Increment rx_otherhost_dropped counter when packet dropped due to
mismatched dest MAC addr.
An example when this drop can occur is when manually crafting raw
packets that will be consumed by a user space application via a tap
device. For testing purposes local traffic was generated using trafgen
for the client and netcat to start a server
Tested: Created 2 netns, sent 1 packet using trafgen from 1 to the other
with "{eth(daddr=$INCORRECT_MAC...}", verified that iproute2 showed the
counter was incremented. (Also had to modify iproute2 to show the stat,
additional patch for that coming next.)

This patch adds support for encapsulating IPv4/IPv6 within GENEVE.
In order to use this, a new IFLA_GENEVE_INNER_PROTO_INHERIT flag needs
to be provided at device creation. This property cannot be changed for
the time being.
In case IP traffic is received on a non-tun device the drop count is
increased.

Adding GTP device through ip link creates the situation where
there is no userspace daemon which would handle GTP messages
(Echo Request for example). GTP-U instance which would not respond
to echo requests would violate GTP specification.
When GTP packet arrives with GTP_ECHO_REQ message type,
GTP_ECHO_RSP is send to the sender. GTP_ECHO_RSP message
should contain information element with GTPIE_RECOVERY tag and
restart counter value. For GTPv1 restart counter is not used
and should be equal to 0, for GTPv0 restart counter contains
information provided from userspace(IFLA_GTP_RESTART_COUNT).

Currently, when the user wants to create GTP device, he has to
provide file handles to the sockets created in userspace (IFLA_GTP_FD0,
IFLA_GTP_FD1). This behaviour is not ideal, considering the option of
adding support for GTP device creation through ip link. Ip link
application is not a good place to create such sockets.
This patch allows to create GTP device without providing
IFLA_GTP_FD0 and IFLA_GTP_FD1 arguments. If the user sets
IFLA_GTP_CREATE_SOCKETS attribute, then GTP module takes care
of creating UDP sockets by itself. Sockets are created with the
commonly known UDP ports used for GTP protocol (GTP0_PORT and
GTP1U_PORT). In this case we don't have to provide encap_destroy
because no extra deinitialization is needed, everything is covered
by udp_tunnel_sock_release.
Note: GTP instance created with only this change applied, does
not handle GTP Echo Requests. This is implemented in the following
patch.

The offloaded HW stats are designed to allow per-netdevice enablement and
disablement. Add an attribute, IFLA_STATS_SET_OFFLOAD_XSTATS_L3_STATS,
which should be carried by the RTM_SETSTATS message, and expresses a desire
to toggle L3 offload xstats on or off.
As part of the above, add an exported function rtnl_offload_xstats_notify()
that drivers can use when they have installed or deinstalled the counters
backing the HW stats.
At this point, it is possible to enable, disable and query L3 offload
xstats on netdevices. (However there is no driver actually implementing
these.)

Add a new IFLA_STATS_LINK_OFFLOAD_XSTATS child attribute,
IFLA_OFFLOAD_XSTATS_L3_STATS, to carry statistics for traffic that takes
place in a HW router.
The offloaded HW stats are designed to allow per-netdevice enablement and
disablement. Additionally, as a netdevice is configured, it may become or
cease being suitable for binding of a HW counter. Both of these aspects
need to be communicated to the userspace. To that end, add another child
attribute, IFLA_OFFLOAD_XSTATS_HW_S_INFO:
- attr nest IFLA_OFFLOAD_XSTATS_HW_S_INFO
- attr nest IFLA_OFFLOAD_XSTATS_L3_STATS
- attr IFLA_OFFLOAD_XSTATS_HW_S_INFO_REQUEST
- {0,1} as u8
- attr IFLA_OFFLOAD_XSTATS_HW_S_INFO_USED
- {0,1} as u8
Thus this one attribute is a nest that can be used to carry information
about various types of HW statistics, and indexing is very simply done by
wrapping the information for a given statistics suite into the attribute
that carries the suite is the RTM_GETSTATS query. At the same time, because
_HW_S_INFO is nested directly below IFLA_STATS_LINK_OFFLOAD_XSTATS, it is
possible through filtering to request only the metadata about individual
statistics suites, without having to hit the HW to get the actual counters.

