The NAT validation is similar (and based on) the existing conntrack
validation: when a dpif backer is created, we try to install a flow with
the ct_state NAT bits set. If the flow setup fails we assume that the
backer doesn't support NAT and we reject OpenFlow flows with a NAT
action or a match on the ct_state NAT bits.

This patch adds a new 128-bit metadata field to the connection tracking

Subsequent ct lookups with the table specified will expose this metadata
as the "ct_label" field in the flow.
For example, to allow new TCP connections from port 1->2 and only allow
established connections from port 2->1, and to associate a label with

This patch adds a new action and fields to OVS that allow connection
tracking to be performed. This support works in conjunction with the
Linux kernel support merged into the Linux-4.3 development cycle.
Packets have two possible states with respect to connection tracking:
Untracked packets have not previously passed through the connection
tracker, while tracked packets have previously been through the
connection tracker. For OpenFlow pipeline processing, untracked packets
can become tracked, and they will remain tracked until the end of the
pipeline. Tracked packets cannot become untracked.
Connections can be unknown, uncommitted, or committed. Packets which are
untracked have unknown connection state. To know the connection state,
the packet must become tracked. Uncommitted connections have no
connection state stored about them, so it is only possible for the
connection tracker to identify whether they are a new connection or
whether they are invalid. Committed connections have connection state
stored beyond the lifetime of the packet, which allows later packets in
the same connection to be identified as part of the same established
connection, or related to an existing connection - for instance ICMP
error responses.
The new 'ct' action transitions the packet from "untracked" to
"tracked" by sending this flow through the connection tracker.
The following parameters are supported initally:
- "commit": When commit is executed, the connection moves from
uncommitted state to committed state. This signals that information
about the connection should be stored beyond the lifetime of the
packet within the pipeline. This allows future packets in the same
connection to be recognized as part of the same "established" (est)
connection, as well as identifying packets in the reply (rpl)
direction, or packets related to an existing connection (rel).
- "zone=[u16|NXM]": Perform connection tracking in the zone specified.
Each zone is an independent connection tracking context. When the
"commit" parameter is used, the connection will only be committed in
the specified zone, and not in other zones. This is 0 by default.
- "table=NUMBER": Fork pipeline processing in two. The original instance
of the packet will continue processing the current actions list as an
untracked packet. An additional instance of the packet will be sent to
the connection tracker, which will be re-injected into the OpenFlow
pipeline to resume processing in the specified table, with the
ct_state and other ct match fields set. If the table is not specified,
then the packet is submitted to the connection tracker, but the
pipeline does not fork and the ct match fields are not populated. It
is strongly recommended to specify a table later than the current
table to prevent loops.
When the "table" option is used, the packet that continues processing in
the specified table will have the ct_state populated. The ct_state may
have any of the following flags set:
- Tracked (trk): Connection tracking has occurred.
- Reply (rpl): The flow is in the reply direction.
- Invalid (inv): The connection tracker couldn't identify the connection.
- New (new): This is the beginning of a new connection.
- Established (est): This is part of an already existing connection.
- Related (rel): This connection is related to an existing connection.
For more information, consult the ovs-ofctl(8) man pages.
Below is a simple example flow table to allow outbound TCP traffic from
port 1 and drop traffic from port 2 that was not initiated by port 1:

The kernel implementation of Geneve options stores the TLV option
data in the flow exactly as received, without any further parsing.
This is then translated to known options for the purposes of matching
on flow setup (which will then install a datapath flow in the form
the kernel is expecting).
The userspace implementation behaves a little bit differently - it
looks up known options as each packet is received. The reason for this
is there is a much tighter coupling between datapath and flow translation
and the representation is generally expected to be the same. This works
but it incurs work on a per-packet basis that could be done per-flow
instead.
This introduces a small translation step for Geneve packets between
datapath and flow lookup for the userspace datapath in order to
allow the same kind of processing that the kernel does. A side effect
of this is that unknown options are now shown when flows dumped via
ovs-appctl dpif/dump-flows, similar to the kernel.
There is a second benefit to this as well: for some operations it is
preferable to keep the options exactly as they were received on the wire,
which this enables. One example is that for packets that are executed from
ofproto-dpif-upcall to the datapath, this avoids the translation of
Geneve metadata. Since this conversion is potentially lossy (for unknown
options), keeping everything in the same format removes the possibility
of dropping options if the packet comes back up to userspace and the
Geneve option translation table has changed. To help with these types of
operations, most functions can understand both formats of data and seamlessly
do the right thing.

