ipv4: Add "offload" and "trap" indications to routes
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
When performing L3 offload, routes and nexthops are usually programmed
into two different tables in the underlying device. Therefore, the fact
that a nexthop resides in hardware does not necessarily mean that all
the associated routes also reside in hardware and vice-versa.

While the kernel can signal to user space the presence of a nexthop in
hardware (via 'RTNH_F_OFFLOAD'), it does not have a corresponding flag
for routes. In addition, the fact that a route resides in hardware does
not necessarily mean that the traffic is offloaded. For example,
unreachable routes (i.e., 'RTN_UNREACHABLE') are programmed to trap
packets to the CPU so that the kernel will be able to generate the
appropriate ICMP error packet.

This patch adds an "offload" and "trap" indications to IPv4 routes, so
that users will have better visibility into the offload process.

'struct fib_alias' is extended with two new fields that indicate if the
route resides in hardware or not and if it is offloading traffic from
the kernel or trapping packets to it. Note that the new fields are added
in the 6 bytes hole and therefore the struct still fits in a single
cache line [1].

Capable drivers are expected to invoke fib_alias_hw_flags_set() with the
route's key in order to set the flags.

The indications are dumped to user space via a new flags (i.e.,
'RTM_F_OFFLOAD' and 'RTM_F_TRAP') in the 'rtm_flags' field in the
ancillary header.

v2:
* Make use of 'struct fib_rt_info' in fib_alias_hw_flags_set()
