Merge branch 'mlxsw-Implement-ACL-dropped-packets-identification'



Jiri Pirko says:

====================
mlxsw: Implement ACL-dropped packets identification

mlxsw hardware allows to insert a ACL-drop action with a value defined
by user that would be later on passed with a dropped packet.

To implement this, use the existing TC action cookie and pass it to the
driver. As the cookie format coming down from TC and the mlxsw HW cookie
format is different, do the mapping of these two using idr and rhashtable.

The cookie is passed up from the HW through devlink_trap_report() to
drop_monitor code. A new metadata type is used for that.

Example:
$ tc qdisc add dev enp0s16np1 clsact
$ tc filter add dev enp0s16np1 ingress protocol ip pref 10 flower skip_sw dst_ip 192.168.1.2 action drop cookie 3b45fa38c8
                                                                                                                ^^^^^^^^^^
$ devlink trap set pci/0000:00:10.0 trap acl action trap
$ dropwatch

drop at: ingress_flow_action_drop (acl_drops)
origin: hardware
input port ifindex: 30
input port name: enp0s16np1
cookie: 3b45fa38c8    <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<

protocol: 0x800

original length: 98

This way the user may insert multiple drop rules and monitor the dropped
packets with the information of which action caused the drop.
