Commit da546e0 (dpif: Allow execute to modify the packet.) introduced
a bug by subtracting the zero-value ofpbuf size by "sizeof(struct
nlattr)" and assigning the result back to the ofpbuf size. This bug
causes the ovs-assert failure in facet_push_stats().
This commit fixes the bug by assigning the right value to the ofpbuf
size.

Allowing the packet to be modified by execution allows less data
copying for userspace action execution. Some users of the
dpif_execute already expect that the packet may be modified. This
patch makes this behavior uniform and makes the userspace datapath and
the execution helpers modify the packet as it is being executed.
Userspace action now steals the packet if given permission, as the
packet is normally not needed after it. The only exception is the
sample action, and this is accounted for my keeping track of any
actions that could be following the userspace action.
The packet in dpif_upcall is changed from a pointer to a struct,
allowing the packet to be honest about it's headroom. After this
change the packet can safely be pushed on over the precarious 4 byte
limit earlier allowed by the netlink data preceding the packet.

When ovs-vswitchd deletes a port with dpif_linux_port_del(), that function
uses del_channel() to delete the corresponding channel, including closing
its Netlink socket fd. However, if the vport gets removed by some other
process (e.g. "ip link delete" for veths) then this function never gets
called and thus the channel never gets deleted.
This commit fixes the problem by resynchronizing channels with the
datapath whenever a vport gets deleted.

Until now, the code in dpif_linux_recv_set() has assumed it is starting
from a clean slate with no channels at all. This commit generalizes it to
compare the existing set of channels against the ones that should exist
given the vports that the kernel has, adding any new ones that are missing
and removing any that should not exist. A followup commit will make good
use of this functionality.

We've seen a number of deadlocks in the tree since thread safety was
introduced. So far, all of these are self-deadlocks, that is, a single
thread acquiring a lock and then attempting to re-acquire the same lock
recursively. When this has happened, the process simply hung, and it was
somewhat difficult to find the cause.
POSIX "error-checking" mutexes check for this specific problem (and
others). This commit switches from other types of mutexes to
error-checking mutexes everywhere that we can, that is, everywhere that
we're not using recursive mutexes. This ought to help find problems more
quickly in the future.
There might be performance advantages to other kinds of mutexes in some
cases. However, the existing mutex type choices were just guesses, so I'd
rather go for easy detection of errors until we know that other mutex
types actually perform better in specific cases. Also, I did a quick
microbenchmark of glibc mutex types on my host and found that the
error checking mutexes weren't any slower than the other types, at least
when the mutex is uncontended.

Bug #15078
LISP is an experimental layer 3 tunneling protocol, described in RFC
6830. This patch adds support for LISP tunneling. Since LISP
encapsulated packets do not carry an Ethernet header, it is removed
before encapsulation, and added with hardcoded source and destination
MAC addresses after decapsulation. The harcoded MAC chosen for this
purpose is the locally administered address 02:00:00:00:00:00. Flow
actions can be used to rewrite this MAC for correct reception. As such,
this patch is intended to be used for static network configurations, or
with a LISP capable controller.

Until now, the optional OVS_USERSPACE_ATTR_USERDATA attribute had to be
exactly 64 bits long, if it was present. However, 64 bits is not enough
space to associate as much information with a flow as would be convenient
for some userspace features now under development. This commit generalizes
the attribute, allowing it to be any length.
This generalization is backward-compatible: if userspace only uses 64-bit
attributes, then it will not see any change in behavior.

Signed-off-by: Ethan Jackson <ethan@nicira.com>
With this patch, ovs-vswitchd uses flow based tunneling
exclusively. I.E. each kind of tunnel shares a single tunnel
backer in the datapath. Tunnel headers are set by userspace using
the ipv4_tunnel datapath action. And, the configuration of
individual tunnels is now a userspace responsibility, so
netdev-vport no longer marshals and unmarshals Netlink attributes
for tunnel configuration, instead only storing the configuration
internally. There are still some significant pieces of work to do,
but the basic building blocks are there to begin testing.

Userspace-kernel communication is a possible bottleneck when OVS is
receiving a large number of flow set up requests. To help prevent a bad
actor from consuming too much of this resource, we introduced channels
to segegrate traffic. Previously, we created 17 channels and
round-robin assigned ports to one of 16 channels (the 17th was reserved
for use by the system). This meant if there were more than 16 ports,
sharing of channels would occur.
This commit creates a new channel for each port, so that there is no
more sharing and better isolation. The special system port uses the
"ovs-system"'s channel (port 0), since it is not heavily loaded.
This also fixes an issue introduced in commit acf60855 (ofproto-dpif:
Use a single underlying datapath across multiple bridges.) where ports
that were added at run-time were given the special system channel.

The current code has a simple mapping between datapath and OpenFlow port
numbers (the port numbers were the same other than OFPP_LOCAL which maps
to datapath port 0). Since the translation was know at compile time,
this allowed different layers to easily translate between the two, so
the translation often occurred late.
A future commit will break this simple mapping, so this commit draws a
line between where datapath and OpenFlow port numbers are used. The
ofproto-dpif layer will be responsible for the translations. Callers
above will use OpenFlow port numbers. Providers below will use
datapath port numbers.
