2012-12-09vxlan: Add capability of Rx checksum offload for inner packetJoseph Gasparakis
This patch adds capability in vxlan to identify received checksummed inner packets and signal them to the upper layers of the stack. The driver needs to set the skb->encapsulation bit and also set the skb->ip_summed to CHECKSUM_UNNECESSARY. Signed-off-by: Joseph Gasparakis <joseph.gasparakis@intel.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2012-12-09vxlan: capture inner headers during encapsulationJoseph Gasparakis
Allow VXLAN to make use of Tx checksum offloading and Tx scatter-gather. The advantage to these two changes is that it also allows the VXLAN to make use of GSO.

2012-11-20add DOVE extensions for VXLANDavid Stevens
This patch provides extensions to VXLAN for supporting Distributed Overlay Virtual Ethernet (DOVE) networks. The patch includes: + a dove flag per VXLAN device to enable DOVE extensions + ARP reduction, whereby a bridge-connected VXLAN tunnel endpoint answers ARP requests from the local bridge on behalf of remote DOVE clients + route short-circuiting (aka L3 switching). Known destination IP addresses use the corresponding destination MAC address for switching rather than going to a (possibly remote) router first. + netlink notification messages for forwarding table and L3 switching misses Changes since v2 - combined bools into "u32 flags" - replaced loop with !is_zero_ether_addr() Signed-off-by: David L Stevens <dlstevens@us.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

2012-11-13vxlan: Update hard_header_len based on lowerdev when instantiating VXLANAlexander Duyck
In the event of a VXLAN device being linked to a device that has a hard_header_len greater than that of standard ethernet we could end up with the hard_header_len not being large enough for outgoing frames. In order to prevent this we should update the length when a lowerdev is provided.

2012-11-13vxlan: Fix error that was resulting in VXLAN MTU size being 10 bytes too largeAlexander Duyck
This change fixes an issue I found where VXLAN frames were fragmented when they were up to the VXLAN MTU size. I root caused the issue to the fact that the headroom was 4 + 20 + 8 + 8. This math doesn't appear to be correct because we are not inserting a VLAN header, but instead a 2nd Ethernet header. As such the math for the overhead should be 20 + 8 + 8 + 14 to account for the extra headers that are inserted for VXLAN.

2012-11-03vxlan: allow a user to set TTL valueVincent Bernat
"ip link add ... type vxlan ... ttl X" allows a user to set the TTL used by a VXLAN for encapsulation. The provided value was ignored by vxlan module and the default value of 1 was used when encapsulating multicast packets.

2012-10-11vxlan: fix receive checksum handlingstephen hemminger
Vxlan was trying to use postpull_rcsum to allow receive checksum offload to work on drivers using CHECKSUM_COMPLETE method. But this doesn't work correctly.

2012-10-11vxlan: allow configuring port rangestephen hemminger
VXLAN bases source UDP port based on flow to help the receiver to be able to load balance based on outer header flow. This patch restricts the port range to the normal UDP local ports, and allows overriding via configuration. It also uses jhash of Ethernet header when looking at flows with out know L3 header.
