vxlan driver should be using helpers to access nexthop struct
internals. Remove open check if whether nexthop is multipath in
favor of the existing nexthop_is_multipath helper. Add a new
helper, nexthop_has_v4, to cover the need to check has_v4 in
a group.

fdb nexthops are marked with a flag. For standalone nexthops, a flag was
added to the nh_info struct. For groups that flag was added to struct
nexthop when it should have been added to the group information. Fix
by removing the flag from the nexthop struct and adding a flag to nh_group
that mirrors nh_info and is really only a caching of the individual types.
Add a helper, nexthop_is_fdb, for use by the vxlan code and fixup the
internal code to use the flag from either nh_info or nh_group.

xdp_umem.c had overlapping changes between the 64-bit math fix
for the calculation of npgs and the removal of the zerocopy
memory type which got rid of the chunk_size_nohdr member.
The mlx5 Kconfig conflict is a case where we just take the
net-next copy of the Kconfig entry dependency as it takes on
the ESWITCH dependency by one level of indirection which is
what the 'net' conflicting change is trying to ensure.

Similar to the last path, need to fix fib_info_nh_uses_dev for
external nexthops to avoid referencing multiple nh_grp structs.
Move the device check in fib_info_nh_uses_dev to a helper and
create a nexthop version that is called if the fib_info uses an
external nexthop.

FIB lookups can return an entry that references an external nexthop.
While walking the nexthop struct we do not want to make multiple calls
into the nexthop code which can result in 2 different structs getting
accessed - one returning the number of paths the rest of the loop
seeing a different nh_grp struct. If the nexthop group shrunk, the
result is an attempt to access a fib_nh_common that does not exist for
the new nh_grp struct but did for the old one.
To fix that move the device evaluation code to a helper that can be
used for inline fib_nh path as well as external nexthops.
Update the existing check for fi->nh in fib_table_lookup to call a
new helper, nexthop_get_nhc_lookup, which walks the external nexthop
with a single rcu dereference.

I got too fancy consolidating checks on multipath type. The result
is that path lookups can access 2 different nh_grp structs as exposed
by Nik's torture tests. Expand nexthop_is_multipath within nexthop.h to
avoid multiple, nh_grp dereferences and make decisions based on the
consistent struct.
Only 2 places left using nexthop_is_multipath are within IPv6, both
only check that the nexthop is a multipath for a branching decision
which are acceptable.

We must avoid modifying published nexthop groups while they might be
in use, otherwise we might see NULL ptr dereferences. In order to do
that we allocate 2 nexthoup group structures upon nexthop creation
and swap between them when we have to delete an entry. The reason is
that we can't fail nexthop group removal, so we can't handle allocation
failure thus we move the extra allocation on creation where we can
safely fail and return ENOMEM.

This patch introduces ecmp nexthops and nexthop groups
for mac fdb entries. In subsequent patches this is used
by the vxlan driver fdb entries. The use case is
E-VPN multihoming [1,2,3] which requires bridged vxlan traffic
to be load balanced to remote switches (vteps) belonging to
the same multi-homed ethernet segment (This is analogous to
a multi-homed LAG but over vxlan).
Changes include new nexthop flag NHA_FDB for nexthops
referenced by fdb entries. These nexthops only have ip.
This patch includes appropriate checks to avoid routes
referencing such nexthops.
example:
$ip nexthop add id 12 via 172.16.1.2 fdb
$ip nexthop add id 13 via 172.16.1.3 fdb
$ip nexthop add id 102 group 12/13 fdb
$bridge fdb add 02:02:00:00:00:13 dev vxlan1000 nhid 101 self

The current codebase makes use of the zero-length array language
extension to the C90 standard, but the preferred mechanism to declare
variable-length types such as these ones is a flexible array member[1][2],
introduced in C99:
struct foo {
int stuff;
struct boo array[];
};
By making use of the mechanism above, we will get a compiler warning
in case the flexible array does not occur last in the structure, which
will help us prevent some kind of undefined behavior bugs from being
inadvertently introduced[3] to the codebase from now on.
Also, notice that, dynamic memory allocations won't be affected by
this change:
"Flexible array members have incomplete type, and so the sizeof operator
may not be applied. As a quirk of the original implementation of
zero-length arrays, sizeof evaluates to zero."[1]
This issue was found with the help of Coccinelle.

fib_dump_info incorrectly has nhs = 0 for blackhole nexthops, so it
believes the nexthop object is a multipath group (nhs != 1) and ends
up down the nexthop_mpath_fill_node() path which is wrong for a
blackhole.
The blackhole check in nexthop_num_path is leftover from early days
of the blackhole implementation which did not initialize the device.
In the end the design was simpler (fewer special case checks) to set
the device to loopback in nh_info, so the check in nexthop_num_path
should have been removed.

