Hi Leon, I checked the current tree and there are no drivers who support packet offload. Even for the mlx5 driver, it only supports crypto offload mode. If I miss anything, please let me know. Since the driver only requires the Security Association (SA) to perform the necessary transformations, policy information is not needed. Storing policy information, matching the policy and checking the if_id within the driver wouldn't provide much benefit. It would increase CPU and memory usage without a clear advantage. For all other suggestions, I totally agree with you. Thanks, Feng

You need to make sure that policy and SA has match in their selectors, and IMHO you can't add support to SA without adding same support to policy. > It would increase CPU and memory usage without a clear advantage. > For all other suggestions, I totally agree with you. > > Thanks, > Feng

What does that call return, incase of packet offload? My guess is that call is returning NULL and that is why Feng is trying hard code state here? I imagine the policy may not match because that policy has offload packet? May be this look up need to handle packet offload? > > > It would increase CPU and memory usage without a clear advantage. > > For all other suggestions, I totally agree with you. > > > > Thanks, > > Feng
Antony brought out an important function xfrm_lookup_with_ifid(), this function returns the next dst_entry. The xfrm_lookup_with_ifid() function utilizes xfrm_sk_policy_lookup() to find a matching policy based on the given if_id. The if_id checking is handled in it. Once the policy is found, xfrm_resolve_and_create_bundle() determines the correct Security Association (SA) and associates it with the destination entry (dst->xfrm). This SA information is then passed directly to the driver. Since the kernel has already performed the necessary if_id checks for policy, there's no need for the driver to duplicate this effort.

If the output packet got this far, dst is set in skb? And when the packet reach the driver dst = skb_dst(skb); dst->xfrm is the state? If this is the case why add state to skb as your patch proose? May be I am missing something in the packet path. > This SA information is then passed directly to the driver.

My guess was in packet offload policy look happens in the driver.

It ensures that if SW finds policy/SA, HW will find the same. Thanks
Based on current kernel implementation, the packet offload does match
policy and state on the TX side in the kernel. For the RX side, the
driver is responsible for the selector policy and SA match etc.
I added some logs in the kernel, and listed the kernel function call
flow as below for your reference, this is for TX side only.
(1) ip_output -> neighbor_output -> dev_queue_xmit ->
netdev_start_xmit -> ops->ndo_start_xmit -> xfrmi_xmit -> xfrmi_xmit2
(2) In the xfrmi_xmit2 { first call xfrm_lookup_with_ifid() to get
next destination(dst), then call dst_output() to send the packet,
the dst_output in fact is xfrm_output() }
(3) To trace xfrm_lookup_with_ifid() xfrm_lookup_with_ifid() ->
xfrm_bundle_lookup() ->
{ first call xfrm_policy_lookup() to find the policy, the
policy id is checked here.
Then call xfrm_resolve_and_create_bundle() to find the
SA and generate the next dst
return dst;
}
(4)To trace xfrm_output(), now we know the next dst, calls
xfrm_output to send the packet. xfrm_output() -> xfrm_output_resume()
->
{
first call xfrm_output_one() which goes to resume part
directly without packet transformation(this is special handling for
packet offload) but it calls skb_dst_pop to get final dst. This dst
has no xfrm(SA) so the driver can't access xfrm(SA) using skb_dst.
Then calls dst_output() with final dst, this will route
the packet to stack again, going through ip_output() etc to pass the
packet to the driver transmit function, and send out.
}
I did make a mistake on calling xfrm_sk_policy_lookup in the
xfrm_lookup_with_ifid function. In fact, it is NOT called.
Thanks,
Feng