Offloading switch device drivers may be able to collect statistics of the
traffic taking place in the HW datapath that pertains to a certain soft
netdevice, such as VLAN. Add the necessary infrastructure to allow exposing
these statistics to the offloaded netdevice in question. The API was shaped
by the following considerations:
- Collection of HW statistics is not free: there may be a finite number of
counters, and the act of counting may have a performance impact. It is
therefore necessary to allow toggling whether HW counting should be done
for any particular SW netdevice.
- As the drivers are loaded and removed, a particular device may get
offloaded and unoffloaded again. At the same time, the statistics values
need to stay monotonic (modulo the eventual 64-bit wraparound),
increasing only to reflect traffic measured in the device.
To that end, the netdevice keeps around a lazily-allocated copy of struct
rtnl_link_stats64. Device drivers then contribute to the values kept
therein at various points. Even as the driver goes away, the struct stays
around to maintain the statistics values.
- Different HW devices may be able to count different things. The
motivation behind this patch in particular is exposure of HW counters on
Nvidia Spectrum switches, where the only practical approach to counting
traffic on offloaded soft netdevices currently is to use router interface
counters, and count L3 traffic. Correspondingly that is the statistics
suite added in this patch.
Other devices may be able to measure different kinds of traffic, and for
that reason, the APIs are built to allow uniform access to different
statistics suites.
- Because soft netdevices and offloading drivers are only loosely bound, a
netdevice uses a notifier chain to communicate with the drivers. Several
new notifiers, NETDEV_OFFLOAD_XSTATS_*, have been added to carry messages
to the offloading drivers.
- Devices can have various conditions for when a particular counter is
available. As the device is configured and reconfigured, the device
offload may become or cease being suitable for counter binding. A
netdevice can use a notifier type NETDEV_OFFLOAD_XSTATS_REPORT_USED to
ping offloading drivers and determine whether anyone currently implements
a given statistics suite. This information can then be propagated to user
space.
When the driver decides to unoffload a netdevice, it can use a
newly-added function, netdev_offload_xstats_report_delta(), to record
outstanding collected statistics, before destroying the HW counter.
This patch adds a helper, call_netdevice_notifiers_info_robust(), for
dispatching a notifier with the possibility of unwind when one of the
consumers bails. Given the wish to eventually get rid of the global
notifier block altogether, this helper only invokes the per-netns notifier
block.

The filter_mask field of RTM_GETSTATS header determines which top-level
attributes should be included in the netlink response. This saves
processing time by only including the bits that the user cares about
instead of always dumping everything. This is doubly important for
HW-backed statistics that would typically require a trip to the device to
fetch the stats.
So far there was only one HW-backed stat suite per attribute. However,
IFLA_STATS_LINK_OFFLOAD_XSTATS is a nest, and will gain a new stat suite in
the following patches. It would therefore be advantageous to be able to
filter within that nest, and select just one or the other HW-backed
statistics suite.
Extend rtnetlink so that RTM_GETSTATS permits attributes in the payload.
The scheme is as follows:
- RTM_GETSTATS
- struct if_stats_msg
- attr nest IFLA_STATS_GET_FILTERS
- attr IFLA_STATS_LINK_OFFLOAD_XSTATS
- u32 filter_mask
This scheme reuses the existing enumerators by nesting them in a dedicated
context attribute. This is covered by policies as usual, therefore a
gradual opt-in is possible. Currently only IFLA_STATS_LINK_OFFLOAD_XSTATS
nest has filtering enabled, because for the SW counters the issue does not
seem to be that important.
rtnl_offload_xstats_get_size() and _fill() are extended to observe the
requested filters.

wifi access points) because of claimed bufferbloat issues,
or some work arounds in sch_cake, to split GRO/GSO packets.
Instead of disabling GRO completely, one can chose to limit

