cover IPVS: SIP Persistence Engine

This patch series adds load-balancing of UDP SIP based on Call-ID to IPVS as well as a frame-work for extending IPVS to handle alternate persistence requirements.

REVISIONS

This is "patch v1" of this series, which addresses a few minor problems, as annotated on a per-patch basis, since the initial "rfc" posting. Internally there were 4 rfc versions, 0.1, 0.2, 0.3 and 0.4, some of the notes for some of the patches reflect those versions.

OVERVIEW

The approach that I have taken is what I call persistence engines. The basic idea being that you can provide a module to LVS that alters the way that it handles connection templates, which are at the core of persistence. In particular, an additional key can be added, and any of the normal IP address, port and protocol information can either be used or ignored.

In the case of the SIP persistence engine, the only persistence engine, all the keys used by the default persistence behaviour are used and the callid is added as an extra key. I originally intended to ignore the cip, but this can optionally be done by setting the persistence mask (-M) to 0.0.0.0 while allowing the flexibility of other mask values.

It is envisaged that the SIP persistence engine will be used in conjunction with one-packet scheduling. I'm interested to hear if that doesn't fit your needs.

CONFIGURATION

A persistence engine is associated with a virtual service (as are schedulers). I have added the --pe option to the ivpsadm -A and -E commands to allow the persistence engine of a virtual service to be added, changed, or deleted.

e.g. ipvsadm -A -u 10.4.3.192:5060 -p 60 -M 0.0.0.0 -o --pe sip

There are no other configuration parameters at this time.

RUNNING

When a connection template is created, if its virtual service has a persistence engine, then the persistence engine can add an extra key to the connection template. For the SIP module this is the callid. More generically, it is known as "pe data". And both the name of the persistence engine, "pe name", and "pe data" can be viewed in /proc/net/ip_vs_conn and by passing the --persistent-conn option to ipvsadm -Lc.

e.g.

# ipvsadm -Lcn --persistent-conn
UDP 00:38  UDP         10.4.3.0:0         10.4.3.192:5060    127.0.0.1:5060 sip 193373839

Here we see a single persistence template (cport is 0), which has been handled by the sip persistence engine. The pe data (callid) is 193373839.

In the case where the persistence engine can't match a packet for some reason, the connection will fall back to the normal persistence handling. This seems reasonable, as that if the packet ought to be dropped, iptables could be used.

A limited amount of debugging information has been added which can be enabled using a value of 9 or greater in /proc/sys/net/ipv4/vs/debug_level

CODE AVAILABILITY

The kernel patches (13) are available in git as the pe-0.4 branch of
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/horms/lvs-test-2.6.git

The ipvsadm patches (2) are available in git as the pe-0.4 branch of
git://github.com/horms/ipvsadm-test.git

I will post the ipvsadm patches separately

The motivation for this is for it to be used by LVS as per subsequent patches.

* Patrick McHardy suggested changing word_len to check for the next newline or whitespace. But I believe this is incorrect. For example '#' would be permitted but it is invalid in a word according to RFC3261.

In general NULL arguments aren't passed by the few callers that exist, so don't test for them.

The exception is to make passing NULL to ip_vs_unbind_scheduler() a noop.

PATCH 8/12 IPVS: Add persistence engine data to /proc/net/ip_vs_conn

In reply to Simon Horman

This shouldn't break compatibility with userspace as the new data is at the end of the line.

I have confirmed that this doesn't break ipvsadm, the main (only?) user-space user of this data.

* Jan Engelhardt suggested using netlink to do this, but it seems like overkill to me. I'm willing to be convinced otherwise.