IPv6 has traditionally had a single fib6_nh per fib6_info. With
nexthops we can have multiple fib6_nh associated with a fib6_info.
Add a nexthop helper to invoke a callback for each fib6_nh in a
'struct nexthop'. If the callback returns non-0, the loop is
stopped and the return value passed to the caller.

Add struct nexthop and nh_list list_head to fib6_info. nh_list is the
fib6_info side of the nexthop <-> fib_info relationship. Since a fib6_info
referencing a nexthop object can not have 'sibling' entries (the old way
of doing multipath routes), the nh_list is a union with fib6_siblings.
Add f6i_list list_head to 'struct nexthop' to track fib6_info entries
using a nexthop instance. Update __remove_nexthop_fib to walk f6_list
and delete fib entries using the nexthop.
Add a few nexthop helpers for use when a nexthop is added to fib6_info:
- nexthop_fib6_nh - return first fib6_nh in a nexthop object
- fib6_info_nh_dev moved to nexthop.h and updated to use nexthop_fib6_nh
if the fib6_info references a nexthop object
- nexthop_path_fib6_result - similar to ipv4, select a path within a
multipath nexthop object. If the nexthop is a blackhole, set
fib6_result type to RTN_BLACKHOLE, and set the REJECT flag
Update the fib6_info references to check for nh and take a different path
as needed:
- rt6_qualify_for_ecmp - if a fib entry uses a nexthop object it can NOT
be coalesced with other fib entries into a multipath route
- rt6_duplicate_nexthop - use nexthop_cmp if either fib6_info references
a nexthop
- addrconf (host routes), RA's and info entries (anything configured via
ndisc) does not use nexthop objects
- fib6_info_destroy_rcu - put reference to nexthop object
- fib6_purge_rt - drop fib6_info from f6i_list
- fib6_select_path - update to use the new nexthop_path_fib6_result when
fib entry uses a nexthop object
- rt6_device_match - update to catch use of nexthop object as a blackhole
and set fib6_type and flags.
- ip6_route_info_create - don't add space for fib6_nh if fib entry is
going to reference a nexthop object, take a reference to nexthop object,
disallow use of source routing
- rt6_nlmsg_size - add space for RTA_NH_ID
- add rt6_fill_node_nexthop to add nexthop data on a dump
As with ipv4, most of the changes push existing code into the else branch
of whether the fib entry uses a nexthop object.
Update the nexthop code to walk f6i_list on a nexthop deleted to remove
fib entries referencing it.

Add 'struct nexthop' and nh_list list_head to fib_info. nh_list is the
fib_info side of the nexthop <-> fib_info relationship.
Add fi_list list_head to 'struct nexthop' to track fib_info entries
using a nexthop instance. Add __remove_nexthop_fib and add it to
__remove_nexthop to walk the new list_head and mark those fib entries
as dead when the nexthop is deleted.
Add a few nexthop helpers for use when a nexthop is added to fib_info:
- nexthop_cmp to determine if 2 nexthops are the same
- nexthop_path_fib_result to select a path for a multipath
'struct nexthop'
- nexthop_fib_nhc to select a specific fib_nh_common within a
multipath 'struct nexthop'
Update existing fib_info_nhc to use nexthop_fib_nhc if a fib_info uses
a 'struct nexthop', and mark fib_info_nh as only used for the non-nexthop
case.
Update the fib_info functions to check for fi->nh and take a different
path as needed:
- free_fib_info_rcu - put the nexthop object reference
- fib_release_info - remove the fib_info from the nexthop's fi_list
- nh_comp - use nexthop_cmp when either fib_info references a nexthop
object
- fib_info_hashfn - use the nexthop id for the hashing vs the oif of
each fib_nh in a fib_info
- fib_nlmsg_size - add space for the RTA_NH_ID attribute
- fib_create_info - verify nexthop reference can be taken, verify
nexthop spec is valid for fib entry, and add fib_info to fi_list for
a nexthop
- fib_select_multipath - use the new nexthop_path_fib_result to select a
path when nexthop objects are used
- fib_table_lookup - if the 'struct nexthop' is a blackhole nexthop, treat
it the same as a fib entry using 'blackhole'
The bulk of the changes are in fib_semantics.c and most of that is
moving the existing change_nexthops into an else branch.