The kernel provides a "/proc/sys/net/ipv6/conf/<iface>/mtu"
file, which can temporarily record the mtu value of the last
received RA message when the RA mtu value is lower than the
interface mtu, but this proc has following limitations:
(1) when the interface mtu (/sys/class/net/<iface>/mtu) is
updeated, mtu6 (/proc/sys/net/ipv6/conf/<iface>/mtu) will
be updated to the value of interface mtu;
(2) mtu6 (/proc/sys/net/ipv6/conf/<iface>/mtu) only affect
ipv6 connection, and not affect ipv4.
Therefore, when the mtu option is carried in the RA message,
there will be a problem that the user sometimes cannot obtain
RA mtu value correctly by reading mtu6.
After this patch set, if a RA message carries the mtu option,
you can send a netlink msg which nlmsg_type is RTM_GETLINK,
and then by parsing the attribute of IFLA_INET6_RA_MTU to
get the mtu value carried in the RA message received on the
inet6 device. In addition, you can also get a link notification
when ra_mtu is updated so it doesn't have to poll.
In this way, if the MTU values that the device receives from
the network in the PCO IPv4 and the RA IPv6 procedures are
different, the user can obtain the correct ipv6 ra_mtu value
and compare the value of ra_mtu and ipv4 mtu, then the device
can use the lower MTU value for both IPv4 and IPv6.

In some cases, for example in the upcoming WWAN framework changes,
there's no natural "parent netdev", so sometimes dummy netdevs are
created or similar. IFLA_PARENT_DEV_NAME is a new attribute intended to
contain a device (sysfs, struct device) name that can be used instead
when creating a new netdev, if the rtnetlink family implements it.
As suggested by Parav Pandit, we also introduce IFLA_PARENT_DEV_BUS_NAME
attribute in order to uniquely identify a device on the system (with
bus/name pair).
ip-link(8) support for the generic parent device attributes will help
us avoid code duplication, so no other link type will require a custom
code to handle the parent name attribute. E.g. the WWAN interface
creation command will looks like this:
$ ip link add wwan0-1 parent-dev wwan0 type wwan channel-id 1
So, some future subsystem (or driver) FOO will have an interface
creation command that looks like this:
$ ip link add foo1-3 parent-dev foo1 type foo bar-id 3 baz-type Y
Below is an example of dumping link info of a random device with these
new attributes:
$ ip --details link show wlp0s20f3
4: wlp0s20f3: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 qdisc noqueue
state UP mode DORMANT group default qlen 1000

This reverts commit 9ab7e76aefc97a9aa664accb59d6e8dc5e52514a.
This patch was committed without maintainer approval and despite a number
of unaddressed concerns from review. There are several issues that
impede the acceptance of this patch and that make a reversion of this
particular instance of these changes the best way forward:
i) the patch contains several logically separate changes that would be
better served as smaller patches (for review purposes)
ii) functionality like the handling of end markers has been introduced
without further explanation
iii) symmetry between the handling of GTPv0 and GTPv1 has been
unnecessarily broken
iv) the patchset produces 'broken' packets when extension headers are
included
v) there are no available userspace tools to allow for testing this
functionality
vi) there is an unaddressed Coverity report against the patch concering
memory leakage
vii) most importantly, the patch contains a large amount of superfluous
churn that impedes other ongoing work with this driver
This patch will be reworked into a series that aligns with other
ongoing work and facilitates review.

Background:
Broadcast and multicast packages are enqueued for later processing.
This queue was previously hardcoded to 1000.
This proved insufficient for handling very high packet rates.
This resulted in packet drops for multicast.
While at the same time unicast worked fine.
The change:
This patch make the queue length adjustable to accommodate
for environments with very high multicast packet rate.
But still keeps the default value of 1000 unless specified.
The queue length is specified as a request per macvlan
using the IFLA_MACVLAN_BC_QUEUE_LEN parameter.
The actual used queue length will then be the maximum of
any macvlan connected to the same port. The actual used
queue length for the port can be retrieved (read only)
by the IFLA_MACVLAN_BC_QUEUE_LEN_USED parameter for verification.
This will be followed up by a patch to iproute2
in order to adjust the parameter from userspace.

