This is very similar to the Macvlan VEPA mode, however, there is some
difference. IPvlan uses the mac-address of the lower device, so the VEPA
mode has implications of ICMP-redirects for packets destined for its
immediate neighbors sharing same master since the packets will have same
source and dest mac. The external switch/router will send redirect msg.
Having said that, this will be useful tool in terms of debugging
since IPvlan will not switch packets within its slaves and rely completely
on the external entity as intended in 802.1Qbg.

IPvlan has always operated in bridge mode. However there are scenarios
where each slave should be able to talk through the master device but
not necessarily across each other. Think of an environment where each
of a namespace is a private and independant customer. In this scenario
the machine which is hosting these namespaces neither want to tell who
their neighbor is nor the individual namespaces care to talk to neighbor
on short-circuited network path.
This patch implements the mode that is very similar to the 'private' mode
in macvlan where individual slaves can send and receive traffic through
the master device, just that they can not talk among slave devices.

In the IPVLAN documentation there is an example command line where the
master and slave interface names are inverted.
Fix the command line and also add the optional `name' keyword to better
describe what the command is doing.

In a typical IPvlan L3 setup where master is in default-ns and
each slave is into different (slave) ns. In this setup egress
packet processing for traffic originating from slave-ns will
hit all NF_HOOKs in slave-ns as well as default-ns. However same
is not true for ingress processing. All these NF_HOOKs are
hit only in the slave-ns skipping them in the default-ns.
IPvlan in L3 mode is restrictive and if admins want to deploy
iptables rules in default-ns, this asymmetric data path makes it
impossible to do so.
This patch makes use of the l3_rcv() (added as part of l3mdev
enhancements) to perform input route lookup on RX packets without
changing the skb->dev and then uses nf_hook at NF_INET_LOCAL_IN
to change the skb->dev just before handing over skb to L4.

This driver is very similar to the macvlan driver except that it
uses L3 on the frame to determine the logical interface while
functioning as packet dispatcher. It inherits L2 of the master
device hence the packets on wire will have the same L2 for all
the packets originating from all virtual devices off of the same
master device.
This driver was developed keeping the namespace use-case in
mind. Hence most of the examples given here take that as the
base setup where main-device belongs to the default-ns and
virtual devices are assigned to the additional namespaces.
The device operates in two different modes and the difference
in these two modes in primarily in the TX side.
(a) L2 mode : In this mode, the device behaves as a L2 device.
TX processing upto L2 happens on the stack of the virtual device
associated with (namespace). Packets are switched after that
into the main device (default-ns) and queued for xmit.
RX processing is simple and all multicast, broadcast (if
applicable), and unicast belonging to the address(es) are
delivered to the virtual devices.
(b) L3 mode : In this mode, the device behaves like a L3 device.
TX processing upto L3 happens on the stack of the virtual device
associated with (namespace). Packets are switched to the
main-device (default-ns) for the L2 processing. Hence the routing
table of the default-ns will be used in this mode.
RX processins is somewhat similar to the L2 mode except that in
this mode only Unicast packets are delivered to the virtual device
while main-dev will handle all other packets.
The devices can be added using the "ip" command from the iproute2
package -
ip link add link <master> <virtual> type ipvlan mode [ l2 | l3 ]
