2019-03-22acl-plugin: get rid of a separate "count" field in the linear acl structAndrew Yourtchenko1-1/+0
Long time ago, the linear array of rules in the ACL structure was not a vector. Now it is, so get rid of the extraneous "count" member. Do so in a manner that would ease potential the MP-safe manipulation of ACL rules in the future.

2018-11-22acl-plugin: optimize hash memory usage + fix the startup config parsing for ↵Andrew Yourtchenko1-1/+1
memory sizes [VPP-1502] In a couple of places vec_add1()-style was repeatedly called in a loop for smallish vectors where the number of additions was known in advance. With a test with large number of ACEs these numbers contribute to heap fragmentation noticeably. Minimize the number of allocations by preallocating the known size and then resetting the length accordingly, and then calling vec_add1() Also unify the parsing of the memory-related startup config parameters.

2018-09-25acl-plugin: optimize session idle timer checksAndrew Yourtchenko1-0/+8
This commit adds explicit signaling from a non-owning thread to the owning thread to restart the session timer as necessary. Consequently, we now can sweep the session lists at their respective timeouts, rather than sweeping all the lists at the pace of the shortest timeout value, just taking care to wake up if the session requeue to a different list results in needing to wake up earlier.

applied ACLs The partition_split() did not increment the refcount when using a mask type index, thus subsequent modifications potentially resulted in double frees and in the best case immediate crash, in the worst case delayed crash in another place.

2018-06-27acl-plugin: tm: add tuplemerge algorithm for relaxing the hashtable masksAndrew Yourtchenko1-0/+7
Slightly refactored from the initial implementation of the TupleMerge [1] algorithm by Valerio Bruschi (valerio.bruschi@telecom-paristech.fr) [1] James Daly, Eric Torng "TupleMerge: Building Online Packet Classifiers by Omitting Bits", In Proc. IEEE ICCCN 2017, pp. 1-10 Also add startup parameters to turn on/off the algorithm ("use tuple merge 1/0"), and a startup parameter to be able to tweak the split threshold ("tuple merge split threshold N"), the default value of the split threshold is 39 as per paper, but some more tuning might be necessary to find the best value. This change, alongside with the optimizations which avoid extra lookups, significantly reduces the slowdown on the ClassBench generated ACLs, which are supposed to resemble realistic ACLs seen in use in the field.

- instantiate the per-use mask type entry for a given hash ACE this prepares to adding tuplemerge where the applied ACE may have a different mask type due to relaxing of the tuples - store the vector of the colliding rules for linear lookups rather than traversing the linked list. - store the lowest rule index for a given mask type inside the structure. This allows to skip looking up at the later mask types if we already matched an entry that is in front of the very first entry in the new candidate mask type, thus saving a worthless hash table lookup. - use a vector of mask type indices rather than bitmap, in the sorted order (by construction) of ascending lowest rule index - this allows to terminate the lookups early. - adapt the debug cli outputs accordingly to show the data - propagate the is_ip6 into the inner calls Change-Id: I7a67b271e66785c6eab738b632b432d5886a0a8a Signed-off-by: Andrew Yourtchenko <ayourtch@gmail.com>
2018-06-20acl-plugin: acl-as-a-service: VPP-1248: fix the error if exports.h included ↵Andrew Yourtchenko1-8/+0
in more than one C file Including the exports.h from multiple .c files belonging to a single plugin results in an error. Rework the approach to require the table of function pointers to be filled in by the initialization function. Since the inline functions are compiled in the "caller" context, there is no knowledge about the acl_main structure used by the ACL plugin. To help with that, the signature of inline functions is slightly different, taking the p_acl_main pointer as the first parameter. That pointer is filled into the .p_acl_main field of the method table during the initialization - since the calling of non-inline variants would have required filling the method table, this should give minimal headaches during the use and switch between the two methods.

