[U-Boot] [PATCH v7 24/27] sandbox: eth: Add a bridge to a real network for sandbox

Joe Hershberger joe.hershberger at ni.com
Sun Mar 22 23:09:21 CET 2015


Implement a bridge between U-Boot's network stack and Linux's raw packet
API allowing the sandbox to send and receive packets using the host
machine's network interface.

This raw Ethernet API requires elevated privileges.  You can either run
as root, or you can add the capability needed like so:

sudo /sbin/setcap "CAP_NET_RAW+ep" /path/to/u-boot

Changes in v7: None
Changes in v6:
-Addressed nits

Changes in v5:
-Added fallback for setting promiscuous mode
-Added help to Kconfig
-Added more details and examples in the README
-Check for NULL when reading fdt for host interface
-Check for malloc failure
-Remove cast of pointer passed to free
-Remove the empty sb_eth_raw_remove function
-Return -errno in from send and recv
-Return errno from recv
-Set the socket to non-blocking
-Use net_rx_packets instead of a stack buffer

Changes in v4:
-Add comments to priv struct definition
-Added comments to README.sandbox
-Clean up the interface to sandbox's eth-raw-os by passing priv to raw-os
-Cleanup var definition order
-Fixed the MAC address limitation (now all traffic uses MAC address from env)
-Move os file to arch
-Moved config to Kconfig
-Use accessors for platdata and priv

Changes in v3:
-Made the os raw packet support for sandbox eth build and work.

+Linux RAW Networking Bridge
+---------------------------
+
+The sandbox_eth_raw driver bridges traffic between the bottom of the network
+stack and the RAW sockets API in Linux. This allows much of the U-Boot network
+functionality to be tested in sandbox against real network traffic.
+
+For Ethernet network adapters, the bridge utilizes the RAW AF_PACKET API.  This
+is needed to get access to the lowest level of the network stack in Linux. This
+means that all of the Ethernet frame is included. This allows the U-Boot network
+stack to be fully used. In other words, nothing about the Linux network stack is
+involved in forming the packets that end up on the wire. To receive the
+responses to packets sent from U-Boot the network interface has to be set to
+promiscuous mode so that the network card won't filter out packets not destined
+for its configured (on Linux) MAC address.
+
+The RAW sockets Ethernet API requires elevated privileges in Linux. You can
+either run as root, or you can add the capability needed like so:
+
+sudo /sbin/setcap "CAP_NET_RAW+ep" /path/to/u-boot
+
+The default device tree for sandbox includes an entry for eth0 on the sandbox
+host machine whose alias is "eth1". The following are a few examples of network
+operations being tested on the eth0 interface.
+
+sudo /path/to/u-boot -D

+DHCP

+set autoload no