This patch is born out of an investigation into which IEEE statistics
correspond to which struct rtnl_link_stats64 members. Turns out that
there seems to be reasonable consensus on the matter, among many drivers.
To save others the time (and it took more time than I'm comfortable
admitting) I'm adding comments referring to IEEE attributes to
struct rtnl_link_stats64.
Up until now we had two forms of documentation for stats - in
Documentation/ABI/testing/sysfs-class-net-statistics and the comments
on struct rtnl_link_stats64 itself. While the former is very cautious
in defining the expected behavior, the latter feel quite dated and
may not be easy to understand for modern day driver author
(e.g. rx_over_errors). At the same time modern systems are far more
complex and once obvious definitions lost their clarity. For example
- does rx_packet count at the MAC layer (aFramesReceivedOK)?
packets processed correctly by hardware? received by the driver?
or maybe received by the stack?
I tried to clarify the expectations, further clarifications from
others are very welcome.
The part hardest to untangle is rx_over_errors vs rx_fifo_errors
vs rx_missed_errors. After much deliberation I concluded that for
modern HW only two of the counters will make sense. The distinction
between internal FIFO overflow and packets dropped due to back-pressure
from the host is likely too implementation (driver and device) specific
to expose in the standard stats.
Now - which two of those counters we select to use is anyone's pick:
sysfs documentation suggests rx_over_errors counts packets which
did not fit into buffers due to MTU being too small, which I reused.
There don't seem to be many modern drivers using it (well, CAN drivers
seem to love this statistic).
Of the remaining two I picked rx_missed_errors to report device drops.
bnxt reports it and it's folded into "drop"s in procfs (while
rx_fifo_errors is an error, and modern devices usually receive the frame
OK, they just can't admit it into the pipeline).
Of the drivers I looked at only AMD Lance-like and NS8390-like use all
three of these counters. rx_missed_errors counts missed frames,
rx_over_errors counts overflow events, and rx_fifo_errors counts frames
which were truncated because they didn't fit into buffers. This suggests
that rx_fifo_errors may be the correct stat for truncated packets, but
I'd think a FIFO stat counting truncated packets would be very confusing
to a modern reader.
v2:
- add driver developer notes about ethtool stat count and reset
- replace Ethernet with IEEE 802.3 to better indicate source of attrs
- mention byte counters don't count FCS
- clarify RX counter is from device to host
- drop "sightly" from sysfs paragraph
- add examples of ethtool stats
- s/incoming/received/ s/incoming/transmitted/

netdev protodown is a mechanism that allows protocols to
hold an interface down. It was initially introduced in
the kernel to hold links down by a multihoming protocol.
There was also an attempt to introduce protodown
reason at the time but was rejected. protodown and protodown reason
is supported by almost every switching and routing platform.
It was ok for a while to live without a protodown reason.
But, its become more critical now given more than
one protocol may need to keep a link down on a system
at the same time. eg: vrrp peer node, port security,
multihoming protocol. Its common for Network operators and
protocol developers to look for such a reason on a networking
box (Its also known as errDisable by most networking operators)
This patch adds support for link protodown reason

reasons.

- A protocol developer has to make a request and
have that appear in a certain kernel version
(b) provide the bits in the kernel, and allow user-space
(sysadmin or NOS distributions) to manage the bit-to-reasonname
map.
- This makes extending reason codes easier (kind of like
the iproute2 table to vrf-name map /etc/iproute2/rt_tables.d/)
This patch takes approach (b).
a few things about the patch:
- It treats the protodown reason bits as counter to indicate
active protodown users
- Since protodown attribute is already an exposed UAPI,
the reason is not enforced on a protodown set. Its a no-op
if not used.
the patch follows the below algorithm:
- presence of reason bits set indicates protodown
is in use
- user can set protodown and protodown reason in a
single or multiple setlink operations
- setlink operation to clear protodown, will return -EBUSY
if there are active protodown reason bits
- reason is not included in link dumps if not used
example with patched iproute2:
$cat /etc/iproute2/protodown_reasons.d/r.conf
0 mlag
1 evpn
2 vrrp
3 psecurity
$ip link set dev vxlan0 protodown on protodown_reason vrrp on
$ip link set dev vxlan0 protodown_reason mlag on
$ip link show

