[PATCH net-next v3 0/5] Extend TC key support for Sparx5 IS2 VCAP

From: Steen Hegelund
Date: Mon Oct 31 2022 - 11:56:28 EST


This provides extended tc flower filter key support for the Sparx5 VCAP
functionality.

It builds on top of the initial IS2 VCAP support found in this series:

https://lore.kernel.org/all/20221020130904.1215072-1-steen.hegelund@xxxxxxxxxxxxx/

Overview:
=========

The added flower filter key (dissector) support is this:

- ipv4_addr (sip and dip)
- ipv6_addr (sip and dip)
- control (IPv4 fragments)
- portnum (tcp and udp port numbers)
- basic (L3 and L4 protocol)
- vlan (outer vlan tag info)
- tcp (tcp flags)
- ip (tos field)

The IS2 VCAP supports classified VLAN information which amounts to the
outer VLAN info in case of multiple tags.

Functionality:
==============

Before frames can match IS2 VCAP rules with e.g an IPv4 source address, the
IS2 VCAPs keyset configuration must include keyset that contains a IPv4
source address and this must be configured for the lookup/port/traffic-type
that you want to match on.

The Sparx5 IS2 VCAP has the following traffic types:

- Non-Ethernet frames
- IPv4 Unicast frames
- IPv4 Multicast frames
- IPv6 Unicast frames
- IPv6 Multicast frames
- ARP frames

So to cover IPv4 traffic the two IPv4 categories must be configured with a
keyset that contains IPv4 address information such as the
VCAP_KFS_IP4_TCP_UDP keyset.

The IPv4 and IPv6 traffic types are configured with useful default keysets,
in later series we will use the tc template functionality when we want to
change these defaults.

Delivery:
=========

This is current plan for delivering the full VCAP feature set of Sparx5:

Version History:
================
v3 Add some more details to the explanation in the commit message
about support for MAC_ETYPE keysets and "protocol all" as well as
the classified VLAN information. This is done to help testing the
feature.
No implementation changes in this version.

v2 Split one of the KUNIT tests into 3 tests to fix a kernel robot
build warning.
