There is a regular need in the kernel to provide a way to declare
having a dynamically sized set of trailing elements in a structure.
Kernel code should always use “flexible array members”[1] for these
cases. The older style of one-element or zero-length arrays should
no longer be used[2].
This code was transformed with the help of Coccinelle:
(linux-5.19-rc2$ spatch --jobs $(getconf _NPROCESSORS_ONLN) --sp-file script.cocci --include-headers --dir . > output.patch)
@@
identifier S, member, array;
type T1, T2;
@@
struct S {
...
T1 member;
T2 array[
- 0
];
};
-fstrict-flex-arrays=3 is coming and we need to land these changes
to prevent issues like these in the short future:
../fs/minix/dir.c:337:3: warning: 'strcpy' will always overflow; destination buffer has size 0,
but the source string has length 2 (including NUL byte) [-Wfortify-source]
strcpy(de3->name, ".");
^
Since these are all [0] to [] changes, the risk to UAPI is nearly zero. If
this breaks anything, we can use a union with a new member name.

Many user space API headers are missing licensing information, which
makes it hard for compliance tools to determine the correct license.
By default are files without license information under the default
license of the kernel, which is GPLV2. Marking them GPLV2 would exclude
them from being included in non GPLV2 code, which is obviously not
intended. The user space API headers fall under the syscall exception
which is in the kernels COPYING file:
NOTE! This copyright does *not* cover user programs that use kernel
services by normal system calls - this is merely considered normal use
of the kernel, and does *not* fall under the heading of "derived work".
otherwise syscall usage would not be possible.
Update the files which contain no license information with an SPDX
license identifier. The chosen identifier is 'GPL-2.0 WITH
Linux-syscall-note' which is the officially assigned identifier for the
Linux syscall exception. SPDX license identifiers are a legally binding
shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text.
This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart and
Philippe Ombredanne. See the previous patch in this series for the
methodology of how this patch was researched.

Allow setups with large MTU to send large sync packets by
adding sync_maxlen parameter. The default value is now based
on MTU but no more than 1500 for compatibility reasons.
To avoid problems if MTU changes allow fragmentation by
sending packets with DF=0. Problem reported by Dan Carpenter.

IPVS stats are limited to 2^(32-10) conns/s and packets/s,
2^(32-5) bytes/s. It is time to use 64 bits:
* Change all conn/packet kernel counters to 64-bit and update
them in u64_stats_update_{begin,end} section
* In kernel use struct ip_vs_kstats instead of the user-space
struct ip_vs_stats_user and use new func ip_vs_export_stats_user
to export it to sockopt users to preserve compatibility with
32-bit values
* Rename cpu counters "ustats" to "cnt"
* To netlink users provide additionally 64-bit stats:
IPVS_SVC_ATTR_STATS64 and IPVS_DEST_ATTR_STATS64. Old stats
remain for old binaries.
* We can use ip_vs_copy_stats in ip_vs_stats_percpu_show

This is necessary to support heterogeneous pools. For example, if you have
an ipv6 addressed network, you'll want to be able to forward ipv4 traffic
into it.
This patch enforces that destination address family is the same as service
family, as none of the forwarding mechanisms support anything else.
For the old setsockopt mechanism, we simply set the dest address family to
AF_INET as we do with the service.

By default the SH scheduler rejects connections that are hashed onto a
realserver of weight 0. This patch adds a flag to make SH choose a
different realserver in this case, instead of rejecting the connection.
The patch also adds a flag to make SH include the source port (TCP, UDP,
SCTP) in the hash as well as the source address. This basically allows
for deterministic round-robin load balancing (i.e., where any director
in a cluster of directors with identical config will send the same
packet the same way).
The flags are service flags (IP_VS_SVC_F_SCHED*) so that these options
can be set per service. They are set using a new option to ipvsadm.

Some service fields are in network order:
- netmask: used once in network order and also as prefix len for IPv6
- port
Other parameters are in host order:
- struct ip_vs_flags: flags and mask moved between user and kernel only
- sync state: moved between user and kernel only
- syncid: sent over network as single octet
