net/sched: allow flower to match tunnel options
Allow matching on options in Geneve tunnel headers. This makes use of existing tunnel metadata support. The options can be described in the form CLASS:TYPE:DATA/CLASS_MASK:TYPE_MASK:DATA_MASK, where CLASS is represented as a 16bit hexadecimal value, TYPE as an 8bit hexadecimal value and DATA as a variable length hexadecimal value. e.g. # ip link add name geneve0 type geneve dstport 0 external # tc qdisc add dev geneve0 ingress # tc filter add dev geneve0 protocol ip parent ffff: \ flower \ enc_src_ip 10.0.99.192 \ enc_dst_ip 10.0.99.193 \ enc_key_id 11 \ geneve_opts 0102:80:1122334421314151/ffff:ff:ffffffffffffffff \ ip_proto udp \ action mirred egress redirect dev eth1 This patch adds support for matching Geneve options in the order supplied by the user. This leads to an efficient implementation in the software datapath (and in our opinion hardware datapaths that offload this feature). It is also compatible with Geneve options matching provided by the Open vSwitch kernel datapath which is relevant here as the Flower classifier may be used as a mechanism to program flows into hardware as a form of Open vSwitch datapath offload (sometimes referred to as OVS-TC). The netlink Kernel/Userspace API may be extended, for example by adding a flag, if other matching options are desired, for example matching given options in any order. This would require an implementation in the TC software datapath. And be done in a way that drivers that facilitate offload of the Flower classifier can reject or accept such flows based on hardware datapath capabilities. This approach was discussed and agreed on at Netconf 2017 in Seoul.
