Hi all,
reviving the discussion.
@Beilei Xing <mailto:beilei.x...@intel.com> could you please provide
info on what UDP destination ports are used for VxLan by i40 driver?
if its just the default then we can remove "RTE_ETH_IS_TUNNEL_PKT(pkt_type) == 0"
Right, we would like to remove the check "RTE_ETH_IS_TUNNEL_PKT(pkt_type) == 0"
from parse_vxlan function.
And rather, add a default case with this check "RTE_ETH_IS_TUNNEL_PKT(pkt_type) ==
0" at the end.
This default case can print an error stating "unknown tunnel pkt" with its
udp_port parameters.

I didn't want to remove the default parsing of tunnel as VxLan because I
thought it might be used,
Instead I moved it to the end, which makes it detect all supported tunnel
through udp_dst_port,
And only if no tunnel was matched it would default to VxLan.
That was the reason geneve weren't detected and parsed as vxlan instead,
which is the bug I was trying to solve.
We can take help/input from i40 maintainers for it.
Hi Beilei Xing,
For setting packet_type as Tunnel, what criteria is used by i40 driver. Is it
only udp_dst port or any other parameters also.

The csum FWD mode parses any received packet to
set mbuf
offloads for the transmitting burst, mainly in
the checksum/TSO areas.
In the case of a tunnel header, the csum FWD
tries to detect
known tunnels by the standard definition using
the header'sdata
and fallback to check the packet type in the
mbuf to see if the
Rx port driver already sign the packet as a
tunnel.
In the fallback case, the csum assumes the
tunnel is VXLAN and
parses the tunnel as VXLAN.
As far as I can see there is a VXLAN port check in
'parse_vxlan()', why it is not helping?
The problem is not the vxlan check but the tunnel type
in mbuf
that caused the
packet to be detected as vxlan(default) before checking
GENEVE tunnel case.
Check is as following:
if (udp_hdr->dst_port != _htons(RTE_VXLAN_DEFAULT_PORT)
&&
RTE_ETH_IS_TUNNEL_PKT(pkt_type) == 0)
return;
Do you what is the intention for the
"RTE_ETH_IS_TUNNEL_PKT(pkt_type) ==
0"
check?
Why vxlan parsing doesn't stop when it is not default port?
Maybe some drivers set the tunnel type for vxlan packets coming
after non-
standard vxlan port.
But checking the tunnel flag to say that it is vxlan is too broad,
isn't it?
And this is the problem you are having.
Can there be any way to detect and check non-standard vxlan port?
Maybe yes, but it is probably more complex solusion.
See this patch:
https://patches.dpdk.org/project/dpdk/patch/1423819371-24222-13-git-se
nd-email-olivier.m...@6wind.com/
comments there:
1. check udp destination port, 4789 is the default vxlan port (rfc7348).
2. currently, this flag is set by i40e only if the packet is vxlan
And maybe another driver assumes more ports here.
Collecting all the non-standard ports can start from i40 maintainers😊
I think, here we should check for supported tunnel types only. The i40
driver setting a Tunnel flag, does not means that it VxLan type only.
As in your case those were GENEVE packets getting treated as VxLan.
Making parse_vxlan() udp_dst_port specific can avoid this issue.
When the GENEVE tunnel was added to the known
tunnels in csum,
its parsing trial was wrongly located after the
pkt type
detection, causing the csum to parse the GENEVE
header as VXLAN
when the Rx port set the tunnel packet type.
Locate the GENEVE parsing trial before the
packet type detection.