2018-03-30acl-plugin: implement an optional session reclassification when ACL is ↵Andrew Yourtchenko1-0/+9
(re-)applied There were several discussions in which users would expect the sessions to be deleted if the new policy after the change does not permit them. There is no right or wrong answer to this question - it is a policy decision. This patch implements an idea to approach this. It uses a per-interface-per-direction counter to designate a "policy epoch" - a period of unchanging rulesets. The moment one removes or adds an ACL applied to an interface, this counter increments. The newly created connections inherit the current policy epoch in a given direction. Likewise, this counter increments if anyone updates an ACL applied to an interface. There is also a new (so far hidden) CLI "set acl-plugin reclassify-sessions [0|1]" (with default being 0) which allows to enable the checking of the existing sessions against the current policy epoch in a given direction. The session is not verified unless there is traffic hitting that session *in the direction of the policy creation* - if the epoch has changed, the session is deleted and within the same processing cycle is evaluated against the ACL rule base and recreated - thus, it should allow traffic-driven session state refresh without affecting the connectivity for the existing sessions. If the packet is coming in the direction opposite to which the session was initially created, the state adjustment is never done, because doing so generically is not really possible without diving too deep into the special cases, which may or may not work.

2018-02-08acl-plugin: add whitelisted ethertype mode (VPP-1163)Andrew Yourtchenko1-0/+6
Currently, ACL plugin largely does not care about the ethertypes other than 0x0800 (IPv4) and 0x86dd (IPv6), the only exception being 0x0806 (ARP), which is dealt with by the MACIP ACLs. The other ethertypes in L2 mode are just let through. This adds a new API message acl_interface_set_etype_whitelist, which allows to flip the mode of a given interface into "ethertype whitelist mode": the caller of this message must supply the two lists (inbound and outbound) of the ethertypes that are to be permitted, the rest of the ethertypes are dropped. The whitelisting for a given interface and direction takes effect only when a policy ACL is also applied. This operates on the same classifier node as the one used for dispatching the policy ACL, thus, if one wishes for most of the reasonable IPv4 deployments to continue to operate within the whitelist mode, they must permit ARP ethertype (0x0806) The empty list for a given direction resets the processing to allow the unknown ethertypes. So, if one wants to just permit the IPv4 and IPv6 and nothing else, one can add their ethertypes to the whitelist. Add the "show acl-plugin interface" corresponding outputs about the whitelists, vat command, and unittests.

This is the second patch, using the new functionality from the change 10002 in order to implement the egress filtering on the MACIP ACLs. This adds an action "2" which means "add also egress filtering rules for this MACIP ACL. The reason for having the two choices is that the egress filtering really takes care of a fairly corner case scenario, and I am not convinced that always adding the performance cost of the egress lookup check is worth it.

2017-08-08acl-plugin: rework the optimization 7383, fortify acl-plugin memory behavior ↵Andrew Yourtchenko1-0/+6
(VPP-910) The further prolonged testing from testbed that reported VPP-910 has uncovered a couple of deeper issues with optimization from 7384, and the usage of subscripts rather than vec_elt_at_index() allowed to hide a couple of further errors in the code. Also, the current acl-plugin behavior of using the global heap for its dynamic data is problematic - it makes the troubleshooting much harder by potentially spreading the problem around. Based on this experience, this commits makes a few changes to fix the issues seen, also improving the serviceability of the acl-plugin code for the future: - Use separate mheaps for any ACL-related control plane operations and separate for the hash lookup datastructures, to compartmentalize any memory-related issues for the ACL plugin. - Ensure vec_elt_at_index() usage throughout the hash_lookup.c file. - Use vectors rather than raw memory for storing the "ordinary" ACL rules. - Rework the optimization from 7384 to use a separate tail pointer rather than overloading the "prev" field. - Make get_session_ptr() more conservative and adjust is_valid_session_ptr accordingly Change-Id: Ifda85193f361de5ed3782a4acd39622bd33c5830 Signed-off-by: Andrew Yourtchenko <ayourtch@gmail.com> (cherry picked from commit bd9c5ffe39e9ce61db95d74d150e07d738f24da1)

