Allow sending a packet to conntrack module for connection tracking.

The packet will be marked with conntrack connection's state, and
any metadata such as conntrack mark and label. This state metadata
can later be matched against with tc classifers, for example with the
flower classifier as below.

In addition to committing new connections the user can optionally
specific a zone to track within, set a mark/label and configure nat
with an address range and port range.

Usage is as follows:
$ tc qdisc add dev ens1f0_0 ingress
$ tc qdisc add dev ens1f0_1 ingress

$ tc filter add dev ens1f0_0 ingress \
  prio 1 chain 0 proto ip \
  flower ip_proto tcp ct_state -trk \
  action ct zone 2 pipe \
  action goto chain 2
$ tc filter add dev ens1f0_0 ingress \
  prio 1 chain 2 proto ip \
  flower ct_state +trk+new \
  action ct zone 2 commit mark 0xbb nat src addr 5.5.5.7 pipe \
  action mirred egress redirect dev ens1f0_1
$ tc filter add dev ens1f0_0 ingress \
  prio 1 chain 2 proto ip \
  flower ct_zone 2 ct_mark 0xbb ct_state +trk+est \
  action ct nat pipe \
  action mirred egress redirect dev ens1f0_1

  action goto chain 1
$ tc filter add dev ens1f0_1 ingress \

<title>net: sched: add mpls manipulation actions to TC</title>

<content type='text'>
Currently, TC offers the ability to match on the MPLS fields of a packet
through the use of the flow_dissector_key_mpls struct. However, as yet, TC
actions do not allow the modification or manipulation of such fields.

Add a new module that registers TC action ops to allow manipulation of
MPLS. This includes the ability to push and pop headers as well as modify
the contents of new or existing headers. A further action to decrement the
TTL field of an MPLS header is also provided with a new helper added to
support this.

Examples of the usage of the new action with flower rules to push and pop
MPLS labels are:

tc filter add dev eth0 protocol ip parent ffff: flower \
    action mpls push protocol mpls_uc label 123  \
    action mirred egress redirect dev eth1

tc filter add dev eth0 protocol mpls_uc parent ffff: flower \
    action mpls pop protocol ipv4  \
    action mirred egress redirect dev eth1

<id>24ec483cec981618f8a4782a36d1e3f319d42cad</id>
<content type='text'>
ctinfo is a new tc filter action module.  It is designed to restore
information contained in firewall conntrack marks to other packet fields
and is typically used on packet ingress paths.  At present it has two
independent sub-functions or operating modes, DSCP restoration mode &amp;
skb mark restoration mode.

The DSCP restore mode:

This mode copies DSCP values that have been placed in the firewall
conntrack mark back into the IPv4/v6 diffserv fields of relevant
packets.

The DSCP restoration is intended for use and has been found useful for
restoring ingress classifications based on egress classifications across
links that bleach or otherwise change DSCP, typically home ISP Internet
links.  Restoring DSCP on ingress on the WAN link allows qdiscs such as
but by no means limited to CAKE to shape inbound packets according to
policies that are easier to set &amp; mark on egress.

Ingress classification is traditionally a challenging task since
iptables rules haven't yet run and tc filter/eBPF programs are pre-NAT
lookups, hence are unable to see internal IPv4 addresses as used on the
typical home masquerading gateway.  Thus marking the connection in some
manner on egress for later restoration of classification on ingress is
easier to implement.

Parameters related to DSCP restore mode:

dscpmask - a 32 bit mask of 6 contiguous bits and indicate bits of the
conntrack mark field contain the DSCP value to be restored.

statemask - a 32 bit mask of (usually) 1 bit length, outside the area
specified by dscpmask.  This represents a conditional operation flag
whereby the DSCP is only restored if the flag is set.  This is useful to
implement a 'one shot' iptables based classification where the
'complicated' iptables rules are only run once to classify the
connection on initial (egress) packet and subsequent packets are all
marked/restored with the same DSCP.  A mask of zero disables the
conditional behaviour ie. the conntrack mark DSCP bits are always
restored to the ip diffserv field (assuming the conntrack entry is found
&amp; the skb is an ipv4/ipv6 type)

e.g. dscpmask 0xfc000000 statemask 0x01000000

|----0xFC----conntrack mark----000000---|
| Bits 31-26 | bit 25 | bit24 |~~~ Bit 0|
| DSCP       | unused | flag  |unused   |
|-----------------------0x01---000000---|
      |                   |
      |                   |
      ---|             Conditional flag
         v             only restore if set
|-ip diffserv-|
| 6 bits      |
|-------------|

The skb mark restore mode (cpmark):

This mode copies the firewall conntrack mark to the skb's mark field.
It is completely the functional equivalent of the existing act_connmark
action with the additional feature of being able to apply a mask to the
restored value.

