In the netdev datapath, packets arriving over a tunnel are processed by more than one flow. For example a packet that should be decapsulated and forwarded to another port is processed by two flows: 1. in_port=<PF>, outer-header matches, dst-port=4789 (VXLAN), actions:tnl_pop(vxlan_sys_4789). 2. in_port=vxlan_sys_4789, tunnel matches (VNI for example), inner-header matches, actions: vm1.In order to offload such a multi-flow processing path, a multi-table HW model is used. Flow #1 matches are offloaded as is, but tnl_pop is translated to MARK and JUMP to a tnl-port table actions. Flow #2 is offloaded to that tnl-port table, its tunnel matches are translated to outer-header matches, followed by the inner-header ones. The actions start with an implicit DECAP action followed by the flow's actions. The DECAP is done in flow #2. If it was done in flow #1, the outer headers of the packets would have been lost, and they could not have been matched in flow #2. Furthermore, once the HW processing path is composed of a multi table processing, there is a need to handle a case where the processing starts in HW, but is not completed in HW. For example, only flow #1 is offloaded while flow #2 doesn't exist. For that, the MARK value set in the tnl_pop action is received in SW, the packet is recovered by the mapped vport, and processing continues in SW. As vports are virtual and cannot have rte_flows, offloading a vport generates rte_flows for every PF in the system, as we cannot know from which one the packets arrive from. This series adds support for IPv6, tunnel push actions, and the multi-table model for the decap processing. v1 Travis passed: https://eur03.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Ftravis-ci.org%2Felibritstein%2FOVS%2Fbuilds%2F639484233&data=02%7C01%7Celibr%40mellanox.com%7C5995f26af0ba4ae7470c08d79dbaac7b%7Ca652971c7d2e4d9ba6a4d149256f461b%7C0%7C0%7C637151297392981653&sdata=BvwPjOndhz4uzuwAmqJMWjiqi%2B02Yn7obWLvDMf9fQ4%3D&reserved=0 Eli Britstein (14): dpif-netdev: Add mega ufid in flow add log netdev-offload-dpdk: Remove pre-validate of patterns function netdev-offload-dpdk: Add IPv6 pattern matching netdev-offload-dpdk: Support offload of clone tnl_push/output actions netdev-offload-dpdk: Support tnl/push using vxlan encap attribute netdev-offload: Don't use zero flow mark netdev-offload-dpdk: Introduce map APIs for table id and miss context netdev-offload-dpdk: Implement HW miss packet recover for vport netdev-offload-dpdk: Refactor disassociate ufid function netdev-offload-dpdk: Support tunnel pop action netdev-offload-dpdk: Implement flow dump create/destroy APIs netdev-dpdk: Getter function for dpdk devargs API netdev-dpdk: Introduce get netdev by devargs function netdev-dpdk-offload: Add vxlan pattern matching function Ilya Maximets (4): netdev: Allow storing dpif type into netdev structure. netdev-offload: Use dpif type instead of class. netdev-offload: Allow offloading to netdev without ifindex. netdev-offload: Disallow offloading to unrelated tunneling vports.