2017-06-19acl-plugin: bihash-based ACL lookupAndrew Yourtchenko1-0/+30
Add a bihash-based ACL lookup mechanism and make it a new default. This changes the time required to lookup a 5-tuple match from O(total_N_entries) to O(total_N_mask_types), where "mask type" is an overall mask on the 5-tuple required to represent an ACE. For testing/comparison there is a temporary debug CLI "set acl-plugin use-hash-acl-matching {0|1}", which, when set to 0, makes the plugin use the "old" linear lookup, and when set to 1, makes it use the hash-based lookup. Based on the discussions on vpp-dev mailing list, prevent assigning the ACL index to an interface, when the ACL with that index is not defined, also prevent deleting an ACL if that ACL is applied. Also, for the easier debugging of the state, there are new debug CLI commands to see the ACL plugin state at several layers: "show acl-plugin acl [index N]" - show a high-level ACL representation, used for the linear lookup and as a base for building the hashtable-based lookup. Also shows if a given ACL is applied somewhere. "show acl-plugin interface [sw_if_index N]" - show which interfaces have which ACL(s) applied. "show acl-plugin tables" - a lower-level debug command used to see the state of all of the related data structures at once. There are specifiers possible, which make for a more focused and maybe augmented output: "show acl-plugin tables acl [index N]" show the "bitmask-ready" representations of the ACLs, we well as the mask types and their associated indices. "show acl-plutin tables mask" show the derived mask types and their indices only. "show acl-plugin tables applied [sw_if_index N]" show the table of all of the ACEs applied for a given sw_if_index or all interfaces. "show acl-plugin tables hash [verbose N]" show the 48x8 bihash used for the ACL lookup. Change-Id: I89fff051424cb44bcb189e3cee04c1b8f76efc28 Signed-off-by: Andrew Yourtchenko <ayourtch@gmail.com>
2017-06-15acl-plugin: store sessions in a single hash table instead of a per-interfaceAndrew Yourtchenko1-3/+6
A bihash-per-interface is convenient, but turns out tricky difficult from the maintenance standpoint with the large number of interfaces. This patch makes the sessions reside in a single hash table for all the interfaces, adding the lower 16 bit of sw_if_index as part of the key into the previously unused space. There is a tradeoff, that a session with an identical 5-tuple and the same sw_if_index modulo 65536 will match on either of the interfaces. The probability of that is deemed sufficiently small to not worry about it. In case it still happens before the heat death of the universe, there is a clib_warning and the colliding packet will be dropped, at which point we will need to bump the hash key size by another u64, but rather not pay the cost of doing that right now.

(VPP-682) This fixes the previously-implicit "drop all non-first fragments" behavior to be more in line with security rules: a non-first fragment is treated for the purposes of matching the ACL as a packet with the port match succeeding. This allows to change the behavior to permit the fragmented packets for the default "permit specific rules" ruleset, but also gives the flexibility to block the non-initial fragments by inserting into the begining a bogus rule which would deny the L4 traffic. Also, add a knob which allows to potentially turn this behavior off in case of a dire need (and revert to dropping all non-initial fragments), via a debug CLI.

2017-03-03VPP-651: Ensure sw_if_index to node mapping for L2 output path is only done ↵Andrew Yourtchenko1-3/+2
via l2output_main.next_nodes Before this commit, several output features that happen to be the last in the list of features to be executed, send the packets directly to <interfaceName>-output. To do this, they use l2_output_dispatch, which builds a list of sw_if_index to next index mappings. When interfaces are deleted and the new interfaces are created, these mappings become stale, and cause the packets being sent to wrong interface output nodes. This patch (thanks John Lo for the brilliant idea!) adds a feature node "output", whose sole purpose is dispatching the packets to the correct interface output nodes. To do that, it uses the l2output_main.next_nodes, which is already taken care of for the case of the sw_if_index reuse, so this makes the dependent features all work correctly. Since this changes the packet path, for the features that were always the last ones it has triggered a side problem of the output feat_next_node_index not being properly initalized. These two users are l2-output-classify node and the output nodes belonging to the acl-plugin. For the first one the less invasive fix is just to initialize that field. For the acl-plugin nodes, rewrite the affected part of the code to use feat_bitmap_get_next_node_index since this is essentially what the conditional in l2_output_dispatch does, and fix the compiler warnings generated. This fix was first made in stable/1701 under commit e7dcee4027854b0ad076101471afdfff67eb9011.

This patch replaces requirement for vlib_plugin_register function in the plugin so file and introduces new macro: VLIB_PLUGIN_REGISTER () = { .version = "version string", .version_required = "requred version", .default_disabled = 1, .early_init = "early_init_function_name", }; Plugin will nor be loaded if .default_disabled is set to 1 unless explicitely enabled in startup.conf. If .verstion_required is set, plugin will not be loaded if there is version mismatch between plugin and vpp. This can be bypassed by setting "skip-version-check" for specific plugin. If .early-init string is present, plugin loader will try to resolve this specific symbol in the plugin namespace and make a function call. Following startup.conf configuration is added: plugins { path /path/to/plugin/directory plugin ila_plugin.so { enable skip-version-check } plugin acl_plugin.so { disable } } Change-Id: I706c691dd34d94ffe9e02b59831af8859a95f061 Signed-off-by: Damjan Marion <damarion@cisco.com>
