skb does not include enough information to find out receiving
sockets/services and netns/containers on packet drops. In theory
skb-&gt;dev tells about netns, but it can get cleared/reused, e.g. by TCP
stack for OOO packet lookup. Similarly, skb-&gt;sk often identifies a local
sender, and tells nothing about a receiver.

Allow passing an extra receiving socket to the tracepoint to improve
the visibility on receiving drops.

kfree_skb() includes the location, it makes sense
to add it to consume_skb() as well.

For the cases where 'reason' doesn't give any clue, it's still
nice to be able to track the kfree_skb caller location. %p doesn't
help much so let's use %pS which prints the symbol+offset.

<title>net: skb: export skb drop reaons to user by TRACE_DEFINE_ENUM</title>

<id>9cb252c4c1c53ae58bc565bab76e98133288f23a</id>

As Eric reported, the 'reason' field is not presented when trace the
kfree_skb event by perf:

$ perf record -e skb:kfree_skb -a sleep 10
$ perf script
  ip_defrag 14605 [021]   221.614303:   skb:kfree_skb:
  skbaddr=0xffff9d2851242700 protocol=34525 location=0xffffffffa39346b1
  reason:

The cause seems to be passing kernel address directly to TP_printk(),
which is not right. As the enum 'skb_drop_reason' is not exported to
user space through TRACE_DEFINE_ENUM(), perf can't get the drop reason
string from the 'reason' field, which is a number.

Therefore, we introduce the macro DEFINE_DROP_REASON(), which is used
to define the trace enum by TRACE_DEFINE_ENUM(). With the help of
DEFINE_DROP_REASON(), now we can remove the auto-generate that we
introduced in the commit ec43908dd556
("net: skb: use auto-generation to convert skb drop reason to string"),
and define the string array 'drop_reasons'.

Hmmmm...now we come back to the situation that have to maintain drop
reasons in both enum skb_drop_reason and DEFINE_DROP_REASON. But they
are both in dropreason.h, which makes it easier.

After this commit, now the format of kfree_skb is like this:

$ cat /tracing/events/skb/kfree_skb/format
name: kfree_skb
ID: 1524
format:
        field:unsigned short common_type;       offset:0;       size:2; signed:0;
        field:unsigned char common_flags;       offset:2;       size:1; signed:0;
        field:unsigned char common_preempt_count;       offset:3;       size:1; signed:0;

        field:enum skb_drop_reason reason;      offset:28;      size:4; signed:0;

print fmt: "skbaddr=%p protocol=%u location=%p reason: %s", REC-&gt;skbaddr, REC-&gt;protocol, REC-&gt;location, __print_symbolic(REC-&gt;reason, { 1, "NOT_SPECIFIED" }, { 2, "NO_SOCKET" } ......

It is annoying to add new skb drop reasons to 'enum skb_drop_reason'
and TRACE_SKB_DROP_REASON in trace/event/skb.h, and it's easy to forget
to add the new reasons we added to TRACE_SKB_DROP_REASON.

TRACE_SKB_DROP_REASON is used to convert drop reason of type number
to string. For now, the string we passed to user space is exactly the
same as the name in 'enum skb_drop_reason' with a 'SKB_DROP_REASON_'
prefix. Therefore, we can use 'auto-generation' to generate these
drop reasons to string at build time.

The new source 'dropreason_str.c' will be auto generated during build
time, which contains the string array
'const char * const drop_reasons[]'.
