ofproto-dpif: Make it easier to credit statistics for resubmits.

Until now, crediting statistics to OpenFlow rules due to "resubmit" actions
has required setting up a "resubmit hook" with a callback function and
auxiliary data.  This commit makes it easier to do, by adding a member to
struct action_xlate_ctx that specifies statistics to credit to each
resubmitted rule.

This commit includes one small behavioral change as an optimization.
Previously, rule_execute() translated the rule twice: once to get the ODP
actions, then a second time after executing the ODP actions to credit
statistics to the rules.  After this commit, rule_execute() translates the
rule only once, crediting statistics as a side effect.  The difference only
becomes visible when executing the actions fails: previously the statistics
would not be incremented, after this commit they will be.  It is very
unusual for executing actions to fail (generally this indicates a bug) so
I'm not concerned about it.

12 years agonetlink: Postpone choosing sequence numbers until send time.
Ben Pfaff [Mon, 16 Apr 2012 23:01:01 +0000 (16:01 -0700)]
netlink: Postpone choosing sequence numbers until send time.

Choosing sequence numbers at time of creating a packet means that
nl_sock_transact_multiple() has to search for the sequence number
of a reply, because the sequence numbers of the requests aren't
necessarily sequential.  This commit makes it possible to avoid
the search, by deferring choice of sequence numbers until the
time that we send the packets.  It doesn't actually modify
nl_sock_transact_multiple(), which will happen in a later commit.

Previously, I was concerned about a theoretical race condition
described in a comment in the old versino of this code:

    This implementation uses sequence numbers that are unique
    process-wide, to avoid a hypothetical race: send request, close
    socket, open new socket that reuses the old socket's PID value,
    send request on new socket, receive reply from kernel to old
    socket but with same PID and sequence number.  (This race could be
    avoided other ways, e.g. by preventing PIDs from being quickly
    reused).

However, I no longer believe that this can be a real problem,
because Netlink operates synchronously.  The reply to a request
will always arrive before the socket can be closed and a new
socket opened with the old socket's PID.

12 years agoovsdb-idl: Simplify transaction retry.
Ben Pfaff [Tue, 27 Mar 2012 17:16:52 +0000 (10:16 -0700)]
ovsdb-idl: Simplify transaction retry.

Originally the IDL transaction state machine had a return value
TXN_TRY_AGAIN to signal the client to wait for a change in the database and
then retry its transaction.  However, this logic was incomplete, because
it was possible for the database to change before the reply to the
transaction RPC was received, in which case the client would wait for a
further change.  Commit 4fdfe5ccf84c (ovsdb-idl: Prevent occasional hang
when multiple database clients race.) fixed the problem by breaking
TXN_TRY_AGAIN into two status codes, TXN_AGAIN_WAIT that meant to wait for
a further change and TXN_AGAIN_NOW that meant that a change had already
occurred so try again immediately.

This is correct enough, but it is more complicated than necessary.  It is
simpler and just as correct to use a single "try again" status that
requires the client to wait for a change relative to the database contents
*before* the transaction was committed.  This commit makes that change.
It also changes ovsdb_idl_run()'s return type from bool to void because
its return type is hardly useful anymore.

flow: Add length check when retrieving TCP flags.

When collecting TCP flags we check that the IP header indicates that
a TCP header is present but not that the packet is actually long
enough to contain the header.  This adds a check to prevent reading
off the end of the packet.

In practice, this is only likely to result in reading of bad data and
not a crash due to the presence of struct skb_shared_info at the end
of the packet.
