The config NF_CONNTRACK_BRIDGE will change the bridge forwarding for
fragmented packets.
The original bridge does not know that it is a fragmented packet and
forwards it directly, after NF_CONNTRACK_BRIDGE is enabled, function
nf_br_ip_fragment and br_ip6_fragment will check the headroom.
In original br_forward, insufficient headroom of skb may indeed exist,
but there's still a way to save the skb in the device driver after
dev_queue_xmit.So droping the skb will change the original bridge
forwarding in some cases.

'ip6 dscp set $v' in an nftables outpute route chain has no effect.
While nftables does detect the dscp change and calls the reroute hook.
But ip6_route_me_harder never sets the dscp/flowlabel:
flowlabel/dsfield routing rules are ignored and no reroute takes place.

mono_delivery_time was added to check if skb->tstamp has delivery
time in mono clock base (i.e. EDT) otherwise skb->tstamp has
timestamp in ingress and delivery_time at egress.
Renaming the bitfield from mono_delivery_time to tstamp_type is for
extensibilty for other timestamps such as userspace timestamp
(i.e. SO_TXTIME) set via sock opts.
As we are renaming the mono_delivery_time to tstamp_type, it makes
sense to start assigning tstamp_type based on enum defined
in this commit.
Earlier we used bool arg flag to check if the tstamp is mono in
function skb_set_delivery_time, Now the signature of the functions
accepts tstamp_type to distinguish between mono and real time.
Also skb_set_delivery_type_by_clockid is a new function which accepts
clockid to determine the tstamp_type.
In future tstamp_type:1 can be extended to support userspace timestamp
by increasing the bitfield.

Preparation patch, extra arg is not used.
No functional changes intended.
This is needed to replace the xfrm session decode functions with
the flow dissector.
skb_flow_dissect() cannot be used as-is, because it attempts to deduce the
'struct net' to use for bpf program fetch from skb->sk or skb->dev, but
xfrm code path can see skbs that have neither sk or dev filled in.
So either flow dissector needs to try harder, e.g. by also trying
skb->dst->dev, or we have to pass the struct net explicitly.
Passing the struct net doesn't look too bad to me, most places
already have it available or can derive it from the output device.

skb->tstamp was first used as the (rcv) timestamp.
The major usage is to report it to the user (e.g. SO_TIMESTAMP).
Later, skb->tstamp is also set as the (future) delivery_time (e.g. EDT in TCP)
during egress and used by the qdisc (e.g. sch_fq) to make decision on when
the skb can be passed to the dev.
Currently, there is no way to tell skb->tstamp having the (rcv) timestamp
or the delivery_time, so it is always reset to 0 whenever forwarded
between egress and ingress.
While it makes sense to always clear the (rcv) timestamp in skb->tstamp
to avoid confusing sch_fq that expects the delivery_time, it is a
performance issue [0] to clear the delivery_time if the skb finally
egress to a fq@phy-dev. For example, when forwarding from egress to
ingress and then finally back to egress:
tcp-sender => veth@netns => veth@hostns => fq@eth0@hostns
^ ^
reset rest
This patch adds one bit skb->mono_delivery_time to flag the skb->tstamp
is storing the mono delivery_time (EDT) instead of the (rcv) timestamp.
The current use case is to keep the TCP mono delivery_time (EDT) and
to be used with sch_fq. A latter patch will also allow tc-bpf@ingress
to read and change the mono delivery_time.
In the future, another bit (e.g. skb->user_delivery_time) can be added
for the SCM_TXTIME where the clock base is tracked by sk->sk_clockid.
[ This patch is a prep work. The following patches will
get the other parts of the stack ready first. Then another patch
after that will finally set the skb->mono_delivery_time. ]
skb_set_delivery_time() function is added. It is used by the tcp_output.c
and during ip[6] fragmentation to assign the delivery_time to
the skb->tstamp and also set the skb->mono_delivery_time.
A note on the change in ip_send_unicast_reply() in ip_output.c.
It is only used by TCP to send reset/ack out of a ctl_sk.
Like the new skb_set_delivery_time(), this patch sets
the skb->mono_delivery_time to 0 for now as a place
holder. It will be enabled in a latter patch.
A similar case in tcp_ipv6 can be done with
skb_set_delivery_time() in tcp_v6_send_response().

