Add 'clone' action to kernel datapath by using existing functions.
When actions within clone don't modify the current flow, the flow
key is not cloned before executing clone actions.

This reverts commit ceaa001a17.
The OVS_TUNNEL_KEY_ATTR_ERSPAN_OPTS attr should be designed
as a nested attribute to support all ERSPAN v1 and v2's fields.
The current attr is a be32 supporting only one field. Thus, this
patch reverts it and later patch will redo it using nested attr.

This patch allows reliable identification of netdevice interfaces connected
to openvswitch bridges. In particular, user space queries the netdev
interfaces belonging to the ports for statistics, up/down state, etc.
Datapath dump needs to provide enough information for the user space to be
able to do that.
Currently, only interface names are returned. This is not sufficient, as
openvswitch allows its ports to be in different name spaces and the
interface name is valid only in its name space. What is needed and generally
used in other netlink APIs, is the pair ifindex+netnsid.
The solution is addition of the ifindex+netnsid pair (or only ifindex if in
the same name space) to vport get/dump operation.
On request side, ideally the ifindex+netnsid pair could be used to
get/set/del the corresponding vport. This is not implemented by this patch
and can be added later if needed.

Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
Many user space API headers have licensing information, which is either
incomplete, badly formatted or just a shorthand for referring to the
license under which the file is supposed to be. This makes it hard for
compliance tools to determine the correct license.
Update these files with an SPDX license identifier. The identifier was
chosen based on the license information in the file.
GPL/LGPL licensed headers get the matching GPL/LGPL SPDX license
identifier with the added 'WITH Linux-syscall-note' exception, which is
the officially assigned exception identifier for the kernel syscall
exception:
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".
This exception makes it possible to include GPL headers into non GPL
code, without confusing license compliance tools.
Headers which have either explicit dual licensing or are just licensed
under a non GPL license are updated with the corresponding SPDX
identifier and the GPLv2 with syscall exception identifier. The format
is:
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR SPDX-ID-OF-OTHER-LICENSE)
SPDX license identifiers are a legally binding shorthand, which can be
used instead of the full boiler plate text. The update does not remove
existing license information as this has to be done on a case by case
basis and the copyright holders might have to be consulted. This will
happen in a separate step.

Add a new optional conntrack action attribute OVS_CT_ATTR_EVENTMASK,
which can be used in conjunction with the commit flag
(OVS_CT_ATTR_COMMIT) to set the mask of bits specifying which
conntrack events (IPCT_*) should be delivered via the Netfilter
netlink multicast groups. Default behavior depends on the system
configuration, but typically a lot of events are delivered. This can be
very chatty for the NFNLGRP_CONNTRACK_UPDATE group, even if only some
types of events are of interest.
Netfilter core init_conntrack() adds the event cache extension, so we
only need to set the ctmask value. However, if the system is
configured without support for events, the setting will be skipped due
to extension not being found.

With the introduction of open flow 'clone' action, the OVS user space
can now translate the 'clone' action into kernel datapath 'sample'
action, with 100% probability, to ensure that the clone semantics,
which is that the packet seen by the clone action is the same as the
packet seen by the action after clone, is faithfully carried out
in the datapath.
While the sample action in the datpath has the matching semantics,
its implementation is only optimized for its original use.
Specifically, there are two limitation: First, there is a 3 level of
nesting restriction, enforced at the flow downloading time. This
limit turns out to be too restrictive for the 'clone' use case.
Second, the implementation avoid recursive call only if the sample
action list has a single userspace action.
The main optimization implemented in this series removes the static
nesting limit check, instead, implement the run time recursion limit
check, and recursion avoidance similar to that of the 'recirc' action.
This optimization solve both #1 and #2 issues above.
One related optimization attempts to avoid copying flow key as
long as the actions enclosed does not change the flow key. The
detection is performed only once at the flow downloading time.
Another related optimization is to rewrite the action list
at flow downloading time in order to save the fast path from parsing
the sample action list in its original form repeatedly.

Stateful network admission policy may allow connections to one
direction and reject connections initiated in the other direction.
After policy change it is possible that for a new connection an
overlapping conntrack entry already exists, where the original
direction of the existing connection is opposed to the new
connection's initial packet.
Most importantly, conntrack state relating to the current packet gets
the "reply" designation based on whether the original direction tuple
or the reply direction tuple matched. If this "directionality" is
wrong w.r.t. to the stateful network admission policy it may happen
that packets in neither direction are correctly admitted.
This patch adds a new "force commit" option to the OVS conntrack
action that checks the original direction of an existing conntrack
entry. If that direction is opposed to the current packet, the
existing conntrack entry is deleted and a new one is subsequently
created in the correct direction.

