[ Upstream commit 288864effe33885988d53faf7830b35cb9a84c7a ]

The tc action act_connmark was using shared stats and taking the per
action lock in the datapath. Improve it by using percpu stats and rcu.

perf before:
- 13.55% tcf_connmark_act
   - 81.18% _raw_spin_lock
       80.46% native_queued_spin_lock_slowpath

perf after:
- 2.85% tcf_connmark_act

tdc results:
1..15

ok 2 56a5 - Add valid connmark action with control pass

Commit 21c167aa0ba9 ("net/sched: act_ctinfo: use percpu stats")
missed that stats_dscp_set, stats_dscp_error and stats_cpmark_set
might be written (and read) locklessly.

Use atomic64_t for these three fields, I doubt act_ctinfo is used
heavily on big SMP hosts anyway.

[ Upstream commit 52cf89f78c01bf39973f3e70d366921d70faff7a ]

The software pedit action didn't get the same love as some of the
other actions and it's still using spinlocks and shared stats in the
datapath.
Transition the action to rcu and percpu stats as this improves the
action's performance dramatically on multiple cpu deployments.

<content type='text'>
[ Upstream commit 8b796475fd7882663a870456466a4fb315cc1bd6 ]

Currently pedit tries to ensure that the accessed skb offset
is writable via skb_unclone(). The action potentially allows
touching any skb bytes, so it may end-up modifying shared data.

The above causes some sporadic MPTCP self-test failures, due to
this code:

	tc -n $ns2 filter add dev ns2eth$i egress \
		protocol ip prio 1000 \
		handle 42 fw \
		action pedit munge offset 148 u8 invert \
		pipe csum tcp \
		index 100

The above modifies a data byte outside the skb head and the skb is
a cloned one, carrying a TCP output packet.

This change addresses the issue by keeping track of a rough
over-estimate highest skb offset accessed by the action and ensuring
such offset is really writable.

Note that this may cause performance regressions in some scenarios,
but hopefully pedit is not in the critical path.

<id>urn:sha1:9c5eee0afca09cbde6bd00f77876754aaa552970</id>
<content type='text'>
Currently vlan modification action checks existence of vlan priority by
comparing it to 0. Therefore it is impossible to modify existing vlan
tag to have priority 0.

For example, the following tc command will change the vlan id but will
not affect vlan priority:

tc filter add dev eth1 ingress matchall action vlan modify id 300 \
        priority 0 pipe mirred egress redirect dev eth2

The incoming packet on eth1:

ethertype 802.1Q (0x8100), vlan 200, p 4, ethertype IPv4

will be changed to:

ethertype 802.1Q (0x8100), vlan 300, p 4, ethertype IPv4

although the user has intended to have p == 0.

The fix is to add tcfv_push_prio_exists flag to struct tcf_vlan_params
and rely on it when deciding to set the priority.

Allow a policer action to enforce a rate-limit based on packets-per-second,
configurable using a packet-per-second rate and burst parameters.

e.g.
tc filter add dev tap1 parent ffff: u32 match \
        u32 0 0 police pkts_rate 3000 pkts_burst 1000

Testing was unable to uncover a performance impact of this change on
existing features.

Allow flow_offload API to configure packet-per-second policing using rate
and burst parameters.

Dummy implementations of tcf_police_rate_pkt_ps() and
tcf_police_burst_pkt() are supplied which return 0, the unconfigured state.
This is to facilitate splitting the offload, driver, and TC code portion of
this feature into separate patches with the aim of providing a logical flow
for review. And the implementation of these helpers will be filled out by a
follow-up patch.
