As reported by Lennert the MPLS GSO code is failing to properly segment
large packets. There are a couple of problems:
1. the inner protocol is not set so the gso segment functions for inner
protocol layers are not getting run, and
2 MPLS labels for packets that use the "native" (non-OVS) MPLS code
are not properly accounted for in mpls_gso_segment.
The MPLS GSO code was added for OVS. It is re-using skb_mac_gso_segment
to call the gso segment functions for the higher layer protocols. That
means skb_mac_gso_segment is called twice -- once with the network
protocol set to MPLS and again with the network protocol set to the
inner protocol.
This patch sets the inner skb protocol addressing item 1 above and sets
the network_header and inner_network_header to mark where the MPLS labels
start and end. The MPLS code in OVS is also updated to set the two
network markers.
>From there the MPLS GSO code uses the difference between the network
header and the inner network header to know the size of the MPLS header
that was pushed. It then pulls the MPLS header, resets the mac_len and
protocol for the inner protocol and then calls skb_mac_gso_segment
to segment the skb.
Afterward the inner protocol segmentation is done the skb protocol
is set to mpls for each segment and the network and mac headers
restored.

Today mpls iptunnel lwtunnel_output redirect expects the tunnel
output function to handle fragmentation. This is ok but can be
avoided if we did not do the mpls output redirect too early.
ie we could wait until ip fragmentation is done and then call
mpls output for each ip fragment.
To make this work we will need,
1) the lwtunnel state to carry encap headroom
2) and do the redirect to the encap output handler on the ip fragment
(essentially do the output redirect after fragmentation)
This patch adds tunnel headroom in lwtstate to make sure we
account for tunnel data in mtu calculations during fragmentation
and adds new xmit redirect handler to redirect to lwtunnel xmit func
after ip fragmentation.
This includes IPV6 and some mtu fixes and testing from David Ahern.

This appears to be necessary and sufficient to provide
MPLS in GRE (RFC4023) support.
This can be used by establishing an ipgre tunnel device
and then routing MPLS over it.
The following example will forward MPLS frames received with an outermost
MPLS label 100 over tun1, a GRE tunnel. The forwarded packet will have the
outermost MPLS LSE removed and two new LSEs added with labels 200
(outermost) and 300 (next).
ip link add name tun1 type gre remote 10.0.99.193 local 10.0.99.192 ttl 225
ip link set up dev tun1
ip addr add 10.0.98.192/24 dev tun1
ip route sh
echo 1 > /proc/sys/net/mpls/conf/eth0/input
echo 101 > /proc/sys/net/mpls/platform_labels
ip -f mpls route add 100 as 200/300 via inet 10.0.98.193

skb_gso_network_seglen is not enough for checking fragment sizes if

In several gso_segment functions there are checks of gso_type against
a seemingly arbitrary list of SKB_GSO_* flags. This seems like an
attempt to identify unsupported GSO types, but since the stack is
the one that set these GSO types in the first place this seems
unnecessary to do. If a combination isn't valid in the first
place that stack should not allow setting it.
This is a code simplication especially for add new GSO types.

This patch adds support for TSO using IPv4 headers with a fixed IP ID
field. This is meant to allow us to do a lossless GRO in the case of TCP
flows that use a fixed IP ID such as those that convert IPv6 header to IPv4
headers.
In addition I am adding a feature that for now I am referring to TSO with
IP ID mangling. Basically when this flag is enabled the device has the
option to either output the flow with incrementing IP IDs or with a fixed
IP ID regardless of what the original IP ID ordering was. This is useful
in cases where the DF bit is set and we do not care if the original IP ID
value is maintained.

When a via address isn't specified, the via table is left initialised
to 0 (NEIGH_ARP_TABLE), and the via address length also left
initialised to 0. This results in a via address array of length 0
being allocated (contiguous with route and nexthop array), meaning
that when a packet is sent using neigh_xmit the neighbour lookup and
creation will cause an out-of-bounds access when accessing the 4 bytes
of the IPv4 address it assumes it has been given a pointer to.
This could be fixed by allocating the 4 bytes of via address necessary
and leaving it as all zeroes. However, it seems wrong to me to use an
ipv4 nexthop (including possibly ARPing for 0.0.0.0) when the user
didn't specify to do so.
Instead, set the via address table to NEIGH_NR_TABLES to signify it
hasn't been specified and use this at forwarding time to signify a
neigh_xmit using an L2 address consisting of the device address. This
mechanism is the same as that used for both ARP and ND for loopback
interfaces and those flagged as no-arp, which are all we can really
support in this case.

