2021-07-23session vcl: support abstract sockets for app nsFlorin Coras1-13/+31
App namespaces can now be associated to a linux ip netns, e.g.: app ns add id <ns_id> secret <n> sw_if_index <n> netns <netns> If session layer's app sock api is enabled, this triggers the creation of an abstract listening socket in the netns that has been configured. For the example above that would be @vpp/session/<ns_id>. Consequently, vcl, or other apps attaching to vpp, can connect to said abstract socket from an ip netns without the need to share unix domain socket files. In particular, for vcl it's enough to set app-socket-api to @vpp/session/<ns_id> in the conf file.

2020-09-14session: add unix socket api for app attachmentFlorin Coras1-2/+74
This is an af_unix socket alternative to the binary api. To enable it, add use-app-socket-api under session stanza in startup.conf. When the socket api is enabled, attachments through the binary api are disabled. The socket api only works with memfd fifo segments, i.e., shm segments are not supported.

2019-07-23api: binary api cleanupDave Barach1-1/+2
Multiple API message handlers call vnet_get_sup_hw_interface(...) without checking the inbound sw_if_index. This can cause a pool_elt_at_index ASSERT in a debug image, and major disorder in a production image. Given that a number of places are coded as follows, add an "api_visible_or_null" variant of vnet_get_sup_hw_interface, which returns NULL given an invalid sw_if_index, or a hidden sw interface: - hw = vnet_get_sup_hw_interface (vnm, sw_if_index); + hw = vnet_get_sup_hw_interface_api_visible_or_null (vnm, sw_if_index); if (hw == NULL || memif_device_class.index != hw->dev_class_index) return clib_error_return (0, "not a memif interface"); Rename two existing xxx_safe functions -> xxx_or_null to make it obvious what they return.

2017-10-28session: rules tablesFlorin Coras1-0/+13
This introduces 5-tuple lookup tables that may be used to implement custom session layer actions at connection establishment time (session layer perspective). The rules table build mask-match-action lookup trees that for a given 5-tuple key return the action for the first longest match. If rules overlap, ordering is established by tuple longest match with the following descending priority: remote ip, local ip, remote port, local port. At this time, the only match action supported is to forward packets to the application identified by the action.

2017-10-10session: add support for application namespacingFlorin Coras1-0/+293
Applications are now provided the option to select the namespace they are to be attached to and the scope of their attachement. Application namespaces are meant to: 1) constrain the scope of communication through the network by association with source interfaces and/or fib tables that provide the source ips to be used and limit the scope of routing 2) provide a namespace local scope to session layer communication, as opposed to the global scope provided by 1). That is, sessions can be established without assistance from transport and network layers. Albeit, zero/local-host ip addresses must still be provided in session establishment messages due to existing application idiosyncrasies. This mode of communication uses shared-memory fifos (cut-through sessions) exclusively. If applications request no namespace, they are assigned to the default one, which at its turn uses the default fib. Applications can request access to both local and global scopes for a namespace. If no scope is specified, session layer defaults to the global one. When a sw_if_index is provided for a namespace, zero-ip (INADDR_ANY) binds are converted to binds to the requested interface.
