Introduce SW acceleration for IPIP tunnels in the netfilter flowtable infrastructure. This series introduces basic infrastructure to accelerate other tunnel types (e.g. IP6IP6).
--- Changes in v9: - Fixed IPIP tunnel offloading when VLAN encapsulation is enabled. - Add IPIP tunnel over vlan self-test - Remove wrong filed from flow_offload_tuple key - Cosmetics - Link to v8: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20251023-nf-flowtable-ipip-v8-0-5d5d8595c730@kerne...
Changes in v8: - Rebase on top of the following series (not yet applied) https://patchwork.ozlabs.org/project/netfilter-devel/list/?series=477081 - Link to v7: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20251021-nf-flowtable-ipip-v7-0-a45214896106@kerne...
Changes in v7: - Introduce sw acceleration for tx path of IPIP tunnels - Rely on exact match during flowtable entry lookup - Fix typos - Link to v6: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20250818-nf-flowtable-ipip-v6-0-eda90442739c@kerne...
Changes in v6: - Rebase on top of nf-next main branch - Link to v5: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20250721-nf-flowtable-ipip-v5-0-0865af9e58c6@kerne...
Changes in v5: - Rely on __ipv4_addr_hash() to compute the hash used as encap ID - Remove unnecessary pskb_may_pull() in nf_flow_tuple_encap() - Add nf_flow_ip4_ecanp_pop utility routine - Link to v4: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20250718-nf-flowtable-ipip-v4-0-f8bb1c18b986@kerne...
Changes in v4: - Use the hash value of the saddr, daddr and protocol of outer IP header as encapsulation id. - Link to v3: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20250703-nf-flowtable-ipip-v3-0-880afd319b9f@kerne...
Changes in v3: - Add outer IP header sanity checks - target nf-next tree instead of net-next - Link to v2: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20250627-nf-flowtable-ipip-v2-0-c713003ce75b@kerne...
Changes in v2: - Introduce IPIP flowtable selftest - Link to v1: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20250623-nf-flowtable-ipip-v1-1-2853596e3941@kerne...
