2016-09-15net/sched: act_tunnel_key: Remove rcu_read_lock protectionHadar Hen Zion
Remove rcu_read_lock protection from tunnel_key_dump and use rtnl_dereference, dump operation is protected by rtnl lock. Also, remove rcu_read_lock from tunnel_key_release and use rcu_dereference_protected. Both operations are running exclusively and a writer couldn't modify t->params while those functions are executed.

2016-09-10net/sched: Introduce act_tunnel_keyAmir Vadai
This action could be used before redirecting packets to a shared tunnel device, or when redirecting packets arriving from a such a device. The action will release the metadata created by the tunnel device (decap), or set the metadata with the specified values for encap operation. For example, the following flower filter will forward all ICMP packets destined to 11.11.11.2 through the shared vxlan device 'vxlan0'. Before redirecting, a metadata for the vxlan tunnel is created using the tunnel_key action and it's arguments: $ tc filter add dev net0 protocol ip parent ffff: \ flower \ ip_proto 1 \ dst_ip 11.11.11.2 \ action tunnel_key set \ src_ip 11.11.0.1 \ dst_ip 11.11.0.2 \ id 11 \ action mirred egress redirect dev vxlan0 Signed-off-by: Amir Vadai <amir@vadai.me> Signed-off-by: Hadar Hen Zion <hadarh@mellanox.com> Reviewed-by: Shmulik Ladkani <shmulik.ladkani@gmail.com> Acked-by: Jamal Hadi Salim <jhs@mojatatu.com> Acked-by: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@google.com> Signed-off-by: David S.
