From a025fb5f49ad38cf749753b16fcd031d0d678f2b Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Stefano Brivio Date: Thu, 8 Nov 2018 12:19:19 +0100 Subject: geneve: Allow configuration of DF behaviour draft-ietf-nvo3-geneve-08 says: It is strongly RECOMMENDED that Path MTU Discovery ([RFC1191], [RFC1981]) be used by setting the DF bit in the IP header when Geneve packets are transmitted over IPv4 (this is the default with IPv6). Now that ICMP error handling is working for GENEVE, we can comply with this recommendation. Make this configurable, though, to avoid breaking existing setups. By default, DF won't be set. It can be set or inherited from inner IPv4 packets. If it's configured to be inherited and we are encapsulating IPv6, it will be set. This only applies to non-lwt tunnels: if an external control plane is used, tunnel key will still control the DF flag. v2: - DF behaviour configuration only applies for non-lwt tunnels, apply DF setting only if (!geneve->collect_md) in geneve_xmit_skb() (Stephen Hemminger) Signed-off-by: Stefano Brivio Reviewed-by: Sabrina Dubroca Signed-off-by: David S.
