PATCH 1/3 skb_partial_csum_set

Implement skb_partial_csum_set, for setting partial csums on untrusted packets.

Use it in virtio_net (replacing buggy version there), it's also going to be used by TAP for partial csum support.

PATCH 2/3 virtio: Net header needs gso_hdr_len

It's far easier to deal with GSO if we don't have to parse the packet to figure out the header length. Add the field to the virtio_net_hdr struct (and fix the spaces that somehow crept in there).

PATCH 3/3 tun/tap GSO/partial csum support

This implements partial checksum and GSO support for tun/tap.

We use the virtio_net_hdr: it is an ABI already and designed to encapsulate such metadata as GSO and partial checksums.

lguest performance (160MB sendfile, worst/best/avg, 20 runs):

	Before: 5.06/3.39/3.82
	After:  4.69/0.84/2.84

Note that the way tun works, you have to use the TUNSETIFF ioctl to set this if you want to detect older kernels which don't have support.

Questions:
1) Should we rename/move virtio_net_hdr to something more generic?
2) Is this the right way to build a paged skb from user pages?
3) Do we need more checking for invalid GSO fields?

PATCH 3/3 tun/tap GSO/partial csum support

In reply to Rusty Russell

This implements partial checksum and GSO support for tun/tap.

We use the virtio_net_hdr: it is an ABI already and designed to encapsulate such metadata as GSO and partial checksums.

lguest performance (160MB sendfile, worst/best/avg, 20 runs):

	Before: 5.06/3.39/3.82
	After:  4.69/0.84/2.84

Note that the way tun works, you have to use the TUNSETIFF ioctl to set this if you want to detect older kernels which don't have support.

Questions:
1) Should we rename/move virtio_net_hdr to something more generic?
2) Is this the right way to build a paged skb from user pages?
3) Do we need more checking for invalid GSO fields?

It's far easier to deal with GSO if we don't have to parse the packet to figure out the header length. Add the field to the virtio_net_hdr struct (and fix the spaces that somehow crept in there).

Actually now that I've tried your test program I can see that this field exists not because of GSO, but because of SG. It tells you how many bytes you want to put in the skb head as opposed to the frag array.

So this field is fine with me as long as it is named as such to avoid confusion since it really has nothing to do with GSO as you also need it for SG with large MTUs.

I think this is more flexible than the Xen approach where this is essentially hard-coded to 64 bytes.

Yes, I took it out after your comments, then realized I needed it and put it back.

Hmm, how about just "hdr_len" rather than "gso_hdr_len"?

It's far easier to deal with GSO if we don't have to parse the packet to figure out the header length. Add the field to the virtio_net_hdr struct (and fix the spaces that somehow crept in there).

Why do we need this? When receiving GSO packets from an untrusted source the network stack will fill in the transport header offset after verifying that the headers are sane.

Thanks for clarifying; it simplifies things.

Actually now that I've tried your test program I can see that this field exists not because of GSO, but because of SG. It tells you how many bytes you want to put in the skb head as opposed to the frag array.

Yes, I took it out after your comments, then realized I needed it and put it back.

So this field is fine with me as long as it is named as such to avoid confusion since it really has nothing to do with GSO as you also need it for SG with large MTUs.

Hmm, how about just "hdr_len" rather than "gso_hdr_len"?

Thanks,
Rusty.

Implement skb_partial_csum_set, for setting partial csums on untrusted packets.

Use it in virtio_net (replacing buggy version there), it's also going to be used by TAP for partial csum support.

Looks fine to me.

If you like I can merge this into my net-2.6.25 tree, or alternatively if it makes your life easier you then you can handle it yourself.
