[net-next PATCH v2 0/5] net_sched: Add support for IFE action

[Jamal Hadi Salim]

From: Jamal Hadi Salim <jhs@mojatatu.com>


As agreed at netconf in Seville, here's the patch finally (1 year
was just too long to wait).
Described in netdev01 paper:
            "Distributing Linux Traffic Control Classifier-Action Subsystem"
             Authors: Jamal Hadi Salim and Damascene M. Joachimpillai

The original motivation and deployment of this work was to horizontally
scale packet processing at scope of a chasis or rack. This means one
could take a tc policy and split it across machines connected over
L2. The paper refers to this as "pipeline stage indexing". Other
use cases which evolved out of the original intent include but are
not limited to carrying OAM information, carrying exception handling
metadata, carrying programmed authentication and authorization information,
encapsulating programmed compliance information, service IDs etc.
Read the referenced paper for more details.

The architecture allows for incremental updates for new metadatum support
to cover different use cases.
This patch set includes support for basic skb metadatum.
Followup patches will have more examples of metadata and other features.

Jamal Hadi Salim (5):
  introduce IFE action
  Support to encoding decoding skb mark on IFE action
  Support to encoding decoding skb prio on IFE action
  Support to encoding decoding skb hashid on IFE action
  Support to encoding decoding skb queue map on IFE action

[net-next PATCH v2 1/5] introduce IFE action

[Jamal Hadi Salim]

From: Jamal Hadi Salim <jhs@mojatatu.com>

This action allows for a sending side to encapsulate arbitrary metadata
which is decapsulated by the receiving end.
The sender runs in encoding mode and the receiver in decode mode.
Both sender and receiver must specify the same ethertype.
At some point we hope to have a registered ethertype and we'll
then provide a default so the user doesnt have to specify it.
For now we enforce the user specify it.

Lets show example usage where we encode icmp from a sender towards
a receiver with an skbmark of 17; both sender and receiver use
ethertype of 0xdead to interop.

YYYY: Lets start with Receiver-side policy config:
xxx: add an ingress qdisc
sudo tc qdisc add dev $ETH ingress

xxx: any packets with ethertype 0xdead will be subjected to ife decoding
xxx: we then restart the classification so we can match on icmp at prio 3
sudo $TC filter add dev $ETH parent ffff: prio 2 protocol 0xdead \
u32 match u32 0 0 flowid 1:1 \
action ife decode reclassify

xxx: on restarting the classification from above if it was an icmp
xxx: packet, then match it here and continue to the next rule at prio 4
xxx: which will match based on skb mark of 17
sudo tc filter add dev $ETH parent ffff: prio 3 protocol ip \
u32 match ip protocol 1 0xff flowid 1:1 \
action continue

xxx: match on skbmark of 0x11 (decimal 17) and accept
sudo tc filter add dev $ETH parent ffff: prio 4 protocol ip \
handle 0x11 fw flowid 1:1 \
action ok

xxx: Lets show the decoding policy
sudo tc -s filter ls dev $ETH parent ffff: protocol 0xdead
xxx:
filter pref 2 u32
filter pref 2 u32 fh 800: ht divisor 1
filter pref 2 u32 fh 800::800 order 2048 key ht 800 bkt 0 flowid 1:1  (rule hit 0 success 0)
  match 00000000/00000000 at 0 (success 0 )
        action order 1: ife decode action reclassify
         index 1 ref 1 bind 1 installed 14 sec used 14 sec
         type: 0x0
         Metadata: allow mark allow hash allow prio allow qmap
        Action statistics:
        Sent 0 bytes 0 pkt (dropped 0, overlimits 0 requeues 0)
        backlog 0b 0p requeues 0
xxx:
Observe that above lists all metadatum it can decode. Typically these
submodules will already be compiled into a monolithic kernel or
loaded as modules

YYYY: Lets show the sender side now ..

