Adding Sparx5 IS0 VCAP support

This provides the Ingress Stage 0 (IS0) VCAP (Versatile Content-Aware
Processor) support for the Sparx5 platform.

The IS0 VCAP (also known in the datasheet as CLM) is a classifier VCAP that
mainly extracts frame information to metadata that follows the frame in the
Sparx5 processing flow all the way to the egress port.

The IS0 VCAP has 4 lookups and they are accessible with a TC chain id:

- chain 1000000: IS0 Lookup 0
- chain 1100000: IS0 Lookup 1
- chain 1200000: IS0 Lookup 2
- chain 1300000: IS0 Lookup 3
- chain 1400000: IS0 Lookup 4
- chain 1500000: IS0 Lookup 5

Each of these lookups have their own port keyset configuration that decides
which keys will be used for matching on which traffic type.

The IS0 VCAP has these traffic classifications:

- IPv4 frames
- IPv6 frames
- Unicast MPLS frames (ethertype = 0x8847)
- Multicast MPLS frames (ethertype = 0x8847)
- Other frame types than MPLS, IPv4 and IPv6

The IS0 VCAP has an action that allows setting the value of a PAG (Policy
Association Group) key field in the frame metadata, and this can be used
for matching in an IS2 VCAP rule.

This allow rules in the IS0 VCAP to be linked to rules in the IS2 VCAP.

The linking is exposed by using the TC "goto chain" action with an offset
from the IS2 chain ids.

As an example a "goto chain 8000001" will use a PAG value of 1 to chain to
a rule in IS2 Lookup 0.

Add IP_LOCAL_PORT_RANGE socket option

This patch set is a follow up to the "How to share IPv4 addresses by
partitioning the port space" talk given at LPC 2022 [1].

Please see patch #1 for the motivation & the use case description.
Patch #2 adds tests exercising the new option in various scenarios.

Documentation
-------------

Proposed update to the ip(7) man-page:

       IP_LOCAL_PORT_RANGE (since Linux X.Y)
              Set or get the per-socket default local  port  range.  This
              option  can  be  used  to  clamp down the global local port
              range, defined by the ip_local_port_range  /proc  interface
              described below, for a given socket.

              The  option  takes  an uint32_t value with the high 16 bits
              set to the upper range bound, and the low 16  bits  set  to
              the  lower  range  bound.  Range  bounds are inclusive. The
              16-bit values should be in host byte order.

              The lower bound has to be less than the  upper  bound  when
              both  bounds  are  not  zero. Otherwise, setting the option
              fails with EINVAL.

              If either bound is outside of the global local port  range,
              or is zero, then that bound has no effect.

              To  reset  the setting, pass zero as both the upper and the
              lower bound.

Interaction with SELinux bind() hook
------------------------------------

SELinux bind() hook - selinux_socket_bind() - performs a permission check
if the requested local port number lies outside of the netns ephemeral port
range.

The proposed socket option cannot be used change the ephemeral port range
to extend beyond the per-netns port range, as set by
net.ipv4.ip_local_port_range.

Hence, there is no interaction with SELinux, AFAICT.

RFC -> v1
RFC: https://lore.kernel.org/netdev/20220912225308.93659-1-jakub@cloudflare.com/

Users who want to share a single public IP address for outgoing connections
between several hosts traditionally reach for SNAT. However, SNAT requires
state keeping on the node(s) performing the NAT.

A stateless alternative exists, where a single IP address used for egress
can be shared between several hosts by partitioning the available ephemeral
port range. In such a setup:

1. Each host gets assigned a disjoint range of ephemeral ports.
2. Applications open connections from the host-assigned port range.
3. Return traffic gets routed to the host based on both, the destination IP
   and the destination port.

An application which wants to open an outgoing connection (connect) from a
given port range today can choose between two solutions:

1. Manually pick the source port by bind()'ing to it before connect()'ing
   the socket.

   This approach has a couple of downsides:

   a) Search for a free port has to be implemented in the user-space. If
      the chosen 4-tuple happens to be busy, the application needs to retry
      from a different local port number.

      Detecting if 4-tuple is busy can be either easy (TCP) or hard
      (UDP). In TCP case, the application simply has to check if connect()
      returned an error (EADDRNOTAVAIL). That is assuming that the local
      port sharing was enabled (REUSEADDR) by all the sockets.

        # Assume desired local port range is 60_000-60_511
        s = socket(AF_INET, SOCK_STREAM)
        s.setsockopt(SOL_SOCKET, SO_REUSEADDR, 1)
        s.bind(("192.0.2.1", 60_000))
        s.connect(("1.1.1.1", 53))
        # Fails only if 192.0.2.1:60000 -> 1.1.1.1:53 is busy
        # Application must retry with another local port

      In case of UDP, the network stack allows binding more than one socket
      to the same 4-tuple, when local port sharing is enabled
      (REUSEADDR). Hence detecting the conflict is much harder and involves
      querying sock_diag and toggling the REUSEADDR flag [1].

   b) For TCP, bind()-ing to a port within the ephemeral port range means
      that no connecting sockets, that is those which leave it to the
      network stack to find a free local port at connect() time, can use
      the this port.

      IOW, the bind hash bucket tb->fastreuse will be 0 or 1, and the port
      will be skipped during the free port search at connect() time.

2. Isolate the app in a dedicated netns and use the use the per-netns
   ip_local_port_range sysctl to adjust the ephemeral port range bounds.

   The per-netns setting affects all sockets, so this approach can be used
   only if:

   - there is just one egress IP address, or
   - the desired egress port range is the same for all egress IP addresses
     used by the application.

   For TCP, this approach avoids the downsides of (1). Free port search and
   4-tuple conflict detection is done by the network stack:

     system("sysctl -w net.ipv4.ip_local_port_range='60000 60511'")

     s = socket(AF_INET, SOCK_STREAM)
     s.setsockopt(SOL_IP, IP_BIND_ADDRESS_NO_PORT, 1)
     s.bind(("192.0.2.1", 0))
     s.connect(("1.1.1.1", 53))
     # Fails if all 4-tuples 192.0.2.1:60000-60511 -> 1.1.1.1:53 are busy

  For UDP this approach has limited applicability. Setting the
  IP_BIND_ADDRESS_NO_PORT socket option does not result in local source
  port being shared with other connected UDP sockets.

  Hence relying on the network stack to find a free source port, limits the
  number of outgoing UDP flows from a single IP address down to the number
  of available ephemeral ports.

To put it another way, partitioning the ephemeral port range between hosts
using the existing Linux networking API is cumbersome.

To address this use case, add a new socket option at the SOL_IP level,
named IP_LOCAL_PORT_RANGE. The new option can be used to clamp down the
ephemeral port range for each socket individually.

The option can be used only to narrow down the per-netns local port
range. If the per-socket range lies outside of the per-netns range, the
latter takes precedence.

UAPI-wise, the low and high range bounds are passed to the kernel as a pair
of u16 values in host byte order packed into a u32. This avoids pointer
passing.

  PORT_LO = 40_000
  PORT_HI = 40_511

  s = socket(AF_INET, SOCK_STREAM)
  v = struct.pack("I", PORT_HI << 16 | PORT_LO)
  s.setsockopt(SOL_IP, IP_LOCAL_PORT_RANGE, v)
  s.bind(("127.0.0.1", 0))
  s.getsockname()
  # Local address between ("127.0.0.1", 40_000) and ("127.0.0.1", 40_511),
  # if there is a free port. EADDRINUSE otherwise.

drivers/s390/net/ism: Add generalized interface

Previously, there was no clean separation between SMC-D code and the ISM
device driver.This patch series addresses the situation to make ISM available
for uses outside of SMC-D.
In detail: SMC-D offers an interface via struct smcd_ops, which only the
ISM module implements so far. However, there is no real separation between
the smcd and ism modules, which starts right with the ISM device
initialization, which calls directly into the SMC-D code.
This patch series introduces a new API in the ISM module, which allows
registration of arbitrary clients via include/linux/ism.h: struct ism_client.
Furthermore, it introduces a "pure" struct ism_dev (i.e. getting rid of
dependencies on SMC-D in the device structure), and adds a number of API
calls for data transfers via ISM (see ism_register_dmb() & friends).
Still, the ISM module implements the SMC-D API, and therefore has a number
of internal helper functions for that matter.
Note that the ISM API is consciously kept thin for now (as compared to the
SMC-D API calls), as a number of API calls are only used with SMC-D and
hardly have any meaningful usage beyond SMC-D, e.g. the VLAN-related calls.

Conceptually, a DMB is a structure that belongs to ISM devices. However,
SMC currently 'owns' this structure. So future exploiters of ISM devices
would be forced to include SMC headers to work - which is just weird.
Therefore, we switch ISM to struct ism_dmb, introduce a new public header
with the definition (will be populated with further API calls later on),
and, add a thin wrapper to please SMC. Since structs smcd_dmb and ism_dmb
are identical, we can simply convert between the two for now.

The changes in this patch are as follows:

- Alter the logic of get/set_eeprom functions to use the helper function
nfp_app_from_netdev() which handles differentiating between an nfp_net
and a nfp_repr. This allows us to get an agnostic backpointer to the
pdev.

- Enable the various eeprom commands by adding the 'get_eeprom_len',
'get_eeprom', 'set_eeprom' callbacks to the nfp_port_ethtool_ops struct.
This allows the eeprom commands to work on representor interfaces,
similar to a previous patch which added it to the vnics.
Currently these are being used to configure persistent MAC addresses for
the physical ports on the nfp.

for output.

It's meant as a development tool primarily and perhaps
for selftests which need to tickle netlink in a special way.

Generate and plug in the spec-based tables.

A little bit of renaming is needed in the FOU code.

We'll need to link two objects together to form the fou module.
This means the source can't be called fou, the build system expects
fou.o to be the combined object.

Regenerate the FOU uAPI header from the YAML spec.

The flags now come before attributes which use them,
and the comments for type disappear (coders should look
at the spec instead).

Code generators to turn Netlink specs into C code.
I'm definitely not proud of it.

The main generator is in Python, there's a bash script
to regen all code-gen'ed files in tree after making
spec changes.

Add schemas for Netlink spec files. As described in the docs
we have 4 "protocols" or compatibility levels, and each one
comes with its own schema, but the more general / legacy
schemas are superset of more modern ones: genetlink is
the smallest followed by genetlink-c and genetlink-legacy.
There is no schema for raw netlink, yet, I haven't found the time..

I don't know enough jsonschema to do inheritance or something
but the repetition is not too bad. I hope.

Davide Caratti says:

====================
net/sched: use the backlog for nested mirred ingress

TC mirred has a protection against excessive stack growth, but that
protection doesn't really guarantee the absence of recursion, nor
it guards against loops. Patch 1/2 rewords "recursion" to "nesting" to
make this more clear.
We can leverage on this existing mechanism to prevent TCP / SCTP from doing
soft lock-up in some specific scenarios that uses mirred egress->ingress:
patch 2 changes mirred so that the networking backlog is used for nested
mirred ingress actions.
