Add the fields of the conntrack original direction 5-tuple to struct
sw_flow_key. The new fields are initially marked as non-existent, and
are populated whenever a conntrack action is executed and either finds
or generates a conntrack entry. This means that these fields exist
for all packets that were not rejected by conntrack as untrackable.
The original tuple fields in the sw_flow_key are filled from the
original direction tuple of the conntrack entry relating to the
current packet, or from the original direction tuple of the master
conntrack entry, if the current conntrack entry has a master.
Generally, expected connections of connections having an assigned
helper (e.g., FTP), have a master conntrack entry.
The main purpose of the new conntrack original tuple fields is to
allow matching on them for policy decision purposes, with the premise
that the admissibility of tracked connections reply packets (as well
as original direction packets), and both direction packets of any
related connections may be based on ACL rules applying to the master
connection's original direction 5-tuple. This also makes it easier to
make policy decisions when the actual packet headers might have been
transformed by NAT, as the original direction 5-tuple represents the
packet headers before any such transformation.
When using the original direction 5-tuple the admissibility of return
and/or related packets need not be based on the mere existence of a
conntrack entry, allowing separation of admission policy from the
established conntrack state. While existence of a conntrack entry is
required for admission of the return or related packets, policy
changes can render connections that were initially admitted to be
rejected or dropped afterwards. If the admission of the return and
related packets was based on mere conntrack state (e.g., connection
being in an established state), a policy change that would make the
connection rejected or dropped would need to find and delete all
conntrack entries affected by such a change. When using the original
direction 5-tuple matching the affected conntrack entries can be
allowed to time out instead, as the established state of the
connection would not need to be the basis for packet admission any
more.
It should be noted that the directionality of related connections may
be the same or different than that of the master connection, and
neither the original direction 5-tuple nor the conntrack state bits
carry this information. If needed, the directionality of the master
connection can be stored in master's conntrack mark or labels, which
are automatically inherited by the expected related connections.
The fact that neither ARP nor ND packets are trackable by conntrack
allows mutual exclusion between ARP/ND and the new conntrack original
tuple fields. Hence, the IP addresses are overlaid in union with ARP
and ND fields. This allows the sw_flow_key to not grow much due to
this patch, but it also means that we must be careful to never use the
new key fields with ARP or ND packets. ARP is easy to distinguish and
keep mutually exclusive based on the ethernet type, but ND being an
ICMPv6 protocol requires a bit more attention.

While transitioning to netdev based vport we broke OVS
feature which allows user to retrieve tunnel packet egress
information for lwtunnel devices. Following patch fixes it
by introducing ndo operation to get the tunnel egress info.
Same ndo operation can be used for lwtunnel devices and compat
ovs-tnl-vport devices. So after adding such device operation
we can remove similar operation from ovs-vport.
Fixes: 614732eaa12d ("openvswitch: Use regular VXLAN net_device device").

Allow matching and setting the ct_label field. As with ct_mark, this is
populated by executing the CT action. The label field may be modified by
specifying a label and mask nested under the CT action. It is stored as
metadata attached to the connection. Label modification occurs after
lookup, and will only persist when the conntrack entry is committed by
providing the COMMIT flag to the CT action. Labels are currently fixed
to 128 bits in size.

Expose the kernel connection tracker via OVS. Userspace components can
make use of the CT action to populate the connection state (ct_state)
field for a flow. This state can be subsequently matched.
Exposed connection states are OVS_CS_F_*:
- NEW (0x01) - Beginning of a new connection.
- ESTABLISHED (0x02) - Part of an existing connection.
- RELATED (0x04) - Related to an established connection.
- INVALID (0x20) - Could not track the connection for this packet.
- REPLY_DIR (0x40) - This packet is in the reply direction for the flow.
- TRACKED (0x80) - This packet has been sent through conntrack.
When the CT action is executed by itself, it will send the packet
through the connection tracker and populate the ct_state field with one
or more of the connection state flags above. The CT action will always
set the TRACKED bit.
When the COMMIT flag is passed to the conntrack action, this specifies
that information about the connection should be stored. This allows
subsequent packets for the same (or related) connections to be
correlated with this connection. Sending subsequent packets for the
connection through conntrack allows the connection tracker to consider
the packets as ESTABLISHED, RELATED, and/or REPLY_DIR.
The CT action may optionally take a zone to track the flow within. This
allows connections with the same 5-tuple to be kept logically separate
from connections in other zones. If the zone is specified, then the
"ct_zone" match field will be subsequently populated with the zone id.
IP fragments are handled by transparently assembling them as part of the
CT action. The maximum received unit (MRU) size is tracked so that
refragmentation can occur during output.
IP frag handling contributed by Andy Zhou.
Based on original design by Justin Pettit.

Rename the tunnel metadata data structures currently internal to
OVS and make them generic for use by all IP tunnels.
Both structures are kernel internal and will stay that way. Their
members are exposed to user space through individual Netlink
attributes by OVS. It will therefore be possible to extend/modify
these structures without affecting user ABI.

Previously, flows were manipulated by userspace specifying a full,
unmasked flow key. This adds significant burden onto flow
serialization/deserialization, particularly when dumping flows.
This patch adds an alternative way to refer to flows using a
variable-length "unique flow identifier" (UFID). At flow setup time,
userspace may specify a UFID for a flow, which is stored with the flow
and inserted into a separate table for lookup, in addition to the
standard flow table. Flows created using a UFID must be fetched or
deleted using the UFID.
All flow dump operations may now be made more terse with OVS_UFID_F_*
flags. For example, the OVS_UFID_F_OMIT_KEY flag allows responses to
omit the flow key from a datapath operation if the flow has a
corresponding UFID. This significantly reduces the time spent assembling
and transacting netlink messages. With all OVS_UFID_F_OMIT_* flags
enabled, the datapath only returns the UFID and statistics for each flow
during flow dump, increasing ovs-vswitchd revalidator performance by 40%
or more.

Refactor the ovs_nla_fill_match() function into separate netlink
serialization functions ovs_nla_put_{unmasked_key,mask}(). Modify
ovs_nla_put_flow() to handle attribute nesting and expose the 'is_mask'
parameter - all callers need to nest the flow, and callers have better
knowledge about whether it is serializing a mask or not.

OVS vswitch has extended IPFIX exporter to export tunnel headers
to improve network visibility.
To export this information userspace needs to know egress tunnel
for given packet. By extending packet attributes datapath can
export egress tunnel info for given packet. So that userspace
can ask for egress tunnel info in userspace action. This
information is used to build IPFIX data for given flow.

With mega flow implementation ovs flow can be shared between
multiple CPUs which makes stats updates highly contended
operation. This patch uses per-CPU stats in cases where a flow
is likely to be shared (if there is a wildcard in the 5-tuple
and therefore likely to be spread by RSS). In other situations,
it uses the current strategy, saving memory and allocation time.
