Kuniyuki Iwashima d5e4ddaeb6 bpf: Support socket migration by eBPF.
This patch introduces a new bpf_attach_type for BPF_PROG_TYPE_SK_REUSEPORT
to check if the attached eBPF program is capable of migrating sockets. When
the eBPF program is attached, we run it for socket migration if the
expected_attach_type is BPF_SK_REUSEPORT_SELECT_OR_MIGRATE or
net.ipv4.tcp_migrate_req is enabled.

Currently, the expected_attach_type is not enforced for the
BPF_PROG_TYPE_SK_REUSEPORT type of program. Thus, this commit follows the
earlier idea in the commit aac3fc320d ("bpf: Post-hooks for sys_bind") to
fix up the zero expected_attach_type in bpf_prog_load_fixup_attach_type().

Moreover, this patch adds a new field (migrating_sk) to sk_reuseport_md to
select a new listener based on the child socket. migrating_sk varies
depending on if it is migrating a request in the accept queue or during
3WHS.

  - accept_queue : sock (ESTABLISHED/SYN_RECV)
  - 3WHS         : request_sock (NEW_SYN_RECV)

In the eBPF program, we can select a new listener by
BPF_FUNC_sk_select_reuseport(). Also, we can cancel migration by returning
SK_DROP. This feature is useful when listeners have different settings at
the socket API level or when we want to free resources as soon as possible.

  - SK_PASS with selected_sk, select it as a new listener
  - SK_PASS with selected_sk NULL, fallbacks to the random selection
  - SK_DROP, cancel the migration.

There is a noteworthy point. We select a listening socket in three places,
but we do not have struct skb at closing a listener or retransmitting a
SYN+ACK. On the other hand, some helper functions do not expect skb is NULL
(e.g. skb_header_pointer() in BPF_FUNC_skb_load_bytes(), skb_tail_pointer()
in BPF_FUNC_skb_load_bytes_relative()). So we allocate an empty skb
temporarily before running the eBPF program.

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.
