ovsdb-idlc: Constify 'char **'.

Update the logic used in constify() to add const to a 'char **' while
still excluding all other cases of more than one level of indirection.

This results in adding const to a parameter of a generated setter
function where we're generally passing in array of constant strings.
As a result, this patch includes the other necessary fixes to the code

ofproto/bond: Fix a race condition in updating post recirculation rules

When updating post recirc rules, rule management requires calls to
hmap APIs, which requires proper locking to ensure mutual exclsion in
accessing the hmap internal data structure. The locking currently is
missing from the output_normal() xlate path, thus causing

Ben Pfaff [Thu, 12 Feb 2015 07:34:50 +0000 (23:34 -0800)]
mac-learning: Implement per-port MAC learning fairness.

In "MAC flooding", an attacker transmits an overwhelming number of frames
with unique Ethernet source address on a switch port.  The goal is to
force the switch to evict all useful MAC learning table entries, so that
its behavior degenerates to that of a hub, flooding all traffic.  In turn,
that allows an attacker to eavesdrop on the traffic of other hosts attached
to the switch, with all the risks that that entails.

Before this commit, the Open vSwitch "normal" action that implements its
standalone switch behavior (and that can be used by OpenFlow controllers
as well) was vulnerable to MAC flooding attacks.  This commit fixes the
problem by implementing per-port fairness for MAC table entries: when
the MAC table is at its maximum size, MAC table eviction always deletes an
entry from the port with the most entries.  Thus, MAC entries will never
be evicted from ports with only a few entries if a port with a huge number
of entries exists.

Controllers could introduce their own MAC flooding vulnerabilities into
OVS.  For a controller that adds destination MAC based flows to an OpenFlow
flow table as a reaction to "packet-in" events, such a bug, if it exists,
would be in the controller code itself and would need to be fixed in the
controller.  For a controller that relies on the Open vSwitch "learn"
action to add destination MAC based flows, Open vSwitch has existing
support for eviction policy similar to that implemented in this commit
through the "groups" column in the Flow_Table table documented in
ovs-vswitchd.conf.db(5); we recommend that users of "learn" not already
familiar with eviction groups to read that documentation.

In addition to implementation of per-port MAC learning fairness,
this commit includes some closely related changes:

    - Access to client-provided "port" data in struct mac_entry
      is now abstracted through helper functions, which makes it
      easier to ensure that the per-port data structures are maintained
      consistently.

    - The mac_learning_changed() function, which had become trivial,
      vestigial, and confusing, was removed.  Its functionality was folded
      into the new function mac_entry_set_port().

    - Many comments were added and improved; there had been a lot of
      comment rot in previous versions.

    In the vxlan transmit path there is no need to reference the socket

    Implements supports for the Group Policy VXLAN extension [0] to provide
    a lightweight and simple security label mechanism across network peers
    based on VXLAN. The security context and associated metadata is mapped

    using SECMARK, to implement ACLs directly with nftables, iptables, OVS,
    tc, etc.

    The group membership is defined by the lower 16 bits of skb->mark, the
    upper 16 bits are used for flags.

    SELinux allows to manage label to secure local resources. However,
    distributed applications require ACLs to implemented across hosts. This
    is typically achieved by matching on L2-L4 fields to identify the
    original sending host and process on the receiver. On top of that,
    netlabel and specifically CIPSO [1] allow to map security contexts to
    universal labels.  However, netlabel and CIPSO are relatively complex.
    This patch provides a lightweight alternative for overlay network
    environments with a trusted underlay. No additional control protocol
    is required.

    Backwards compatibility:
    A VXLAN-GBP socket can receive standard VXLAN frames and will assign
    the default group 0x0000 to such frames. A Linux VXLAN socket will
    drop VXLAN-GBP  frames. The extension is therefore disabled by default
    and needs to be specifically enabled:

       ip link add [...] type vxlan [...] gbp

    In a mixed environment with VXLAN and VXLAN-GBP sockets, the GBP socket
    must run on a separate port number.

    Examples:
     iptables:

vlog: Fix "/dev/log" test

commit 7905aae3fc1633c2c44c8fdb9e9d3a3d6e63439b
("vlog: Don't fail syslog initialization in chroot.")
uses os.path.isfile("/dev/log"), which tests if the given path
is a regular file, to see if syslog can be usable.

However, /dev/log is not a regular file for platforms I looked at.
    * On Ubuntu 14.04 and CentOS 6.5, /dev/log is a socket
    * On NetBSD-6, /dev/log is a symlink to a socket

Replace the test with os.path.exists() so that it can work
as intended for these platforms.

datapath-windows: Solved BSOD when loading an activated extension

If the OVS extension was previously enabled and the driver unloaded,
when the driver is loaded again a BSOD is triggered.

This happens because the OVS extension registers its FilterXxx routines
to NDIS, by calling NdisFRegisterFilterDriver, before performing all
the necessary initialization. Because drivers that call
NdisFRegisterFilterDriver must be prepared for an immediate call to any
of their FilterXxx functions.

The BSOD is triggered because the FilterAttach routine, OvsExtAttach,
tries to acquire the control lock, when the lock is not yet initialized.
This happens because the FilterAttach is called before the driver
finishes initialization, in OvsInit().

The solution is to perform all necessary initialization before
registering OVS FilterXxx routines.

If device object creation fails, all allocated resources during init
phase are released by calling OvsCleanup and NdisFDeregisterFilterDriver
functions.

9 years agodpif: Use separate OVS_PACKET_ATTR_PROBE for packet messges

dpif: Use separate OVS_PACKET_ATTR_PROBE for packet messges

User space is currently sending a OVS_FLOW_ATTR_PROBE for both flow
and packet messages. This leads to an out-of-bounds access in
ovs_packet_cmd_execute() because OVS_FLOW_ATTR_PROBE >
OVS_PACKET_ATTR_MAX.

Introduce a new OVS_PACKET_ATTR_PROBE with the same numeric value
as OVS_FLOW_ATTR_PROBE to grow the range of accepted packet attributes
while maintaining binary compatibility with existing OVS binaries.

Fixes: 9233ce ("datapath: Add support for OVS_FLOW_ATTR_PROBE.")

test-atomic: Stop testing when running slow.

When the test suite is run on an OS with 1 core (e.g., a VM with one
core assigned to it), some of the atomic memory model tests take a
long time, with the effect that the test seems stuck.

This patch stops these tests after one second and only fails the test
if there has not been any significant progress, allowing the test to
pass also when running only with one core.