Add the fields of the conntrack original direction 5-tuple to struct
sw_flow_key. The new fields are initially marked as non-existent, and
are populated whenever a conntrack action is executed and either finds
or generates a conntrack entry. This means that these fields exist
for all packets that were not rejected by conntrack as untrackable.
The original tuple fields in the sw_flow_key are filled from the
original direction tuple of the conntrack entry relating to the
current packet, or from the original direction tuple of the master
conntrack entry, if the current conntrack entry has a master.
Generally, expected connections of connections having an assigned
helper (e.g., FTP), have a master conntrack entry.
The main purpose of the new conntrack original tuple fields is to
allow matching on them for policy decision purposes, with the premise
that the admissibility of tracked connections reply packets (as well
as original direction packets), and both direction packets of any
related connections may be based on ACL rules applying to the master
connection's original direction 5-tuple. This also makes it easier to
make policy decisions when the actual packet headers might have been
transformed by NAT, as the original direction 5-tuple represents the
packet headers before any such transformation.
When using the original direction 5-tuple the admissibility of return
and/or related packets need not be based on the mere existence of a
conntrack entry, allowing separation of admission policy from the
established conntrack state. While existence of a conntrack entry is
required for admission of the return or related packets, policy
changes can render connections that were initially admitted to be
rejected or dropped afterwards. If the admission of the return and
related packets was based on mere conntrack state (e.g., connection
being in an established state), a policy change that would make the
connection rejected or dropped would need to find and delete all
conntrack entries affected by such a change. When using the original
direction 5-tuple matching the affected conntrack entries can be
allowed to time out instead, as the established state of the
connection would not need to be the basis for packet admission any
more.
It should be noted that the directionality of related connections may
be the same or different than that of the master connection, and
neither the original direction 5-tuple nor the conntrack state bits
carry this information. If needed, the directionality of the master
connection can be stored in master's conntrack mark or labels, which
are automatically inherited by the expected related connections.
The fact that neither ARP nor ND packets are trackable by conntrack
allows mutual exclusion between ARP/ND and the new conntrack original
tuple fields. Hence, the IP addresses are overlaid in union with ARP
and ND fields. This allows the sw_flow_key to not grow much due to
this patch, but it also means that we must be careful to never use the
new key fields with ARP or ND packets. ARP is easy to distinguish and
keep mutually exclusive based on the ethernet type, but ND being an
ICMPv6 protocol requires a bit more attention.

The commit f2a4d086ed ("openvswitch: Add packet truncation support.")
introduces packet truncation before sending to userspace upcall receiver.
This patch passes up the skb->len before truncation so that the upcall
receiver knows the original packet size. Potentially this will be used
by sFlow, where OVS translates sFlow config header=N to a sample action,
truncating packet to N byte in kernel datapath. Thus, only N bytes instead
of full-packet size is copied from kernel to userspace, saving the
kernel-to-userspace bandwidth.

Expose the kernel connection tracker via OVS. Userspace components can
make use of the CT action to populate the connection state (ct_state)
field for a flow. This state can be subsequently matched.
Exposed connection states are OVS_CS_F_*:
- NEW (0x01) - Beginning of a new connection.
- ESTABLISHED (0x02) - Part of an existing connection.
- RELATED (0x04) - Related to an established connection.
- INVALID (0x20) - Could not track the connection for this packet.
- REPLY_DIR (0x40) - This packet is in the reply direction for the flow.
- TRACKED (0x80) - This packet has been sent through conntrack.
When the CT action is executed by itself, it will send the packet
through the connection tracker and populate the ct_state field with one
or more of the connection state flags above. The CT action will always
set the TRACKED bit.
When the COMMIT flag is passed to the conntrack action, this specifies
that information about the connection should be stored. This allows
subsequent packets for the same (or related) connections to be
correlated with this connection. Sending subsequent packets for the
connection through conntrack allows the connection tracker to consider
the packets as ESTABLISHED, RELATED, and/or REPLY_DIR.
The CT action may optionally take a zone to track the flow within. This
allows connections with the same 5-tuple to be kept logically separate
from connections in other zones. If the zone is specified, then the
"ct_zone" match field will be subsequently populated with the zone id.
IP fragments are handled by transparently assembling them as part of the
CT action. The maximum received unit (MRU) size is tracked so that
refragmentation can occur during output.
IP frag handling contributed by Andy Zhou.
Based on original design by Justin Pettit.

