====================
net/sched: Introduce tc connection tracking

This patch series add connection tracking capabilities in tc sw datapath.
It does so via a new tc action, called act_ct, and new tc flower classifier matching
on conntrack state, mark and label.

Usage is as follows:
$ tc qdisc add dev ens1f0_0 ingress
$ tc qdisc add dev ens1f0_1 ingress

$ tc filter add dev ens1f0_0 ingress \
  prio 1 chain 0 proto ip \
  flower ip_proto tcp ct_state -trk \
  action ct zone 2 pipe \
  action goto chain 2
$ tc filter add dev ens1f0_0 ingress \
  prio 1 chain 2 proto ip \
  flower ct_state +trk+new \
  action ct zone 2 commit mark 0xbb nat src addr 5.5.5.7 pipe \
  action mirred egress redirect dev ens1f0_1
$ tc filter add dev ens1f0_0 ingress \
  prio 1 chain 2 proto ip \
  flower ct_zone 2 ct_mark 0xbb ct_state +trk+est \
  action ct nat pipe \
  action mirred egress redirect dev ens1f0_1

$ tc filter add dev ens1f0_1 ingress \
  prio 1 chain 0 proto ip \
  flower ip_proto tcp ct_state -trk \
  action ct zone 2 pipe \
  action goto chain 1
$ tc filter add dev ens1f0_1 ingress \
  prio 1 chain 1 proto ip \
  flower ct_zone 2 ct_mark 0xbb ct_state +trk+est \
  action ct nat pipe \
  action mirred egress redirect dev ens1f0_0

The pattern used in the design here closely resembles OvS, as the plan is to also offload
OvS conntrack rules to tc. OvS datapath rules uses it's recirculation mechanism to send
specific packets to conntrack, and return with the new conntrack state (ct_state) on some other recirc_id
to be matched again (we use goto chain for this).

This results in the following OvS datapath rules:

recirc_id(0),in_port(ens1f0_0),ct_state(-trk),... actions:ct(zone=2),recirc(2)
recirc_id(2),in_port(ens1f0_0),ct_state(+new+trk),ct_mark(0xbb),... actions:ct(commit,zone=2,nat(src=5.5.5.7),mark=0xbb),ens1f0_1
recirc_id(2),in_port(ens1f0_0),ct_state(+est+trk),ct_mark(0xbb),... actions:ct(zone=2,nat),ens1f0_1

recirc_id(1),in_port(ens1f0_1),ct_state(-trk),... actions:ct(zone=2),recirc(1)
recirc_id(1),in_port(ens1f0_1),ct_state(+est+trk),... actions:ct(zone=2,nat),ens1f0_0

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
