Now that we depend on rcu_call() and synchronize_rcu() to also wait
for preempt_disabled region to complete the rcu read critical section
in __dev_map_flush() is no longer required. Except in a few special
cases in drivers that need it for other reasons.
These originally ensured the map reference was safe while a map was
also being free'd. And additionally that bpf program updates via
ndo_bpf did not happen while flush updates were in flight. But flush
by new rules can only be called from preempt-disabled NAPI context.
The synchronize_rcu from the map free path and the rcu_call from the
delete path will ensure the reference there is safe. So lets remove
the rcu_read_lock and rcu_read_unlock pair to avoid any confusion
around how this is being protected.
If the rcu_read_lock was required it would mean errors in the above
logic and the original patch would also be wrong.
Now that we have done above we put the rcu_read_lock in the driver
code where it is needed in a driver dependent way. I think this
helps readability of the code so we know where and why we are
taking read locks. Most drivers will not need rcu_read_locks here
and further XDP drivers already have rcu_read_locks in their code
paths for reading xdp programs on RX side so this makes it symmetric
where we don't have half of rcu critical sections define in driver
and the other half in devmap.

Since the bulk queue used by XDP_REDIRECT now lives in struct net_device,
we can re-use the bulking for the non-map version of the bpf_redirect()
helper. This is a simple matter of having xdp_do_redirect_slow() queue the
frame on the bulk queue instead of sending it out with __bpf_tx_xdp().
Unfortunately we can't make the bpf_redirect() helper return an error if
the ifindex doesn't exit (as bpf_redirect_map() does), because we don't
have a reference to the network namespace of the ingress device at the time
the helper is called. So we have to leave it as-is and keep the device
lookup in xdp_do_redirect_slow().
Since this leaves less reason to have the non-map redirect code in a
separate function, so we get rid of the xdp_do_redirect_slow() function
entirely. This does lose us the tracepoint disambiguation, but fortunately
the xdp_redirect and xdp_redirect_map tracepoints use the same tracepoint
entry structures. This means both can contain a map index, so we can just
amend the tracepoint definitions so we always emit the xdp_redirect(_err)
tracepoints, but with the map ID only populated if a map is present. This
means we retire the xdp_redirect_map(_err) tracepoints entirely, but keep
the definitions around in case someone is still listening for them.
With this change, the performance of the xdp_redirect sample program goes
from 5Mpps to 8.4Mpps (a 68% increase).
Since the flush functions are no longer map-specific, rename the flush()
functions to drop _map from their names. One of the renamed functions is
the xdp_do_flush_map() callback used in all the xdp-enabled drivers. To
keep from having to update all drivers, use a #define to keep the old name
working, and only update the virtual drivers in this patch.

XDP_TX is similar to XDP_REDIRECT as it essentially redirects packets to
the device itself. XDP_REDIRECT has bulk transmit mechanism to avoid the
heavy cost of indirect call but it also reduces lock acquisition on the
destination device that needs locks like veth and tun.
XDP_TX does not use indirect calls but drivers which require locks can
benefit from the bulk transmit for XDP_TX as well.
This patch introduces bulk transmit mechanism in veth using bulk queue
on stack, and improves XDP_TX performance by about 9%.
Here are single-core/single-flow XDP_TX test results. CPU consumptions
are taken from "perf report --no-child".

Move XDP and napi related fields from veth_priv to newly created veth_rq
structure.
When xdp_frames are enqueued from ndo_xdp_xmit and XDP_TX, rxq is
selected by current cpu.
When skbs are enqueued from the peer device, rxq is one to one mapping
of its peer txq. This way we have a restriction that the number of rxqs
must not less than the number of peer txqs, but leave the possibility to
achieve bulk skb xmit in the future because txq lock would make it
possible to remove rxq ptr_ring lock.

