In the router, some next hops may reference an encapsulating netdevice,
such as GRE or IPIP. To properly offload these next hops, mlxsw needs to
keep track of whether a given next hop is a regular Ethernet entry, or
an IP-in-IP tunneling entry.
To facilitate this book-keeping, add a type field to struct
mlxsw_sp_nexthop. There is, as of this patch, only one next hop type:
MLXSW_SP_NEXTHOP_TYPE_ETH. Follow-up patches will introduce the IP-in-IP
variant.
There are several places where next hops are initialized in the IPv4
path. Instead of replicating the logic at every one of them, factor it
out to a function mlxsw_sp_nexthop4_type_init(). The corresponding fini
is actually protocol-neutral, so put it to mlxsw_sp_nexthop_type_fini(),
but create a corresponding protocoled _fini function that dispatches to
the protocol-neutral one.
The IPv6 path is simpler, but for symmetry with IPv4, create the same
suite of functions with corresponding logic.

IPv6 counterpart of the previous patch: introduce a function to
determine whether a given route is a gateway route.
The new function takes a mlxsw_sp argument which follow-up patches will
use. Thus mlxsw_sp_fib6_entry_type_set() got that argument as well.

For IPv4 IP-in-IP offload, routes that direct traffic to IP-in-IP
devices need to be considered gateway routes as well. That involves a
bit more logic, so extract the current test to a separate function,
where the logic can be later added.

Loopback RIFs, which will be introduced in a follow-up patch, differ
from other RIFs in that they do not have a FID associated with them.
To support this, demote FID allocation from mlxsw_sp_rif_create to
configure op of the existing RIF types, and likewise the FID release
from mlxsw_sp_rif_destroy to deconfigure op.

Details of individual tunnel types are kept in an array of
mlxsw_sp_ipip_ops objects. Follow-up patches will use the list to
determine whether a constructed RIF should be a loopback, and to decide
whether a next hop references a tunnel.

net: mvpp2: improve the mac address retrieval logic
This series aims at fixing the logic behind the MAC address retrieval in the
PPv2 driver. A possible issue is also fixed in patch 3/3 to introduce fallbacks
when the address given in the device tree isn't valid.
Thanks!

Since v2:

- Rebased on net-next.

When using a mac address described in the device tree, a check is made
to see if it is valid. When it's not, no fallback is defined. This
patches tries to get the mac address from h/w (or use a random one if
the h/w one isn't valid) when the dt mac address isn't valid.

The MAC retrieval logic is using a variable to store an h/w stored mac
address and checks this mac against invalid ones before using it. But
the mac address is only read from h/w when using PPv2.1. So when using
PPv2.2 it defaults to its init state.
This patches fixes the logic to only check if the h/w mac is valid when
actually retrieving a mac from h/w.

