Jesse Gross f579668406 openvswitch: Add support for Geneve tunneling.
The Openvswitch implementation is completely agnostic to the options
that are in use and can handle newly defined options without
further work. It does this by simply matching on a byte array
of options and allowing userspace to setup flows on this array.

Jesse Gross 6b205b2ca1 openvswitch: Factor out allocation and verification of actions.
As the size of the flow key grows, it can put some pressure on the
stack. This is particularly true in ovs_flow_cmd_set(), which needs several
copies of the key on the stack. One of those uses is logically separate,
so this factors it out to reduce stack pressure and improve readibility.

Jesse Gross 67fa034194 openvswitch: Add support for matching on OAM packets.
Some tunnel formats have mechanisms for indicating that packets are
OAM frames that should be handled specially (either as high priority or
not forwarded beyond an endpoint). This provides support for allowing
those types of packets to be matched.

Samuel Gauthier 9b67aa4a82 openvswitch: restore OVS_FLOW_CMD_NEW notifications
Since commit fb5d1e9e12 ("openvswitch: Build flow cmd netlink reply only if needed."),
the new flows are not notified to the listeners of OVS_FLOW_MCGROUP.

This commit fixes the problem by using the genl function, ie
genl_has_listerners() instead of netlink_has_listeners().

Andy Zhou 971427f353 openvswitch: Add recirc and hash action.
Recirc action allows a packet to reenter openvswitch processing.
currently openvswitch lookup flow for packet received and execute
set of actions on that packet, with help of recirc action we can
process/modify the packet and recirculate it back in openvswitch
for another pass.

OVS hash action calculates 5-tupple hash and set hash in flow-key
hash. This can be used along with recirculation for distributing
packets among different ports for bond devices.
For example:
OVS bonding can use following actions:
Match on: bond flow; Action: hash, recirc(id)
Match on: recirc-id == id and hash lower bits == a;
          Action: output port_bond_a

Alex Wang 4a46b24e14 openvswitch: Use exact lookup for flow_get and flow_del.
Due to the race condition in userspace, there is chance that two
overlapping megaflows could be installed in datapath.  And this
causes userspace unable to delete the less inclusive megaflow flow
even after it timeout, since the flow_del logic will stop at the
first match of masked flow.

This commit fixes the bug by making the kernel flow_del and flow_get
logic check all masks in that case.

Jarno Rajahalme 0e9796b4af openvswitch: Reduce locking requirements.
Reduce and clarify locking requirements for ovs_flow_cmd_alloc_info(),
ovs_flow_cmd_fill_info() and ovs_flow_cmd_build_info().

A datapath pointer is available only when holding a lock.  Change
ovs_flow_cmd_fill_info() and ovs_flow_cmd_build_info() to take a
dp_ifindex directly, rather than a datapath pointer that is then
(only) used to get the dp_ifindex.  This is useful, since the
dp_ifindex is available even when the datapath pointer is not, both
before and after taking a lock, which makes further critical section
reduction possible.

Make ovs_flow_cmd_alloc_info() take an 'acts' argument instead a
'flow' pointer.  This allows some future patches to do the allocation
before acquiring the flow pointer.

The locking requirements after this patch are:

ovs_flow_cmd_alloc_info(): May be called without locking, must not be
called while holding the RCU read lock (due to memory allocation).
If 'acts' belong to a flow in the flow table, however, then the
caller must hold ovs_mutex.

ovs_flow_cmd_fill_info(): Either ovs_mutex or RCU read lock must be held.

ovs_flow_cmd_build_info(): This calls both of the above, so the caller
must hold ovs_mutex.

Move most memory allocations away from the ovs_mutex critical

changing that would require major refactoring. Also, vports are

Change ovs_dp_cmd_get() now only takes the rcu_read_lock(), rather
than ovs_lock(), as nothing need to be changed.  This was done by
ovs_vport_cmd_get() already.

Cost of upcall is significantly reduced from:
+   7.48%       vhost-8471  [k] memcpy
+   5.57%     ovs-vswitchd  [k] memcpy
+   2.81%       vhost-8471  [k] csum_partial_copy_generic

to:
+   5.72%     ovs-vswitchd  [k] memcpy
+   3.32%       vhost-5153  [k] memcpy
+   0.68%       vhost-5153  [k] skb_zerocopy

Pravin B Shelar e298e50570 openvswitch: Per cpu flow stats.
With mega flow implementation ovs flow can be shared between
multiple CPUs which makes stats updates highly contended
operation. This patch uses per-CPU stats in cases where a flow
is likely to be shared (if there is a wildcard in the 5-tuple
and therefore likely to be spread by RSS). In other situations,
it uses the current strategy, saving memory and allocation time.
