2021-01-07netstack: Refactor tcpip.Endpoint.ReadTing-Yu Wang
Read now takes a destination io.Writer, count, options. Keeping the method name Read, in contrast to the Write method. This enables: * direct transfer of views under VV * zero copy It also eliminates the need for sentry to keep a slice of view because userspace had requested a read that is smaller than the view returned, removing the complexity there. Read/Peek/ReadPacket are now consolidated together and some duplicate code is removed. PiperOrigin-RevId: 350636322
2020-10-05Fix IPv4 ICMP echo handler to copy optionsJulian Elischer
The IPv4 RFCs are specific (though obtuse) that an echo response packet needs to contain all the options from the echo request, much as if it been routed back to the sender, though apparently with a new TTL. They suggest copying the incoming packet header to achieve this so that is what this patch does. PiperOrigin-RevId: 335559176
2020-08-13Migrate to PacketHeader API for PacketBuffer.Ting-Yu Wang
Formerly, when a packet is constructed or parsed, all headers are set by the client code. This almost always involved prepending to pk.Header buffer or trimming pk.Data portion. This is known to prone to bugs, due to the complexity and number of the invariants assumed across netstack to maintain. In the new PacketHeader API, client will call Push()/Consume() method to construct/parse an outgoing/incoming packet. All invariants, such as slicing and trimming, are maintained by the API itself. NewPacketBuffer() is introduced to create new PacketBuffer. Zero value is no longer valid. PacketBuffer now assumes the packet is a concatenation of following portions: * LinkHeader * NetworkHeader * TransportHeader * Data Any of them could be empty, or zero-length.

2020-05-11Fix view.ToVectorisedView().Bhasker Hariharan
view.ToVectorisedView() now just returns an empty vectorised view if the view is of zero length. Earlier it would return a VectorisedView of zero length but with 1 empty view. This has been a source of bugs as lower layers don't expect zero length views in VectorisedViews. VectorisedView.AppendView() now is a no-op if the view being appended is of zero length.

2020-04-23Remove View.First() and View.RemoveFirst()Kevin Krakauer
These methods let users eaily break the VectorisedView abstraction, and allowed netstack to slip into pseudo-enforcement of the "all headers are in the first View" invariant. Removing them and replacing with PullUp(n) breaks this reliance and will make it easier to add iptables support and rework network buffer management. The new View.PullUp(n) method is low cost in the common case, when when all the headers fit in the first View. PiperOrigin-RevId: 308163542

2020-04-03Refactor software GSO code.Bhasker Hariharan
Software GSO implementation currently has a complicated code path with implicit assumptions that all packets to WritePackets carry same Data and it does this to avoid allocations on the path etc. But this makes it hard to reuse the WritePackets API. This change breaks all such assumptions by introducing a new Vectorised View API ReadToVV which can be used to cleanly split a VV into multiple independent VVs. Further this change also makes packet buffers linkable to form an intrusive list. This allows us to get rid of the array of packet buffers that are passed in the WritePackets API call and replace it with a list of packet buffers. While this code does introduce some more allocations in the benchmarks it doesn't cause any degradation. Updates #231 PiperOrigin-RevId: 304731742
2020-03-26Handle IPv6 Fragment & Routing extension headersGhanan Gowripalan
Enables the reassembly of fragmented IPv6 packets and handling of the Routing extension header with a Segments Left value of 0. Atomic fragments are handled as described in RFC 6946 to not interfere with "normal" fragment traffic. No specific routing header type is supported. Note, the stack does not yet support sending ICMPv6 error messages in response to IPv6 packets that cannot be handled/parsed. That will come in a later change (Issue #2211). Test: - header_test.TestIPv6RoutingExtHdr - header_test.TestIPv6FragmentExtHdr - header_test.TestIPv6ExtHdrIterErr - header_test.TestIPv6ExtHdrIter - ipv6_test.TestReceiveIPv6ExtHdrs - ipv6_test.TestReceiveIPv6Fragments RELNOTES: n/a PiperOrigin-RevId: 303189584

Makes it possible to avoid copying or allocating in cases where DeliverNetworkPacket (rx) needs to turn around and call WritePacket (tx) with its VectorisedView. Also removes the restriction on having VectorisedViews with multiple views in the write path. PiperOrigin-RevId: 211728717 Change-Id: Ie03a65ecb4e28bd15ebdb9c69f05eced18fdfcff