PATCH 9/12 IPVS: management of persistence engine modules

In reply to Simon Horman

This is based heavily on the scheduler management code

v1
* As suggested by Stephen Hemminger
- Convert __ip_vs_pe_lock from a rwlock to a spinlock.
This code isn't performance-critical, so there is no need for RCU.
- Rename __ip_vs_pe_lock as ip_vs_pe_lock
* Stephen also suggested open-coding ip_vs_{un,}bind_pe()
as they are very short. But I would prefer to keep them as they are used along side ip_vs_{un,}bind_scheduler which are too long to be open-coded.

v0.4
* Export register_ip_vs_pe and unregister_ip_vs_pe
* Use one line comment format for one line comments.
* Only use at most one blank line consecutively

PATCH 11/12 IPVS: Fallback if persistence engine fails

In reply to Simon Horman

Fall back to normal persistence handling if the persistence engine fails to recognise a packet.

This way, at least the packet will go somewhere.

It is envisaged that iptables could be used to block packets such if this is not desired although nf_conntrack_sip would likely need to be enhanced first.

PATCH 12/12 IPVS: sip persistence engine

In reply to Simon Horman

Add the SIP callid as a key for persistence.

This allows multiple connections from the same IP address to be differentiated on the basis of the callid.

When used in conjunction with the persistence mask, it allows connections from different IP addresses to be aggregated on the basis of the callid.

It is envisaged that a persistence mask of 0.0.0.0 will be a useful setting. That is, ignore the source IP address when checking for persistence.

It is envisaged that this option will be used in conjunction with one-packet scheduling.

This only works with UDP and cannot be made to work with TCP within the current framework.

v1
* Use buf[] instead of poiter arithmetic in ip_vs_dbg_callid() As suggested by Jan Engelhardt

This patch series adds load-balancing of UDP SIP based on Call-ID to IPVS as well as a frame-work for extending IPVS to handle alternate persistence requirements.

REVISIONS

This is "patch v1" of this series, which addresses a few minor problems, as annotated on a per-patch basis, since the initial "rfc" posting. Internally there were 4 rfc versions, 0.1, 0.2, 0.3 and 0.4, some of the notes for some of the patches reflect those versions.

OVERVIEW

The approach that I have taken is what I call persistence engines. The basic idea being that you can provide a module to LVS that alters the way that it handles connection templates, which are at the core of persistence. In particular, an additional key can be added, and any of the normal IP address, port and protocol information can either be used or ignored.

In the case of the SIP persistence engine, the only persistence engine, all the keys used by the default persistence behaviour are used and the callid is added as an extra key. I originally intended to ignore the cip, but this can optionally be done by setting the persistence mask (-M) to 0.0.0.0 while allowing the flexibility of other mask values.

It is envisaged that the SIP persistence engine will be used in conjunction with one-packet scheduling. I'm interested to hear if that doesn't fit your needs.

CONFIGURATION

A persistence engine is associated with a virtual service (as are schedulers). I have added the --pe option to the ivpsadm -A and -E commands to allow the persistence engine of a virtual service to be added, changed, or deleted.

e.g. ipvsadm -A -u 10.4.3.192:5060 -p 60 -M 0.0.0.0 -o --pe sip

There are no other configuration parameters at this time.

RUNNING

When a connection template is created, if its virtual service has a persistence engine, then the persistence engine can add an extra key to the connection template. For the SIP module this is the callid. More generically, it is known as "pe data". And both the name of the persistence engine, "pe name", and "pe data" can be viewed in /proc/net/ip_vs_conn and by passing the --persistent-conn option to ipvsadm -Lc.

e.g.

# ipvsadm -Lcn --persistent-conn
UDP 00:38  UDP         10.4.3.0:0         10.4.3.192:5060    127.0.0.1:5060 sip 193373839

Here we see a single persistence template (cport is 0), which has been handled by the sip persistence engine. The pe data (callid) is 193373839.

In the case where the persistence engine can't match a packet for some reason, the connection will fall back to the normal persistence handling. This seems reasonable, as that if the packet ought to be dropped, iptables could be used.

A limited amount of debugging information has been added which can be enabled using a value of 9 or greater in /proc/sys/net/ipv4/vs/debug_level
