net: tun: track dropped skb via kfree_skb_reason()
The TUN can be used as vhost-net backend. E.g, the tun_net_xmit() is the interface to forward the skb from TUN to vhost-net/virtio-net. However, there are many "goto drop" in the TUN driver. Therefore, the kfree_skb_reason() is involved at each "goto drop" to help userspace ftrace/ebpf to track the reason for the loss of packets. The below reasons are introduced: - SKB_DROP_REASON_DEV_READY - SKB_DROP_REASON_NOMEM - SKB_DROP_REASON_HDR_TRUNC - SKB_DROP_REASON_TAP_FILTER - SKB_DROP_REASON_TAP_TXFILTER Cc: Joao Martins <joao.m.martins@oracle.com> Cc: Joe Jin <joe.jin@oracle.com> Signed-off-by: Dongli Zhang <dongli.zhang@oracle.com> Signed-off-by: David S.