The problem seen is that when adding a route with a nexthop with no
via address specified, iproute2 generates bogus output:
# ip -f mpls route add 100 dev lo
# ip -f mpls route list
100 via inet 0.0.8.0 dev lo
The reason for this is that the kernel generates an RTA_VIA attribute
with the family set to AF_INET, but the via address data having zero
length. The cause of family being AF_INET is that on route insert
cfg->rc_via_table is left set to 0, which just happens to be
NEIGH_ARP_TABLE which is then translated into AF_INET.
iproute2 doesn't validate the length prior to printing and so prints
garbage. Although it could be fixed to do the validation, I would
argue that AF_INET addresses should always be exactly 4 bytes so the
kernel is really giving userspace bogus data.
Therefore, avoid generating the RTA_VIA attribute when dumping the
route if the via address wasn't specified on add/modify. This is
indicated by NEIGH_ARP_TABLE and a zero via address length - if the
user specified a via address the address length would have been
validated such that it was 4 bytes. Although this is a change in
behaviour that is visible to userspace, I believe that what was
generated before was invalid and as such userspace wouldn't be
expecting it.

Locally generated IPv4 and (probably) IPv6 packets are dropped because
skb->protocol isn't set. We could write wrappers to lwtunnel_output
for IPv4 and IPv6 that set the protocol accordingly and then call
lwtunnel_output, but mpls_output relies on the AF-specific type of dst
anyway to get the via address.
Therefore, make use of dst->dst_ops->family in mpls_output to
determine the type of nexthop and thus protocol of the packet instead
of checking skb->protocol.

Adds support for RTNH_F_DEAD and RTNH_F_LINKDOWN flags on mpls
routes due to link events. Also adds code to ignore dead
routes during route selection.
Unlike ip routes, mpls routes are not deleted when the route goes
dead. This is current mpls behaviour and this patch does not change
that. With this patch however, routes will be marked dead.
dead routes are not notified to userspace (this is consistent with ipv4
routes).
dead routes:
-----------
$ip -f mpls route show
100
nexthop as to 200 via inet 10.1.1.2 dev swp1
nexthop as to 700 via inet 10.1.1.6 dev swp2

Nexthops for MPLS routes have a via address field sized for the
largest via address that is expected, which is 32 bytes. This means
that in the most common case of having ipv4 via addresses, 28 bytes of
memory more than required are used per nexthop. In the other common
case of an ipv6 nexthop then 16 bytes more than required are
used. With large numbers of MPLS routes this extra memory usage could
start to become significant.
To avoid allocating memory for a maximum length via address when not
all of it is required and to allow for ease of iterating over
nexthops, then the via addresses are changed to be stored in the same
memory block as the route and nexthops, but in an array after the end
of the array of nexthops. New accessors are provided to retrieve a
pointer to the via address.
To allow for O(1) access without having to store a pointer or offset
per nh, the via address for each nexthop is sized according to the
maximum via address for any nexthop in the route, which is stored in a
new route field, rt_max_alen, but this is in an existing hole in
struct mpls_route so it doesn't increase the size of the
structure. Each via address is ensured to be aligned to VIA_ALEN_ALIGN
to account for architectures that don't allow unaligned accesses.

Change the selection of a multipath route to use a flow-based
hash. This more suitable for traffic sensitive to reordering within a
flow (e.g. TCP, L2VPN) and whilst still allowing a good distribution
of traffic given enough flows.
Selection of the path for a multipath route is done using a hash of:
1. Label stack up to MAX_MP_SELECT_LABELS labels or up to and
including entropy label, whichever is first.
2. 3-tuple of (L3 src, L3 dst, proto) from IPv4/IPv6 header in MPLS
payload, if present.
Naturally, a 5-tuple hash using L4 information in addition would be
possible and be better in some scenarios, but there is a tradeoff
between looking deeper into the packet to achieve good distribution,
and packet forwarding performance, and I have erred on the side of the
latter as the default.

This patch adds support for MPLS multipath routes.
Includes following changes to support multipath:
- splits struct mpls_route into 'struct mpls_route + struct mpls_nh'
- 'struct mpls_nh' represents a mpls nexthop label forwarding entry
- moves mpls route and nexthop structures into internal.h
- A mpls_route can point to multiple mpls_nh structs
- the nexthops are maintained as a array (similar to ipv4 fib)
- In the process of restructuring, this patch also consistently changes
all labels to u8
- Adds support to parse/fill RTA_MULTIPATH netlink attribute for
multipath routes similar to ipv4/v6 fib
- In this patch, the multipath route nexthop selection algorithm
simply returns the first nexthop. It is replaced by a
hash based algorithm from Robert Shearman in the next patch
- mpls_route_update cleanup: remove 'dev' handling in mpls_route_update.
mpls_route_update though implemented to update based on dev, it was
never used that way. And the dev handling gets tricky with multiple
nexthops. Cannot match against any single nexthops dev. So, this patch
removes the unused 'dev' handling in mpls_route_update.
- dead route/path handling will be implemented in a subsequent patch
Example:
$ip -f mpls route add 100 nexthop as 200 via inet 10.1.1.2 dev swp1 \
nexthop as 700 via inet 10.1.1.6 dev swp2 \
nexthop as 800 via inet 40.1.1.2 dev swp3
$ip -f mpls route show
100
nexthop as to 200 via inet 10.1.1.2 dev swp1
nexthop as to 700 via inet 10.1.1.6 dev swp2
nexthop as to 800 via inet 40.1.1.2 dev swp3