Packets are still sampled at ingress only, so the egress
tunnel and/or MPLS structures are only included when there is just 1 output
port. The actions are either provided by the datapath in the sample upcall
or looked up in the userspace cache. The former is preferred because it is
more reliable and does not present any new demands or constraints on the
userspace cache, however the code falls back on the userspace lookup so that
this solution can work with existing kernel datapath modules. If the lookup
fails it is not critical: the compiled user-action-cookie is still available
and provides the essential output port and output VLAN forwarding information
just as before.
The openvswitch actions can express almost any tunneling/mangling so the only
totally faithful representation would be to somehow encode the whole list of
flow actions in the sFlow output. However the standard sFlow tunnel structures
can express most common real-world scenarios, so in parsing the actions we
look for those and skip the encoding if we see anything unusual. For example,
a single set(tunnel()) or tnl_push() is interpreted, but if a second such
action is encountered then the egress tunnel reporting is suppressed.
The sFlow standard allows "best effort" encoding so that if a field is not
knowable or too onerous to look up then it can be left out. This is often
the case for the layer-4 source port or even the src ip address of a tunnel.
The assumption is that monitoring is enabled everywhere so a missing field
can typically be seen at ingress to the next switch in the path.
This patch also adds unit tests to check the sFlow encoding of set(tunnel()),
tnl_push() and push_mpls() actions.
The netlink attribute to request that actions be included in the upcall
from the datapath is inserted for sFlow sampling only. To make that option
be explicit would require further changes to the printing and parsing of
actions in lib/odp-util.c, and to scripts in the test suite.
Further enhancements to report on 802.1AD QinQ, 64-bit tunnel IDs, and NAT
transformations can follow in future patches that make only incremental
changes.

Several encapsulation formats have the concept of an 'OAM' bit
which typically is used with networking tracing tools to
distinguish test packets from real traffic. OVS already internally
has support for this, however, it doesn't do anything with it
and it also isn't exposed for controllers to use. This enables
support through OpenFlow.
There are several other tunnel flags which are consumed internally
by OVS. It's not clear that it makes sense to use them externally

The current support for Geneve in OVS is exactly equivalent to VXLAN:
it is possible to set and match on the VNI but not on any options
contained in the header. This patch enables the use of options.
The goal for Geneve support is not to add support for any particular option
but to allow end users or controllers to specify what they would like to
match. That is, the full range of Geneve's capabilities should be exposed
without modifying the code (the one exception being options that require
per-packet computation in the fast path).
The main issue with supporting Geneve options is how to integrate the
fields into the existing OpenFlow pipeline. All existing operations
are referred to by their NXM/OXM field name - matches, action generation,
arithmetic operations (i.e. tranfer to a register). However, the Geneve
option space is exactly the same as the OXM space, so a direct mapping
is not feasible. Instead, we create a pool of 64 NXMs that are then
dynamically mapped on Geneve option TLVs using OpenFlow. Once mapped,
these fields become first-class citizens in the OpenFlow pipeline.
An example of how to use Geneve options:
ovs-ofctl add-geneve-map br0 {class=0xffff,type=0,len=4}->tun_metadata0
ovs-ofctl add-flow br0 in_port=LOCAL,actions=set_field:0xffffffff->tun_metadata0,1
This will add a 4 bytes option (filled will all 1's) to all packets
coming from the LOCAL port and then send then out to port 1.
A limitation of this patch is that although the option table is specified
for a particular switch over OpenFlow, it is currently global to all
switches. This will be addressed in a future patch.

So far the compressed flow data in struct miniflow has been in 32-bit
words with a 63-bit map, allowing for a maximum size of struct flow of
252 bytes. With the forthcoming Geneve options this is not sufficient
any more.
This patch solves the problem by changing the miniflow data to 64-bit
words, doubling the flow max size to 504 bytes. Since the word size
is doubled, there is some loss in compression efficiency. To counter
this some of the flow fields have been reordered to keep related
fields together (e.g., the source and destination IP addresses share
the same 64-bit word).
This change should speed up flow data processing on 64-bit CPUs, which
may help counterbalance the impact of making the struct flow bigger in
the future.
Classifier lookup stage boundaries are also changed to 64-bit
alignment, as the current algorithm depends on each miniflow word to
not be split between ranges. This has resulted in new padding (part
of the 'mpls_lse' field).
The 'dp_hash' field is also moved to packet metadata to eliminate
otherwise needed padding there. This allows the L4 to fit into one
64-bit word, and also makes matches on 'dp_hash' more efficient as
misses can be found already on stage 1.

