cdf3e274cf macvlan: unify macvlan_pcpu_stats and vlan_pcpu_stats
They are same, so unify them as one; since macvlan is a kind of vlan,
vlan_pcpu_stats should be a proper name for vlan and macvlan.

be9eac4827 macvlan: introduce macvlan_dev_real_dev() helper function
Introduce helper function macvlan_dev_real_dev which returns the
underlying device of a macvlan device, similar to vlan_dev_real_dev()
for 802.1q VLAN devices.

v2: IFF_MACVLAN flag and equivalent of is_macvlan_dev() were
introduced in the meantime

v3: do BUG() if compiled without macvlan support

a6cc0cfa72 net: Add layer 2 hardware acceleration operations for macvlan devices
Add a operations structure that allows a network interface to export
the fact that it supports package forwarding in hardware between
physical interfaces and other mac layer devices assigned to it (such
as macvlans). This operaions structure can be used by virtual mac
devices to bypass software switching so that forwarding can be done
in hardware more efficiently.

2be5c76794 macvtap: Let TUNSETOFFLOAD actually controll offload features.
When the user issues TUNSETOFFLOAD ioctl, macvtap does not do
anything other then to verify arguments.  This patch adds
functionality to allow users to actually control offload features.
NETIF_F_GSO and NETIF_F_GRO are always on, but the rest of the
features can be controlled.

815f236d62 macvtap: add TUNSETQUEUE ioctl
This patch adds TUNSETQUEUE ioctl to let userspace can temporarily disable or
enable a queue of macvtap. This is used to be compatible at API layer of tuntap
to simplify the userspace to manage the queues. This is done through introducing
a linked list to track all taps while using vlan->taps array to only track
active taps.

df8ef8f3aa macvlan: add FDB bridge ops and macvlan flags
This adds FDB bridge ops to the macvlan device passthru mode.
Additionally a flags field was added and a NOPROMISC bit to
allow users to use passthru mode without the driver calling
dev_set_promiscuity(). The flags field is a u16 placed in a
4 byte hole (consuming 2 bytes) of the macvlan_dev struct.

We want to do this so that the macvlan driver or stack
above the macvlan driver does not have to process every
packet. For the use case where we know all the MAC addresses
of the endstations above us this works well.

This patch is a result of Roopa Prabhu's work. Follow up
patches are needed for VEPA and VEB macvlan modes.

v2: Change from distinct nopromisc mode to a flags field to
    configure this. This avoids the tendency to add a new
    mode every time we need some slightly different behavior.
v3: fix error in dev_set_promiscuity and add change and get
    link attributes for flags.

e09eff7fc1 macvtap: Fix the minor device number allocation
On systems that create and delete lots of dynamic devices the
31bit linux ifindex fails to fit in the 16bit macvtap minor,
resulting in unusable macvtap devices.  I have systems running
automated tests that that hit this condition in just a few days.

Use a linux idr allocator to track which mavtap minor numbers
are available and and to track the association between macvtap
minor numbers and macvtap network devices.

Remove the unnecessary unneccessary check to see if the network
device we have found is indeed a macvtap device.  With macvtap
specific data structures it is impossible to find any other
kind of networking device.

Increase the macvtap minor range from 65536 to the full 20 bits
that is supported by linux device numbers.  It doesn't solve the
original problem but there is no penalty for a larger minor
device range.

8ffab51b3d macvlan: lockless tx path
macvlan is a stacked device, like tunnels. We should use the lockless
mechanism we are using in tunnels and loopback.

This patch completely removes locking in TX path.

tx stat counters are added into existing percpu stat structure, renamed
from rx_stats to pcpu_stats.

Note : this reverts commit 2c11455321 (macvlan: add multiqueue
capability)

Note : rx_errors converted to a 32bit counter, like tx_dropped, since
they dont need 64bit range.

8a35747a5d macvtap: Limit packet queue length
Mark Wagner reported OOM symptoms when sending UDP traffic over
a macvtap link to a kvm receiver.

This appears to be caused by the fact that macvtap packet queues
are unlimited in length.  This means that if the receiver can't
keep up with the rate of flow, then we will hit OOM. Of course
it gets worse if the OOM killer then decides to kill the receiver.

This patch imposes a cap on the packet queue length, in the same
way as the tuntap driver, using the device TX queue length.

Please note that macvtap currently has no way of giving congestion
notification, that means the software device TX queue cannot be
used and packets will always be dropped once the macvtap driver
queue fills up.

This shouldn't be a great problem for the scenario where macvtap
is used to feed a kvm receiver, as the traffic is most likely
external in origin so congestion notification can't be applied
anyway.

Of course, if anybody decides to complain about guest-to-guest
UDP packet loss down the track, then we may have to revisit this.

Incidentally, this patch also fixes a real memory leak when
macvtap_get_queue fails.

Chris Wright noticed that for this patch to work, we need a
non-zero TX queue length.  This patch includes his work to change
the default macvtap TX queue length to 500.

ab95bfe01f net: replace hooks in __netif_receive_skb V5
What this patch does is it removes two receive frame hooks (for bridge and for
macvlan) from __netif_receive_skb. These are replaced them with a single
hook for both. It only supports one hook per device because it makes no
sense to do bridging and macvlan on the same device.

Then a network driver (of virtual netdev like macvlan or bridge) can register
an rx_handler for needed net device.

20d29d7a91 net: macvtap driver
In order to use macvlan with qemu and other tools that require
a tap file descriptor, the macvtap driver adds a small backend
with a character device with the same interface as the tun
driver, with a minimum set of features.

Macvtap interfaces are created in the same way as macvlan
interfaces using ip link, but the netif is just used as a
handle for configuration and accounting, while the data
goes through the chardev. Each macvtap interface has its
own character device, simplifying permission management
significantly over the generic tun/tap driver.