Netfilter updates for net-next
The following patchset contains Netfilter updates for your net-next
tree. Basically, updates to the conntrack core, enhancements for
nf_tables, conversion of netfilter hooks from linked list to array to
improve memory locality and asorted improvements for the Netfilter
codebase. More specifically, they are:
1) Add expection to hashes after timer initialization to prevent
access from another CPU that walks on the hashes and calls
del_timer(), from Florian Westphal.
2) Don't update nf_tables chain counters from hot path, this is only
used by the x_tables compatibility layer.
3) Get rid of nested rcu_read_lock() calls from netfilter hook path.
Hooks are always guaranteed to run from rcu read side, so remove
nested rcu_read_lock() where possible. Patch from Taehee Yoo.
4) nf_tables new ruleset generation notifications include PID and name
of the process that has updated the ruleset, from Phil Sutter.
5) Use skb_header_pointer() from nft_fib, so we can reuse this code from
the nf_family netdev family. Patch from Pablo M. Bermudo.
6) Add support for nft_fib in nf_tables netdev family, also from Pablo.
7) Use deferrable workqueue for conntrack garbage collection, to reduce
power consumption, from Patch from Subash Abhinov Kasiviswanathan.
8) Add nf_ct_expect_iterate_net() helper and use it. From Florian
Westphal.
9) Call nf_ct_unconfirmed_destroy only from cttimeout, from Florian.
10) Drop references on conntrack removal path when skbuffs has escaped via
nfqueue, from Florian.
11) Don't queue packets to nfqueue with dying conntrack, from Florian.
12) Constify nf_hook_ops structure, from Florian.
13) Remove neededlessly branch in nf_tables trace code, from Phil Sutter.
14) Add nla_strdup(), from Phil Sutter.
15) Rise nf_tables objects name size up to 255 chars, people want to use
DNS names, so increase this according to what RFC 1035 specifies.
Patch series from Phil Sutter.
16) Kill nf_conntrack_default_on, it's broken. Default on conntrack hook
registration on demand, suggested by Eric Dumazet, patch from Florian.
17) Remove unused variables in compat_copy_entry_from_user both in
ip_tables and arp_tables code. Patch from Taehee Yoo.
18) Constify struct nf_conntrack_l4proto, from Julia Lawall.
19) Constify nf_loginfo structure, also from Julia.
20) Use a single rb root in connlimit, from Taehee Yoo.
21) Remove unused netfilter_queue_init() prototype, from Taehee Yoo.
22) Use audit_log() instead of open-coding it, from Geliang Tang.
23) Allow to mangle tcp options via nft_exthdr, from Florian.
24) Allow to fetch TCP MSS from nft_rt, from Florian. This includes
a fix for a miscalculation of the minimal length.
25) Simplify branch logic in h323 helper, from Nick Desaulniers.
26) Calculate netlink attribute size for conntrack tuple at compile
time, from Florian.
27) Remove protocol name field from nf_conntrack_{l3,l4}proto structure.
From Florian.
28) Remove holes in nf_conntrack_l4proto structure, so it becomes
smaller. From Florian.
29) Get rid of print_tuple() indirection for /proc conntrack listing.
Place all the code in net/netfilter/nf_conntrack_standalone.c.
Patch from Florian.
30) Do not built in print_conntrack() if CONFIG_NF_CONNTRACK_PROCFS is
off. From Florian.
31) Constify most nf_conntrack_{l3,l4}proto helper functions, from
Florian.
32) Fix broken indentation in ebtables extensions, from Colin Ian King.
33) Fix several harmless sparse warning, from Florian.
34) Convert netfilter hook infrastructure to use array for better memory
locality, joint work done by Florian and Aaron Conole. Moreover, add
some instrumentation to debug this.
35) Batch nf_unregister_net_hooks() calls, to call synchronize_net once
per batch, from Florian.
36) Get rid of noisy logging in ICMPv6 conntrack helper, from Florian.
37) Get rid of obsolete NFDEBUG() instrumentation, from Varsha Rao.
38) Remove unused code in the generic protocol tracker, from Davide
Caratti.

time allow to make it fit in this merge window.

As of current design, in each NAPI, only a single UMR WQE
completion could be available in the completion queue of the
the internal control operations (ICO) send queue, in addition
to nop operations that require no actions upon completion.
This renders the consume index obsolete, as the wqe_counter
field in CQE is sufficient.
This helps removing a memory barrier, and obsoletes the need
for tracking the num_wqebbs to update the consumer counter.

Instead of tracking wmem_queued and sk_mem_charge by incrementing
in the verdict SK_REDIRECT paths and decrementing in the tx work
path use skb_set_owner_w and sock_writeable helpers. This solves
a few issues with the current code. First, in SK_REDIRECT inc on
sk_wmem_queued and sk_mem_charge were being done without the peers
sock lock being held. Under stress this can result in accounting
errors when tx work and/or multiple verdict decisions are working
on the peer psock.
Additionally, this cleans up the code because we can rely on the
default destructor to decrement memory accounting on kfree_skb. Also
this will trigger sk_write_space when space becomes available on
kfree_skb() which wasn't happening before and prevent __sk_free
from being called until all in-flight packets are completed.
