OVS has support for using policing to enforce a rate limit in
kilobits per second. This is configured using OVSDB. f.e.
$ ovs-vsctl set interface tap0 ingress_policing_rate=1000
$ ovs-vsctl set interface tap0 ingress_policing_burst=100
This patch adds a related feature, allowing policing to enforce a rate
limit in kilo-packets per second. This is also configured using OVSDB.
$ ovs-vsctl set interface tap0 ingress_policing_kpkts_rate=1000
$ ovs-vsctl set interface tap0 ingress_policing_kpkts_burst=100
The kilo-bit and kilo-packet rate limits may be used separately or in
combination.
Add separate action for BPS and PPS in netlink message.
Revise code and change action result to pipe to allow
traffic pipe into second action.
This patch implements the feature for:
* OVSDB (northbound API)
* TC policer when used both with and without TC offload (kernel API)

Usually TSO packets are close to 50k, 60k bytes long, so to
to copy less bytes when receiving a packet from the kernel
change the approach. Instead of extending the MTU sized
packet received and append with remaining TSO data from
the TSO buffer, allocate a TSO packet with enough headroom
to prepend the std packet data.

The dp_packet length is limited to 16 bits, so document that
and fix the length value accordingly.

The patch detects the numa node id from the name of the netdev,
by reading the '/sys/class/net/<devname>/device/numa_node'.
If not available, ex: virtual device, or any error happens,
return numa id 0. Currently only the afxdp netdev type uses it,
other linux netdev types are disabled due to no use case.

Abbreviated as TSO, TCP Segmentation Offload is a feature which enables
the network stack to delegate the TCP segmentation to the NIC reducing
the per packet CPU overhead.
A guest using vhostuser interface with TSO enabled can send TCP packets
much bigger than the MTU, which saves CPU cycles normally used to break
the packets down to MTU size and to calculate checksums.
It also saves CPU cycles used to parse multiple packets/headers during
the packet processing inside virtual switch.
If the destination of the packet is another guest in the same host, then
the same big packet can be sent through a vhostuser interface skipping
the segmentation completely. However, if the destination is not local,
the NIC hardware is instructed to do the TCP segmentation and checksum
calculation.
It is recommended to check if NIC hardware supports TSO before enabling
the feature, which is off by default. For additional information please
check the tso.rst document.

Marking the structure as 64 bytes aligned forces compiler to produce
big holes in the containing structures in order to fulfill this
requirement. Also, any structure that contains this one as a member
automatically inherits this huge alignment making resulted memory
layout not efficient. For example, 'struct umem_pool' currently
uses 3 full cache lines (192 bytes) with only 32 bytes of actual data:
struct umem_pool {
int index; /* 0 4 */
unsigned int size; /* 4 4 */
/* XXX 56 bytes hole, try to pack */
/* --- cacheline 1 boundary (64 bytes) --- */
struct ovs_spin lock __attribute__((__aligned__(64))); /* 64 64 */
/* XXX last struct has 48 bytes of padding */
/* --- cacheline 2 boundary (128 bytes) --- */
void * * array; /* 128 8 */
/* size: 192, cachelines: 3, members: 4 */
/* sum members: 80, holes: 1, sum holes: 56 */
/* padding: 56 */
/* paddings: 1, sum paddings: 48 */
/* forced alignments: 1, forced holes: 1, sum forced holes: 56 */
} __attribute__((__aligned__(64)));
Actual alignment of a spin lock is required only for Tx queue locks
inside netdev-afxdp to avoid false sharing, in all other cases
alignment only produces inefficient memory usage.
Also, CACHE_LINE_SIZE macro should be used instead of 64 as different
platforms may have different cache line sizes.
Using PADDED_MEMBERS to avoid alignment inheritance.

Until now there was only two options for XDP mode in OVS: SKB or DRV.
i.e. 'generic XDP' or 'native XDP with zero-copy enabled'.
Devices like 'veth' interfaces in Linux supports native XDP, but
doesn't support zero-copy mode. This case can not be covered by
existing API and we have to use slower generic XDP for such devices.
There are few more issues, e.g. TCP is not supported in generic XDP
mode for veth interfaces due to kernel limitations, however it is
supported in native mode.
This change introduces ability to use native XDP without zero-copy
along with best-effort configuration option that enabled by default.
In best-effort case OVS will sequentially try different modes starting
from the fastest one and will choose the first acceptable for current
interface. This will guarantee the best possible performance.
If user will want to choose specific mode, it's still possible by
setting the 'options:xdp-mode'.
This change additionally changes the API by renaming the configuration
knob from 'xdpmode' to 'xdp-mode' and also renaming the modes
themselves to be more user-friendly.
The full list of currently supported modes:
* native-with-zerocopy - former DRV
* native - new one, DRV without zero-copy
* generic - former SKB
* best-effort - new one, chooses the best available from
3 above modes
Since 'best-effort' is a default mode, users will not need to
explicitely set 'xdp-mode' in most cases.
TCP related tests enabled back in system afxdp testsuite, because
'best-effort' will choose 'native' mode for veth interfaces
and this mode has no issues with TCP.

The patch adds support for using need_wakeup flag in AF_XDP rings.
A new option, use-need-wakeup, is added. When this option is used,
it means that OVS has to explicitly wake up the kernel RX, using poll()
syscall and wake up TX, using sendto() syscall. This feature improves
the performance by avoiding unnecessary sendto syscalls for TX.
For RX, instead of kernel always busy-spinning on fille queue, OVS wakes
up the kernel RX processing when fill queue is replenished.
The need_wakeup feature is merged into Linux kernel bpf-next tee with commit
77cd0d7b3f25 ("xsk: add support for need_wakeup flag in AF_XDP rings") and
OVS enables it by default, if libbpf supports it. If users enable it but
runs in an older version of libbpf, then the need_wakeup feature has no effect,
and a warning message is logged.
For virtual interface, it's better set use-need-wakeup=false, since
the virtual device's AF_XDP xmit is synchronous: the sendto syscall
enters kernel and process the TX packet on tx queue directly.
On Intel Xeon E5-2620 v3 2.4GHz system, performance of physical port
to physical port improves from 6.1Mpps to 7.3Mpps.

In case of failure of 'xsk_configure_all()', 'n_rxq' and 'xdpmode'
will remain in a new state. This will result in successful
reconfiguration (immediate return, because configuration is already
applied) if 'netdev_reconfigure()' will be called again.
Same issue was fixed previously for netdev-dpdk using 'dev->started'
flag in commit:
606f66507250 ("netdev-dpdk: Don't use PMD driver if not configured successfully")
Let's use similar approach with checking the 'dev->xsks' which only
exists if configuration was successful.
Additionally implemented 'netdev_afxdp_construct()' function to
explicitly initialize all the specific fields and request the
reconfiguration.

The patch introduces experimental AF_XDP support for OVS netdev.
AF_XDP, the Address Family of the eXpress Data Path, is a new Linux socket
type built upon the eBPF and XDP technology. It is aims to have comparable
performance to DPDK but cooperate better with existing kernel's networking
stack. An AF_XDP socket receives and sends packets from an eBPF/XDP program
attached to the netdev, by-passing a couple of Linux kernel's subsystems
As a result, AF_XDP socket shows much better performance than AF_PACKET
For more details about AF_XDP, please see linux kernel's
Documentation/networking/af_xdp.rst. Note that by default, this feature is
not compiled in.
