Mahesh Bandewar b93dd49c1a ipvlan: Scrub skb before crossing the namespace boundry
The earlier patch c3aaa06d5a (ipvlan: scrub skb before routing
in L3 mode.) did this but only for TX path in L3 mode. This
patch extends it for both the modes for TX/RX path.

Eric Dumazet 0d7dd798fd net: ipvlan: call netdev_lockdep_set_classes()
In case a qdisc is used on a ipvlan device, we need to use different
lockdep classes to avoid false positives.

Use the new netdev_lockdep_set_classes() generic helper.

Mahesh Bandewar 494e8489db ipvlan: Fix failure path in dev registration during link creation
When newlink creation fails at device-registration, the port->count
is decremented twice. Francesco Ruggeri (fruggeri@arista.com) found
this issue in Macvlan and the same exists in IPvlan driver too.

While fixing this issue I noticed another issue of missing unregister
in case of failure, so adding it to the fix which is similar to the
macvlan fix by Francesco in commit 3083796075 ("macvlan: fix failure
during registration v3")

Scrub skb before hitting the iptable hooks to ensure packets hit

Mahesh Bandewar 296d485680 ipvlan: inherit MTU from master device
When we create IPvlan slave; we use ether_setup() and that
sets up default MTU to 1500 while the master device may have
lower / different MTU. Any subsequent changes to the masters'
MTU are reflected into the slaves' MTU setting. However if those
don't happen (most likely scenario), the slaves' MTU stays at
1500 which could be bad.

This change adds code to inherit MTU from the master device
instead of using the default value during the link initialization
phase.

Tom Herbert a188222b6e net: Rename NETIF_F_ALL_CSUM to NETIF_F_CSUM_MASK
The name NETIF_F_ALL_CSUM is a misnomer. This does not correspond to the
set of features for offloading all checksums. This is a mask of the
checksum offload related features bits. It is incorrect to set both
NETIF_F_HW_CSUM and NETIF_F_IP_CSUM or NETIF_F_IPV6 at the same time for
features of a device.

This patch:
  - Changes instances of NETIF_F_ALL_CSUM to NETIF_F_CSUM_MASK (where
    NETIF_F_ALL_CSUM is being used as a mask).
  - Changes bonding, sfc/efx, ipvlan, macvlan, vlan, and team drivers to
    use NEITF_F_HW_CSUM in features list instead of NETIF_F_ALL_CSUM.

Pass a **skb to ipvlan_rcv_frame so that if skb_share_check returns a
new skb, we actually use it during further processing.

It's safe to ignore the new skb in the ipvlan_xmit_* functions, because
they call ipvlan_rcv_frame with local == true, so that dev_forward_skb
is called and always takes ownership of the skb.

Brenden Blanco 63b11e757d ipvlan: read direct ifindex instead of iflink
In the ipv4 outbound path of an ipvlan device in l3 mode, the ifindex is
being grabbed from dev_get_iflink. This works for the physical device
case, since as the documentation of that function notes: "Physical
interfaces have the same 'ifindex' and 'iflink' values.".  However, if
the master device is a veth, and the pairs are in separate net
namespaces, the route lookup will fail with -ENODEV due to outer veth
pair being in a separate namespace from the ipvlan master/routing
namespace.

  ns0    |   ns1    |   ns2
 veth0a--|--veth0b--|--ipvl0

In ipvlan_process_v4_outbound(), a packet sent from ipvl0 in the above
configuration will pass fl.flowi4_oif == veth0a to
ip_route_output_flow(), but *net == ns1.

Notice also that ipv6 processing is not using iflink. Since there is a
discrepancy in usage, fixup both v4 and v6 case to use local dev
variable.

Tested this with l3 ipvlan on top of veth, as well as with single
physical interface in the top namespace.

Earlier tricks of setting broadcast bit only when IPv4 address is added

Setting them on always is performance drag but now that multicast /

autoconf work correctly without affecting performance characteristics of

Mahesh Bandewar ba35f8588f ipvlan: Defer multicast / broadcast processing to a work-queue
Processing multicast / broadcast in fast path is performance draining
and having more links means more cloning and bringing performance
down further.

Broadcast; in particular, need to be given to all the virtual links.
Earlier tricks of enabling broadcast bit for IPv4 only interfaces are not
really working since it fails autoconf. Which means enabling broadcast
for all the links if protocol specific hacks do not have to be added into
the driver.

This patch defers all (incoming as well as outgoing) multicast traffic to
a work-queue leaving only the unicast traffic in the fast-path. Now if we
need to apply any additional tricks to further reduce the impact of this
(multicast / broadcast) type of traffic, it can be implemented while
processing this work without affecting the fast-path.

When ipvlan interface with IP addresses attached is brought down and then
deleted, the assigned addresses are deleted twice from the address hash
list, first on the interface down and second on the link deletion.
Similarly, when an address is added while the interface is down, it is added
second time once the interface is brought up.

When the interface is down, the addresses should be kept off the hash list
for performance reasons. Ensure this is true, which also fixes the double add
problem. To fix the double free, check whether the address is hashed before
removing it.

Mahesh Bandewar 265de6d19c ipvlan: ipvlan depends on INET and IPV6
This driver uses ip_out_local() and ip6_route_output() which are
defined only if CONFIG_INET and CONFIG_IPV6 are enabled respectively.

Mahesh Bandewar 2ad7bf3638 ipvlan: Initial check-in of the IPVLAN driver.
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 ]
