Add support for FDB vlan-tagged entries. Extend ingress and egress flow

code to include vlan tag, if vlan is configured on port and vlan

Hardware supported by mlx5 driver doesn't provide learning and requires the
driver to emulate all switch-like behavior in software. As such, all
packets by default go through miss path, appear on representor and get to
software bridge, if it is the upper device of the representor. This causes
bridge to process packet in software, learn the MAC address to FDB and send
SWITCHDEV_FDB_ADD_TO_DEVICE event to all subscribers.
In order to offload FDB entries in mlx5, register switchdev notifier
callback and implement support for both 'added_by_user' and dynamic FDB
entry SWITCHDEV_FDB_ADD_TO_DEVICE events asynchronously using new
mlx5_esw_bridge_offloads->wq ordered workqueue. In workqueue callback
offload the ingress rule (matching FDB entry MAC as packet source MAC) and
egress table rule (matching FDB entry MAC as destination MAC). For ingress
table rule also match source vport to ensure that only traffic coming from
expected bridge port is matched by offloaded rule. Save all the relevant
FDB entry data in struct mlx5_esw_bridge_fdb_entry instance and insert the
instance in new mlx5_esw_bridge->fdb_list list (for traversing all entries
by software ageing implementation in following patch) and in new
mlx5_esw_bridge->fdb_ht hash table for fast retrieval. Notify the bridge
that FDB entry has been offloaded by sending SWITCHDEV_FDB_OFFLOADED
notification.
Delete FDB entry on reception of SWITCHDEV_FDB_DEL_TO_DEVICE event.

To avoid confusions, it seems better to parse this sysctl parameter as a
boolean. We use it as a boolean, no need to parse an integer and bring
confusions if we see a value different from 0 and 1, especially with
this parameter name: enabled.
It seems fine to do this modification because the default value is 1
(enabled). Then the only other interesting value to set is 0 (disabled).
All other values would not have changed the default behaviour.

A subsequent patch will add a new multipath hash policy where the packet
fields used for multipath hash calculation are determined by user space.
This patch adds a sysctl that allows user space to set these fields.
The packet fields are represented using a bitmask and are common between
IPv4 and IPv6 to allow user space to use the same numbering across both
protocols. For example, to hash based on standard 5-tuple:
# sysctl -w net.ipv6.fib_multipath_hash_fields=0x0037
net.ipv6.fib_multipath_hash_fields = 0x0037
To avoid introducing holes in 'struct netns_sysctl_ipv6', move the
'bindv6only' field after the multipath hash fields.
The kernel rejects unknown fields, for example:
# sysctl -w net.ipv6.fib_multipath_hash_fields=0x1000

Some parts of the documentation may lead the reader to think that the
socket's own frames are always received when CAN_RAW_RECV_OWN_MSGS is
enabled, but all frames are subject to filtering.
As explained by Marc Kleine-Budde:
On TX complete of a CAN frame it's pushed into the RX path of the
networking stack, along with the information of the originating socket.
Then the CAN frame is delivered into AF_CAN, where it is passed on to
all registered receivers depending on filters. One receiver is the
sending socket in CAN_RAW. Then in CAN_RAW the it is checked if the
sending socket has RECV_OWN_MSGS enabled.

Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
Similarly to pause statistics add stats for FEC.
The IEEE standard mandates two sets of counters:
- 30.5.1.1.17 aFECCorrectedBlocks
- 30.5.1.1.18 aFECUncorrectableBlocks
where block is a block of bits FEC operates on.
Each of these counters is defined per lane (PCS instance).
Multiple vendors provide number of corrected _bits_ rather
than/as well as blocks.
This set adds the 2 standard-based block counters and a extra
one for corrected bits.
Counters are exposed to user space via netlink in new attributes.
Each attribute carries an array of u64s, first element is
the total count, and the following ones are a per-lane break down.
Much like with pause stats the operation will not fail when driver
does not implement the get_fec_stats callback (nor can the driver
fail the operation by returning an error). If stats can't be
reported the relevant attributes will be empty.

Currently each packet inserted in eswitch is tagged with a internal
metadata to indicate source vport. Metadata tagging is not always
needed. Metadata insertion is needed for multi-port RoCE, failover
between representors and stacked devices. In many other cases,
metadata enablement is not needed.
Metadata insertion slows down the packet processing rate of the E-switch
when it is in switchdev mode.
Below table show performance gain with metadata disabled for VXLAN
offload rules in both SMFS and DMFS steering mode on ConnectX-5 device.
----------------------------------------------
| steering | metadata | pkt size | rx pps |
| mode | | | (million) |
----------------------------------------------
| smfs | disabled | 128Bytes | 42 |
----------------------------------------------
| smfs | enabled | 128Bytes | 36 |
----------------------------------------------
| dmfs | disabled | 128Bytes | 42 |
----------------------------------------------
| dmfs | enabled | 128Bytes | 36 |
----------------------------------------------
Hence, allow user to disable metadata using driver specific devlink
parameter. Metadata setting of the eswitch is applicable only for the
switchdev mode.
Example to show and disable metadata before changing eswitch mode:
$ devlink dev param show pci/0000:06:00.0 name esw_port_metadata
pci/0000:06:00.0:
name esw_port_metadata type driver-specific
values:
cmode runtime value true
$ devlink dev param set pci/0000:06:00.0 \
name esw_port_metadata value false cmode runtime
$ devlink dev eswitch set pci/0000:06:00.0 mode switchdev

get_module_eeprom_by_page() allows network drivers to dump a part of

and get_module_eeprom() pair, which is needed due to emergence of

X.25 Layer 3 (the Packet Layer) expects layer 2 to provide a reliable
datalink service such that no packets are reordered or dropped. And
X.25 Layer 2 (the LAPB layer) is indeed designed to provide such service.
However, this reliability is not preserved when a driver calls "netif_rx"
to deliver the received packets to layer 3, because "netif_rx" will put
the packets into per-CPU queues before they are delivered to layer 3.
If there are multiple CPUs, the order of the packets may not be preserved.
The per-CPU queues may also drop packets if there are too many.
Therefore, we should not call "netif_rx" to let it queue the packets.
Instead, we should use our own queue that won't reorder or drop packets.
This patch changes all X.25 drivers to use their own queues instead of
calling "netif_rx". The patch also documents this requirement in the
"x25-iface" documentation.

If there is overlapp between ip_local_port_range and ip_local_reserved_ports with a huge reserved block, it will affect probability of selecting ephemeral ports, see file net/ipv4/inet_hashtables.c:723

for (i = 0; i < remaining; i += 2, port += 2) {

if (inet_is_local_reserved_port(net, port))

E.g. if there is reserved block of 10000 ports, two ports right after this block will be 5000 more likely selected than others.
If this was intended, we can/should add note into documentation as proposed in this commit, otherwise we should think about different solution. One option could be mapping table of continuous port ranges. Second option could be letting user to modify step (port+=2) in above loop, e.g. using new sysctl parameter.

On one hand, the link is dead and therefore useless.
On the other hand, there are always more drivers to port, but at this
stage, DSA does not need to affirm itself as the driver model to use for
Ethernet-connected switches (since we already have 15 tagging protocols
supported and probably more switch families from various vendors), so
there is nothing actionable to do.

After the recent series containing commit bae33f2b5a ("net: switchdev:
remove the transaction structure from port attributes"), there aren't
prepare/commit transactional phases anymore in most of the switchdev
objects/attributes, and as a result, there aren't any in the DSA driver
API either. So remove this piece.
