The veth driver contains code to forward an skb
from the start_xmit function of one network
device into the receive path of another device.
Moving that code into a common location lets us
reuse the code for direct forwarding of data
between macvlan ports, and possibly in other
drivers.

veth_get_stats() can be called in parallel on several cpus.
It's better to not reset dev->stats as it could give wrong result on
one cpu. Use temporary variables, then store the final results.
Also, we should loop on every possible cpus, not only online cpus,
or cpu hotplug can suddenly give wrong veth stats.

There is no good reason to not support userspace specifying the
network namespace during device creation, and it makes it easier
to create a network device and pass it to a child network namespace
with a well known name.
We have to be careful to ensure that the target network namespace
for the new device exists through the life of the call. To keep
that logic clear I have factored out the network namespace grabbing
logic into rtnl_link_get_net.
In addtion we need to continue to pass the source network namespace
to the rtnl_link_ops.newlink method so that we can find the base
device source network namespace.

In commit 23289a37e2
(net: add a list_head parameter to dellink() method),
I forgot to actually use this parameter in veth_dellink.
I remember feeling a bit uncomfortable about veth_close(),
because it does :
netif_carrier_off(dev);
netif_carrier_off(priv->peer);

There are cases where we can use this_cpu_ptr and as the result
of using this_cpu_ptr() we no longer need to determine the
currently executing cpu.
In those places no get/put_cpu combination is needed anymore.
The local cpu variable can be eliminated.
Preemption still needs to be disabled and enabled since the
modifications of the per cpu variables is not atomic. There may
be multiple per cpu variables modified and those must all
be from the same processor.

This reverts commit ae0e8e8220.
This change had two problems:
1) Since it frees the stats in the drivers' close method, we
can OOPS in the transmit routine.
2) stats are no longer remembered across ifdown/ifup which
disagrees with how every other device operates.
Thanks to analysis and test patch from Serge E. Hallyn
and initial OOPS report by Sachin Sant.

The veth driver will oops if sysfs hooks are open while module is removed.
The net device destructor can not point to code in a module; basically
there are only two possible safe values: NULL - no destructor, or
free_netdev - free on last use

The limitation to only 1500 byte mtu's limits the utility of the veth
device for testing routing. So implement implement a configurable
MTU.
For consistency I drop packets on the receive side when they are
larger than the MTU. I count those drops. And I allow
a little padding for vlan headers.
I also test the mtu when a new device is created with netlink
because that path currently bypasses the current mtu setting
code.

The current implementation of carrier detect in veth is broken.
It reports the link is down until both sides of the veth pair
are administatively up and then forever after it reports link up.
So fix veth so that it only reports link up when both interfaces
of the pair are administratively up.

This patch moves neigh_setup and hard_start_xmit into the network device ops
structure. For bisection, fix all the previously converted drivers as well.
Bonding driver took the biggest hit on this.
Added a prefetch of the hard_start_xmit in the fast path to try and reduce
any impact this would have.

The veth private structure contains a netdev pointer refering to its peer.
This field is never used and it is pointless because if we can access,
the veth_priv, that means we already have the netdev which is stored
in veth_priv->dev.

When deleting the veth driver, veth_close calls netif_carrier_off
for the two extremities of the network device. netif_carrier_off on
the peer device will fire an event and hold a reference on the peer
device. Just after, the peer is unregistered taking the rtnl_lock while
the linkwatch_event is scheduled. If __linkwatch_run_queue does not
occurs before the unregistering, unregister_netdevice will wait for
the dev refcount to reach zero holding the rtnl_lock and linkwatch_event
will wait for the rtnl_lock and hold the dev refcount.

When unregistering the rtnl_link_ops, all existing devices using
the ops are destroyed. With nested devices this may lead to a
use-after-free despite the use of for_each_netdev_safe() in case
the upper device is next in the device list and is destroyed
by the NETDEV_UNREGISTER notifier.
The easy fix is to restart scanning the device list after removing
a device. Alternatively we could add new devices to the front of
the list to avoid having dependant devices follow the device they
depend on. A third option would be to only restart scanning if
dev->iflink of the next device matches dev->ifindex of the current
one. For now this seems like the safest solution.
With this patch, the veth rtnl_link_ops unregistration can use
rtnl_link_unregister() directly since it now also handles destruction
of multiple devices at once.

This patch makes most of the generic device layer network
namespace safe. This patch makes dev_base_head a
network namespace variable, and then it picks up
a few associated variables. The functions:
dev_getbyhwaddr
dev_getfirsthwbytype
dev_get_by_flags
dev_get_by_name
__dev_get_by_name
dev_get_by_index
__dev_get_by_index
dev_ioctl
dev_ethtool
dev_load
wireless_process_ioctl
were modified to take a network namespace argument, and
deal with it.
vlan_ioctl_set and brioctl_set were modified so their
hooks will receive a network namespace argument.
So basically anthing in the core of the network stack that was
affected to by the change of dev_base was modified to handle
multiple network namespaces. The rest of the network stack was
simply modified to explicitly use &init_net the initial network
namespace. This can be fixed when those components of the network
stack are modified to handle multiple network namespaces.
For now the ifindex generator is left global.
Fundametally ifindex numbers are per namespace, or else
we will have corner case problems with migration when
we get that far.
At the same time there are assumptions in the network stack
that the ifindex of a network device won't change. Making
the ifindex number global seems a good compromise until
the network stack can cope with ifindex changes when
you change namespaces, and the like.

Veth stands for Virtual ETHernet. It is a simple tunnel driver
that works at the link layer and looks like a pair of ethernet
devices interconnected with each other.
Mainly it allows to communicate between network namespaces but
it can be used as is as well.
The newlink callback is organized that way to make it easy to
create the peer device in the separate namespace when we have
them in kernel.
This implementation uses another interface - the RTM_NRELINK
message introduced by Patric.
