openvswitch: Wrap struct ovs_key_ipv4_tunnel in a new structure.

Currently, the flow information that is matched for tunnels and
the tunnel data passed around with packets is the same. However,
as additional information is added this is not necessarily desirable,
as in the case of pointers.

This adds a new structure for tunnel metadata which currently contains
only the existing struct. This change is purely internal to the kernel
since the current OVS_KEY_ATTR_IPV4_TUNNEL is simply a compressed version
of OVS_KEY_ATTR_TUNNEL that is translated at flow setup.

openvswitch: Eliminate memset() from flow_extract.

As new protocols are added, the size of the flow key tends to
increase although few protocols care about all of the fields. In
order to optimize this for hashing and matching, OVS uses a variable
length portion of the key. However, when fields are extracted from
the packet we must still zero out the entire key.

This is no longer necessary now that OVS implements masking. Any
fields (or holes in the structure) which are not part of a given
protocol will be by definition not part of the mask and zeroed out
during lookup. Furthermore, since masking already uses variable
length keys this zeroing operation automatically benefits as well.

In principle, the only thing that needs to be done at this point
is remove the memset() at the beginning of flow. However, some
fields assume that they are initialized to zero, which now must be
done explicitly. In addition, in the event of an error we must also
zero out corresponding fields to signal that there is no valid data
present. These increase the total amount of code but very little of
it is executed in non-error situations.

Removing the memset() reduces the profile of ovs_flow_extract()
from 0.64% to 0.56% when tested with large packets on a 10G link.

set of actions on that packet, with help of recirc action we can
process/modify the packet and recirculate it back in openvswitch
for another pass.

OVS hash action calculates 5-tupple hash and set hash in flow-key
hash. This can be used along with recirculation for distributing
packets among different ports for bond devices.
For example:
OVS bonding can use following actions:
Match on: bond flow; Action: hash, recirc(id)
Match on: recirc-id == id and hash lower bits == a;
Action: output port_bond_a

openvswitch: Compact sw_flow_key.

Minimize padding in sw_flow_key and move 'tp' top the main struct.
These changes simplify code when accessing the transport port numbers
and the tcp flags, and makes the sw_flow_key 8 bytes smaller on 64-bit
systems (128->120 bytes). These changes also make the keys for IPv4
packets to fit in one cache line.

There is a valid concern for safety of packing the struct
ovs_key_ipv4_tunnel, as it would be possible to take the address of
the tun_id member as a __be64 * which could result in unaligned access
in some systems. However:

- sw_flow_key itself is 64-bit aligned, so the tun_id within is
always
64-bit aligned.
- We never make arrays of ovs_key_ipv4_tunnel (which would force
every
second tun_key to be misaligned).
- We never take the address of the tun_id in to a __be64 *.
- Whereever we use struct ovs_key_ipv4_tunnel outside the
sw_flow_key,
it is in stack (on tunnel input functions), where compiler has full
control of the alignment.

openvswitch: Per NUMA node flow stats.

Keep kernel flow stats for each NUMA node rather than each (logical)
CPU. This avoids using the per-CPU allocator and removes most of the
kernel-side OVS locking overhead otherwise on the top of perf reports
and allows OVS to scale better with higher number of threads.

With 9 handlers and 4 revalidators netperf TCP_CRR test flow setup
rate doubles on a server with two hyper-threaded physical CPUs (16
logical cores each) compared to the current OVS master. Tested with
non-trivial flow table with a TCP port match rule forcing all new
connections with unique port numbers to OVS userspace. The IP
addresses are still wildcarded, so the kernel flows are not considered
as exact match 5-tuple flows. This type of flows can be expected to
appear in large numbers as the result of more effective wildcarding
made possible by improvements in OVS userspace flow classifier.

There is a small increase in kernel spinlock overhead due to the same
spinlock being shared between multiple cores of the same physical CPU,
but that is barely visible in the netperf TCP_CRR test performance
(maybe ~1% performance drop, hard to tell exactly due to variance in
the test results), when testing for kernel module throughput (with no
userspace activity, handful of kernel flows).

On flow setup, a single stats instance is allocated (for the NUMA node
0). As CPUs from multiple NUMA nodes start updating stats, new
NUMA-node specific stats instances are allocated. This allocation on
the packet processing code path is made to never block or look for
emergency memory pools, minimizing the allocation latency. If the
allocation fails, the existing preallocated stats instance is used.
Also, if only CPUs from one NUMA-node are updating the preallocated
stats instance, no additional stats instances are allocated. This
eliminates the need to pre-allocate stats instances that will not be
used, also relieving the stats reader from the burden of reading stats
that are never used.

openvswitch: fix a possible deadlock and lockdep warning

There are two problematic situations.

A deadlock can happen when is_percpu is false because it can get
interrupted while holding the spinlock. Then it executes
ovs_flow_stats_update() in softirq context which tries to get
the same lock.

The second sitation is that when is_percpu is true, the code
correctly disables BH but only for the local CPU, so the
following can happen when locking the remote CPU without
disabling BH:

CPU#0 CPU#1
ovs_flow_stats_get()
stats_read()
+->spin_lock remote CPU#1 ovs_flow_stats_get()
| <interrupted> stats_read()
| ... +--> spin_lock remote CPU#0
| | <interrupted>
| ovs_flow_stats_update() | ...
| spin_lock local CPU#0 <--+ ovs_flow_stats_update()
+---------------------------------- spin_lock local CPU#1

This patch disables BH for both cases fixing the deadlocks.
