net: gro: move L3 flush checks to tcp_gro_receive and udp_gro_receive_segment

{inet,ipv6}_gro_receive functions perform flush checks (ttl, flags,
iph->id, ...) against all packets in a loop. These flush checks are used in
all merging UDP and TCP flows.

These checks need to be done only once and only against the found p skb,
since they only affect flush and not same_flow.

This patch leverages correct network header offsets from the cb for both
outer and inner network headers - allowing these checks to be done only
once, in tcp_gro_receive and udp_gro_receive_segment. As a result,
NAPI_GRO_CB(p)->flush is not used at all. In addition, flush_id checks are
more declarative and contained in inet_gro_flush, thus removing the need
for flush_id in napi_gro_cb.

This results in less parsing code for non-loop flush tests for TCP and UDP
flows.

To make sure results are not within noise range - I've made netfilter drop
all TCP packets, and measured CPU performance in GRO (in this case GRO is
responsible for about 50% of the CPU utilization).

net: gro: fix udp bad offset in socket lookup by adding {inner_}network_offset to napi_gro_cb

net: gro: fix udp bad offset in socket lookup by adding {inner_}network_offset to napi_gro_cb

Commits a602456 ("udp: Add GRO functions to UDP socket") and 57c67ff ("udp:
additional GRO support") introduce incorrect usage of {ip,ipv6}_hdr in the
complete phase of gro. The functions always return skb->network_header,
which in the case of encapsulated packets at the gro complete phase, is
always set to the innermost L3 of the packet. That means that calling
{ip,ipv6}_hdr for skbs which completed the GRO receive phase (both in
gro_list and *_gro_complete) when parsing an encapsulated packet's _outer_
L3/L4 may return an unexpected value.

This incorrect usage leads to a bug in GRO's UDP socket lookup.
udp{4,6}_lib_lookup_skb functions use ip_hdr/ipv6_hdr respectively. These
*_hdr functions return network_header which will point to the innermost L3,
resulting in the wrong offset being used in __udp{4,6}_lib_lookup with
encapsulated packets.

This patch adds network_offset and inner_network_offset to napi_gro_cb, and
makes sure both are set correctly.

To fix the issue, network_offsets union is used inside napi_gro_cb, in
which both the outer and the inner network offsets are saved.

Reproduction example:

Endpoint configuration example (fou + local address bind)

# ip fou add port 6666 ipproto 4
# ip link add name tun1 type ipip remote 2.2.2.1 local 2.2.2.2 encap fou encap-dport 5555 encap-sport 6666 mode ipip

gro: fix ownership transfer

If packets are GROed with fraglist they might be segmented later on and
continue their journey in the stack. In skb_segment_list those skbs can
be reused as-is. This is an issue as their destructor was removed in
skb_gro_receive_list but not the reference to their socket, and then
they can't be orphaned. Fix this by also removing the reference to the
socket.

For example this could be observed,

Currently the so-called GRO fast path is only enabled for

We therefore can initialize frag0 to skb->data so that GRO
fast path can be used in the following additional cases:

- Drivers using header split (populating skb->data with headers,
and having payload in one or more page fragments).

- Drivers not using any page frag (entire packet is in skb->data)

to generate better code if possible.

gro: decrease size of CB

The GRO control block (NAPI_GRO_CB) is currently at its maximum size.
This commit reduces its size by putting two groups of fields that are
used only at different times into a union.

Specifically, the fields frag0 and frag0_len are the fields that make up
the frag0 optimisation mechanism, which is used during the initial
parsing of the SKB.

The fields last and age are used after the initial parsing, while the
SKB is stored in the GRO list, waiting for other packets to arrive.

There was one location in dev_gro_receive that modified the frag0 fields
after setting last and age. I changed this accordingly without altering
the code behaviour.

net: add support for ipv4 big tcp

Similar to Eric's IPv6 BIG TCP, this patch is to enable IPv4 BIG TCP.

Firstly, allow sk->sk_gso_max_size to be set to a value greater than
GSO_LEGACY_MAX_SIZE by not trimming gso_max_size in sk_trim_gso_size()
for IPv4 TCP sockets.

Then on TX path, set IP header tot_len to 0 when skb->len > IP_MAX_MTU
in __ip_local_out() to allow to send BIG TCP packets, and this implies
that skb->len is the length of a IPv4 packet; On RX path, use skb->len
as the length of the IPv4 packet when the IP header tot_len is 0 and
skb->len > IP_MAX_MTU in ip_rcv_core(). As the API iph_set_totlen() and
skb_ip_totlen() are used in __ip_local_out() and ip_rcv_core(), we only
need to update these APIs.

Also in GRO receive, add the check for ETH_P_IP/IPPROTO_TCP, and allows
the merged packet size >= GRO_LEGACY_MAX_SIZE in skb_gro_receive(). In
GRO complete, set IP header tot_len to 0 when the merged packet size
greater than IP_MAX_MTU in iph_set_totlen() so that it can be processed
on RX path.

Note that by checking skb_is_gso_tcp() in API iph_totlen(), it makes
this implementation safe to use iph->len == 0 indicates IPv4 BIG TCP
packets.

However as we start looking at adding support for wireless adapters there

HW-GRO (aka RSC for some vendors) is very often limited in presence

This also means BIG TCP can still be used, even if HW-GRO/RSC was