This allows further redirection of xdp_frames like
NIC -> veth--veth -> veth--veth
(XDP) (XDP) (XDP)
The intermediate XDP, redirecting packets from NIC to the other veth,
reuses xdp_mem_info from NIC so that page recycling of the NIC works on
the destination veth's XDP.
In this way return_frame is not fully guarded by NAPI, since another
NAPI handler on another cpu may use the same xdp_mem_info concurrently.
Thus disable napi_direct by xdp_set_return_frame_no_direct() during the
NAPI context.

This allows NIC's XDP to redirect packets to veth. The destination veth
device enqueues redirected packets to the napi ring of its peer, then
they are processed by XDP on its peer veth device.
This can be thought as calling another XDP program by XDP program using
REDIRECT, when the peer enables driver XDP.
Note that when the peer veth device does not set driver xdp, redirected
packets will be dropped because the peer is not ready for NAPI.
v4:
- Don't use xdp_ok_fwd_dev() because checking IFF_UP is not necessary.
Add comments about it and check only MTU.

This is the basic implementation of veth driver XDP.
Incoming packets are sent from the peer veth device in the form of skb,
so this is generally doing the same thing as generic XDP.
This itself is not so useful, but a starting point to implement other
useful veth XDP features like TX and REDIRECT.
This introduces NAPI when XDP is enabled, because XDP is now heavily
relies on NAPI context. Use ptr_ring to emulate NIC ring. Tx function
enqueues packets to the ring and peer NAPI handler drains the ring.
Currently only one ring is allocated for each veth device, so it does
not scale on multiqueue env. This can be resolved by allocating rings
on the per-queue basis later.
Note that NAPI is not used but netif_rx is used when XDP is not loaded,
so this does not change the default behaviour.
v6:
- Check skb->len only when allocation is needed.
- Add __GFP_NOWARN to alloc_page() as it can be triggered by external
events.
v3:
- Fix race on closing the device.
- Add extack messages in ndo_bpf.
v2:
- Squashed with the patch adding NAPI.
- Implement adjust_tail.
- Don't acquire consumer lock because it is guarded by NAPI.
- Make poll_controller noop since it is unnecessary.

There are number of problems with configuration peer
network device in absence of IFLA_VETH_PEER attributes
where attributes for main network device shared with
peer.
First it is not feasible to configure both network
devices with same MAC address since this makes
communication in such configuration problematic.
This case can be reproduced with following sequence:
# ip link add address 02:11:22:33:44:55 type veth
# ip li sh
...
26: veth0@veth1: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,M-DOWN> mtu 1500 qdisc \

noop state DOWN mode DEFAULT qlen 1000
link/ether 00:11:22:33:44:55 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff
Second it is not possible to register both main and
peer network devices with same name, that happens
when name for main interface is given with IFLA_IFNAME
and same attribute reused for peer.
This case can be reproduced with following sequence:
# ip link add dev veth1a type veth

Network devices can allocate reasources and private memory using
netdev_ops->ndo_init(). However, the release of these resources
can occur in one of two different places.
Either netdev_ops->ndo_uninit() or netdev->destructor().
The decision of which operation frees the resources depends upon
whether it is necessary for all netdev refs to be released before it
is safe to perform the freeing.
netdev_ops->ndo_uninit() presumably can occur right after the
NETDEV_UNREGISTER notifier completes and the unicast and multicast
address lists are flushed.
netdev->destructor(), on the other hand, does not run until the
netdev references all go away.
Further complicating the situation is that netdev->destructor()
almost universally does also a free_netdev().
This creates a problem for the logic in register_netdevice().
Because all callers of register_netdevice() manage the freeing
of the netdev, and invoke free_netdev(dev) if register_netdevice()
fails.
If netdev_ops->ndo_init() succeeds, but something else fails inside
of register_netdevice(), it does call ndo_ops->ndo_uninit(). But
it is not able to invoke netdev->destructor().
This is because netdev->destructor() will do a free_netdev() and
then the caller of register_netdevice() will do the same.
However, this means that the resources that would normally be released
by netdev->destructor() will not be.
Over the years drivers have added local hacks to deal with this, by
invoking their destructor parts by hand when register_netdevice()
fails.
Many drivers do not try to deal with this, and instead we have leaks.
Let's close this hole by formalizing the distinction between what
private things need to be freed up by netdev->destructor() and whether
the driver needs unregister_netdevice() to perform the free_netdev().
netdev->priv_destructor() performs all actions to free up the private
resources that used to be freed by netdev->destructor(), except for
free_netdev().
netdev->needs_free_netdev is a boolean that indicates whether
free_netdev() should be done at the end of unregister_netdevice().
Now, register_netdevice() can sanely release all resources after
ndo_ops->ndo_init() succeeds, by invoking both ndo_ops->ndo_uninit()
and netdev->priv_destructor().
And at the end of unregister_netdevice(), we invoke
netdev->priv_destructor() and optionally call free_netdev().

