H A Dinet_dscp.ha410a0cf Fri Feb 04 07:58:11 CST 2022 Guillaume Nault <gnault@redhat.com> ipv6: Define dscp_t and stop taking ECN bits into account in fib6-rules

Define a dscp_t type and its appropriate helpers that ensure ECN bits
are not taken into account when handling DSCP.

Use this new type to replace the tclass field of struct fib6_rule, so
that fib6-rules don't get influenced by ECN bits anymore.

Before this patch, fib6-rules didn't make any distinction between the
DSCP and ECN bits. Therefore, rules specifying a DSCP (tos or dsfield
options in iproute2) stopped working as soon a packets had at least one
of its ECN bits set (as a work around one could create four rules for
each DSCP value to match, one for each possible ECN value).

After this patch fib6-rules only compare the DSCP bits. ECN doesn't
influence the result anymore. Also, fib6-rules now must have the ECN
bits cleared or they will be rejected.