Parallel Redundancy Protocol (PRP) is another redundancy protocol
introduced by IEC 63439 standard. It is similar to HSR in many
aspects:-
- Use a pair of Ethernet interfaces to created the PRP device
- Use a 6 byte redundancy protocol part (RCT, Redundancy Check
Trailer) similar to HSR Tag.
- Has Link Redundancy Entity (LRE) that works with RCT to implement
redundancy.
Key difference is that the protocol unit is a trailer instead of a
prefix as in HSR. That makes it inter-operable with tradition network
components such as bridges/switches which treat it as pad bytes,
whereas HSR nodes requires some kind of translators (Called redbox) to
talk to regular network devices. This features allows regular linux box
to be converted to a DAN-P box. DAN-P stands for Dual Attached Node - PRP
similar to DAN-H (Dual Attached Node - HSR).
Add a comment at the header/source code to explicitly state that the
driver files also handles PRP protocol as well.

The commit fe80536acf83 ("bareudp: Added attribute to enable & disable
rx metadata collection") breaks the the original(5.7) default behavior of
bareudp module to collect RX metadadata at the receive. It was added to
avoid the crash at the kernel neighbour subsytem when packet with metadata
from bareudp is processed. But it is no more needed as the
commit 394de110a733 ("net: Added pointer check for
dst->ops->neigh_lookup in dst_neigh_lookup_skb") solves this crash.

While it is currently possible for userspace to specify that an existing
XDP program should not be replaced when attaching to an interface, there is
no mechanism to safely replace a specific XDP program with another.
This patch adds a new netlink attribute, IFLA_XDP_EXPECTED_FD, which can be
set along with IFLA_XDP_FD. If set, the kernel will check that the program
currently loaded on the interface matches the expected one, and fail the
operation if it does not. This corresponds to a 'cmpxchg' memory operation.
Setting the new attribute with a negative value means that no program is
expected to be attached, which corresponds to setting the UPDATE_IF_NOEXIST
flag.
A new companion flag, XDP_FLAGS_REPLACE, is also added to explicitly
request checking of the EXPECTED_FD attribute. This is needed for userspace
to discover whether the kernel supports the new attribute.

Special handling is needed in bareudp module for IP & MPLS as they
support more than one ethertypes.
MPLS has 2 ethertypes. 0x8847 for MPLS unicast and 0x8848 for MPLS multicast.
While decapsulating MPLS packet from UDP packet the tunnel destination IP
address is checked to determine the ethertype. The ethertype of the packet
will be set to 0x8848 if the tunnel destination IP address is a multicast
IP address. The ethertype of the packet will be set to 0x8847 if the
tunnel destination IP address is a unicast IP address.
IP has 2 ethertypes.0x0800 for IPV4 and 0x86dd for IPv6. The version
field of the IP header tunnelled will be checked to determine the ethertype.
This special handling to tunnel additional ethertypes will be disabled
by default and can be enabled using a flag called multiproto. This flag can
be used only with ethertypes 0x8847 and 0x0800.

Permanent hardware address of a network device was traditionally provided
via ethtool ioctl interface but as Jiri Pirko pointed out in a review of
ethtool netlink interface, rtnetlink is much more suitable for it so let's
add it to the RTM_NEWLINK message.
Add IFLA_PERM_ADDRESS attribute to RTM_NEWLINK messages unless the
permanent address is all zeros (i.e. device driver did not fill it). As
permanent address is not modifiable, reject userspace requests containing
IFLA_PERM_ADDRESS attribute.
Note: we already provide permanent hardware address for bond slaves;
unfortunately we cannot drop that attribute for backward compatibility
reasons.

