4a7ab326dc ofproto-dpif-xlate: Adjust generated mask for fragments.
It's possible to install an OpenFlow flow that matches on udp source and
destination ports without matching on fragments.  If the subtable where
such flow stays is visited during translation of a later fragment, the
generated mask will have incorrect prerequisited for the datapath and it
would be revalidated away at the first chance.

This commit fixes it by adjusting the mask for later fragments after
translation.

Other prerequisites of the mask are also prerequisites in OpenFlow, but
not the ip fragment bit, that's why we need a special case here.

For completeness, this commits also fixes a related problem in bfd,
where we check the udp destination port without checking if the frame is
an ip fragment.  It's not really necessary to address this separately,
given the adjustment that we perform.

ee89ea7b47 json: Move from lib to include/openvswitch.
To easily allow both in- and out-of-tree building of the Python
wrapper for the OVS JSON parser (e.g. w/ pip), move json.h to
include/openvswitch. This also requires moving lib/{hmap,shash}.h.

Both hmap.h and shash.h were #include-ing "util.h" even though the
headers themselves did not use anything from there, but rather from
include/openvswitch/util.h. Fixing that required including util.h
in several C files mostly due to OVS_NOT_REACHED and things like
xmalloc.

2eb791426a bfd: Allow setting OAM bit when encapsulated in tunnel.
Some tunnel protocols, such as Geneve, have a bit in the tunnel
header to indicate that it is an OAM packet. This means that the
packet should be processed as a tunnel control frame and not be
passed onto connected links.

When BFD is used inside of a tunnel it is often used in this control
capacity, so this adds an option to enable marking the outer header
when the output port is a tunnel that supports the OAM concept. It is
also possible to use tunnels as point-to-point links that are simply
carrying BFD as payload, so this is not always turned on.

Conceptually, this may also apply to other types of packets locally
generated by the switch, most obviously CFM. However, BFD seems to
be most commonly used for this type of tunnel monitoring application
so this only adds the option to BFD for the time being to avoid
unnecessarily adding configuration knobs that might never get used.

922fed065e vlog: Make the most common module reference more direct.
Most vlog calls are for the log module owned by the translation unit being
compiled, but this module was referenced indirectly through a pointer
variable.  That seems silly, so this commit changes the code so that the
local vlog module is referred to directly, as &this_module.

We could get rid of the global variables for vlog modules entirely, but
I like getting linker errors when there's a duplicate module name.

e769509208 Use ip_parse() and ipv6_parse() and variants in more places.
This saves some code and improves clarity, in my opinion.

Some of these changes just change an inet_pton() call into a similar
ip_parse() or ipv6_parse() call.  In those cases the benefit is better
type safety, since inet_pton()'s output parameter is type "void *".

2979b9158b bfd: always export remote_state and remote_diagnostic to OVSDB
RFC 5880 specified bfd.RemoteSessionState as one of the state
variables.  In OVS implementation, this value is exported to OVSDB's
BFD status column of the interface table, as one of the map elements,
with the key of 'remote_state'.

It can be surprising when the 'remote_state' map element disappears
when BFD is in the 'DOWN' state, but otherwise always exported.
Change to always exporting it, to make it more predictable for
applications that monitors the BFD status column.

While at it, make the same change to 'remote_diagnostic', so that it
is also always exported to OVSDB for consistency.

74ff3298c8 userspace: Define and use struct eth_addr.
Define struct eth_addr and use it instead of a uint8_t array for all
ethernet addresses in OVS userspace.  The struct is always the right
size, and it can be assigned without an explicit memcpy, which makes
code more readable.

"struct eth_addr" is a good type name for this as many utility
functions are already named accordingly.

struct eth_addr can be accessed as bytes as well as ovs_be16's, which
makes the struct 16-bit aligned.  All use seems to be 16-bit aligned,
so some algorithms on the ethernet addresses can be made a bit more
efficient making use of this fact.

As the struct fits into a register (in 64-bit systems) we pass it by
value when possible.

