netdevsim: Add trailing zero to terminate the string in nsim_nexthop_bucket_activity_write()

This was found by a static analyzer.
We should not forget the trailing zero after copy_from_user()
if we will further do some string operations, sscanf() in this
case. Adding a trailing zero will ensure that the function
performs properly.

[tree-wide] finally take no_llseek out

no_llseek had been defined to NULL two years ago, in commit 868941b14441
("fs: remove no_llseek")

To quote that commit,

At -rc1 we'll need do a mechanical removal of no_llseek -

git grep -l -w no_llseek | grep -v porting.rst | while read i; do
sed -i '/\<no_llseek\>/d' $i
done

would do it.

Unfortunately, that hadn't been done. Linus, could you do that now, so
that we could finally put that thing to rest? All instances are of the
form
.llseek = no_llseek,
so it's obviously safe.

netdevsim: fib: Add debugfs knob to simulate route deletion failure

The previous patch ("netdevsim: fib: Fix reference count leak on route
deletion failure") fixed a reference count leak that happens on route
deletion failure.

Such failures can only be simulated by injecting slab allocation
failures, which cannot be surgically injected.

In order to be able to specifically test this scenario, add a debugfs
knob that allows user space to fail route deletion requests when
enabled.

netdevsim: fib: Fix reference count leak on route deletion failure

As part of FIB offload simulation, netdevsim stores IPv4 and IPv6 routes
and holds a reference on FIB info structures that in turn hold a
reference on the associated nexthop device(s).

In the unlikely case where we are unable to allocate memory to process a
route deletion request, netdevsim will not release the reference from
the associated FIB info structure, thereby preventing the associated
nexthop device(s) from ever being removed [1].

Fix this by scheduling a work item that will flush netdevsim's FIB table
upon route deletion failure. This will cause netdevsim to release its
reference from all the FIB info structures in its table.

netdevsim: Allow reporting activity on nexthop buckets

A key component of the resilient hashing algorithm is the hash buckets'
activity. If a bucket is active, it will not be populated with a new
nexthop in order not to break existing flows. Therefore, in order to
easily and thoroughly test the algorithm, we need to be in full control
over the reported activity.

Add a debugfs interface that allows user space to have netdevsim report
a nexthop bucket within a resilient nexthop group as active. For
example:

# echo 10 23 > /sys/kernel/debug/netdevsim/netdevsim10/fib/nexthop_bucket_activity

Will mark bucket 23 in nexthop group 10 as active.

acknowledgment, which means the route was installed in the kernel, but not
necessarily in hardware.

The asynchronous nature of route installation in hardware can lead to a
routing daemon advertising a route before it was actually installed in
hardware. This can result in packet loss or mis-routed packets until the
route is installed in hardware.

To avoid such cases, previous patch set added the ability to emit
RTM_NEWROUTE notifications whenever RTM_F_OFFLOAD/RTM_F_TRAP flags
are changed, this behavior is controlled by sysctl.

With the above mentioned behavior, it is possible to know from user-space
if the route was offloaded, but if the offload fails there is no indication
to user-space. Following a failure, a routing daemon will wait indefinitely
for a notification that will never come.

This patch adds an "offload_failed" indication to IPv6 routes, so that
users will have better visibility into the offload process.

'struct fib6_info' is extended with new field that indicates if route
offload failed. Note that the new field is added using unused bit and
therefore there is no need to increase struct size.

net: Pass 'net' struct as first argument to fib6_info_hw_flags_set()

The next patch will emit notification when hardware flags are changed,
in case that fib_notify_on_flag_change sysctl is set to 1.

To know sysctl values, net struct is needed.
This change is consistent with the IPv4 version, which gets 'net' struct
as its first argument.

Currently, the only callers of this function are mlxsw and netdevsim.
Patch the callers to pass net.

netdevsim: fib: Perform the route programming in a non-atomic context

Currently, netdevsim implements dummy FIB offload and marks notified
routes with RTM_F_TRAP flag. netdevsim does not defer route notifications
to a work queue because it does not need to program any hardware.

Given that netdevsim's purpose is to both give an example implementation
and allow developers to test their code, align netdevsim to a "real"
hardware device driver like mlxsw and have it also perform the route
"programming" in a non-atomic context.

It will be used to test route flags notifications which will be added in
the next patches.

The following changes are needed when route handling is performed in WQ:
- Handle the accounting in the main context, to be able to return an
error for adding route when all the routes are used.
For FIB_EVENT_ENTRY_REPLACE increase the counter before scheduling
the delayed work, and in case that this event replaces an existing route,
decrease the counter as part of the delayed work.

- For IPv6, cannot use fen6_info->rt->fib6_siblings list because it
might be changed during handling the delayed work.
Save an array with the nexthops as part of fib6_event struct, and take
a reference for each nexthop to prevent them from being freed while
event is queued.

- Change GFP_ATOMIC allocations to GFP_KERNEL.

- Use single work item that is handling a list of ordered routes.
Handling routes must be processed in the order they were submitted to
avoid logical errors that could lead to unexpected failures.

netdevsim: fib: Convert the current occupancy to an atomic variable

When route is added/deleted, the appropriate counter is increased/decreased
to maintain number of routes.

User can limit the number of routes and then according to the appropriate
counter, adding more routes than the limitation is forbidden.

Currently, there is one lock which protects hashtable, list and accounting.

Handling the counters will be performed from both atomic context and
non-atomic context, while the hashtable and the list will be used only from
non-atomic context and therefore will be protected by a separate lock.

Protect accounting by using an atomic variable, so lock is not needed.

v2:
* Use atomic64_sub() in nsim_nexthop_account()'s error path

nexthop: Use enum to encode notification type

Currently there are only two types of in-kernel nexthop notification.
The two are distinguished by the 'is_grp' boolean field in 'struct
nh_notifier_info'.

As more notification types are introduced for more next-hop group types, a
boolean is not an easily extensible interface. Instead, convert it to an
enum.
