Currently tc skb extension is used to send miss info from
tc to ovs datapath module, and driver to tc. For the tc to ovs
miss it is currently always allocated even if it will not
be used by ovs datapath (as it depends on a requested feature).
Export the static key which is used by openvswitch module to
guard this code path as well, so it will be skipped if ovs
datapath doesn't need it. Enable this code path once
ovs datapath needs it.

Netfilter conntrack maintains NAT flags per connection indicating
whether NAT was configured for the connection. Openvswitch maintains
NAT flags on the per packet flow key ct_state field, indicating
whether NAT was actually executed on the packet.
When a packet misses from tc to ovs the conntrack NAT flags are set.
However, NAT was not necessarily executed on the packet because the
connection's state might still be in NEW state. As such, openvswitch
wrongly assumes that NAT was executed and sets an incorrect flow key
NAT flags.
Fix this, by flagging to openvswitch which NAT was actually done in
act_ct via tc_skb_ext and tc_skb_cb to the openvswitch module, so
the packet flow key NAT flags will be correctly set.

Netfilter updates for net-next
The following patchset contains Netfilter updates for net-next. This
includes one patch to update ovs and act_ct to use nf_ct_put() instead
of nf_conntrack_put().
1) Add netns_tracker to nfnetlink_log and masquerade, from Eric Dumazet.
2) Remove redundant rcu read-size lock in nf_tables packet path.
3) Replace BUG() by WARN_ON_ONCE() in nft_payload.
4) Consolidate rule verdict tracing.
5) Replace WARN_ON() by WARN_ON_ONCE() in nf_tables core.
6) Make counter support built-in in nf_tables.
7) Add new field to conntrack object to identify locally generated
traffic, from Florian Westphal.
8) Prevent NAT from shadowing well-known ports, from Florian Westphal.
9) Merge nf_flow_table_{ipv4,ipv6} into nf_flow_table_inet, also from
Florian.
10) Remove redundant pointer in nft_pipapo AVX2 support, from Colin Ian King.
11) Replace opencoded max() in conntrack, from Jiapeng Chong.
12) Update conntrack to use refcount_t API, from Florian Westphal.
13) Move ip_ct_attach indirection into the nf_ct_hook structure.
14) Constify several pointer object in the netfilter codebase,
from Florian Westphal.
15) Tree-wide replacement of nf_conntrack_put() by nf_ct_put(), also
from Florian.
16) Fix egress splat due to incorrect rcu notation, from Florian.
17) Move stateful fields of connlimit, last, quota, numgen and limit
out of the expression data area.
18) Build a blob to represent the ruleset in nf_tables, this is a
requirement of the new register tracking infrastructure.
19) Add NFT_REG32_NUM to define the maximum number of 32-bit registers.
20) Add register tracking infrastructure to skip redundant
store-to-register operations, this includes support for payload,
meta and bitwise expresssions.

Its the same as nf_conntrack_put(), but without the
need for an indirect call. The downside is a module dependency on
nf_conntrack, but all of these already depend on conntrack anyway.

Convert nf_conn reference counting from atomic_t to refcount_t based api.
refcount_t api provides more runtime sanity checks and will warn on
certain constructs, e.g. refcount_inc() on a zero reference count, which
usually indicates use-after-free.
For this reason template allocation is changed to init the refcount to
1, the subsequenct add operations are removed.
Likewise, init_conntrack() is changed to set the initial refcount to 1
instead refcount_inc().
This is safe because the new entry is not (yet) visible to other cpus.

nr_free_buffer_pages could be exposed through mm.h instead of swap.h.
The advantage of this change is that it can reduce the obsolete
includes. For example, net/ipv4/tcp.c wouldn't need swap.h any more
since it has already included mm.h. Similarly, after checking all the
other files, it comes that tcp.c, udp.c meter.c ,... follow the same
rule, so these files can have swap.h removed too.
Moreover, after preprocessing all the files that use
nr_free_buffer_pages, it turns out that those files have already
included mm.h.Thus, we can move nr_free_buffer_pages from swap.h to mm.h
safely. This change will not affect the compilation of other files.

The Open vSwitch kernel module uses the upcall mechanism to send
packets from kernel space to user space when it misses in the kernel
space flow table. The upcall sends packets via a Netlink socket.
Currently, a Netlink socket is created for every vport. In this way,
there is a 1:1 mapping between a vport and a Netlink socket.
When a packet is received by a vport, if it needs to be sent to
user space, it is sent via the corresponding Netlink socket.
This mechanism, with various iterations of the corresponding user
space code, has seen some limitations and issues:
* On systems with a large number of vports, there is a correspondingly
large number of Netlink sockets which can limit scaling.
(https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1526306)
* Packet reordering on upcalls.
(https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1844576)
* A thundering herd issue.
(https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1834444)
This patch introduces an alternative, feature-negotiated, upcall
mode using a per-cpu dispatch rather than a per-vport dispatch.
In this mode, the Netlink socket to be used for the upcall is
selected based on the CPU of the thread that is executing the upcall.
In this way, it resolves the issues above as:
a) The number of Netlink sockets scales with the number of CPUs
rather than the number of vports.
b) Ordering per-flow is maintained as packets are distributed to
CPUs based on mechanisms such as RSS and flows are distributed
to a single user space thread.
c) Packets from a flow can only wake up one user space thread.
The corresponding user space code can be found at:

This makes openvswitch module use the event tracing framework
to log the upcall interface and action execution pipeline. When
using openvswitch as the packet forwarding engine, some types of
debugging are made possible simply by using the ovs-vswitchd's
ofproto/trace command. However, such a command has some
limitations:
1. When trying to trace packets that go through the CT action,
the state of the packet can't be determined, and probably
would be potentially wrong.
2. Deducing problem packets can sometimes be difficult as well
even if many of the flows are known
3. It's possible to use the openvswitch module even without
the ovs-vswitchd (although, not common use).
Introduce the event tracing points here to make it possible for
working through these problems in kernel space. The style is
copied from the mac80211 driver-trace / trace code for
consistency - this creates some checkpatch splats, but the
official 'guide' for adding tracepoints, as well as the existing
examples all add the same splats so it seems acceptable.

We have observed meters working unexpected if traffic is 3+Gbit/s
with multiple connections.
now_ms is not pretected by meter->lock, we may get a negative
long_delta_ms when another cpu updated meter->used, then:
delta_ms = (u32)long_delta_ms;
which will be a large value.
band->bucket += delta_ms * band->rate;
then we get a wrong band->bucket.
OpenVswitch userspace datapath has fixed the same issue[1] some
time ago, and we port the implementation to kernel datapath.
