Macvlan always turns on offload features that have sofware
fallback (NETIF_GSO_SOFTWARE). This allows much higher guest-guest
communications over macvtap.
However, macvtap does not turn on these features for vlan tagged traffic.
As a result, depending on the HW that mactap is configured on, the
performance of guest-guest communication over a vlan is very
inconsistent. If the HW supports TSO/UFO over vlans, then the
performance will be fine. If not, the the performance will suffer
greatly since the VM may continue using TSO/UFO, and will force the host
segment the traffic and possibly overlow the macvtap queue.
This patch adds the always on offloads to vlan_features. This
makes sure that any vlan tagged traffic between 2 guest will not
be segmented needlessly.

The idea for type_check in dev_get_nest_level() was to count the number
of nested devices of the same type (currently, only macvlan or vlan
devices).
This prevented the false positive lockdep warning on configurations such
as:
eth0 <--- macvlan0 <--- vlan0 <--- macvlan1
However, this doesn't prevent a warning on a configuration such as:
eth0 <--- macvlan0 <--- vlan0
eth1 <--- vlan1 <--- macvlan1
In this case, all the locks end up with a nesting subclass of 1, so
lockdep thinks that there is still a deadlock:
- in the first case we have (macvlan_netdev_addr_lock_key, 1) and then
take (vlan_netdev_xmit_lock_key, 1)
- in the second case, we have (vlan_netdev_xmit_lock_key, 1) and then
take (macvlan_netdev_addr_lock_key, 1)
By removing the linktype check in dev_get_nest_level() and always
incrementing the nesting depth, lockdep considers this configuration
valid.

Currently we always queue a multicast packet for further processing,
even if none of the macvlan devices are subscribed to the address.
This patch optimises this by adding a global multicast filter for
a macvlan_port.
Note that this patch doesn't handle the broadcast addresses of the
individual macvlan devices correctly, if they are not all identical
to vlan->lowerdev. However, this is already broken because there
is no mechanism in place to update the individual multicast filters
when you change the broadcast address.
If someone cares enough they should fix this by collecting all
broadcast addresses for a macvlan as we do for multicast and unicast.

Currently when a macvlan is being initialized and the lower device is
netif_carrier_ok(), the macvlan device doesn't run through
rfc2863_policy() and is left with UNKNOWN operstate. Fix it by adding an
unconditional linkwatch event for the new macvlan device. Similar fix is
already used by the 8021q device (see register_vlan_dev()). Also fix the
inconsistent state when the lower device has been down and its carrier
was changed (when a device is down NETDEV_CHANGE doesn't get generated).
The second issue can be seen f.e. when we have a macvlan on top of a 8021q
device which has been down and its real device has been changing carrier
states, after setting the 8021q device up, the macvlan device will have
the same carrier state as it was before even though the 8021q can now
have a different state.
Example for case 1:
4: eth2: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 qdisc pfifo_fast
state UP mode DEFAULT group default qlen 1000
$ ip l add l eth2 macvl0 type macvlan
$ ip l set macvl0 up
$ ip l sh macvl0
72: macvl0@eth2: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 qdisc
noqueue state UNKNOWN mode DEFAULT group default
link/ether f6:0b:54:0a:9d:a3 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff
Example for case 2 (order is important):
Prestate: eth2 UP/CARRIER, vlan1 down, vlan1-macvlan down
$ ip l set vlan1-macvlan up
$ ip l sh vlan1-macvlan
71: vlan1-macvlan@vlan1: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500
qdisc noqueue state UNKNOWN mode DEFAULT group default
link/ether 4a:b8:44:56:b9:b9 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff
[ eth2 loses CARRIER before vlan1 has been UP-ed ]
$ ip l sh eth2
4: eth2: <NO-CARRIER,BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP> mtu 1500 qdisc pfifo_fast
state DOWN mode DEFAULT group default qlen 1000
link/ether 52:54:00:bf:57:16 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff
$ ip l sh vlan1-macvlan
71: vlan1-macvlan@vlan1: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500
qdisc noqueue state UNKNOWN mode DEFAULT group default
link/ether 4a:b8:44:56:b9:b9 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff
$ ip l set vlan1 up
$ ip l sh vlan1
70: vlan1@eth2: <NO-CARRIER,BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP> mtu 1500 qdisc
noqueue state LOWERLAYERDOWN mode DEFAULT group default qlen 1000
link/ether 52:54:00:bf:57:16 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff
$ ip l sh vlan1-macvlan
71: vlan1-macvlan@vlan1: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500
qdisc noqueue state UNKNOWN mode DEFAULT group default
link/ether 4a:b8:44:56:b9:b9 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff
vlan1-macvlan is still UP, still has carrier and is still in the same
operstate as before. After the patch in case 1 macvl0 has state UP as it
should and in case 2 vlan1-macvlan has state LOWERLAYERDOWN again as it
should. Note that while the lower macvlan device is down their carrier
and thus operstate can go out of sync but that will be fixed once the
lower device goes up again.
This behaviour seems to have been present since beginning of git history.

