18 | * dpif, the DataPath InterFace. | |
19 | * | |
20 | * In Open vSwitch terminology, a "datapath" is a flow-based software switch. | |
21 | * A datapath has no intelligence of its own. Rather, it relies entirely on | |
22 | * its client to set up flows. The datapath layer is core to the Open vSwitch | |
23 | * software switch: one could say, without much exaggeration, that everything | |
24 | * in ovs-vswitchd above dpif exists only to make the correct decisions | |
25 | * interacting with dpif. | |
26 | * | |
27 | * Typically, the client of a datapath is the software switch module in | |
28 | * "ovs-vswitchd", but other clients can be written. The "ovs-dpctl" utility | |
29 | * is also a (simple) client. | |
30 | * | |
31 | * | |
32 | * Overview | |
33 | * ======== | |
34 | * | |
35 | * The terms written in quotes below are defined in later sections. | |
36 | * | |
37 | * When a datapath "port" receives a packet, it extracts the headers (the | |
38 | * "flow"). If the datapath's "flow table" contains a "flow entry" whose flow | |
39 | * is the same as the packet's, then it executes the "actions" in the flow | |
40 | * entry and increments the flow's statistics. If there is no matching flow | |
41 | * entry, the datapath instead appends the packet to an "upcall" queue. | |
42 | * | |
43 | * | |
44 | * Ports | |
45 | * ===== | |
46 | * | |
47 | * A datapath has a set of ports that are analogous to the ports on an Ethernet | |
48 | * switch. At the datapath level, each port has the following information | |
49 | * associated with it: | |
50 | * | |
51 | * - A name, a short string that must be unique within the host. This is | |
52 | * typically a name that would be familiar to the system administrator, | |
53 | * e.g. "eth0" or "vif1.1", but it is otherwise arbitrary. | |
54 | * | |
55 | * - A 32-bit port number that must be unique within the datapath but is | |
56 | * otherwise arbitrary. The port number is the most important identifier | |
57 | * for a port in the datapath interface. | |
58 | * | |
59 | * - A type, a short string that identifies the kind of port. On a Linux | |
60 | * host, typical types are "system" (for a network device such as eth0), | |
61 | * "internal" (for a simulated port used to connect to the TCP/IP stack), | |
62 | * and "gre" (for a GRE tunnel). | |
63 | * | |
64 | * - A Netlink PID (see "Upcall Queuing and Ordering" below). | |
65 | * | |
66 | * The dpif interface has functions for adding and deleting ports. When a | |
67 | * datapath implements these (e.g. as the Linux and netdev datapaths do), then | |
68 | * Open vSwitch's ovs-vswitchd daemon can directly control what ports are used | |
69 | * for switching. Some datapaths might not implement them, or implement them | |
70 | * with restrictions on the types of ports that can be added or removed | |
71 | * (e.g. on ESX), on systems where port membership can only be changed by some | |
72 | * external entity. | |
73 | * | |
74 | * Each datapath must have a port, sometimes called the "local port", whose | |
75 | * name is the same as the datapath itself, with port number 0. The local port | |
76 | * cannot be deleted. | |
77 | * | |
78 | * Ports are available as "struct netdev"s. To obtain a "struct netdev *" for | |
79 | * a port named 'name' with type 'port_type', in a datapath of type | |
80 | * 'datapath_type', call netdev_open(name, dpif_port_open_type(datapath_type, | |
81 | * port_type). The netdev can be used to get and set important data related to | |
82 | * the port, such as: | |
83 | * | |
84 | * - MTU (netdev_get_mtu(), netdev_set_mtu()). | |
85 | * | |
86 | * - Ethernet address (netdev_get_etheraddr(), netdev_set_etheraddr()). | |
87 | * | |
88 | * - Statistics such as the number of packets and bytes transmitted and | |
89 | * received (netdev_get_stats()). | |
90 | * | |
91 | * - Carrier status (netdev_get_carrier()). | |
92 | * | |
93 | * - Speed (netdev_get_features()). | |
94 | * | |
95 | * - QoS queue configuration (netdev_get_queue(), netdev_set_queue() and | |
96 | * related functions.) | |
97 | * | |
98 | * - Arbitrary port-specific configuration parameters (netdev_get_config(), | |
99 | * netdev_set_config()). An example of such a parameter is the IP | |
100 | * endpoint for a GRE tunnel. | |
101 | * | |
102 | * | |
103 | * Flow Table | |
104 | * ========== | |
105 | * | |
106 | * The flow table is a hash table of "flow entries". Each flow entry contains: | |
107 | * | |