Use helpers to access fib_nh and fib_nhs fields of a fib_info. Drop the
fib_dev macro which is an alias for the first nexthop. Replacements:
fi->fib_dev --> fib_info_nh(fi, 0)->fib_nh_dev
fi->fib_nh --> fib_info_nh(fi, 0)
fi->fib_nh[i] --> fib_info_nh(fi, i)
fi->fib_nhs --> fib_info_num_path(fi)
where fib_info_nh(fi, i) returns fi->fib_nh[nhsel] and fib_info_num_path
returns fi->fib_nhs.
Move the existing fib_info_nhc to nexthop.h and define the new ones
there. A later patch adds a check if a fib_info uses a nexthop object,
and defining the helpers in nexthop.h avoid circular header
dependencies.
After this all remaining open coded references to fi->fib_nhs and
fi->fib_nh are in:
- fib_create_info and helpers used to lookup an existing fib_info
entry, and
- the netdev event functions fib_sync_down_dev and fib_sync_up.
The latter two will not be reused for nexthops, and the fib_create_info
will be updated to handle a nexthop in a fib_info.

Allow the creation of nexthop groups which reference other nexthop
objects to create multipath routes:
+--------------+
+------------+ +--------------+ |
| nh nh_grp --->| nh_grp_entry |-+
+------------+ +---------|----+
^ | | +------------+
+----------------+ +--->| nh, weight |
nh_parent +------------+
A group entry points to a nexthop with a weight for that hop within the
group. The nexthop has a list_head, grp_list, for tracking which groups
it is a member of and the group entry has a reference back to the parent.
The grp_list is used when a nexthop is deleted - to efficiently remove
it from groups using it.
If a nexthop group spec is given, no other attributes can be set. Each
nexthop id in a group spec must already exist.
Similar to single nexthops, the specification of a nexthop group can be
updated so that data is managed with rcu locking.
Add path selection function to account for multiple paths and add
ipv{4,6}_good_nh helpers to know that if a neighbor entry exists it is
in a good state.
Update NETDEV event handling to rebalance multipath nexthop groups if
a nexthop is deleted due to a link event (down or unregister).
When a nexthop is removed any groups using it are updated. Groups using a
nexthop a tracked via a grp_list.
Nexthop dumps can be limited to groups only by adding NHA_GROUPS to the
request.

Barebones start point for nexthops. Implementation for RTM commands,
notifications, management of rbtree for holding nexthops by id, and
kernel side data structures for nexthops and nexthop config.
Nexthops are maintained in an rbtree sorted by id. Similar to routes,
nexthops are configured per namespace using netns_nexthop struct added
to struct net.
Nexthop notifications are sent when a nexthop is added or deleted,
but NOT if the delete is due to a device event or network namespace
teardown (which also involves device events). Applications are
expected to use the device down event to flush nexthops and any
routes used by the nexthops.

