Daniel Borkmann 2aad32613c Merge branch 'bpf-eth-get-headlen'
Stanislav Fomichev says:

====================
Currently, when eth_get_headlen calls flow dissector, it doesn't pass any
skb. Because we use passed skb to lookup associated networking namespace
to find whether we have a BPF program attached or not, we always use
C-based flow dissector in this case.

The goal of this patch series is to add new networking namespace argument
to the eth_get_headlen and make BPF flow dissector programs be able to
work in the skb-less case.

The series goes like this:
* use new kernel context (struct bpf_flow_dissector) for flow dissector
  programs; this makes it easy to distinguish between skb and no-skb
  case and supports calling BPF flow dissector on a chunk of raw data
* convert BPF_PROG_TEST_RUN to use raw data
* plumb network namespace into __skb_flow_dissect from all callers
* handle no-skb case in __skb_flow_dissect
* update eth_get_headlen to include net namespace argument and
  convert all existing users
* add selftest to make sure bpf_skb_load_bytes is not allowed in
  the no-skb mode
* extend test_progs to exercise skb-less flow dissection as well
* stop adjusting nhoff/thoff by ETH_HLEN in BPF_PROG_TEST_RUN

v6:
* more suggestions by Alexei:
  * eth_get_headlen now takes net dev, not net namespace
  * test skb-less case via tun eth_get_headlen
* fix return errors in bpf_flow_load
* don't adjust nhoff/thoff by ETH_HLEN

v5:
* API changes have been submitted via bpf/stable tree

v4:
* prohibit access to vlan fields as well (otherwise, inconsistent
  between skb/skb-less cases)
* drop extra unneeded check for skb->vlan_present in bpf_flow.c

v3:
* new kernel xdp_buff-like context per Alexei suggestion
* drop skb_net helper
* properly clamp flow_keys->nhoff

v2:
* moved temporary skb from stack into percpu (avoids memset of ~200 bytes
  per packet)
* tightened down access to __sk_buff fields from flow dissector programs to
  avoid touching shinfo (whitelist only relevant fields)
* addressed suggestions from Willem

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
