[ Upstream commit fa4e0f8855fcba600e0be2575ee29c69166f74bd ]

the following script:

 # tc qdisc add dev eth0 clsact
 # tc filter add dev eth0 egress protocol ip matchall \
 &gt; action mpls push protocol mpls_uc label 0x355aa bos 1

causes corruption of all IP packets transmitted by eth0. On TC egress, we
can't rely on the value of skb-&gt;mac_len, because it's 0 and a MPLS 'push'
operation will result in an overwrite of the first 4 octets in the packet
L2 header (e.g. the Destination Address if eth0 is an Ethernet); the same
error pattern is present also in the MPLS 'pop' operation. Fix this error
in act_mpls data plane, computing 'mac_len' as the difference between the
network header and the mac header (when not at TC ingress), and use it in
MPLS 'push'/'pop' core functions.

v2: unbreak 'make htmldocs' because of missing documentation of 'mac_len'
    in skb_mpls_pop(), reported by kbuild test robot

<title>openvswitch: Clear the L4 portion of the key for "later" fragments.</title>

Only the first fragment in a datagram contains the L4 headers.  When the
Open vSwitch module parses a packet, it always sets the IP protocol
field in the key, but can only set the L4 fields on the first fragment.
The original behavior would not clear the L4 portion of the key, so
garbage values would be sent in the key for "later" fragments.  This
patch clears the L4 fields in that circumstance to prevent sending those
garbage values as part of the upcall.

When IP fragments are reassembled before being sent to conntrack, the
key from the last fragment is used.  Unless there are reordering
issues, the last fragment received will not contain the L4 ports, so the
key for the reassembled datagram won't contain them.  This patch updates
the key once we have a reassembled datagram.

The handle_fragments() function works on L3 headers so we pull the L3/L4
flow key update code from key_extract into a new function
'key_extract_l3l4'.  Then we add a another new function
ovs_flow_key_update_l3l4() and export it so that it is accessible by
handle_fragments() for conntrack packet reassembly.

<title>openvswitch: Fix conntrack cache with timeout</title>

<content type='text'>
This patch addresses a conntrack cache issue with timeout policy.
Currently, we do not check if the timeout extension is set properly in the
cached conntrack entry.  Thus, after packet recirculate from conntrack
action, the timeout policy is not applied properly.  This patch fixes the
aforementioned issue.

<title>ovs: datapath: hide clang frame-overflow warnings</title>

<id>260637903f47f20c5918bb5c1eea52b2a28ea863</id>
<content type='text'>
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.

There is a flow_stats structure defined in include/net/flow_offload.h
and a follow up patch adds #include &lt;net/flow_offload.h&gt; to
net/sch_generic.h.

This breaks compilation since OVS codebase includes net/sock.h which
pulls in linux/filter.h which includes net/sch_generic.h.

In file included from ./include/net/sch_generic.h:18:0,
                 from ./include/linux/filter.h:25,
                 from ./include/net/sock.h:59,
                 from ./include/linux/tcp.h:19,
                 from net/openvswitch/datapath.c:24

This definition takes precedence on OVS since it is placed in the
networking core, so rename flow_stats in OVS to sw_flow_stats since
this structure is contained in sw_flow.

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.

Open vSwitch allows the updating of an existing MPLS header on a packet.
In preparation for supporting similar functionality in TC, move this to a
common skb helper function.