Packets that arrive from real hardware devices have ip_summed ==
CHECKSUM_UNNECESSARY if the hardware verified the checksums, or
CHECKSUM_NONE if the packet is bad or it was unable to verify it. The
current version of veth will replace CHECKSUM_NONE with
CHECKSUM_UNNECESSARY, which causes corrupt packets routed from hardware to
a veth device to be delivered to the application. This caused applications
at Twitter to receive corrupt data when network hardware was corrupting
packets.
We believe this was added as an optimization to skip computing and
verifying checksums for communication between containers. However, locally
generated packets have ip_summed == CHECKSUM_PARTIAL, so the code as
written does nothing for them. As far as we can tell, after removing this
code, these packets are transmitted from one stack to another unmodified
(tcpdump shows invalid checksums on both sides, as expected), and they are
delivered correctly to applications. We didn’t test every possible network
configuration, but we tried a few common ones such as bridging containers,
using NAT between the host and a container, and routing from hardware
devices to containers. We have effectively deployed this in production at
Twitter (by disabling RX checksum offloading on veth devices).
This code dates back to the first version of the driver, commit
<e314dbdc1c0dc6a548ecf> ("[NET]: Virtual ethernet device driver"), so I
suspect this bug occurred mostly because the driver API has evolved
significantly since then. Commit <0b7967503dc97864f283a> ("net/veth: Fix
packet checksumming") (in December 2010) fixed this for packets that get
created locally and sent to hardware devices, by not changing
CHECKSUM_PARTIAL. However, the same issue still occurs for packets coming
in from hardware devices.

Now that the peer netns is advertised in rtnl messages, we can set this property
so that IFLA_LINK will advertise the peer ifindex. It allows the userland to get
the full veth configuration.

It is trivial to add netpoll support to veth, since
it is not a stacked device, we don't need to setup and
clean up netpoll.

The mvneta.c conflict is a case of overlapping changes,
a conversion to devm_ioremap_resource() vs. a conversion
to netdev_alloc_pcpu_stats.

Replace the bh safe variant with the hard irq safe variant.
We need a hard irq safe variant to deal with netpoll transmitting
packets from hard irq context, and we need it in most if not all of
the places using the bh safe variant.
Except on 32bit uni-processor the code is exactly the same so don't
bother with a bh variant, just have a hard irq safe variant that
everyone can use.

The SIT driver conflict consists of a bug fix being done by hand
in 'net' (missing u64_stats_init()) whilst in 'net-next' a helper
was created (netdev_alloc_pcpu_stats()) which takes care of this.
The two wireless conflicts were overlapping changes.

Even if we create a stacked vlan interface such as veth0.10.20, it sends
single tagged frames (tagged with only vid 10).
Because vlan_features of a veth interface has the
NETIF_F_HW_VLAN_[CTAG/STAG]_TX bits, veth0.10 also has that feature, so
dev_hard_start_xmit(veth0.10) doesn't call __vlan_put_tag() and
vlan_dev_hard_start_xmit(veth0.10) overwrites vlan_tci.
This prevents us from using a combination of 802.1ad and 802.1Q
in containers, etc.
