[ Upstream commit 40a9994f2fbddf299655073be947e9cfc57dfdf1 ]
The 'NTF_USE' flag can be used by user space to refresh FDB entries so that they will not age out. Currently, the VXLAN driver implements it by refreshing the 'used' field in the FDB entry as this is the field according to which FDB entries are aged out.
Subsequent patches will switch the VXLAN driver to age out entries based on the 'updated' field. Prepare for this change by refreshing the 'updated' field upon 'NTF_USE'. This is consistent with the bridge driver's FDB:
# ip link add name br1 up type bridge # ip link add name swp1 master br1 up type dummy # bridge fdb add 00:11:22:33:44:55 dev swp1 master dynamic vlan 1 # sleep 10 # bridge fdb replace 00:11:22:33:44:55 dev swp1 master dynamic vlan 1 # bridge -s -j fdb get 00:11:22:33:44:55 br br1 vlan 1 | jq '.[]["updated"]' 10 # sleep 10 # bridge fdb replace 00:11:22:33:44:55 dev swp1 master use dynamic vlan 1 # bridge -s -j fdb get 00:11:22:33:44:55 br br1 vlan 1 | jq '.[]["updated"]' 0
Before:
# ip link add name vx1 up type vxlan id 10010 dstport 4789 # bridge fdb add 00:11:22:33:44:55 dev vx1 self dynamic dst 198.51.100.1 # sleep 10 # bridge fdb replace 00:11:22:33:44:55 dev vx1 self dynamic dst 198.51.100.1 # bridge -s -j -p fdb get 00:11:22:33:44:55 br vx1 self | jq '.[]["updated"]' 10 # sleep 10 # bridge fdb replace 00:11:22:33:44:55 dev vx1 self use dynamic dst 198.51.100.1 # bridge -s -j -p fdb get 00:11:22:33:44:55 br vx1 self | jq '.[]["updated"]' 20
After:
# ip link add name vx1 up type vxlan id 10010 dstport 4789 # bridge fdb add 00:11:22:33:44:55 dev vx1 self dynamic dst 198.51.100.1 # sleep 10 # bridge fdb replace 00:11:22:33:44:55 dev vx1 self dynamic dst 198.51.100.1 # bridge -s -j -p fdb get 00:11:22:33:44:55 br vx1 self | jq '.[]["updated"]' 10 # sleep 10 # bridge fdb replace 00:11:22:33:44:55 dev vx1 self use dynamic dst 198.51.100.1 # bridge -s -j -p fdb get 00:11:22:33:44:55 br vx1 self | jq '.[]["updated"]' 0
