Z

Currently OVS uses combination of genl and rtnl lock to protect datapath state. This was done due to networking stack locking. But this has complicated locking and there are few lock ordering issues with new tunneling protocols. Following patch simplifies locking by introducing new ovs mutex and now this lock is used to protect entire ovs state. Signed-off-by: Pravin B Shelar Signed-off-by: Jesse Gross

openvswitch: remove some useless comments

2013-02-23T01:02:49Z

These comments are useless in upstream kernel. Cc: David S. Miller Cc: Jesse Gross Signed-off-by: Cong Wang Signed-off-by: Jesse Gross

openvswitch: Move LRO check from transmit to receive.

2013-01-22T07:57:26Z

The check for LRO packets was incorrectly put in the transmit path instead of on receive. Since this check is supposed to protect OVS (and other parts of the system) from packets that it cannot handle it is obviously not useful on egress. Therefore, this commit moves it back to the receive side. The primary problem that this caused is upcalls to userspace tried to segment the packet even though no segmentation information is available. This would later cause NULL pointer dereferences when skb_gso_segment() did nothing. Signed-off-by: Jesse Gross

openvswitch: Use RCU callback when detaching netdevices.

2012-11-28T22:04:34Z

Currently, each time a device is detached from an OVS datapath we call synchronize RCU before freeing associated data structures. However, if a bridge is deleted (which detaches all ports) when many devices are connected then there can be a long delay. This switches to use call_rcu() to group the cost together.

openvswitch: Print device when warning about over MTU packets.

2012-10-30T22:48:48Z

If an attempt is made to transmit a packet that is over the device's MTU then we log it using the datapath's name. However, it is much more helpful to use the device name instead. Signed-off-by: Jesse Gross

openvswitch: Add support for network namespaces.

2012-08-22T21:48:55Z

Following patch adds support for network namespace to openvswitch. Since it must release devices when namespaces are destroyed, a side effect of this patch is that the module no longer keeps a refcount but instead cleans up any state when it is unloaded.