108 | * - A "flow", that is, a summary of the headers in an Ethernet packet. The | |
109 | * flow is the hash key and thus must be unique within the flow table. | |
110 | * Flows are fine-grained entities that include L2, L3, and L4 headers. A | |
111 | * single TCP connection consists of two flows, one in each direction. | |
112 | * | |
113 | * In Open vSwitch userspace, "struct flow" is the typical way to describe | |
114 | * a flow, but the datapath interface uses a different data format to | |
115 | * allow ABI forward- and backward-compatibility. datapath/README | |
116 | * describes the rationale and design. Refer to OVS_KEY_ATTR_* and | |
117 | * "struct ovs_key_*" in include/linux/openvswitch.h for details. | |
118 | * lib/odp-util.h defines several functions for working with these flows. | |
119 | * | |
120 | * (In case you are familiar with OpenFlow, datapath flows are analogous | |
121 | * to OpenFlow flow matches. The most important difference is that | |
122 | * OpenFlow allows fields to be wildcarded and prioritized, whereas a | |
123 | * datapath's flow table is a hash table so every flow must be | |
124 | * exact-match, thus without priorities.) | |
125 | * | |
126 | * - A list of "actions" that tell the datapath what to do with packets | |
127 | * within a flow. Some examples of actions are OVS_ACTION_ATTR_OUTPUT, | |
128 | * which transmits the packet out a port, and OVS_ACTION_ATTR_SET, which | |
129 | * modifies packet headers. Refer to OVS_ACTION_ATTR_* and "struct | |
130 | * ovs_action_*" in include/linux/openvswitch.h for details. | |
131 | * lib/odp-util.h defines several functions for working with datapath | |
132 | * actions. | |
133 | * | |
134 | * The actions list may be empty. This indicates that nothing should be | |
135 | * done to matching packets, that is, they should be dropped. | |
136 | * | |
137 | * (In case you are familiar with OpenFlow, datapath actions are analogous | |
138 | * to OpenFlow actions.) | |
139 | * | |
140 | * - Statistics: the number of packets and bytes that the flow has | |
141 | * processed, the last time that the flow processed a packet, and the | |
142 | * union of all the TCP flags in packets processed by the flow. (The | |
143 | * latter is 0 if the flow is not a TCP flow.) | |
144 | * | |
145 | * The datapath's client manages the flow table, primarily in reaction to | |
146 | * "upcalls" (see below). | |
147 | * | |
148 | * | |
149 | * Upcalls | |
150 | * ======= | |
151 | * | |
152 | * A datapath sometimes needs to notify its client that a packet was received. | |
153 | * The datapath mechanism to do this is called an "upcall". | |
154 | * | |
155 | * Upcalls are used in two situations: | |
156 | * | |
157 | * - When a packet is received, but there is no matching flow entry in its | |
158 | * flow table (a flow table "miss"), this causes an upcall of type | |
159 | * DPIF_UC_MISS. These are called "miss" upcalls. | |
160 | * | |
161 | * - A datapath action of type OVS_ACTION_ATTR_USERSPACE causes an upcall of | |
162 | * type DPIF_UC_ACTION. These are called "action" upcalls. | |
163 | * | |
164 | * An upcall contains an entire packet. There is no attempt to, e.g., copy | |
165 | * only as much of the packet as normally needed to make a forwarding decision. | |
166 | * Such an optimization is doable, but experimental prototypes showed it to be | |
167 | * of little benefit because an upcall typically contains the first packet of a | |
168 | * flow, which is usually short (e.g. a TCP SYN). Also, the entire packet can | |
169 | * sometimes really be needed. | |
170 | * | |
171 | * After a client reads a given upcall, the datapath is finished with it, that | |
172 | * is, the datapath doesn't maintain any lingering state past that point. | |
173 | * | |
174 | * The latency from the time that a packet arrives at a port to the time that | |
175 | * it is received from dpif_recv() is critical in some benchmarks. For | |
176 | * example, if this latency is 1 ms, then a netperf TCP_CRR test, which opens | |
177 | * and closes TCP connections one at a time as quickly as it can, cannot | |
178 | * possibly achieve more than 500 transactions per second, since every | |
179 | * connection consists of two flows with 1-ms latency to set up each one. | |
180 | * | |
181 | * To receive upcalls, a client has to enable them with dpif_recv_set(). A | |
182 | * datapath should generally support multiple clients at once (e.g. so that one | |
