Introduce RedBox support (HSR-SAN to be more precise) for HSR networks.
Following traffic reduction optimizations have been implemented:
- Do not send HSR supervisory frames to Port C (interlink)
- Do not forward to HSR ring frames addressed to Port C
- Do not forward to Port C frames from HSR ring
- Do not send duplicate HSR frame to HSR ring when destination is Port C
The corresponding patch to modify iptable2 sources has already been sent:

Testing procedure (veth and netns):
-----------------------------------
One shall run:
linux-vanila/tools/testing/selftests/net/hsr/hsr_redbox.sh
(Detailed description of the setup one can find in the test
script file).
Testing procedure (real hardware):
----------------------------------
The EVB-KSZ9477 has been used for testing on net-next branch
(SHA1: 5fc68320c1).
Ports 4/5 were used for SW managed HSR (hsr1) as first hsr0 for ports 1/2
(with HW offloading for ksz9477) was created. Port 3 has been used as
interlink port (single USB-ETH dongle).
Configuration - RedBox (EVB-KSZ9477):
if link set lan1 down;ip link set lan2 down
ip link add name hsr0 type hsr slave1 lan1 slave2 lan2 supervision 45 version 1
ip link add name hsr1 type hsr slave1 lan4 slave2 lan5 interlink lan3 supervision 45 version 1
ip link set lan4 up;ip link set lan5 up
ip link set lan3 up
ip addr add 192.168.0.11/24 dev hsr1
ip link set hsr1 up
Configuration - DAN-H (EVB-KSZ9477):
ip link set lan1 down;ip link set lan2 down
ip link add name hsr0 type hsr slave1 lan1 slave2 lan2 supervision 45 version 1
ip link add name hsr1 type hsr slave1 lan4 slave2 lan5 supervision 45 version 1
ip link set lan4 up;ip link set lan5 up
ip addr add 192.168.0.12/24 dev hsr1
ip link set hsr1 up
This approach uses only SW based HSR devices (hsr1).

self_node_db is a list_head with one entry of struct hsr_node. The
purpose is to hold the two MAC addresses of the node itself.
It is convenient to recycle the structure. However having a list_head
and fetching always the first entry is not really optimal.
Created a new data strucure contaning the two MAC addresses named
hsr_self_node. Access that structure like an RCU protected pointer so
it can be replaced on the fly without blocking the reader.

The hlist optimisation (which not only uses hlist_head instead of
list_head but also splits hsr_priv::node_db into an array of 256 slots)
does not consider the "node merge":
Upon starting the hsr network (with three nodes) a packet that is
sent from node1 to node3 will also be sent from node1 to node2 and then
forwarded to node3.
As a result node3 will receive 2 packets because it is not able
to filter out the duplicate. Each packet received will create a new
struct hsr_node with macaddress_A only set the MAC address it received
from (the two MAC addesses from node1).
At some point (early in the process) two supervision frames will be
received from node1. They will be processed by hsr_handle_sup_frame()
and one frame will leave early ("Node has already been merged") and does
nothing. The other frame will be merged as portB and have its MAC
address written to macaddress_B and the hsr_node (that was created for
it as macaddress_A) will be removed.
From now on HSR is able to identify a duplicate because both packets
sent from one node will result in the same struct hsr_node because
hsr_get_node() will find the MAC address either on macaddress_A or
macaddress_B.
Things get tricky with the optimisation: If sender's MAC address is
saved as macaddress_A then the lookup will work as usual. If the MAC
address has been merged into macaddress_B of another hsr_node then the
lookup won't work because it is likely that the data structure is in
another bucket. This results in creating a new struct hsr_node and not
recognising a possible duplicate.
A way around it would be to add another hsr_node::mac_list_B and attach
it to the other bucket to ensure that this hsr_node will be looked up
either via macaddress_A _or_ macaddress_B.
I however prefer to revert it because it sounds like an academic problem
rather than real life workload plus it adds complexity. I'm not an HSR
expert with what is usual size of a network but I would guess 40 to 60
nodes. With 10.000 nodes and assuming 60us for pass-through (from node
to node) then it would take almost 600ms for a packet to almost wrap
around which sounds a lot.
Revert the hash MAC addresses optimisation.

Network drivers such as igb or igc call eth_get_headlen() to determine the
header length for their to be constructed skbs in receive path.
When running HSR on top of these drivers, it results in triggering BUG_ON() in
skb_pull(). The reason is the skb headlen is not sufficient for HSR to work
correctly. skb_pull() notices that.
For instance, eth_get_headlen() returns 14 bytes for TCP traffic over HSR which
is not correct. The problem is, the flow dissection code does not take HSR into
account. Therefore, add support for it.

