31 IPsec Security Gateway Sample Application
32 =========================================
33
34 The IPsec Security Gateway application is an example of a "real world"
35 application using DPDK cryptodev framework.
36
37 Overview
38 --------
39
40 The application demonstrates the implementation of a Security Gateway
41 (not IPsec compliant, see Constraints bellow) using DPDK based on RFC4301,
42 RFC4303, RFC3602 and RFC2404.
43
44 Internet Key Exchange (IKE) is not implemented, so only manual setting of
45 Security Policies and Security Associations is supported.
46
47 The Security Policies (SP) are implemented as ACL rules, the Security
48 Associations (SA) are stored in a table and the Routing is implemented
49 using LPM.
50
51 The application classify the ports between Protected and Unprotected.
52 Thus, traffic received in an Unprotected or Protected port is consider
53 Inbound or Outbound respectively.
54
55 Path for IPsec Inbound traffic:
56
57 *  Read packets from the port
58 *  Classify packets between IPv4 and ESP.
59 *  Inbound SA lookup for ESP packets based on their SPI
60 *  Verification/Decryption
61 *  Removal of ESP and outer IP header
62 *  Inbound SP check using ACL of decrypted packets and any other IPv4 packet
63    we read.
64 *  Routing
65 *  Write packet to port
66
67 Path for IPsec Outbound traffic:
68
69 *  Read packets from the port
70 *  Outbound SP check using ACL of all IPv4 traffic
71 *  Outbound SA lookup for packets that need IPsec protection
72 *  Add ESP and outer IP header
73 *  Encryption/Digest
74 *  Routing
75 *  Write packet to port
76
77 Constraints
78 -----------
79 *  IPv4 traffic
80 *  ESP tunnel mode
81 *  EAS-CBC, HMAC-SHA1 and NULL
82 *  Each SA must be handle by a unique lcore (1 RX queue per port)
83 *  No chained mbufs
84
85 Compiling the Application
86 -------------------------
87
88 To compile the application:
89
90 #. Go to the sample application directory:
91
92    .. code-block:: console
93
94       export RTE_SDK=/path/to/rte_sdk
95       cd ${RTE_SDK}/examples/ipsec-secgw
96
97 #. Set the target (a default target is used if not specified). For example:
98
99    .. code-block:: console
100
101       export RTE_TARGET=x86_64-native-linuxapp-gcc
102
103    See the *DPDK Getting Started Guide* for possible RTE_TARGET values.
104
105 #. Build the application:
106
107    .. code-block:: console
108
109        make
110
111 Running the Application
112 -----------------------
113
114 The application has a number of command line options:
115
116 .. code-block:: console
117
118    ./build/ipsec-secgw [EAL options] -- -p PORTMASK -P -u PORTMASK --config
119    (port,queue,lcore)[,(port,queue,lcore] --single-sa SAIDX --ep0|--ep1
120
121 where,
122
123 *   -p PORTMASK: Hexadecimal bitmask of ports to configure
124
125 *   -P: optional, sets all ports to promiscuous mode so that packets are
126     accepted regardless of the packet's Ethernet MAC destination address.
127     Without this option, only packets with the Ethernet MAC destination address
128     set to the Ethernet address of the port are accepted (default is enabled).
129
130 *   -u PORTMASK: hexadecimal bitmask of unprotected ports
131
132 *   --config (port,queue,lcore)[,(port,queue,lcore)]: determines which queues
133     from which ports are mapped to which cores
134
135 *   --single-sa SAIDX: use a single SA for outbound traffic, bypassing the SP
136     on both Inbound and Outbound. This option is meant for debugging/performance
137     purposes.
138
139 *   --ep0: configure the app as Endpoint 0.
140
141 *   --ep1: configure the app as Endpoint 1.
142
143 Either one of --ep0 or --ep1 *must* be specified.
144 The main purpose of these options is two easily configure two systems
145 back-to-back that would forward traffic through an IPsec tunnel.
