In order to remove dependency on rtnl lock, extend tcf_block with 'cb_lock'
rwsem and use it to protect flow_block->cb_list and related counters from
concurrent modification. The lock is taken in read mode for read-only
traversal of cb_list in tc_setup_cb_call() and write mode in all other
cases. This approach ensures that:
- cb_list is not changed concurrently while filters is being offloaded on
block.
- block->nooffloaddevcnt is checked while holding the lock in read mode,
but is only changed by bind/unbind code when holding the cb_lock in write
mode to prevent concurrent modification.

This patch increases the codel count in the bulk dropper, but

Currently init call of all actions (except ipt) init their 'parm'

condition when some of the filter actions were initialized successfully
(and were assigned with idr action index that was written directly
into nla data), but then were deleted and retried (due to following
action module missing or classifier-initiated retry), in which case
action init code tries to insert action to idr with index that was
assigned on previous iteration. During retry the index can be reused
by another action that was inserted concurrently, which causes
unintended action sharing between filters.
To fix described race condition, save action idr index to temporary

For qdisc's that support TC filters and set TCQ_F_CAN_BYPASS,
notably fq_codel, it makes no sense to let packets bypass the TC
filters we setup in any scenario, otherwise our packets steering
policy could not be enforced.
This can be reproduced easily with the following script:
ip li add dev dummy0 type dummy
ifconfig dummy0 up
tc qd add dev dummy0 root fq_codel
tc filter add dev dummy0 parent 8001: protocol arp basic action mirred egress redirect dev lo
tc filter add dev dummy0 parent 8001: protocol ip basic action mirred egress redirect dev lo
ping -I dummy0 192.168.112.1
Without this patch, packets are sent directly to dummy0 without
hitting any of the filters. With this patch, packets are redirected
to loopback as expected.
This fix is not perfect, it only unsets the flag but does not set it back
because we have to save the information somewhere in the qdisc if we
really want that. Note, both fq_codel and sfq clear this flag in their
->bind_tcf() but this is clearly not sufficient when we don't use any
class ID.

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 \

idr_for_each_entry_ul() is buggy as it can't handle overflow
case correctly. When we have an ID == UINT_MAX, it becomes an

unsigned long has the same size with unsigned int.
There is no better way to fix this than casting it to a larger
integer, but we can't just 64 bit integer on 32 bit CPU. Instead
we could just use an additional integer to help us to detect this
overflow case, that is, adding a new parameter to this macro.

Currently, we are seeing non-critical packets being transmitted outside of
their timeslice. We can confirm that the packets are being dequeued at the
right time. So, the delay is induced in the hardware side. The most likely
reason is the hardware queues are starving the lower priority queues.
In order to improve the performance of taprio, we will be making use of the
txtime feature provided by the ETF qdisc. For all the packets which do not
have the SO_TXTIME option set, taprio will set the transmit timestamp (set
in skb->tstamp) in this mode. TAPrio Qdisc will ensure that the transmit
time for the packet is set to when the gate is open. If SO_TXTIME is set,
the TAPrio qdisc will validate whether the timestamp (in skb->tstamp)
occurs when the gate corresponding to skb's traffic class is open.
Following two parameters added to support this mode:
- flags: used to enable txtime-assist mode. Will also be used to enable
other modes (like hardware offloading) later.
- txtime-delay: This indicates the minimum time it will take for the packet
to hit the wire. This is useful in determining whether we can transmit
the packet in the remaining time if the gate corresponding to the packet is
currently open.
An example configuration for enabling txtime-assist:
tc qdisc replace dev eth0 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@0 1@0 \\
base-time 1558653424279842568 \\
sched-entry S 01 300000 \\
sched-entry S 02 300000 \\
sched-entry S 04 400000 \\
flags 0x1 \\
txtime-delay 40000 \\
clockid CLOCK_TAI
tc qdisc replace dev $IFACE parent 100:1 etf skip_sock_check \\
offload delta 200000 clockid CLOCK_TAI
Note that all the traffic classes are mapped to the same queue. This is
only possible in taprio when txtime-assist is enabled. Also, note that the
ETF Qdisc is enabled with offload mode set.
In this mode, if the packet's traffic class is open and the complete packet
can be transmitted, taprio will try to transmit the packet immediately.
This will be done by setting skb->tstamp to current_time + the time delta
indicated in the txtime-delay parameter. This parameter indicates the time
taken (in software) for packet to reach the network adapter.
If the packet cannot be transmitted in the current interval or if the
packet's traffic is not currently transmitting, the skb->tstamp is set to
the next available timestamp value. This is tracked in the next_launchtime
parameter in the struct sched_entry.
The behaviour w.r.t admin and oper schedules is not changed from what is
present in software mode.
The transmit time is already known in advance. So, we do not need the HR
timers to advance the schedule and wakeup the dequeue side of taprio. So,
HR timer won't be run when this mode is enabled.
