packet.7: Add missing tpacket_auxdata field (tp_vlan_tpid)
...
The definition of the tpacket_auxdata struct in the manpage is not
the same as the definition found in
/include/uapi/linux/if_packet.h.
In particular, instead of a tp_padding field, there is a
tp_vlan_tpid field. An example of a project using this field is
libpcap[1].

Blank lines shouldn't generally appear in *roff source (other

packet.7: Add sll_protocol to list of required fields for outbound packets
...
The manpage packet(7) currently states that:
"When you send packets it is enough to specify sll_family, sll_addr,
sll_halen, sll_ifindex."
This is incorrect: you also need to specify sll_protocol.
(The protocol specified when the socket is created is used for
filtering inbound packets, but not for constructing outbound
packets.)
I encountered this while researching a page for my website:
http://www.microhowto.info/howto/send_an_arbitrary_ethernet_frame_using_an_af_packet_socket_in_c.html
To empirically verify the behaviour I took my test code from the
above page then changed it to use different values for the third
argument to socket() and the sll_protocol field:
- socket created with ETH_P_ARP, packet sent with ETH_P_ARP:
packet sent with EtherType of ETH_P_ARP
- socket created with ETH_P_ARP, sll_protocol==0:
packet sent with EtherType of 0
- socket created with 0x88b5, sll_protocol==htons(ETH_P_ARP):
packet sent with EtherType of ETH_P_ARP
- socket created with ETH_P_ARP, sll_protocol==htons(0x88b5):
packet sent with EtherType of 0x88b5
This shows that leaving sll_protocol set to zero does not have
the desired effect and that it needs to be set to the desired
link-layer protocol.
There is code in the relevant kernel source file
(net/packet/af_packet.c) which appears to inspect the value of the
sll_protocol field and use it as the link-layer protocol number,
however I am not sufficiently familiar with this subsystem to be
fully confident of what is happening. The line in question is:
proto = saddr->sll_protocol;
In version 3.4 of the kernel this can be found in the functions
packet_snd and tpacket_snd. In version 2.6.26 it is in packet_sendmsg.
Below is a patch that adds sll_protocol to the list of required fields.
This may not be the whole truth, since it is not clear what role if any
sll_protocol, sll_halen or sll_addr would play when the socket type is
SOCK_RAW, however I'm confident it is more accurate than the page as it
stands at present.

It looks like most of the socket options from this man pages

<linux/if_packet.h> so we should include that one.
Note from mtk: it looks like <netpacket/packet.h> was based
on some ancient version of <linux/if_packet.h> that has not
been updated. Since linux/if_packet.h is under the "uapi" tree
the proposed patch seems the bext fix.

packet.7: Status in PACKET_RX_RING is actually a bit mask
...
Stefan:
I'm playing with the PACKET_RX_RING option to packet sockets and I
noticed that the status field from the tpacket_hdr structures
inside the mmaped buffer is actually a bit mask. I'm testing with
4Gbps traffic rates and sometimes I get status=5. I'm using Ubuntu
12.04 with a 3.8.0-29 kernel, and at least from the code (I got it
using "sudo apt-get source linux-image-$(uname -r)") it seems the
5 means TP_STATUS_USER | TP_STATUS_LOSING. The 3.8.0 kernel code
has this line in tpacket_rcv():
/*
* LOSING will be reported till you read the stats,
* because it's COR - Clear On Read.
* Anyways, moving it for V1/V2 only as V3 doesn't need this
* at packet level.
*/
if (po->stats.tp_drops)
status |= TP_STATUS_LOSING;
Daniel:
Now to your question. It can easily be seen from the if_packet.h header
file http://lingrok.org/xref/linux-net-next/include/uapi/linux/if_packet.h#93
that TP_STATUS_* are individual bits that are set in tp_status field.
TP_STATUS_USER simply means a frame was received in the ring and is
ready for user space to be processed. If the field also indicates
TP_STATUS_LOSING then this means that there were packet drops in the
rx ring itself so a user knows it didn't get all traffic. This bit
is being reset on getsockopt() when querying PACKET_STATISTICS,
otherwise it stays. Drops occur when the ring buffer was not emptied
fast enough by user space (so no free slot with TP_STATUS_KERNEL), e.g.
due to high incoming traffic load. However, the current frame you're
reading that has TP_STATUS_USER|TP_STATUS_LOSING is fine by itself.

packet.7: PACKET_LOSS has inverse meaning
...
I stumbled upon an error in packet.7 regarding the meaning of the
PACKET_LOSS socket option. According to the current git version of
linux-man setting PACKET_LOSS causes malformed packets to *not* be
silently dropped.
However it is the other way round. If PACKET_LOSS is *not* set,
malformed packets will be marked TP_STATUS_WRONG_FORMAT and the
transmission process aborted, leaving untransmitted packets in
the ring. If it *is* set, malformed packets will be silently
skipped, their status set to TP_STATUS_AVAILABLE and the
transmission process continued with the following packet.
This behaviour can be clearly seen in net/packet/af_packet.c:
http://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux-stable.git/tree/net/packet/af_packet.c#n2300
The value accompanying TP_PACKET_LOSS translates into po->tp_loss:
http://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux-stable.git/tree/net/packet/af_packet.c#n3304
I inverted the meaning of PACKET_LOSS and clarified the
description in the attached patch.

packet.7: Document fanout, ring, and auxiliary options
...
The packet socket manual page does not list all socket options.
This patch adds descriptions of the common packet socket options
PACKET_AUXDATA, PACKET_FANOUT, PACKET_RX_RING, PACKET_STATISTICS,
PACKET_TX_RING
and the ring-specific options
PACKET_LOSS, PACKET_RESERVE, PACKET_TIMESTAMP, PACKET_VERSION
It does not yet add descriptions for
PACKET_COPY_THRESH, PACKET_HDRLEN, PACKET_ORIGDEV,
PACKET_TX_HAS_OFF, PACKET_TX_TIMESTAMP, PACKET_VNET_HDR
It tries to balance being informative with exposing kernel detail
that is unlikely to be used by most readers or that may change
frequently. For implementation details, the manpage points to the
documentation in kernel Documentation/networking. Let me know if
options should be added or removed.
Source: PACKET_FANOUT, PACKET_RX_RING and PACKET_VERSION are in
/tools/testing/net/psock_fanout.c in the latest Linux kernel source
tree. PACKET_STATISTICS was in the first version of that test.
PACKET_TX_RING I have used elsewhere. The other options are based
on reading kernel code.