183 | * may run "ovs-dpctl show" or "ovs-dpctl dump-flows" while "ovs-vswitchd" is | |
184 | * also running) but need not support multiple clients enabling upcalls at | |
185 | * once. | |
186 | * | |
187 | * | |
188 | * Upcall Queuing and Ordering | |
189 | * --------------------------- | |
190 | * | |
191 | * The datapath's client reads upcalls one at a time by calling dpif_recv(). | |
192 | * When more than one upcall is pending, the order in which the datapath | |
193 | * presents upcalls to its client is important. The datapath's client does not | |
194 | * directly control this order, so the datapath implementer must take care | |
195 | * during design. | |
196 | * | |
197 | * The minimal behavior, suitable for initial testing of a datapath | |
198 | * implementation, is that all upcalls are appended to a single queue, which is | |
199 | * delivered to the client in order. | |
200 | * | |
201 | * The datapath should ensure that a high rate of upcalls from one particular | |
202 | * port cannot cause upcalls from other sources to be dropped or unreasonably | |
203 | * delayed. Otherwise, one port conducting a port scan or otherwise initiating | |
204 | * high-rate traffic spanning many flows could suppress other traffic. | |
205 | * Ideally, the datapath should present upcalls from each port in a "round | |
206 | * robin" manner, to ensure fairness. | |
207 | * | |
208 | * The client has no control over "miss" upcalls and no insight into the | |
209 | * datapath's implementation, so the datapath is entirely responsible for | |
210 | * queuing and delivering them. On the other hand, the datapath has | |
211 | * considerable freedom of implementation. One good approach is to maintain a | |
212 | * separate queue for each port, to prevent any given port's upcalls from | |
213 | * interfering with other ports' upcalls. If this is impractical, then another | |
214 | * reasonable choice is to maintain some fixed number of queues and assign each | |
215 | * port to one of them. Ports assigned to the same queue can then interfere | |
216 | * with each other, but not with ports assigned to different queues. Other | |
217 | * approaches are also possible. | |
218 | * | |
219 | * The client has some control over "action" upcalls: it can specify a 32-bit | |
220 | * "Netlink PID" as part of the action. This terminology comes from the Linux | |
221 | * datapath implementation, which uses a protocol called Netlink in which a PID | |
222 | * designates a particular socket and the upcall data is delivered to the | |
223 | * socket's receive queue. Generically, though, a Netlink PID identifies a | |
224 | * queue for upcalls. The basic requirements on the datapath are: | |
225 | * | |
226 | * - The datapath must provide a Netlink PID associated with each port. The | |
227 | * client can retrieve the PID with dpif_port_get_pid(). | |
228 | * | |
229 | * - The datapath must provide a "special" Netlink PID not associated with | |
230 | * any port. dpif_port_get_pid() also provides this PID. (ovs-vswitchd | |
231 | * uses this PID to queue special packets that must not be lost even if a | |
232 | * port is otherwise busy, such as packets used for tunnel monitoring.) | |
233 | * | |
234 | * The minimal behavior of dpif_port_get_pid() and the treatment of the Netlink | |
235 | * PID in "action" upcalls is that dpif_port_get_pid() returns a constant value | |
236 | * and all upcalls are appended to a single queue. | |
237 | * | |
238 | * The ideal behavior is: | |
239 | * | |
240 | * - Each port has a PID that identifies the queue used for "miss" upcalls | |
241 | * on that port. (Thus, if each port has its own queue for "miss" | |
242 | * upcalls, then each port has a different Netlink PID.) | |
243 | * | |
244 | * - "miss" upcalls for a given port and "action" upcalls that specify that | |
245 | * port's Netlink PID add their upcalls to the same queue. The upcalls | |
246 | * are delivered to the datapath's client in the order that the packets | |
247 | * were received, regardless of whether the upcalls are "miss" or "action" | |
248 | * upcalls. | |
249 | * | |
250 | * - Upcalls that specify the "special" Netlink PID are queued separately. | |
251 | * | |
252 | * | |
253 | * Packet Format | |
254 | * ============= | |
255 | * | |
256 | * The datapath interface works with packets in a particular form. This is the | |
257 | * form taken by packets received via upcalls (i.e. by dpif_recv()). Packets | |
258 | * supplied to the datapath for processing (i.e. to dpif_execute()) also take | |
259 | * this form. | |
260 | * | |
261 | * A VLAN tag is represented by an 802.1Q header. If the layer below the | |
262 | * datapath interface uses another representation, then the datapath interface | |
263 | * must perform conversion. | |
264 | * | |
265 | * The datapath interface requires all packets to fit within the MTU. Some | |
266 | * operating systems internally process packets larger than MTU, with features | |
267 | * such as TSO and UFO. When such a packet passes through the datapath | |
268 | * interface, it must be broken into multiple MTU or smaller sized packets for | |
269 | * presentation as upcalls. (This does not happen often, because an upcall | |
270 | * typically contains the first packet of a flow, which is usually short.) | |
271 | * | |
272 | * Some operating system TCP/IP stacks maintain packets in an unchecksummed or | |
273 | * partially checksummed state until transmission. The datapath interface | |
274 | * requires all host-generated packets to be fully checksummed (e.g. IP and TCP | |
275 | * checksums must be correct). On such an OS, the datapath interface must fill | |
276 | * in these checksums. | |
277 | * | |
278 | * Packets passed through the datapath interface must be at least 14 bytes | |
279 | * long, that is, they must have a complete Ethernet header. They are not | |
280 | * required to be padded to the minimum Ethernet length. | |
281 | * | |
282 | * | |
283 | * Typical Usage | |
284 | * ============= | |
285 | * | |
286 | * Typically, the client of a datapath begins by configuring the datapath with | |
287 | * a set of ports. Afterward, the client runs in a loop polling for upcalls to | |
288 | * arrive. | |
289 | * | |
290 | * For each upcall received, the client examines the enclosed packet and | |
291 | * figures out what should be done with it. For example, if the client | |
292 | * implements a MAC-learning switch, then it searches the forwarding database | |
293 | * for the packet's destination MAC and VLAN and determines the set of ports to | |
294 | * which it should be sent. In any case, the client composes a set of datapath | |
295 | * actions to properly dispatch the packet and then directs the datapath to | |
296 | * execute those actions on the packet (e.g. with dpif_execute()). | |
297 | * | |
298 | * Most of the time, the actions that the client executed on the packet apply | |
299 | * to every packet with the same flow. For example, the flow includes both | |
300 | * destination MAC and VLAN ID (and much more), so this is true for the | |
301 | * MAC-learning switch example above. In such a case, the client can also | |
302 | * direct the datapath to treat any further packets in the flow in the same | |
303 | * way, using dpif_flow_put() to add a new flow entry. | |
304 | * | |
305 | * Other tasks the client might need to perform, in addition to reacting to | |
306 | * upcalls, include: | |
307 | * | |
308 | * - Periodically polling flow statistics, perhaps to supply to its own | |
309 | * clients. | |
310 | * | |
311 | * - Deleting flow entries from the datapath that haven't been used | |
312 | * recently, to save memory. | |
313 | * | |
314 | * - Updating flow entries whose actions should change. For example, if a | |
315 | * MAC learning switch learns that a MAC has moved, then it must update | |
316 | * the actions of flow entries that sent packets to the MAC at its old | |
317 | * location. | |
318 | * | |
319 | * - Adding and removing ports to achieve a new configuration. | |

320 | * |
321 | * | |
322 | * Thread-safety | |
323 | * ============= | |
324 | * | |
325 | * Most of the dpif functions are fully thread-safe: they may be called from | |
326 | * any number of threads on the same or different dpif objects. The exceptions | |
327 | * are: | |
328 | * | |
329 | * - dpif_port_poll() and dpif_port_poll_wait() are conditionally | |
330 | * thread-safe: they may be called from different threads only on | |
331 | * different dpif objects. | |
332 | * | |
333 | * - Functions that operate on struct dpif_port_dump or struct | |
334 | * dpif_flow_dump are conditionally thread-safe with respect to those | |
335 | * objects. That is, one may dump ports or flows from any number of | |
336 | * threads at once, but each thread must use its own struct dpif_port_dump | |
337 | * or dpif_flow_dump. | |
