Tom Herbert 5ed20a68cd flow_dissector: Abstract out hash computation
Move the hash computation located in __skb_get_hash to be a separate
function which takes flow_keys as input. This will allow flow hash
computation in other contexts where we only have addresses and ports.

Govindarajulu Varadarajan e0f31d8498 flow_keys: Record IP layer protocol in skb_flow_dissect()
skb_flow_dissect() dissects only transport header type in ip_proto. It dose not
give any information about IPv4 or IPv6.

This patch adds new member, n_proto, to struct flow_keys. Which records the
IP layer type. i.e IPv4 or IPv6.

This can be used in netdev->ndo_rx_flow_steer driver function to dissect flow.

Adding new member to flow_keys increases the struct size by around 4 bytes.
This causes BUILD_BUG_ON(sizeof(qcb->data) < sz); to fail in
qdisc_cb_private_validate()

So increase data size by 4

Nikolay Aleksandrov 357afe9c46 flow_dissector: factor out the ports extraction in skb_flow_get_ports
Factor out the code that extracts the ports from skb_flow_dissect and
add a new function skb_flow_get_ports which can be re-used.

Joe Perches 4787342c39 flow.h/flow_keys.h: Remove extern from function prototypes
There are a mix of function prototypes with and without extern
in the kernel sources.  Standardize on not using extern for
function prototypes.

Function prototypes don't need to be written with extern.
extern is assumed by the compiler.  Its use is as unnecessary as
using auto to declare automatic/local variables in a block.

Daniel Borkmann 8ed781668d flow_keys: include thoff into flow_keys for later usage
In skb_flow_dissect(), we perform a dissection of a skbuff. Since we're
doing the work here anyway, also store thoff for a later usage, e.g. in
the BPF filter.

Thanks David !

Here is a small patch to use one 64bit load/store on x86_64 instead of
two 32bit load/stores.

[PATCH net-next] flow_dissector: use a 64bit load/store

gcc compiler is smart enough to use a single load/store if we
memcpy(dptr, sptr, 8) on x86_64, regardless of
CONFIG_CC_OPTIMIZE_FOR_SIZE

In IP header, daddr immediately follows saddr, this wont change in the
future. We only need to make sure our flow_keys (src,dst) fields wont
break the rule.

Eric Dumazet 0744dd00c1 net: introduce skb_flow_dissect()
We use at least two flow dissectors in network stack, with known
limitations and code duplication.

Introduce skb_flow_dissect() to factorize this, highly inspired from
existing dissector from __skb_get_rxhash()

Note : We extensively use skb_header_pointer(), this permits us to not
touch skb at all.