Netfilter tries to reroute mangled packets as a different route might
need to be used following the mangling. When this happens, netfilter
does not populate the IP protocol, the source port and the destination
port in the flow key. Therefore, FIB rules that match on these fields
are ignored and packets can be misrouted.
Solve this by dissecting the outer flow and populating the flow key
before rerouting the packet. Note that flow dissection only happens when
FIB rules that match on these fields are installed, so in the common
case there should not be a penalty.

If netfilter changes the packet mark when mangling, the packet is
rerouted using the route_me_harder set of functions. Prior to this
commit, there's one big difference between route_me_harder and the
ordinary initial routing functions, described in the comment above
__ip_queue_xmit():
/* Note: skb->sk can be different from sk, in case of tunnels */
int __ip_queue_xmit(struct sock *sk, struct sk_buff *skb, struct flowi *fl,
That function goes on to correctly make use of sk->sk_bound_dev_if,
rather than skb->sk->sk_bound_dev_if. And indeed the comment is true: a
tunnel will receive a packet in ndo_start_xmit with an initial skb->sk.
It will make some transformations to that packet, and then it will send
the encapsulated packet out of a *new* socket. That new socket will
basically always have a different sk_bound_dev_if (otherwise there'd be
a routing loop). So for the purposes of routing the encapsulated packet,
the routing information as it pertains to the socket should come from
that socket's sk, rather than the packet's original skb->sk. For that
reason __ip_queue_xmit() and related functions all do the right thing.
One might argue that all tunnels should just call skb_orphan(skb) before
transmitting the encapsulated packet into the new socket. But tunnels do
*not* do this -- and this is wisely avoided in skb_scrub_packet() too --
because features like TSQ rely on skb->destructor() being called when
that buffer space is truely available again. Calling skb_orphan(skb) too
early would result in buffers filling up unnecessarily and accounting
info being all wrong. Instead, additional routing must take into account
the new sk, just as __ip_queue_xmit() notes.
So, this commit addresses the problem by fishing the correct sk out of
state->sk -- it's already set properly in the call to nf_hook() in
__ip_local_out(), which receives the sk as part of its normal
functionality. So we make sure to plumb state->sk through the various
route_me_harder functions, and then make correct use of it following the
example of __ip_queue_xmit().

nf_ct_frag6_gather is part of nf_defrag_ipv6.ko, not ipv6 core.
The current use of the netfilter ipv6 stub indirections causes a module
dependency between ipv6 and nf_defrag_ipv6.
This prevents nf_defrag_ipv6 module from being removed because ipv6 can't
be unloaded.
Remove the indirection and always use a direct call. This creates a
depency from nf_conntrack_bridge to nf_defrag_ipv6 instead:
modinfo nf_conntrack
depends: nf_conntrack,nf_defrag_ipv6,bridge

Thomas found that some forwarded packets would be stuck
in FQ packet scheduler because their skb->tstamp contained
timestamps far in the future.
We thought we addressed this point in commit 8203e2d844
("net: clear skb->tstamp in forwarding paths") but there
is still an issue when/if a packet needs to be fragmented.
In order to meet EDT requirements, we have to make sure all
fragments get the original skb->tstamp.
Note that this original skb->tstamp should be zero in
forwarding path, but might have a non zero value in
output path if user decided so.

Commit 508b09046c ("netfilter: ipv6: Preserve link scope traffic
original oif") made ip6_route_me_harder() keep the original oif for
link-local and multicast packets. However, it also affected packets
for the loopback address because it used rt6_need_strict().
REDIRECT rules in the OUTPUT chain rewrite the destination to loopback
address; thus its oif should not be preserved. This commit fixes the bug
that redirected local packets are being dropped. Actually the packet was
not exactly dropped; Instead it was sent out to the original oif rather
than lo. When a packet with daddr ::1 is sent to the router, it is
effectively dropped.