Parameters related to skb mark restore mode:

mask - a 32 bit mask applied to the firewall conntrack mark to mask out
bits unwanted for restoration.  This can be useful where the conntrack
mark is being used for different purposes by different applications.  If
not specified and by default the whole mark field is copied (i.e.
default mask of 0xffffffff)

e.g. mask 0x00ffffff to mask out the top 8 bits being used by the
aforementioned DSCP restore mode.

|----0x00----conntrack mark----ffffff---|
| Bits 31-24 |                          |
| DSCP &amp; flag|      some value here     |

Overall parameters:

zone - conntrack zone

control - action related control (reclassify | pipe | drop | continue |
ok | goto chain &lt;CHAIN_INDEX&gt;)

<title>tc: Add support for configuring the taprio scheduler</title>

<id>5a781ccbd19e4664babcbe4b4ead7aa2b9283d22</id>
<content type='text'>
This traffic scheduler allows traffic classes states (transmission
allowed/not allowed, in the simplest case) to be scheduled, according
to a pre-generated time sequence. This is the basis of the IEEE
802.1Qbv specification.

Example configuration:

tc qdisc replace dev enp3s0 parent root handle 100 taprio \
          num_tc 3 \
	  map 2 2 1 0 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 \
	  queues 1@0 1@1 2@2 \
	  base-time 1528743495910289987 \
	  sched-entry S 01 300000 \
	  sched-entry S 02 300000 \
	  sched-entry S 04 300000 \
	  clockid CLOCK_TAI

The configuration format is similar to mqprio. The main difference is
the presence of a schedule, built by multiple "sched-entry"
definitions, each entry has the following format:

     sched-entry &lt;CMD&gt; &lt;GATE MASK&gt; &lt;INTERVAL&gt;

The only supported &lt;CMD&gt; is "S", which means "SetGateStates",
following the IEEE 802.1Qbv-2015 definition (Table 8-6). &lt;GATE MASK&gt;
is a bitmask where each bit is a associated with a traffic class, so
bit 0 (the least significant bit) being "on" means that traffic class
0 is "active" for that schedule entry. &lt;INTERVAL&gt; is a time duration
in nanoseconds that specifies for how long that state defined by &lt;CMD&gt;
and &lt;GATE MASK&gt; should be held before moving to the next entry.

This schedule is circular, that is, after the last entry is executed
it starts from the first one, indefinitely.

The other parameters can be defined as follows:

 - base-time: specifies the instant when the schedule starts, if
  'base-time' is a time in the past, the schedule will start at

 	      base-time + (N * cycle-time)

   where N is the smallest integer so the resulting time is greater
   than "now", and "cycle-time" is the sum of all the intervals of the
   entries in the schedule;

 - clockid: specifies the reference clock to be used;

The parameters should be similar to what the IEEE 802.1Q family of
specification defines.

Skbprio (SKB Priority Queue) is a queueing discipline that prioritizes packets
according to their skb-&gt;priority field. Under congestion, already-enqueued lower
priority packets will be dropped to make space available for higher priority
packets. Skbprio was conceived as a solution for denial-of-service defenses that
need to route packets with different priorities as a means to overcome DoS
attacks.

v5
*Do not reference qdisc_dev(sch)-&gt;tx_queue_len for setting limit. Instead set
default sch-&gt;limit to 64.

v4
*Drop Documentation/networking/sch_skbprio.txt doc file to move it to tc man
page for Skbprio, in iproute2.

v3
*Drop max_limit parameter in struct skbprio_sched_data and instead use
sch-&gt;limit.

*Reference qdisc_dev(sch)-&gt;tx_queue_len only once, during initialisation for
qdisc (previously being referenced every time qdisc changes).

*Move qdisc's detailed description from in-code to Documentation/networking.

*When qdisc is saturated, enqueue incoming packet first before dequeueing
lowest priority packet in queue - improves usage of call stack registers.

*Introduce and use overlimit stat to keep track of number of dropped packets.

v2
*Use skb-&gt;priority field rather than DS field. Rename queueing discipline as
SKB Priority Queue (previously Gatekeeper Priority Queue).

*Queueing discipline is made classful to expose Skbprio's internal priority
queues.

sch_cake targets the home router use case and is intended to squeeze the
most bandwidth and latency out of even the slowest ISP links and routers,
while presenting an API simple enough that even an ISP can configure it.