The netif_rx() call on the fast path of macvlan_handle_frame() appears to
be there to ensure that we properly throttle incoming packets. However, it
would appear as though the proper throttling is already in place for all
possible ingress paths, and that the call is redundant. If packets are arriving
from the physical NIC, we've already throttled them by this point. Otherwise,
if they are coming via macvlan_queue_xmit(), it calls either
'dev_forward_skb()', which ends up calling netif_rx_internal(), or else in
the broadcast case, we are throttling via macvlan_broadcast_enqueue().

Testing xmit_more support with netperf and connected UDP sockets,
I found strange dst refcount false sharing.
Current handling of IFF_XMIT_DST_RELEASE is not optimal.
Dropping dst in validate_xmit_skb() is certainly too late in case
packet was queued by cpu X but dequeued by cpu Y
The logical point to take care of drop/force is in __dev_queue_xmit()
before even taking qdisc lock.
As Julian Anastasov pointed out, need for skb_dst() might come from some
packet schedulers or classifiers.
This patch adds new helper to cleanly express needs of various drivers
or qdiscs/classifiers.
Drivers that need skb_dst() in their ndo_start_xmit() should call
following helper in their setup instead of the prior :
dev->priv_flags &= ~IFF_XMIT_DST_RELEASE;
->
netif_keep_dst(dev);
Instead of using a single bit, we use two bits, one being
eventually rebuilt in bonding/team drivers.
The other one, is permanent and blocks IFF_XMIT_DST_RELEASE being
rebuilt in bonding/team. Eventually, we could add something
smarter later.

This patch adds a new mode of operation to macvlan, called "source".
It allows one to set a list of allowed mac address, which is used
to match against source mac address from received frames on underlying
interface.
This enables creating mac based VLAN associations, instead of standard
port or tag based. The feature is useful to deploy 802.1x mac based
behavior, where drivers of underlying interfaces doesn't allows that.
Configuration is done through the netlink interface using e.g.:
ip link add link eth0 name macvlan0 type macvlan mode source
ip link add link eth0 name macvlan1 type macvlan mode source
ip link set link dev macvlan0 type macvlan macaddr add 00:11:11:11:11:11
ip link set link dev macvlan0 type macvlan macaddr add 00:22:22:22:22:22
ip link set link dev macvlan0 type macvlan macaddr add 00:33:33:33:33:33
ip link set link dev macvlan1 type macvlan macaddr add 00:33:33:33:33:33
ip link set link dev macvlan1 type macvlan macaddr add 00:44:44:44:44:44
This allows clients with MAC addresses 00:11:11:11:11:11,
00:22:22:22:22:22 to be part of only VLAN associated with macvlan0
interface. Clients with MAC addresses 00:44:44:44:44:44 with only VLAN
associated with macvlan1 interface. And client with MAC address
00:33:33:33:33:33 to be associated with both VLANs.

Since commit 412ca1550c ("macvlan: Move broadcasts into a work queue"), the
driver uses tx_queue_len of the master device as the limit of packets enqueuing.
Problem is that virtual drivers have this value set to 0, thus all broadcast
packets were rejected.
Because tx_queue_len was arbitrarily chosen, I replace it with a static limit
of 1000 (also arbitrarily chosen).

Currently, macvlan code restricts multicast and unicast
filter setting only to passthru devices. As a result,
if a guest using macvtap wants to receive multicast
traffic, it has to set IFF_ALLMULTI or IFF_PROMISC.
This patch makes it possible to use the fdb interface
to add multicast addresses to the filter thus allowing
a guest to receive only targeted multicast traffic.

Macvlan devices do not initialize vlan_features. As a result,
any vlan devices configured on top of macvlans perform very poorly.
Initialize vlan_features based on the vlan features of the lower-level
device.

unregister_netdevice_many() API is error prone and we had too
many bugs because of dangling LIST_HEAD on stacks.
See commit f87e6f4793 ("net: dont leave active on stack LIST_HEAD")
In fact, instead of making sure no caller leaves an active list_head,
just force a list_del() in the callee. No one seems to need to access
the list after unregister_netdevice_many()

Bonding and team drivers generate specific events during failover
that trigger switch updates. When a macvlan device is configured
on top of bonding, we want switches to learn about the macvlan
devices as well. This patch adds a handler to macvlan driver to
propagate these events to all macvlan devices. We let the generic
inetdev event handler do the work.
This allows macvlan to operated correctly over active-backup
mode bond.

Add netpoll support to macvlan devices. Based on the netpoll support in the 802.1q vlan code.
Tested and macvlan could work well with netconsole.

The macvlan dev should always have the same mac address like lowerdev
when in the passthru mode, change the mac address alone will break the
work mechanism, so when the lowerdev or macvlan mac address changes,
we should propagate the changes to another dev.
v1->v2: Allow macvlan dev to change mac address for passthru mode and propagate to
lowerdev.
v2->v3: Don't set the mac address to the lower dev's unicast address for
passthru mode when mac address changes.
