[PATCH RFC 0/3] define Verbs flow steering specification filter for GRE and MPLSoGRE tunnels

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



This series intention is to allow verbs application to classify and
steer ingress packets of type GRE tunnels and MPLS-over-GRE tunnels to
a RAW PACKET QP.

The series defines the GRE header flow filter, the MPLS header flow
filter and a ibv_flow create flag to allow header ordering
structuring.

The classification filter ordering, allows the application to define a
very precise network header structure, this is a must for representing
many of the encapsulation tunnel protocols.
Specifically MPLS header can be placed over ETH, over IP, over GRE,
over UDP, so it does not fit into a specific header layer by
definition alone.
