Why you set different filter keys on different lookup? Each lookup only filter one type of keys?
If I want to filter a same key like dst_mac and do both QoS classified action and vlan modify action, how to implement this in the same chain #{IS1_L0} ?
I think it's more reasonable to distinguish different lookup by different action like this:
IS1_L0 = 10000 # IS1 lookup 0 # do QoS classified action
IS1_L1 = 11000 # IS1 lookup 1 # do vlan modify action
IS1_L2 = 12000 # IS1 lookup 2 # do goto PAG action
IS2_L0 = 20000 # IS2 lookup 0 # IS2 20000 - 20255 -> pag 0-255
IS2_L1 = 21000 # IS2 lookup 1
So it’s no need to add templates, each lookup can support filtering mac, IP or vlan tag, but only support one action.
Thanks,
Xiaoliang

As far as I understand, he's still using the static chain numbers
exactly for that, even though he didn't explicitly mention the action
for each individual IS1 lookup.
The reason why he's also adding templates on each individual chain is to
be able to configure VCAP_S1_KEY_CFG and VCAP_S2_CFG. The configuration
of key type is per lookup.
Honestly, Joergen, I would take dynamic key configuration per lookup as
a separate item. Xiaoliang's patch series for IS1 support is pretty
large already.
Right now we have:
- In mainline:
S2_IP6_CFG
S2_IP6_CFG controls the key generation for IPv6 frames. Bits 1:0
control the first lookup and bits 3:2 control the second lookup.
0: IPv6 frames are matched against IP6_TCP_UDP or IP6_OTHER entries
1: IPv6 frames are matched against IP6_STD entries
2: IPv6 frames are matched against IP4_TCP_UDP or IP4_OTHER entries
3: IPv6 frames are matched against MAC_ETYPE entries
We set this field to 0xa (0b1010, aka 2 for both lookups: IP4_TCP_UDP).
Although we don't really parse IPv6 keys coming from tc.
Also there are these fields which we're managing dynamically through
ocelot_match_all_as_mac_etype, depending on whether there is any
MAC_ETYPE key added by the user:
S2_SNAP_DIS
S2_ARP_DIS
S2_IP_TCPUDP_DIS
S2_IP_OTHER_DIS
- In Xiaoliang's patchset:
S1_KEY_IP6_CFG
Selects key per lookup in S1 for IPv6 frames.
0: Use key S1_NORMAL
1: Use key S1_7TUPLE
2: Use key S1_5TUPLE_IP4
3: Use key S1_NORMAL_IP6
4: Use key S1_5TUPLE_IP6
5: Use key S1_DBL_VID
We set this to 2.
S1_KEY_IP4_CFG
Selects key per lookup in S1 for IPv4 frames.
0: Use key S1_NORMAL
1: Use key S1_7TUPLE
2: Use key S1_5TUPLE_IP4
3: Use key S1_DBL_VID
We set this to 2.
Your input on which tc chain template could be used for each key type is
valuable, we should create a table with all the options and associated
key sizes (and therefore, number of available filters) and post it
somewhere. I'm not completely sure that chains will be enough to
describe every key type, at least not intuitively, For example if I just
want to match on EtherType (protocol), I'll need an ETYPE (IS1) or
MAC_ETYPE (IS2) rule, but the template for that will need to be
formulated in terms of dst_mac because I don't think there's a way to
use only the protocol in a template.
But I expect we keep using some default values (perhaps even the current
ones, or deduce a valid key type from the first added rule, which is
exactly what ocelot_match_all_as_mac_etype tries to do now) and don't
expect the user to open the datasheet unless some advanced configuration
is required. Otherwise I'm not sure who is going to use this. If the
user sees a template shell script with the chains already set up,
chances are it won't be too hard to add the right actions to the right
chains. But if that is going to involve fiddling with templates to set
up the right key type, when all they want is a source IPv4 address
match, well, no chance.
If we agree that templates won't be strictly necessary for basic
functionality, we can resubmit what we have already and think more about
the best way to expose all key types. I don't honestly know about using
a flower filter with 'protocol all' and no other key as a matchall
replacement. This is going to be really, really restrictive, and this
particular restriction could even be perhaps lifted in the meantime (I
don't see a reason why 'matchall' wouldn't be allowed in a chain with a
template installed).
But Xiaoliang has a point though: there is something which can never be
supported: if I want to do QoS based on a list of filters, some of which
need a S1_7TUPLE key, and others need a S1_NORMAL_IP6 key, then I can
never do that, because in our model, there's only one chain/lookup
reserved for QoS classification (a software constraint) but we need 2
chains/lookups for the 2 different key types (a hardware constraint).
Yes, this is something hypothetical at this point, but it bothers me
that the model would be limiting us. The hardware should support QoS
classification in more than 1 IS1 lookup, no? It isn't limited to
IS1_L0. Maybe, after all, we should permit dynamic assignment of actions
to chains. This way, "the QoS on multiple key types" use case could be
supported. What do you think?
Allan also mentioned shared blocks. Do we see anything particularly
difficult with those, that we should address first?
