Merge branch 'bpf-tc-tunneling'
Willem de Bruijn says:
====================
BPF allows for dynamic tunneling, choosing the tunnel destination and
features on-demand. Extend bpf_skb_adjust_room to allow for efficient
tunneling at the TC hooks.
Most features are required for large packets with GSO, as these will
be modified after this patch.
Patch 1
is a performance optimization, avoiding an unnecessary unclone
for the TCP hot path.
Patches 2..6
introduce a regression test. These can be squashed, but the code is
arguably more readable when gradually expanding the feature set.
Patch 7
is a performance optimization, avoid copying network headers
that are going to be overwritten. This also simplifies the bpf
program.
Patch 8
reenables bpf_skb_adjust_room for UDP packets.
Patch 9
configures skb tunneling metadata analogous to tunnel devices.
Patches 10..13
expand the regression test to make use of the new features and
enable the GSO testcases.
Changes
v1->v2
- move BPF_F_ADJ_ROOM_MASK out of uapi as it can be expanded
- document new flags
- in tests replace netcat -q flag with coreutils timeout:
the -q flag is not supported in all netcat versions
v2->v3
- move BPF_F_ADJ_ROOM_ENCAP_L3_MASK out of uapi as it has no
use in userspace
