Jesper Dangaard Brouer 34b2021cc6 bpf: Add BPF-helper for MTU checking
This BPF-helper bpf_check_mtu() works for both XDP and TC-BPF programs.

The SKB object is complex and the skb->len value (accessible from
BPF-prog) also include the length of any extra GRO/GSO segments, but
without taking into account that these GRO/GSO segments get added
transport (L4) and network (L3) headers before being transmitted. Thus,
this BPF-helper is created such that the BPF-programmer don't need to
handle these details in the BPF-prog.

The API is designed to help the BPF-programmer, that want to do packet
context size changes, which involves other helpers. These other helpers
usually does a delta size adjustment. This helper also support a delta
size (len_diff), which allow BPF-programmer to reuse arguments needed by
these other helpers, and perform the MTU check prior to doing any actual
size adjustment of the packet context.

It is on purpose, that we allow the len adjustment to become a negative
result, that will pass the MTU check. This might seem weird, but it's not
this helpers responsibility to "catch" wrong len_diff adjustments. Other
helpers will take care of these checks, if BPF-programmer chooses to do
actual size adjustment.

V14:
 - Improve man-page desc of len_diff.

V13:
 - Enforce flag BPF_MTU_CHK_SEGS cannot use len_diff.

V12:
 - Simplify segment check that calls skb_gso_validate_network_len.
 - Helpers should return long

V9:
- Use dev->hard_header_len (instead of ETH_HLEN)
- Annotate with unlikely req from Daniel
- Fix logic error using skb_gso_validate_network_len from Daniel

V6:
- Took John's advice and dropped BPF_MTU_CHK_RELAX
- Returned MTU is kept at L3-level (like fib_lookup)

V4: Lot of changes
 - ifindex 0 now use current netdev for MTU lookup
 - rename helper from bpf_mtu_check to bpf_check_mtu
 - fix bug for GSO pkt length (as skb->len is total len)
 - remove __bpf_len_adj_positive, simply allow negative len adj

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.