Currently, gratuitous ARP/ND packets are sent every `miimon'
milliseconds. This commit allows a user to specify a custom delay
through a new option, `peer_notif_delay'.
Like for `updelay' and `downdelay', this delay should be a multiple of
`miimon' to avoid managing an additional work queue. The configuration
logic is copied from `updelay' and `downdelay'. However, the default
value cannot be set using a module parameter: Netlink or sysfs should
be used to configure this feature.
When setting `miimon' to 100 and `peer_notif_delay' to 500, we can
observe the 500 ms delay is respected:
20:30:19.354693 ARP, Request who-has 203.0.113.10 tell 203.0.113.10, length 28
20:30:19.874892 ARP, Request who-has 203.0.113.10 tell 203.0.113.10, length 28
20:30:20.394919 ARP, Request who-has 203.0.113.10 tell 203.0.113.10, length 28
20:30:20.914963 ARP, Request who-has 203.0.113.10 tell 203.0.113.10, length 28
In bond_mii_monitor(), I have tried to keep the lock logic readable.
The change is due to the fact we cannot rely on a notification to
lower the value of `bond->send_peer_notif' as `NETDEV_NOTIFY_PEERS' is
only triggered once every N times, while we need to decrement the
counter each time.
iproute2 also needs to be updated to be able to specify this new
attribute through `ip link'.

This patch adds support for extended statistics (xstats) call to the
bonding. The first user would be the 3ad code which counts the following
events:
- LACPDU Rx/Tx
- LACPDU unknown type Rx
- LACPDU illegal Rx
- Marker Rx/Tx
- Marker response Rx/Tx
- Marker unknown type Rx
All of these are exported via netlink as separate attributes to be
easily extensible as we plan to add more in the future.
Similar to how the bridge and other xstats exports, the structure
inside is:
[ IFLA_STATS_LINK_XSTATS ]
-> [ LINK_XSTATS_TYPE_BOND ]
-> [ BOND_XSTATS_3AD ]
-> [ 3ad stats attributes ]
With this structure it's easy to add more stat types later.

We have been adding many new bridge options, a big number of which are
boolean but still take up netlink attribute ids and waste space in the skb.
Recently we discussed learning from link-local packets[1] and decided
yet another new boolean option will be needed, thus introducing this API
to save some bridge nl space.
The API supports changing the value of multiple boolean options at once
via the br_boolopt_multi struct which has an optmask (which options to
set, bit per opt) and optval (options' new values). Future boolean
options will only be added to the br_boolopt_id enum and then will have
to be handled in br_boolopt_toggle/get. The API will automatically
add the ability to change and export them via netlink, sysfs can use the
single boolopt function versions to do the same. The behaviour with
failing/succeeding is the same as with normal netlink option changing.
If an option requires mapping to internal kernel flag or needs special
configuration to be enabled then it should be handled in
br_boolopt_toggle. It should also be able to retrieve an option's current
state via br_boolopt_get.
v2: WARN_ON() on unsupported option as that shouldn't be possible and
also will help catch people who add new options without handling
them for both set and get. Pass down extack so if an option desires
it could set it on error and be more user-friendly.

draft-ietf-nvo3-geneve-08 says:
It is strongly RECOMMENDED that Path MTU Discovery ([RFC1191],
[RFC1981]) be used by setting the DF bit in the IP header when Geneve
packets are transmitted over IPv4 (this is the default with IPv6).
Now that ICMP error handling is working for GENEVE, we can comply with
this recommendation.
Make this configurable, though, to avoid breaking existing setups. By
default, DF won't be set. It can be set or inherited from inner IPv4
packets. If it's configured to be inherited and we are encapsulating IPv6,
it will be set.
This only applies to non-lwt tunnels: if an external control plane is
used, tunnel key will still control the DF flag.
v2:
- DF behaviour configuration only applies for non-lwt tunnels, apply DF
setting only if (!geneve->collect_md) in geneve_xmit_skb()
