[ 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 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.

<title>netns: fix GFP flags in rtnl_net_notifyid()</title>

<id>d4e4fdf9e4a27c87edb79b1478955075be141f67</id>
<content type='text'>
In rtnl_net_notifyid(), we certainly can't pass a null GFP flag to
rtnl_notify(). A GFP_KERNEL flag would be fine in most circumstances,
but there are a few paths calling rtnl_net_notifyid() from atomic
context or from RCU critical sections. The later also precludes the use
of gfp_any() as it wouldn't detect the RCU case. Also, the nlmsg_new()
call is wrong too, as it uses GFP_KERNEL unconditionally.

Therefore, we need to pass the GFP flags as parameter and propagate it
through function calls until the proper flags can be determined.

In most cases, GFP_KERNEL is fine. The exceptions are:
  * openvswitch: ovs_vport_cmd_get() and ovs_vport_cmd_dump()
    indirectly call rtnl_net_notifyid() from RCU critical section,

  * rtnetlink: rtmsg_ifinfo_build_skb() already receives GFP flags as
    parameter.

Also, in ovs_vport_cmd_build_info(), let's change the GFP flags used
by nlmsg_new(). The function is allowed to sleep, so better make the
flags consistent with the ones used in the following
ovs_vport_cmd_fill_info() call.

Found by code inspection.

<title>net: openvswitch: Set OvS recirc_id from tc chain index</title>

Offloaded OvS datapath rules are translated one to one to tc rules,
for example the following simplified OvS rule:

recirc_id(0),in_port(dev1),eth_type(0x0800),ct_state(-trk) actions:ct(),recirc(2)

Will be translated to the following tc rule:

$ tc filter add dev dev1 ingress \
	    prio 1 chain 0 proto ip \
		flower tcp ct_state -trk \
		action ct pipe \
		action goto chain 2

Received packets will first travel though tc, and if they aren't stolen
by it, like in the above rule, they will continue to OvS datapath.
Since we already did some actions (action ct in this case) which might
modify the packets, and updated action stats, we would like to continue
the proccessing with the correct recirc_id in OvS (here recirc_id(2))
where we left off.

To support this, introduce a new skb extension for tc, which
will be used for translating tc chain to ovs recirc_id to
handle these miss cases. Last tc chain index will be set
by tc goto chain action and read by OvS datapath.

Some functions in the datapath code are factored out so that each
one has a stack frame smaller than 1024 bytes with gcc. However,
when compiling with clang, the functions are inlined more aggressively
and combined again so we get

net/openvswitch/datapath.c:1124:12: error: stack frame size of 1528 bytes in function 'ovs_flow_cmd_set' [-Werror,-Wframe-larger-than=]

Marking both get_flow_actions() and ovs_nla_init_match_and_action()
as 'noinline_for_stack' gives us the same behavior that we see with
gcc, and no warning. Note that this does not mean we actually use
less stack, as the functions call each other, and we still get
three copies of the large 'struct sw_flow_key' type on the stack.

The comment tells us that this was previously considered safe,
presumably since the netlink parsing functions are called with
a known backchain that does not also use a lot of stack space.

When a vport is deleted, the maximum headroom size would be changed.
If the vport which has the largest headroom is deleted,
the new max_headroom would be set.
But, if the new headroom size is equal to the old headroom size,
updating routine is unnecessary.
