From 16e6653c8259ca5383126e1c6bcf7fe062af87fc Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: =?utf8?q?Ond=C5=99ej=20Hlavat=C3=BD?= Date: Thu, 31 May 2018 23:21:04 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] ixgbe: fix parsing of TC actions for HW offload MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=utf8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit The previous code was optimistic, accepting the offload of whole action chain when there was a single known action (drop/redirect). This results in offloading a rule which should not be offloaded, because its behavior cannot be reproduced in the hardware. For example: $ tc filter add dev eno1 parent ffff: protocol ip \ u32 ht 800: order 1 match tcp src 42 FFFF \ action mirred egress mirror dev enp1s16 pipe \ drop The controller is unable to mirror the packet to a VF, but still offloads the rule by dropping the packet. Change the approach of the function to a pessimistic one, rejecting the chain when an unknown action is found. This is better suited for future extensions. Note that both recognized actions always return TC_ACT_SHOT, therefore it is safe to ignore actions behind them. Signed-off-by: Ondřej Hlavatý Signed-off-by: Jeff Kirsher Signed-off-by: David S.