Rename the tunnel metadata data structures currently internal to
OVS and make them generic for use by all IP tunnels.
Both structures are kernel internal and will stay that way. Their
members are exposed to user space through individual Netlink
attributes by OVS. It will therefore be possible to extend/modify
these structures without affecting user ABI.

If new optional attribute OVS_USERSPACE_ATTR_ACTIONS is added to an
OVS_ACTION_ATTR_USERSPACE action, then include the datapath actions
in the upcall.
This Directly associates the sampled packet with the path it takes
through the virtual switch. Path information currently includes mangling,
encapsulation and decapsulation actions for tunneling protocols GRE,
VXLAN, Geneve, MPLS and QinQ, but this extension requires no further
changes to accommodate datapath actions that may be added in the
future.
Adding path information enhances visibility into complex virtual
networks.

OVS userspace already probes the openvswitch kernel module for
OVS_ACTION_ATTR_SET_MASKED support. This patch adds the kernel module
implementation of masked set actions.
The existing set action sets many fields at once. When only a subset
of the IP header fields, for example, should be modified, all the IP
fields need to be exact matched so that the other field values can be
copied to the set action. A masked set action allows modification of
an arbitrary subset of the supported header bits without requiring the
rest to be matched.
Masked set action is now supported for all writeable key types, except
for the tunnel key. The set tunnel action is an exception as any
input tunnel info is cleared before action processing starts, so there
is no tunnel info to mask.
The kernel module converts all (non-tunnel) set actions to masked set
actions. This makes action processing more uniform, and results in
less branching and duplicating the action processing code. When
returning actions to userspace, the fully masked set actions are
converted back to normal set actions. We use a kernel internal action
code to be able to tell the userspace provided and converted masked
set actions apart.

Previously, flows were manipulated by userspace specifying a full,
unmasked flow key. This adds significant burden onto flow
serialization/deserialization, particularly when dumping flows.
This patch adds an alternative way to refer to flows using a
variable-length "unique flow identifier" (UFID). At flow setup time,
userspace may specify a UFID for a flow, which is stored with the flow
and inserted into a separate table for lookup, in addition to the
standard flow table. Flows created using a UFID must be fetched or
deleted using the UFID.
All flow dump operations may now be made more terse with OVS_UFID_F_*
flags. For example, the OVS_UFID_F_OMIT_KEY flag allows responses to
omit the flow key from a datapath operation if the flow has a
corresponding UFID. This significantly reduces the time spent assembling
and transacting netlink messages. With all OVS_UFID_F_OMIT_* flags
enabled, the datapath only returns the UFID and statistics for each flow
during flow dump, increasing ovs-vswitchd revalidator performance by 40%
or more.

Introduces support for the group policy extension to the VXLAN virtual
port. The extension is disabled by default and only enabled if the user
has provided the respective configuration.
ovs-vsctl add-port br0 vxlan0 -- \
set Interface vxlan0 type=vxlan options:exts=gbp
The configuration interface to enable the extension is based on a new
attribute OVS_VXLAN_EXT_GBP nested inside OVS_TUNNEL_ATTR_EXTENSION
which can carry additional extensions as needed in the future.
The group policy metadata is stored as binary blob (struct ovs_vxlan_opts)
internally just like Geneve options but transported as nested Netlink
attributes to user space.
Renames the existing TUNNEL_OPTIONS_PRESENT to TUNNEL_GENEVE_OPT with the
binary value kept intact, a new flag TUNNEL_VXLAN_OPT is introduced.
The attributes OVS_TUNNEL_KEY_ATTR_VXLAN_OPTS and existing
OVS_TUNNEL_KEY_ATTR_GENEVE_OPTS are implemented mutually exclusive.

User space is currently sending a OVS_FLOW_ATTR_PROBE for both flow
and packet messages. This leads to an out-of-bounds access in
ovs_packet_cmd_execute() because OVS_FLOW_ATTR_PROBE >
OVS_PACKET_ATTR_MAX.
Introduce a new OVS_PACKET_ATTR_PROBE with the same numeric value
as OVS_FLOW_ATTR_PROBE to grow the range of accepted packet attributes
while maintaining to be binary compatible with existing OVS binaries.

OVS vswitch has extended IPFIX exporter to export tunnel headers
to improve network visibility.
To export this information userspace needs to know egress tunnel
for given packet. By extending packet attributes datapath can
export egress tunnel info for given packet. So that userspace
can ask for egress tunnel info in userspace action. This
information is used to build IPFIX data for given flow.
