Subject: [PATCH iproute2/master] tc actions: store and dump correct length of user cookies
Date: Tue, 5 Sep 2017 13:06:24 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1504609584-20026-1-git-send-email-simon.horman@netronome.com> (raw)
Correct two errors which cancel each other out:
* Do not send twice the length of the actual provided by the user to the kernel
* Do not dump half the length of the cookie provided by the kernel
As the cookie is now stored in the kernel at its correct length rather
than double the that length cookies of up to the maximum size of 16 bytes
may now be stored rather than a maximum of half that length.
Output of dump is the same before and after this change,
but the data stored in the kernel is now exactly the cookie
rather than the cookie + as many trailing zeros.
Before:
# tc filter add dev eth0 protocol ip parent ffff: \
flower ip_proto udp action drop \
cookie 0123456789abcdef0123456789abcdef
RTNETLINK answers: Invalid argument
After:
# tc filter add dev eth0 protocol ip parent ffff: \
flower ip_proto udp action drop \
cookie 0123456789abcdef0123456789abcdef
# tc filter show dev eth0 ingress
eth_type ipv4
ip_proto udp
not_in_hw
action order 1: gact action drop
random type none pass val 0
index 1 ref 1 bind 1 installed 1 sec used 1 sec
Action statistics:
Sent 0 bytes 0 pkt (dropped 0, overlimits 0 requeues 0)
backlog 0b 0p requeues 0
cookie len 16 0123456789abcdef0123456789abcdef
Fixes: fd8b3d2c1b9b ("actions: Add support for user cookies")
