Part 1 -- notes in https://ipng.ch/s/articles/2021/08/13/vpp-2.html
Add the ability for VPP to copy out (sync) its state from the dataplane
to Linux Interface Pairs, when they exist. Gated by a configuration
flag (linux-cp { lcp-sync }), and by a CLI option to toggle on/off,
synchronize the following events:
- Interface state changes
- Interface MTU changes
- Interface IPv4/IPv6 address add/deletion
In VPP, subints can have any link state and MTU, orthogonal to their
phy. In Linux, setting admin-down on a phy forces its children to be
down as well. Also, in Linux, MTU of children must not exceed that of
the phy. Add a state synchronizer which walks over phy+subints to
ensure Linux and VPP end up in the same consistent state.
Part 2 -- notes in https://ipng.ch/s/articles/2021/08/15/vpp-3.html
Add the ability for VPP to autocreate sub-interfaces of existing Linux
Interface pairs. Gated by a configuration flag
(linux-cp { lcp-auto-subint }), and by a CLI option to toggle on/off,
synchronize the following event:
- Sub-interface creation (dot1q, dot1ad, QinQ and QinAD)
A few other changes:
- Add two functions into netlink.[ch] to delete ip4 and ip6 addresses.
- Remove a spurious logline (printing MTU) in netlink.c.
- Resolve a TODO around vnet_sw_interface_supports_addressing()

This fixes the GSO size calculation in af_packet
which didn't include the ethernet size.
This is not ideal, as we default to the host
side mtu to check whether a packet is GSO or not
and to set the GSO size. But there doesn't seem
to be more info passed with the packets.

Type: fix
In tap_create_if(), if args->host_namespace or args->host_bridge are
null because no values were set for those, the virtio_if_t entry in
virtio_main.interfaces ends up getting populated with values of "(nil)"
in net_ns or host_bridge, respectively.
Check whether args->host_namespace and args->host_bridge are null before
trying to set the corresponding fields on virtio_if_t.

Type: fix
Currently when a new TAP/TUN device is created from tap_create_if()
via the TUNSETIFF ioctl(), a name is allocated by the kernel (eg.
tap0). If the caller supplied a name this is subsequently set via
netlink, after the device has been created.
Now we request the kernel to create the new device with the caller's
requested name in the first instance, thus avoiding the need to
rename the device, and therefore avoiding a window where the device
exists with a different name.
This can be beneficial, for example, when writing systemd-udevd link
files [1]. Having the TAP/TUN devices created with the requested name
ensures they can be correctly matched by the OriginalName option.
Writing link files might be necessary, for example, to avoid VPP and
systemd-udevd racing to set the MAC address on a newly created TAP
interface. systemd-udevd can be configured to not manipulate the MAC
addresses of matched interfaces.
These changes also resolve an issue where the created device would not
be renamed if the caller requested it be moved to a different network
namespace, since vnet_netlink_set_link_name() was not called in that
case.

virtio uses indirect descriptors for chain buffers.
indirect descriptor chain is mapped on a vlib_buffer_t.
Single descriptor is 16 bytes and vlib_buffer_t has
2048 bytes space. So maximum long chain can have

This patch adds check to make sure descriptors chain
len should not exceed 128.

When vhost and another interface, say tap, are configured for interrupt
mode, performance number may be very low from vhost.
Further analysis discovers that when vhost posts an interrupt to the
RX infra, there is a 10 msec delay in waking up its input routine.
The delay is due to vhost posts the interrupt from the main thread
which tries to wake up the worker thread.
The fix is for vhost to move the posting interrupt call to the
corresponding input worker thread by calling
vnet_hw_if_set_rx_queue_file_index() to set it up.
While at it, streamline the function vhost_user_kickfd_read_ready()
since it will be called from the worker thread.

virtio/tap interfaces set the empty buffers in the input node
for receiving data. Backend uses those buffers, fills them with
data and notifies the virtio/tap driver. But virtio/tap driver
gets into stall state if interface is created and configured
through exec script on VPP startup.conf and put the interface in
interrupt mode while VPP is only configured with main thread.
This patch fixes the problem by prefilling buffers during the
interface creation.

trajectory trace has been broken for a while because we used to save the
buffer trajectory in a vector pointed to in opaque2. This does not work
well when opaque2 is copied (eg. because of a clone) as 2 buffers end up
sharing the same vector.
This dedicates a full cacheline in the buffer metadata instead when
trajectory is compiled in. No dynamic allocation, no sharing, no tears.

Patch 24601 introduced description into template. In vhost_user_process,
template is reused inside the while loop to call clib_file_add. But
description is allocated outside of the loop only once. As a result, the
same storage for description is being referenced by all instances of call
to clib_file_add. As long as we don't call clib_file_del, we may be
good with multiple fds sharing the same storage for the description. When
one of the fds disconnects and frees the description, the other fds is
holding onto the free memory pointer. Bad news eventually happens when
another fd disconnects and frees the description that was already free
previously.
The fix is to move the allocation of description inside the loop to avoid
sharing.