xxx: Add an egress qdisc on the sender netdev
sudo tc qdisc add dev $ETH root handle 1: prio
xxx:
xxx: Match all icmp packets to 192.168.122.237/24, then
xxx: tag the packet with skb mark of decimal 17, then
xxx: Encode it with:
xxx:	ethertype 0xdead
xxx:	add skb->mark to whitelist of metadatum to send
xxx:	rewrite target dst MAC address to 02:15:15:15:15:15
xxx:
sudo $TC filter add dev $ETH parent 1: protocol ip prio 10  u32 \
match ip dst 192.168.122.237/24 \
match ip protocol 1 0xff \
flowid 1:2 \
action skbedit mark 17 \
action ife encode \
type 0xDEAD \
allow mark \
dst 02:15:15:15:15:15

xxx: Lets show the encoding policy
sudo tc -s filter ls dev $ETH parent 1: protocol ip
xxx:
filter pref 10 u32
filter pref 10 u32 fh 800: ht divisor 1
filter pref 10 u32 fh 800::800 order 2048 key ht 800 bkt 0 flowid 1:2  (rule hit 0 success 0)
  match c0a87aed/ffffffff at 16 (success 0 )
  match 00010000/00ff0000 at 8 (success 0 )

	action order 1:  skbedit mark 17
	 index 6 ref 1 bind 1
 	Action statistics:
	Sent 0 bytes 0 pkt (dropped 0, overlimits 0 requeues 0)
	backlog 0b 0p requeues 0

	action order 2: ife encode action pipe
	 index 3 ref 1 bind 1
	 dst MAC: 02:15:15:15:15:15 type: 0xDEAD
 	 Metadata: allow mark
 	Action statistics:
	Sent 0 bytes 0 pkt (dropped 0, overlimits 0 requeues 0)
	backlog 0b 0p requeues 0
xxx:

test by sending ping from sender to destination

On a conceptual level, as this is an L2 encap with TLVs, why not having
a normal device driver for this like we have in other cases that would
encode/decode the meta data itself?

Why does IFE_META_MAX need to be configurable as a module parameter?

Shouldn't the core kernel be in charge of the IFE_META_*?

netdevs dont scale for large number of policies. See why ipsec which
at one point was implemented using a netdev and why xfrm eventually
was chosen as the way forward. Or look at the recent lwt
effort.
If i was to implement this as a netdev - I would have to either
have actions to redirect to it or plumb it on top of parent
or child devices. The main point is i am extending the tc
graph; it doesnt make sense for me to create a device just
for that when i could implement it as yet another action.
And the most important reason of all: I like to implement it
as an action;->

I struggled with that earlier.
I cant think of a good way to limit the number of metadata
the kernel allows for decoding without putting an upper bound.
In order to allow people to write kernel modules without worrying
about what is currently is hardcoded in the header file the
only approach i could think of was to allow this number to be
reset.
I have some discovery code i took out - will submit later
which looks at these sorts of parameters.

jamal

Sure, I'm just saying that it could conceptionally be similar to the
collect metadata idea just on L2 in your case. The encoding/decoding
and transport of the information is actually not overly tc specific
at least from the code that's shown so far, just a thought.

My question was rather: should the kernel enforce the IDs and only
allow what the kernel dictates (and not in/out of tree modules)? If
yes, then there would be no need for a module parameter (and the
module param should be avoided in any case).

TC offers more flexibility than netdev, but on the other hand, TC
actions sit too deep in TC, you know, netdev -> qdisc -> filter -> action...

I suspect the answer to that question is no and thus IMHO a netdev would be
nice to have rather than compelling.

With regards to overhead of netdevs: I think that could be mitigated to
some extent by using LWT or some other metadata-based approach to allow a
single netdev to be use by multiple tc action instances.

We actually have a use case where we offload this thing into
an embedded NIC.

In any case it doesnt make much sense to use a netdev for reasons i
specified. Just like it doesnt make sense when i want a policy which
pushes or pops vlans or vxlans to use netdevs either.
Yes it quacks like a duck(i.e has receive) and walks like a duck(has
stats) but it looks like an ostrich;->

Maybe i should just take it out for now and assume whatever is
in the kernel are the only allowed metadata.

No need to initi it since list_add_tail() is just one line below.

Sounds like this should be in a separated function.

Yes. This code has been around since then. Actually earlier than that
running. But i formatted it for kernel inclusion in about first week
of January. Dave asked me to wait for the ethertype to get it in.
The IETF still hasnt come through a year later and so i re-submitted
with no default ethertype. I think 2015 is deserving here, no?

Magic number;-> I will add a comment.
It is a TLV that includes 4 bytes. I am going to wait for
comments to settle then make an update.