Many source files in the tree are missing licensing information, which
makes it harder for compliance tools to determine the correct license.
By default all files without license information are under the default
license of the kernel, which is GPL version 2.
Update the files which contain no license information with the 'GPL-2.0'
SPDX license identifier. The SPDX identifier is a legally binding
shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text.
This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart and
Philippe Ombredanne.
How this work was done:
Patches were generated and checked against linux-4.14-rc6 for a subset of
the use cases:
- file had no licensing information it it.
- file was a */uapi/* one with no licensing information in it,
- file was a */uapi/* one with existing licensing information,
Further patches will be generated in subsequent months to fix up cases
where non-standard license headers were used, and references to license
had to be inferred by heuristics based on keywords.
The analysis to determine which SPDX License Identifier to be applied to
a file was done in a spreadsheet of side by side results from of the
output of two independent scanners (ScanCode & Windriver) producing SPDX
tag:value files created by Philippe Ombredanne. Philippe prepared the
base worksheet, and did an initial spot review of a few 1000 files.
The 4.13 kernel was the starting point of the analysis with 60,537 files
assessed. Kate Stewart did a file by file comparison of the scanner
results in the spreadsheet to determine which SPDX license identifier(s)
to be applied to the file. She confirmed any determination that was not
immediately clear with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.
Criteria used to select files for SPDX license identifier tagging was:
- Files considered eligible had to be source code files.
- Make and config files were included as candidates if they contained >5
lines of source
- File already had some variant of a license header in it (even if <5
lines).
All documentation files were explicitly excluded.
The following heuristics were used to determine which SPDX license
identifiers to apply.
- when both scanners couldn't find any license traces, file was
considered to have no license information in it, and the top level
COPYING file license applied.
For non */uapi/* files that summary was:
SPDX license identifier # files
---------------------------------------------------|-------
GPL-2.0 11139
and resulted in the first patch in this series.
If that file was a */uapi/* path one, it was "GPL-2.0 WITH
Linux-syscall-note" otherwise it was "GPL-2.0". Results of that was:
SPDX license identifier # files
---------------------------------------------------|-------
GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 930
and resulted in the second patch in this series.
- if a file had some form of licensing information in it, and was one
of the */uapi/* ones, it was denoted with the Linux-syscall-note if
any GPL family license was found in the file or had no licensing in
it (per prior point). Results summary:
SPDX license identifier # files
---------------------------------------------------|------
GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note 270
GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 169
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-2-Clause) 21
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 17
LGPL-2.1+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 15
GPL-1.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 14
((GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause) 5
LGPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note 4
LGPL-2.1 WITH Linux-syscall-note 3
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR MIT) 3
((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) AND MIT) 1
and that resulted in the third patch in this series.
- when the two scanners agreed on the detected license(s), that became
the concluded license(s).
- when there was disagreement between the two scanners (one detected a
license but the other didn't, or they both detected different
licenses) a manual inspection of the file occurred.
- In most cases a manual inspection of the information in the file
resulted in a clear resolution of the license that should apply (and
which scanner probably needed to revisit its heuristics).
- When it was not immediately clear, the license identifier was
confirmed with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.
- If there was any question as to the appropriate license identifier,
the file was flagged for further research and to be revisited later
in time.
In total, over 70 hours of logged manual review was done on the
spreadsheet to determine the SPDX license identifiers to apply to the
source files by Kate, Philippe, Thomas and, in some cases, confirmation
by lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.
Kate also obtained a third independent scan of the 4.13 code base from
FOSSology, and compared selected files where the other two scanners
disagreed against that SPDX file, to see if there was new insights. The
Windriver scanner is based on an older version of FOSSology in part, so
they are related.
Thomas did random spot checks in about 500 files from the spreadsheets
for the uapi headers and agreed with SPDX license identifier in the
files he inspected. For the non-uapi files Thomas did random spot checks
in about 15000 files.
In initial set of patches against 4.14-rc6, 3 files were found to have
copy/paste license identifier errors, and have been fixed to reflect the
correct identifier.
Additionally Philippe spent 10 hours this week doing a detailed manual
inspection and review of the 12,461 patched files from the initial patch
version early this week with:
- a full scancode scan run, collecting the matched texts, detected
license ids and scores
- reviewing anything where there was a license detected (about 500+
files) to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct
- reviewing anything where there was no detection but the patch license
was not GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note to ensure that the applied
SPDX license was correct
This produced a worksheet with 20 files needing minor correction. This
worksheet was then exported into 3 different .csv files for the
different types of files to be modified.
These .csv files were then reviewed by Greg. Thomas wrote a script to
parse the csv files and add the proper SPDX tag to the file, in the
format that the file expected. This script was further refined by Greg
based on the output to detect more types of files automatically and to
distinguish between header and source .c files (which need different
comment types.) Finally Greg ran the script using the .csv files to
generate the patches.

Introduces struct fib_config replacing the ugly struct kern_rta
prone to ordering issues. Avoids creating faked netlink messages
for auto generated routes or requests via ioctl.
A new interface net/nexthop.h is added to help navigate through
nexthop configuration arrays.
A new struct nl_info will be used to carry the necessary netlink
information to be used for notifications later on.