Example of use on a cable ISP uplink:

tc qdisc add dev eth0 cake bandwidth 20Mbit nat docsis ack-filter

To shape a cable download link (ifb and tc-mirred setup elided)

tc qdisc add dev ifb0 cake bandwidth 200mbit nat docsis ingress wash

CAKE is filled with:

* A hybrid Codel/Blue AQM algorithm, "Cobalt", tied to an FQ_Codel
  derived Flow Queuing system, which autoconfigures based on the bandwidth.
* A novel "triple-isolate" mode (the default) which balances per-host
  and per-flow FQ even through NAT.
* An deficit based shaper, that can also be used in an unlimited mode.
* 8 way set associative hashing to reduce flow collisions to a minimum.
* A reasonable interpretation of various diffserv latency/loss tradeoffs.
* Support for zeroing diffserv markings for entering and exiting traffic.
* Support for interacting well with Docsis 3.0 shaper framing.
* Extensive support for DSL framing types.
* Support for ack filtering.
* Extensive statistics for measuring, loss, ecn markings, latency
  variation.

A paper describing the design of CAKE is available at
https://arxiv.org/abs/1804.07617, and will be published at the 2018 IEEE
International Symposium on Local and Metropolitan Area Networks (LANMAN).

This patch adds the base shaper and packet scheduler, while subsequent
commits add the optional (configurable) features. The full userspace API
and most data structures are included in this commit, but options not
understood in the base version will be ignored.

Various versions baking have been available as an out of tree build for
kernel versions going back to 3.10, as the embedded router world has been
running a few years behind mainline Linux. A stable version has been
generally available on lede-17.01 and later.

sch_cake replaces a combination of iptables, tc filter, htb and fq_codel
in the sqm-scripts, with sane defaults and vastly simpler configuration.

CAKE's principal author is Jonathan Morton, with contributions from
Kevin Darbyshire-Bryant, Toke Høiland-Jørgensen, Sebastian Moeller,
Ryan Mounce, Tony Ambardar, Dean Scarff, Nils Andreas Svee, Dave Täht,
and Loganaden Velvindron.

Testing from Pete Heist, Georgios Amanakis, and the many other members of
the cake@lists.bufferbloat.net mailing list.

<title>net/sched: Introduce the ETF Qdisc</title>
<updated>2018-07-04T13:30:27+00:00</updated>

<id>25db26a91364db00f5a30da2fea8e9afe14a163c</id>
<content type='text'>
The ETF (Earliest TxTime First) qdisc uses the information added
earlier in this series (the socket option SO_TXTIME and the new
role of sk_buff-&gt;tstamp) to schedule packets transmission based
on absolute time.

For some workloads, just bandwidth enforcement is not enough, and
precise control of the transmission of packets is necessary.

Example:

$ tc qdisc replace dev enp2s0 parent root handle 100 mqprio num_tc 3 \
           map 2 2 1 0 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 2 queues 1@0 1@1 2@2 hw 0

$ tc qdisc add dev enp2s0 parent 100:1 etf delta 100000 \
           clockid CLOCK_TAI

In this example, the Qdisc will provide SW best-effort for the control
of the transmission time to the network adapter, the time stamp in the
socket will be in reference to the clockid CLOCK_TAI and packets
will leave the qdisc "delta" (100000) nanoseconds before its transmission
time.

The ETF qdisc will buffer packets sorted by their txtime. It will drop
packets on enqueue() if their skbuff clockid does not match the clock
reference of the Qdisc. Moreover, on dequeue(), a packet will be dropped
if it expires while being enqueued.

The qdisc also supports the SO_TXTIME deadline mode. For this mode, it
will dequeue a packet as soon as possible and change the skb timestamp
to 'now' during etf_dequeue().

Note that both the qdisc's and the SO_TXTIME ABIs allow for a clockid
to be configured, but it's been decided that usage of CLOCK_TAI should
be enforced until we decide to allow for other clockids to be used.
The rationale here is that PTP times are usually in the TAI scale, thus
no other clocks should be necessary. For now, the qdisc will return
EINVAL if any clocks other than CLOCK_TAI are used.

The commit a new tc ematch for using netfilter xtable matches.

This allows early classification as well as mirroning/redirecting traffic
based on logic implemented in netfilter extensions.

Current supported use case is classification based on the incoming IPSec
state used during decpsulation using the 'policy' iptables extension
(xt_policy).

The module dynamically fetches the netfilter match module and calls
it using a fake xt_action_param structure based on validated userspace
provided parameters.

As the xt_policy match does not access skb-&gt;data, no skb modifications
are needed on match.