It tries to load a metadata kernel module and vets (or validates)

You know what - i will take this thing out. Daniel doesnt like it

I thought it should be always the time when you submit the code, but
you are the author you have the right to make it whatever you want... ;)

... NLA_BINARY with len means: max length. But there's nothing
that checks a min length on this, so you potentially access out
of bounds since everything <= ETH_ALEN is allowed in your case.

Maybe try to make this lockless in the fast path? Otherwise placing
this on ingress / egress (f.e. clsact) doesn't really scale.

Modern git tells you about white spaces - maybe i didnt stare long
enough ;-> I will use the accessor in next update.

Let me think about it. Likely it will be subsequent patches - I just

Yeah, NLA_BINARY seems to be a bit of a misleading name. We should
probably audit, if there are more such users already in the tree.

Yes, I mean one of the key motivation was "[...] to horizontally scale
packet processing at scope of a chasis or rack [...]". So for people
who don't have that NIC with embedded Cavium processor, they might
already hit scalability issues for encode/decode right there.

At some point in the past (maybe a year ago?) I went through and

By adding more processing points horizontally. Please read the paper;
I think we are getting to a point where this discussion is no longer
productive.

A lock on a policy that already matches is not a serious
scaling problem that you need to offload to an embedded NIC.
Do note the point here is to scale by adding more machines.
And this shit is deployed and has proven it does scale.

[net-next PATCH v2 2/5] Support to encoding decoding skb mark on IFE action

[Jamal Hadi Salim]

From: Jamal Hadi Salim <jhs@mojatatu.com>

Example usage:
Set the skb using skbedit then allow it to be encoded

sudo tc qdisc add dev $ETH root handle 1: prio
sudo tc filter add dev $ETH parent 1: protocol ip prio 10 \
u32 match ip protocol 1 0xff flowid 1:2 \
action skbedit mark 17 \
action ife encode \
allow mark \
dst 02:15:15:15:15:15

Note: You dont need the skbedit action if you are already encoding the
skb mark earlier. A zero skb mark will not be allowed

Alternative hard code static mark of 0x12 every time the filter matches

sudo $TC filter add dev $ETH parent 1: protocol ip prio 10 \
u32 match ip protocol 1 0xff flowid 1:2 \
action ife encode \
type 0xDEAD \
use mark 0x12 \
dst 02:15:15:15:15:15

[net-next PATCH v2 3/5] Support to encoding decoding skb prio on IFE action

[Jamal Hadi Salim]

From: Jamal Hadi Salim <jhs@mojatatu.com>

    Example usage:
    Set the skb priority using skbedit then allow it to be encoded

    sudo tc qdisc add dev $ETH root handle 1: prio
    sudo tc filter add dev $ETH parent 1: protocol ip prio 10 \
    u32 match ip protocol 1 0xff flowid 1:2 \
    action skbedit prio 17 \
    action ife encode \
    allow prio \
    dst 02:15:15:15:15:15

    Note: You dont need the skbedit action if you are already encoding the
    skb priority earlier. A zero skb priority will not be sent

    Alternative hard code static priority of decimal 33 (unlike skbedit)
    then mark of 0x12 every time the filter matches

    sudo $TC filter add dev $ETH parent 1: protocol ip prio 10 \
    u32 match ip protocol 1 0xff flowid 1:2 \
    action ife encode \
    type 0xDEAD \
    use prio 33 \
    use mark 0x12 \
    dst 02:15:15:15:15:15

[net-next PATCH v2 5/5] Support to encoding decoding skb queue map on IFE action

[Jamal Hadi Salim]

From: Jamal Hadi Salim <jhs@mojatatu.com>

hard code static value of 10 for qmap
mark of 12
prio of 13
and hashid of 11

sudo tc filter add dev $ETH parent 1: protocol ip prio 10 \
u32 match ip protocol 1 0xff flowid 1:2 \
action ife encode \
type 0xDEAD \
use mark 12 \
use prio 13 \
use hashid 11 \
use qmap 10 \
dst 02:15:15:15:15:15

Note: If you try to use skbedit to change inherit passed queue mapping
it may not work out of the box.
You need to do the following (to quote John Fastabend):
".. disable XPS and get sk_tx_queue() to return -1. This is because
XPS and socket mappings have a higher precedence in queue selection."