This patch also changes the few uses of Linux specific ETH_ALEN to
OVS's own ETH_ADDR_LEN, and removes the OFP_ETH_ALEN, as it is no
longer needed.

This work stemmed from a desire to make all struct flow members
assignable for unrelated exploration purposes.  However, I think this
might be a nice code readability improvement by itself.

34c88624ad bfd: Require bfd control packet received in forwarding_if_rx mode.
This commit adds a requirement that bfd session must receive at least
one bfd control packet every 100 * bfd->cfg_min_rx amount of time in
forwarding_if_rx mode.  Otherwise, even if the data packets are received
on the monitored interface, the bfd->forwarding is still false.

Since the datapath flow is not purged when the userspace Open Vswitch
crashes, data packet can still be forwarded through the tunnel and
fool the remote BFD session in forwarding_if_rx mode.  Thus, this commit
can prevent the remote BFD session from falsely declaring tunnel liveness
in this situation.

f23d157c05 ofproto-dpif: Don't poll ports when nothing changes

This patch makes the bfd, cfm, lacp and stp modules aware of the new

then use connectivity_seq to check if anything has changed before
looping through all ports in ofproto-dpif. In a test environment of 5000
internal ports and 50 tunnel ports with bfd, this reduces average CPU

7c457c3345 packets: Do not assume that IPv4, TCP, or ARP headers are 32-bit aligned.
Ethernet headers are 14 bytes long, so when the beginning of such a header
is 32-bit aligned, the following data is misaligned.  The usual trick to
fix that is to start the Ethernet header on an odd-numbered 16-bit
boundary.  That trick works OK for Open vSwitch, but there are two
problems:

   - OVS doesn't use that trick everywhere.  Maybe it should, but it's
     difficult to make sure that it does consistently because the CPUs
     most commonly used with OVS don't care about misalignment, so we
     only find problems when porting.

   - Some protocols (GRE, VXLAN) don't use that trick, so in such a case
     one can properly align the inner or outer L3/L4/L7 but not both.  (OVS
     userspace doesn't directly deal with such protocols yet, so this is
     just future-proofing.)

   - OpenFlow uses the alignment trick in a few places but not all of them.

This commit starts the adoption of what I hope will be a more robust way
to avoid misalignment problems and the resulting bus errors on RISC
architectures.  Instead of trying to ensure that 32-bit quantities are
always aligned, we always read them as if they were misaligned.  To ensure
that they are read this way, we change their types from 32-bit types to
pairs of 16-bit types.  (I don't know of any protocols that offset the
next header by an odd number of bytes, so a 16-bit alignment assumption
seems OK.)

The same would be necessary for 64-bit types in protocol headers, but we
don't yet have any protocol definitions with 64-bit types.

IPv6 protocol headers need the same treatment, but for those we rely on
structs provided by system headers, so I'll leave them for an upcoming
patch.

01d18a3aff bfd: Implement forwarding_if_rx.
This commit adds a new boolean option "forwarding_if_rx" to bfd.

When forwarding_if_rx is true the interface will be considered
capable of packet I/O as long as there is packet received at
interface.  This is important in that when link becomes temporarily
conjested, consecutive BFD control packets can be lost.  And the
forwarding_if_rx can prevent link failover by detecting non-control
packets received at interface.

5675cb4cbd ovs-atomic: atomic_load() must take a non-const argument.
C11 says that atomic_load() requires a non-const argument, and Clang
enforces that.  This fixes warnings with FreeBSD <stdatomic.h> that uses
the Clang extensions.

c1c4e8c769 bfd: Implement BFD decay.
When there is no incoming data traffic at the interface for a period,
BFD decay allows the bfd session to increase the min_rx. This is
helpful in that some interfaces may usually be idle for a long time.
And cpu consumption can be reduced by processing fewer bfd control
packets.

2a833280b4 bfd: Increase configuration efficiency.
Currently, when there are multiple bfd configuration changes,
the bfd_poll() will only update one change at a time with the
other side. This commit moves the call to bfd_poll() at the
end of configuration processing function, so that bfd_poll()
will update all configuration changes together.