This patch modifies the dpif interface to allow flows to be manipulated
using a 128-bit identifier. This allows revalidator threads to perform
datapath operations faster, as they do not need to serialise the entire
flow key for operations like flow_get and flow_delete. In conjunction
with a future patch to simplify the dump interface, this provides a
significant performance benefit for revalidation.
When handlers assemble flow_put operations, they specify a unique
identifier (UFID) for each flow as it is passed down to the datapath to
be stored with the flow. The UFID is currently provided to handlers
by the dpif during upcall processing.
When revalidators assemble flow_get or flow_del operations, they may
specify the UFID for the flow along with the key. The dpif will decide
whether to send only the UFID to the datapath, or both the UFID and flow
key. The former is preferred for newer datapaths that support UFID,
while the latter is used for backwards compatibility.

Following patch adds support for userspace tunneling. Tunneling
needs three more component first is routing table which is configured by
caching kernel routes and second is ARP cache which build automatically
by snooping arp. And third is tunnel protocol table which list all
listening protocols which is populated by vswitchd as tunnel ports
are added. GRE and VXLAN protocol support is added in this patch.
Tunneling works as follows:
On packet receive vswitchd check if this packet is targeted to tunnel
port. If it is then vswitchd inserts tunnel pop action which pops
header and sends packet to tunnel port.
On packet xmit rather than generating Set tunnel action it generate
tunnel push action which has tunnel header data. datapath can use
tunnel-push action data to generate header for each packet and
forward this packet to output port. Since tunnel-push action
contains most of packet header vswitchd needs to lookup routing
table and arp table to build this action.

Userspace currently implements only support for basic version of

Currently netlink flow (and mask) recirc_id attribute is only

to work correctly, the interpretation of the missing recirc_id
depends on whether the datapath supports recirculation.
This patch remove the ambiguity of the meaning of missing recirc_id
attribute in netlink message. When recirc_id is non-zero, or when
it is not a wildcard match, both key and mask attributes are
serialized. On the other hand, when recirc_id is zero, and being
wildcarded, they are not serialized. A missing recirc_id key and
mask attribute thus should always be interpreted as wildcard,

Until now, OVS has expected that the datapath supports all the actions

a datapath might not support a given action:
- The datapath version is older than the userspace version, and the
action was introduced after the version of the datapath in use.
- The action is not considered important enough to implement as part of

attributes are displayed, including fully wildcarded attributes.
Otherwise, the fully wildcarded attributes are omitted for brevity.
Added -m option to "ovs-dpctl dump-flows" to enable verbose mode. It is
off by default.

Add a new function for converting a mask into a set of
OVS_KEY_ATTR* attributes. This will be useful in a future commit.

Until now, datapath ports and openflow ports were both represented by
unsigned integers of various sizes. With implicit conversions, etc., it is
easy to mix them up and use one where the other is expected. This commit
creates two typedefs, ofp_port_t and odp_port_t. Both of these two types
are marked by "__attribute__((bitwise))" so that sparse can be used to
detect any misuse.

Added support to allow mega flow specified and displayed. ovs-dpctl tool
is mainly used as debugging tool.
This patch also implements the low level user space routines to send
and receive mega flow netlink messages. Those netlink suppor
routines are required for forthcoming user space mega flow patches.
Added a unit test to test parsing and display of mega flows.
Ethan contributed the ovs-dpctl mega flow output function.

A number of use-cases weren't handled properly when determining what can
be wildcarded for megaflows. This commit both catches additional fields
that cannot be wildcarded and loosens a few other cases.

Rename tun_key_from_attr() as odp_tun_key_from_attr() and export it.
This is in preparation for calling this function outside of odp-util.c.

It's no longer possible for a single datapath flow to be slow
pathed for two different reasons. This patch updates the code to
reflect this fact (marginally simplifying it).

Before this patch, when in band control was enabled, every DHCP
packet had to be sent to userspace to calculate it's actions.
Those DHCP packets intended for the local port would have a special
action added to ensure they actually make it there. This
unnecessarily complicates the code, so this patch takes a slightly
different approach. When in-band is enabled, *all* DHCP packets
must be sent to the local port. This guarantees that
xlate_actions() returns the same result every time for a given
flow.

Before this patch, datapath keys with ODP_FIT_TO_LITTLE, would be
assigned subfacets and installed in the kernel with a SLOW_MATCH
slow path reason. This is problematic, because these flow keys
can't be reliable converted into a 'struct flow' thus breaking a
fundamental assumption of ofproto-dpif. This patch circumvents the
issue by skipping facet creation for these flows altogether. This
approach has the added benefit of simplifying the code for future
patches.