Currently, HSR manages mac addresses of known HSR nodes by using list_head.
It takes a lot of time when there are a lot of registered nodes due to
finding specific mac address nodes by using linear search. We can be
reducing the time by using hlist. Thus, this patch moves list_head to
hlist_head for mac addresses and this allows for further improvement of
network performance.

Add support for offloading of HSR/PRP (IEC 62439-3) tag insertion
tag removal, duplicate generation and forwarding.
For HSR, insertion involves the switch adding a 6 byte HSR header after
the 14 byte Ethernet header. For PRP it adds a 6 byte trailer.
Tag removal involves automatically stripping the HSR/PRP header/trailer
in the switch. This is possible when the switch also performs auto
deduplication using the HSR/PRP header/trailer (making it no longer
required).
Forwarding involves automatically forwarding between redundant ports in
an HSR. This is crucial because delay is accumulated as a frame passes
through each node in the ring.
Duplication involves the switch automatically sending a single frame
from the CPU port to both redundant ports. This is required because the
inserted HSR/PRP header/trailer must contain the same sequence number
on the frames sent out both redundant ports.

DAN-P (Dual Attached Nodes PRP) nodes are expected to receive

of PRP protocol unit called RCT, Redundancy Control Trailer
(RCT) similar to HSR tag. PRP network can have traditional
devices such as bridges/switches or PC attached to it and
should be able to communicate. Regular Ethernet devices treat
the RCT as pads. This patch adds logic to format L2 frames
from network stack to add a trailer (RCT) and send it as
duplicates over the slave interfaces when the protocol is
PRP as per IEC 62439-3. At the ingress, it strips the trailer,
do duplicate detection and rejection and forward a stripped
frame up the network stack. PRP device should accept frames
from Singly Attached Nodes (SAN) and thus the driver mark
the link where the frame came from in the node table.

Parallel Redundancy Protocol (PRP) is another redundancy protocol
introduced by IEC 63439 standard. It is similar to HSR in many
aspects:-
- Use a pair of Ethernet interfaces to created the PRP device
- Use a 6 byte redundancy protocol part (RCT, Redundancy Check
Trailer) similar to HSR Tag.
- Has Link Redundancy Entity (LRE) that works with RCT to implement
redundancy.
Key difference is that the protocol unit is a trailer instead of a
prefix as in HSR. That makes it inter-operable with tradition network
components such as bridges/switches which treat it as pad bytes,
whereas HSR nodes requires some kind of translators (Called redbox) to
talk to regular network devices. This features allows regular linux box
to be converted to a DAN-P box. DAN-P stands for Dual Attached Node - PRP
similar to DAN-H (Dual Attached Node - HSR).
Add a comment at the header/source code to explicitly state that the
driver files also handles PRP protocol as well.

These function doesn't return NULL. If error occurs in there,
it returns error pointer.
So, it should check error pointer instead of NULL.
2. It doesn't unregister interface if it fails to setup hsr interface.
If it fails to initialize hsr interface after register_netdevice(),
it should call unregister_netdevice().
3. Ignore failure of creation of debugfs
If creating of debugfs dir and file is failed, creating hsr interface
will be failed. But debugfs doesn't affect actual logic of hsr module.
So, ignoring this is more correct and this behavior is more general.

This patch adds support for the newer version 1 of the HSR
networking standard. Version 0 is still default and the new
version has to be selected via iproute2.
Main changes are in the supervision frame handling and its
ethertype field.

This patch removes the separate paths for frames coming from the outside, and
frames sent from the HSR device, and instead makes all frames go through
hsr_forward_skb() in hsr_forward.c. This greatly improves code readability and
also opens up the possibility for future support of the HSR Interlink device
that is the basis for HSR RedBoxes and HSR QuadBoxes, as well as VLAN
compatibility.
Other improvements:
* A reduction in the number of times an skb is copied on machines without
HAVE_EFFICIENT_UNALIGNED_ACCESS, which improves throughput somewhat.
* Headers are now created using the standard eth_header(), and using the
standard hard_header_len.
* Each HSR slave now gets its own private skb, so slave-specific fields can be
correctly set.

High-availability Seamless Redundancy ("HSR") provides instant failover
redundancy for Ethernet networks. It requires a special network topology where
all nodes are connected in a ring (each node having two physical network
interfaces). It is suited for applications that demand high availability and
very short reaction time.
HSR acts on the Ethernet layer, using a registered Ethernet protocol type to
send special HSR frames in both directions over the ring. The driver creates
virtual network interfaces that can be used just like any ordinary Linux
network interface, for IP/TCP/UDP traffic etc. All nodes in the network ring
must be HSR capable.
This code is a "best effort" to comply with the HSR standard as described in
IEC 62439-3:2010 (HSRv0).
