[ Upstream commit 8a574f86652a4540a2433946ba826ccb87f398cc ]

If we can't build the flow del notification, we can simply delete
the flow, no need to crash the kernel. Still keep a WARN_ON to
preserve debuggability.

Note: the BUG_ON() predates the Fixes tag, but this change
can be applied only after the mentioned commit.

v1 -&gt; v2:
 - do not leak an skb on error

[ Upstream commit 8ffeb03fbba3b599690b361467bfd2373e8c450f ]

All the callers of ovs_flow_cmd_build_info() already deal with
error return code correctly, so we can handle the error condition
in a more gracefull way. Still dump a warning to preserve
debuggability.

[ Upstream commit 4e81c0b3fa93d07653e2415fa71656b080a112fd ]

When user-space sets the OVS_UFID_F_OMIT_* flags, and the relevant
flow has no UFID, we can exceed the computed size, as
ovs_nla_put_identifier() will always dump an OVS_FLOW_ATTR_KEY
attribute.
Take the above in account when computing the flow command message
size.

<title>openvswitch: fix skb_panic due to the incorrect actions attrlen</title>

[ Upstream commit 494bea39f3201776cdfddc232705f54a0bd210c4 ]

For sw_flow_actions, the actions_len only represents the kernel part's
size, and when we dump the actions to the userspace, we will do the
convertions, so it's true size may become bigger than the actions_len.

But unfortunately, for OVS_PACKET_ATTR_ACTIONS, we use the actions_len
to alloc the skbuff, so the user_skb's size may become insufficient and
oops will happen like this:
  skbuff: skb_over_panic: text:ffffffff8148fabf len:1749 put:157 head:
  ffff881300f39000 data:ffff881300f39000 tail:0x6d5 end:0x6c0 dev:&lt;NULL&gt;

Also we can find that the actions_len is much little than the orig_len:
  crash&gt; struct sw_flow_actions 0xffff8812f539d000
  struct sw_flow_actions {
    rcu = {
      next = 0xffff8812f5398800,
      func = 0xffffe3b00035db32
    },
    orig_len = 1384,
    actions_len = 592,
    actions = 0xffff8812f539d01c
  }

So as a quick fix, use the orig_len instead of the actions_len to alloc
the user_skb.

Last, this oops happened on our system running a relative old kernel, but
the same risk still exists on the mainline, since we use the wrong
actions_len from the beginning.

<title>openvswitch: Add packet len info to upcall.</title>

<content type='text'>
The commit f2a4d086ed4c ("openvswitch: Add packet truncation support.")
introduces packet truncation before sending to userspace upcall receiver.
This patch passes up the skb-&gt;len before truncation so that the upcall
receiver knows the original packet size. Potentially this will be used
by sFlow, where OVS translates sFlow config header=N to a sample action,
truncating packet to N byte in kernel datapath. Thus, only N bytes instead
of full-packet size is copied from kernel to userspace, saving the
kernel-to-userspace bandwidth.

The commit f2a4d086ed4c ("openvswitch: Add packet truncation support.")
introduces packet truncation before sending to userspace upcall receiver.
This patch passes up the skb-&gt;len before truncation so that the upcall
receiver knows the original packet size. Potentially this will be used
by sFlow, where OVS translates sFlow config header=N to a sample action,
truncating packet to N byte in kernel datapath. Thus, only N bytes instead
of full-packet size is copied from kernel to userspace, saving the
kernel-to-userspace bandwidth.

The patch adds a new OVS action, OVS_ACTION_ATTR_TRUNC, in order to
truncate packets. A 'max_len' is added for setting up the maximum
packet size, and a 'cutlen' field is to record the number of bytes
to trim the packet when the packet is outputting to a port, or when
the packet is sent to userspace.
