This structure is now only 4 bytes, so its more efficient
to cache a copy rather than its address.

No significant size difference in allmodconfig vmlinux.

With non-modular kernel that has all XFRM options enabled, this
series reduces vmlinux image size by ~11kb. All xfrm_mode
indirections are gone and all modes are built-in.

With allmodconfig kernel, the size increase is only 362 bytes,
even all the xfrm config options removed in this series are
modular.

These functions are small and we only have versions for tunnel
and transport mode for ipv4 and ipv6 respectively.

Just place the 'transport or tunnel' conditional in the protocol
specific function instead of using an indirection.

<title>xfrm: Reset secpath in xfrm failure</title>

<content type='text'>
In esp4_gro_receive() and esp6_gro_receive(), secpath can be allocated
without adding xfrm state to xvec. Then, sp-&gt;xvec[sp-&gt;len - 1] would
fail and result in dereferencing invalid pointer in esp4_gso_segment()
and esp6_gso_segment(). Reset secpath if xfrm function returns error.

It can only return 0 (success) or -ENOMEM.
Change return value to a pointer to secpath struct.

This avoids direct access to skb-&gt;sp:

err = secpath_set(skb);
if (!err) ..
skb-&gt;sp-&gt; ...

Becomes:
sp = secpath_set(skb)
if (!sp) ..
sp-&gt; ..

This reduces noise in followup patch which is going to remove skb-&gt;sp.

1) Extend the output_mark to also support the input direction
   and masking the mark values before applying to the skb.

2) Add a new lookup key for the upcomming xfrm interfaces.

3) Extend the xfrm lookups to match xfrm interface IDs.

4) Add virtual xfrm interfaces. The purpose of these interfaces
   is to overcome the design limitations that the existing
   VTI devices have.

  The main limitations that we see with the current VTI are the
  following:

  VTI interfaces are L3 tunnels with configurable endpoints.
  For xfrm, the tunnel endpoint are already determined by the SA.
  So the VTI tunnel endpoints must be either the same as on the
  SA or wildcards. In case VTI tunnel endpoints are same as on
  the SA, we get a one to one correlation between the SA and
  the tunnel. So each SA needs its own tunnel interface.

  On the other hand, we can have only one VTI tunnel with
  wildcard src/dst tunnel endpoints in the system because the
  lookup is based on the tunnel endpoints. The existing tunnel
  lookup won't work with multiple tunnels with wildcard
  tunnel endpoints. Some usecases require more than on
  VTI tunnel of this type, for example if somebody has multiple
  namespaces and every namespace requires such a VTI.

  VTI needs separate interfaces for IPv4 and IPv6 tunnels.
  So when routing to a VTI, we have to know to which address
  family this traffic class is going to be encapsulated.
  This is a lmitation because it makes routing more complex
  and it is not always possible to know what happens behind the
  VTI, e.g. when the VTI is move to some namespace.

  VTI works just with tunnel mode SAs. We need generic interfaces
  that ensures transfomation, regardless of the xfrm mode and
  the encapsulated address family.

  VTI is configured with a combination GRE keys and xfrm marks.
  With this we have to deal with some extra cases in the generic
  tunnel lookup because the GRE keys on the VTI are actually
  not GRE keys, the GRE keys were just reused for something else.
  All extensions to the VTI interfaces would require to add
  even more complexity to the generic tunnel lookup.

  So to overcome this, we developed xfrm interfaces with the
  following design goal:

  It should be possible to tunnel IPv4 and IPv6 through the same
  interface.

  No limitation on xfrm mode (tunnel, transport and beet).

  Should be a generic virtual interface that ensures IPsec
  transformation, no need to know what happens behind the
  interface.

  Interfaces should be configured with a new key that must match a
  new policy/SA lookup key.

  The lookup logic should stay in the xfrm codebase, no need to
  change or extend generic routing and tunnel lookups.

  Should be possible to use IPsec hardware offloads of the underlying
  interface.

5) Remove xfrm pcpu policy cache. This was added after the flowcache
   removal, but it turned out to make things even worse.
   From Florian Westphal.

6) Allow to update the set mark on SA updates.
   From Nathan Harold.

7) Convert some timestamps to time64_t.
   From Arnd Bergmann.

8) Don't check the offload_handle in xfrm code,
   it is an opaque data cookie for the driver.
   From Shannon Nelson.

9) Remove xfrmi interface ID from flowi. After this pach
   no generic code is touched anymore to do xfrm interface
   lookups. From Benedict Wong.

10) Allow to update the xfrm interface ID on SA updates.
    From Nathan Harold.

11) Don't pass zero to ERR_PTR() in xfrm_resolve_and_create_bundle.
    From YueHaibing.

12) Return more detailed errors on xfrm interface creation.
    From Benedict Wong.

13) Use PTR_ERR_OR_ZERO instead of IS_ERR + PTR_ERR.
    From the kbuild test robot.

The offload_handle should be an opaque data cookie for the driver
to use, much like the data cookie for a timer or alarm callback.
Thus, the XFRM stack should not be checking for non-zero, because
the driver might use that to store an array reference, which could
be zero, or some other zero but meaningful value.

We can remove the checks for non-zero because there are plenty
other attributes also being checked to see if there is an offload
in place for the SA in question.