146
147 The mapping of lcores to port/queues is similar to other l3fwd applications.
148
149 For example, given the following command line:
150
151 .. code-block:: console
152
153     ./build/ipsec-secgw -l 20,21 -n 4 --socket-mem 0,2048
154            --vdev "cryptodev_null_pmd" -- -p 0xf -P -u 0x3
155            --config="(0,0,20),(1,0,20),(2,0,21),(3,0,21)" --ep0
156
157 where each options means:
158
159 *   The -l option enables cores 20 and 21
160
161 *   The -n option sets memory 4 channels
162
163 *   The --socket-mem to use 2GB on socket 1
164
165 *   The --vdev "cryptodev_null_pmd" option creates virtual NULL cryptodev PMD
166
167 *   The -p option enables ports (detected) 0, 1, 2 and 3
168
169 *   The -P option enables promiscuous mode
170
171 *   The -u option sets ports 1 and 2 as unprotected, leaving 2 and 3 as protected
172
173 *   The --config option enables one queue per port with the following mapping:
174
175 +----------+-----------+-----------+---------------------------------------+
176 | **Port** | **Queue** | **lcore** | **Description**                       |
177 |          |           |           |                                       |
178 +----------+-----------+-----------+---------------------------------------+
179 | 0        | 0         | 20        | Map queue 0 from port 0 to lcore 20.  |
180 |          |           |           |                                       |
181 +----------+-----------+-----------+---------------------------------------+
182 | 1        | 0         | 20        | Map queue 0 from port 1 to lcore 20.  |
183 |          |           |           |                                       |
184 +----------+-----------+-----------+---------------------------------------+
185 | 2        | 0         | 21        | Map queue 0 from port 2 to lcore 21.  |
186 |          |           |           |                                       |
187 +----------+-----------+-----------+---------------------------------------+
188 | 3        | 0         | 21        | Map queue 0 from port 3 to lcore 21.  |
189 |          |           |           |                                       |
190 +----------+-----------+-----------+---------------------------------------+
191
192 *   The --ep0 options configures the app with a given set of SP, SA and Routing
193     entries as explained below in more detail.
194
195 Refer to the *DPDK Getting Started Guide* for general information on running
196 applications and the Environment Abstraction Layer (EAL) options.
197
198 The application would do a best effort to "map" crypto devices to cores, with
199 hardware devices having priority.
200 This means that if the application is using a single core and both hardware
201 and software crypto devices are detected, hardware devices will be used.
202
203 A way to achieve the case where you want to force the use of virtual crypto
204 devices is to whitelist the Ethernet devices needed and therefore implicitly
205 blacklisting all hardware crypto devices.
206
207 For example, something like the following command line:
208
209 .. code-block:: console
210
211     ./build/ipsec-secgw -l 20,21 -n 4 --socket-mem 0,2048
212             -w 81:00.0 -w 81:00.1 -w 81:00.2 -w 81:00.3
213             --vdev "cryptodev_aesni_mb_pmd" --vdev "cryptodev_null_pmd" --
214             -p 0xf -P -u 0x3 --config="(0,0,20),(1,0,20),(2,0,21),(3,0,21)"
215             --ep0

217 Configurations
218 --------------
219
220 The following sections provide some details on the default values used to
221 initialize the SP, SA and Routing tables.
222 Currently all the configuration is hard coded into the application.
223
224 Security Policy Initialization
225 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
226
227 As mention in the overview, the Security Policies are ACL rules.
228 The application defines two ACLs, one each of Inbound and Outbound, and
229 it replicates them per socket in use.
230
231 Following are the default rules:

334 Security Association Initialization
335 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
336
337 The SAs are kept in a array table.
338
339 For Inbound, the SPI is used as index module the table size.
340 This means that on a table for 100 SA, SPI 5 and 105 would use the same index
341 and that is not currently supported.
342
343 Notice that it is not an issue for Outbound traffic as we store the index and
344 not the SPI in the Security Policy.
345
346 All SAs configured with AES-CBC and HMAC-SHA1 share the same values for cipher
347 block size and key, and authentication digest size and key.
348
349 Following are the default values:
