TC filters come in 3 variants:
- no flag (try to process in hardware, but fallback to software))
- skip_hw (do not process filter by hardware)
- skip_sw (do not process filter by software)
However skip_sw is implemented so that the skip_sw
flag can first be checked, after it has been matched.
IMHO it's common when using skip_sw, to use it on all rules.
So if all filters in a block is skip_sw filters, then
we can bail early, we can thus avoid having to match
the filters, just to check for the skip_sw flag.
This patch adds a bypass, for when only TC skip_sw rules
are used. The bypass is guarded by a static key, to avoid
harming other workloads.
There are 3 ways that a packet from a skip_sw ruleset, can
end up in the kernel path. Although the send packets to a
non-existent chain way is only improved a few percents, then
I believe it's worth optimizing the trap and fall-though
use-cases.

Currently, the kfree_skb_reason() in sch_handle_{ingress,egress}() can only
express a basic SKB_DROP_REASON_TC_INGRESS or SKB_DROP_REASON_TC_EGRESS reason.
Victor kicked-off an initial proposal to make this more flexible by disambiguating
verdict from return code by moving the verdict into struct tcf_result and
letting tcf_classify() return a negative error. If hit, then two new drop
reasons were added in the proposal, that is SKB_DROP_REASON_TC_INGRESS_ERROR
as well as SKB_DROP_REASON_TC_EGRESS_ERROR. Further analysis of the actual
error codes would have required to attach to tcf_classify via kprobe/kretprobe
to more deeply debug skb and the returned error.
In order to make the kfree_skb_reason() in sch_handle_{ingress,egress}() more
extensible, it can be addressed in a more straight forward way, that is: Instead
of placing the verdict into struct tcf_result, we can just put the drop reason
in there, which does not require changes throughout various classful schedulers
given the existing verdict logic can stay as is.
Then, SKB_DROP_REASON_TC_ERROR{,_*} can be added to the enum skb_drop_reason
to disambiguate between an error or an intentional drop. New drop reason error
codes can be added successively to the tc code base.
For internal error locations which have not yet been annotated with a
SKB_DROP_REASON_TC_ERROR{,_*}, the fallback is SKB_DROP_REASON_TC_INGRESS and
SKB_DROP_REASON_TC_EGRESS, respectively. Generic errors could be marked with a
SKB_DROP_REASON_TC_ERROR code until they are converted to more specific ones
if it is found that they would be useful for troubleshooting.
While drop reasons have infrastructure for subsystem specific error codes which
are currently used by mac80211 and ovs, Jakub mentioned that it is preferred
for tc to use the enum skb_drop_reason core codes given it is a better fit and
currently the tooling support is better, too.
With regards to the latter:
[...] I think Alastair (bpftrace) is working on auto-prettifying enums when
bpftrace outputs maps. So we can do something like:
$ bpftrace -e 'tracepoint:skb:kfree_skb { @[args->reason] = count(); }'
Attaching 1 probe...
^C
@[SKB_DROP_REASON_TC_INGRESS]: 2
@[SKB_CONSUMED]: 34
^^^^^^^^^^^^ names!!
Auto-magically. [...]
Add a small helper tcf_set_drop_reason() which can be used to set the drop reason
into the tcf_result.

For drivers to support partial offload of a filter's action list,

CT action in particular can't be fully offloaded, as new connections
need to be handled in software. This imposes other limitations on
the actions that can be offloaded together with the CT action, such
as packet modifications.
Assign each action on a filter's action list a unique miss_cookie
which drivers can then use to fill action_miss part of the tc skb
extension. On getting back this miss_cookie, find the action

There are currently two mechanisms for populating hardware stats:
1. Using flow_offload api to query the flow's statistics.
The api assumes that the same stats values apply to all
the flow's actions.
This assumption breaks when action drops or jumps over following
actions.
2. Using hw_action api to query specific action stats via a driver
callback method. This api assures the correct action stats for
the offloaded action, however, it does not apply to the rest of the
actions in the flow's actions array.
Extend the flow_offload stats callback to indicate that a per action
stats update is required.
Use the existing flow_offload_action api to query the action's hw stats.
In addition, currently the tc action stats utility only updates hw actions.

In HTB offload mode, qdiscs of leaf classes are grafted to netdev
queues. sch_htb expects the dev_queue field of these qdiscs to point to
the corresponding queues. However, qdisc creation may fail, and in that
case noop_qdisc is used instead. Its dev_queue doesn't point to the
right queue, so sch_htb can lose track of used netdev queues, which will
cause internal inconsistencies.
This commit fixes this bug by keeping track of the netdev queue inside
struct htb_class. All reads of cl->leaf.q->dev_queue are replaced by the
new field, the two values are synced on writes, and WARNs are added to
assert equality of the two values.
The driver API has changed: when TC_HTB_LEAF_DEL needs to move a queue,
the driver used to pass the old and new queue IDs to sch_htb. Now that
there is a new field (offload_queue) in struct htb_class that needs to
be updated on this operation, the driver will pass the old class ID to
sch_htb instead (it already knows the new class ID).

and tcf_exts_validate().
This patch converts them to flags and fold them into
the upper 16 bits of "flags", whose lower 16 bits are still
reserved for user-space. More specifically, the following
kernel flags are introduced:
TCA_ACT_FLAGS_POLICE replace 'name' in a few contexts, to
distinguish whether it is compatible with policer.
TCA_ACT_FLAGS_BIND replaces 'bind', to indicate whether
this action is bound to a filter.
TCA_ACT_FLAGS_REPLACE replaces 'ovr' in most contexts,
means we are replacing an existing action.
TCA_ACT_FLAGS_NO_RTNL replaces 'rtnl_held' but has the
opposite meaning, because we still hold RTNL in most
cases.
The only user-space flag TCA_ACT_FLAGS_NO_PERCPU_STATS is
untouched and still stored as before.

HTB doesn't scale well because of contention on a single lock, and it
also consumes CPU. This patch adds support for offloading HTB to
hardware that supports hierarchical rate limiting.
In the offload mode, HTB passes control commands to the driver using
ndo_setup_tc. The driver has to replicate the whole hierarchy of classes
and their settings (rate, ceil) in the NIC. Every modification of the
HTB tree caused by the admin results in ndo_setup_tc being called.
After this setup, the HTB algorithm is done completely in the NIC. An SQ
(send queue) is created for every leaf class and attached to the
hierarchy, so that the NIC can calculate and obey aggregated rate
limits, too. In the future, it can be changed, so that multiple SQs will
back a single leaf class.
ndo_select_queue is responsible for selecting the right queue that
serves the traffic class of each packet.
The data path works as follows: a packet is classified by clsact, the
driver selects a hardware queue according to its class, and the packet
is enqueued into this queue's qdisc.
This solution addresses two main problems of scaling HTB:
1. Contention by flow classification. Currently the filters are attached
to the HTB instance as follows:
# tc filter add dev eth0 parent 1:0 protocol ip flower dst_port 80
classid 1:10
It's possible to move classification to clsact egress hook, which is
thread-safe and lock-free:
# tc filter add dev eth0 egress protocol ip flower dst_port 80
action skbedit priority 1:10
This way classification still happens in software, but the lock
contention is eliminated, and it happens before selecting the TX queue,
allowing the driver to translate the class to the corresponding hardware
queue in ndo_select_queue.
Note that this is already compatible with non-offloaded HTB and doesn't
require changes to the kernel nor iproute2.
2. Contention by handling packets. HTB is not multi-queue, it attaches
to a whole net device, and handling of all packets takes the same lock.
When HTB is offloaded, it registers itself as a multi-queue qdisc,
similarly to mq: HTB is attached to the netdev, and each queue has its
own qdisc.
Some features of HTB may be not supported by some particular hardware,
for example, the maximum number of classes may be limited, the
granularity of rate and ceil parameters may be different, etc. - so, the
offload is not enabled by default, a new parameter is used to enable it:
# tc qdisc replace dev eth0 root handle 1: htb offload

Functions tfilter_notify_chain() and tcf_get_next_proto() are always called
with rtnl lock held in current implementation. Moreover, attempting to call
them without rtnl lock would cause a warning down the call chain in
function __tcf_get_next_proto() that requires the lock to be held by
callers. Remove the 'rtnl_held' argument in order to simplify the code and
make rtnl lock requirement explicit.

nla_strlcpy now returns -E2BIG if src was truncated when written to dst.
It also returns this error value if dstsize is 0 or higher than INT_MAX.
For example, if src is "foo\0" and dst is 3 bytes long, the result will be:
1. "foG" after memcpy (G means garbage).
2. "fo\0" after memset.
3. -E2BIG is returned because src was not completely written into dst.
The callers of nla_strlcpy were modified to take into account this modification.

Mirred currently does not mix well with blocks executed after the qdisc
root lock is taken. This includes classification blocks (such as in PRIO,
ETS, DRR qdiscs) and qevents. The locking caused by the packet mirrored by
mirred can cause deadlocks: either when the thread of execution attempts to
take the lock a second time, or when two threads end up waiting on each
other's locks.
The qevent patchset attempted to not introduce further badness of this
sort, and dropped the lock before executing the qevent block. However this
lead to too little locking and races between qdisc configuration and packet
enqueue in the RED qdisc.
Before the deadlock issues are solved in a way that can be applied across
many qdiscs reasonably easily, do for qevents what is done for the
classification blocks and just keep holding the root lock.

Qevents are attach points for TC blocks, where filters can be put that are
executed when "interesting events" take place in a qdisc. The data to keep
and the functions to invoke to maintain a qevent will be largely the same
between qevents. Therefore introduce sched-wide helpers for qevent
management.
Currently, similarly to ingress and egress blocks of clsact pseudo-qdisc,
blocks attachment cannot be changed after the qdisc is created. To that
end, add a helper tcf_qevent_validate_change(), which verifies whether
block index attribute is not attached, or if it is, whether its value
matches the current one (i.e. there is no material change).
The function tcf_qevent_handle() should be invoked when qdisc hits the
"interesting event" corresponding to a block. This function releases root
lock for the duration of executing the attached filters, to allow packets
generated through user actions (notably mirred) to be reinserted to the
same qdisc tree.

When the RED Qdisc is currently configured to enable ECN, the RED algorithm
is used to decide whether a certain SKB should be marked. If that SKB is
not ECN-capable, it is early-dropped.
It is also possible to keep all traffic in the queue, and just mark the
ECN-capable subset of it, as appropriate under the RED algorithm. Some
switches support this mode, and some installations make use of it.
To that end, add a new RED flag, TC_RED_NODROP. When the Qdisc is
configured with this flag, non-ECT traffic is enqueued instead of being
early-dropped.

TC multi chain configuration can cause offloaded tc chains to miss in
hardware after jumping to some chain. In such cases the software should
continue from the chain that missed in hardware, as the hardware may
have manipulated the packet and updated some counters.
Currently a single tcf classification function serves both ingress and
egress. However, multi chain miss processing (get tc skb extension on
hw miss, set tc skb extension on tc miss) should happen only on
ingress.
Refactor the code to use ingress classification function, and move setting
the tc skb extension from general classification to it, as a prestep
for supporting the hw miss scenario.

The current implementations of ops->bind_class() are merely
searching for classid and updating class in the struct tcf_result,
without invoking either of cl_ops->bind_tcf() or
cl_ops->unbind_tcf(). This breaks the design of them as qdisc's
like cbq use them to count filters too. This is why syzbot triggered
the warning in cbq_destroy_class().
In order to fix this, we have to call cl_ops->bind_tcf() and
cl_ops->unbind_tcf() like the filter binding path. This patch does
so by refactoring out two helper functions __tcf_bind_filter()
and __tcf_unbind_filter(), which are lockless and accept a Qdisc
pointer, then teaching each implementation to call them correctly.
Note, we merely pass the Qdisc pointer as an opaque pointer to
each filter, they only need to pass it down to the helper
functions without understanding it at all.
