Merge branch 'Support-PMTU-discovery-with-bridged-UDP-tunnels'
Stefano Brivio says: ==================== Support PMTU discovery with bridged UDP tunnels Currently, PMTU discovery for UDP tunnels only works if packets are routed to the encapsulating interfaces, not bridged. This results from the fact that we generally don't have valid routes to the senders we can use to relay ICMP and ICMPv6 errors, and makes PMTU discovery completely non-functional for VXLAN and GENEVE ports of both regular bridges and Open vSwitch instances. If the sender is local, and packets are forwarded to the port by a regular bridge, all it takes is to generate a corresponding route exception on the encapsulating device. The bridge then finds the route exception carrying the PMTU value estimate as it forwards frames, and relays ICMP messages back to the socket of the local sender. Patch 1/6 fixes this case. If the sender resides on another node, we actually need to reply to IP and IPv6 packets ourselves and send these ICMP or ICMPv6 errors back, using the same encapsulating device. Patch 2/6, based on an original idea by Florian Westphal, adds the needed functionality, while patches 3/6 and 4/6 add matching support for VXLAN and GENEVE. Finally, 5/6 and 6/6 introduce selftests for all combinations of inner and outer IP versions, covering both VXLAN and GENEVE, with both regular bridges and Open vSwitch instances. v2: Add helper to check for any bridge port, skip oif check for PMTU routes for bridge ports only, split IPv4 and IPv6 helpers and functions (all suggested by David Ahern) ==================== Signed-off-by: David S.
