b93c2c1713 passt: Drop <linux/ipv6.h> include, carry own ipv6hdr and opt_hdr definitions
This is the only remaining Linux-specific include -- drop it to avoid
clang-tidy warnings and to make code more portable.

dd942eaa48 passt: Fix build with gcc 7, use std=c99, enable some more Clang checkers
Unions and structs, you all have names now.

Take the chance to enable bugprone-reserved-identifier,
cert-dcl37-c, and cert-dcl51-cpp checkers in clang-tidy.

Provide a ffsl() weak declaration using gcc built-in.

Start reordering includes, but that's not enough for the
llvm-include-order checker yet.

dd581730e5 tap: Completely de-serialise input message batches
Until now, messages would be passed to protocol handlers in a single
batch only if they happened to be dequeued in a row. Packets
interleaved between different connections would result in multiple
calls to the same protocol handler for a single connection.

Instead, keep track of incoming packet descriptors, arrange them in
sequences, and call protocol handlers only as we completely sorted
input messages in batches.

9663378d6d icmp: Work around possible failure on bind() due to e.g. broken SELinux policy
If we can't bind() ping sockets, the echo identifier sent out from
the socket won't be the original one seen from the tap. Binding a
ping socket doesn't require any security capability, but it might
still fail due to a broken SELinux policy, see for example:
	https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1848929

Track the ICMP echo identifier as part of the epoll reference for
the socket and replace it in the reply on mismatch. We won't send
out the original identifier as sent from the guest, but still better
than missing replies.

16b08367a5 tap: Fill the IPv6 flow label field to represent flow association
This isn't optional: TCP streams must carry a unique, hard-to-guess,
non-zero label for each direction. Linux, probably among others,
will otherwise refuse to associate packets in a given stream to the
same connection.

33482d5bf2 passt: Add PASTA mode, major rework
PASTA (Pack A Subtle Tap Abstraction) provides quasi-native host
connectivity to an otherwise disconnected, unprivileged network
and user namespace, similarly to slirp4netns. Given that the
implementation is largely overlapping with PASST, no separate binary
is built: 'pasta' (and 'passt4netns' for clarity) both link to
'passt', and the mode of operation is selected depending on how the
binary is invoked. Usage example:

	$ unshare -rUn
	# echo $$
	1871759

	$ ./pasta 1871759	# From another terminal

	# udhcpc -i pasta0 2>/dev/null
	# ping -c1 pasta.pizza
	PING pasta.pizza (64.190.62.111) 56(84) bytes of data.
	64 bytes from 64.190.62.111 (64.190.62.111): icmp_seq=1 ttl=255 time=34.6 ms

	--- pasta.pizza ping statistics ---
	1 packets transmitted, 1 received, 0% packet loss, time 0ms
	rtt min/avg/max/mdev = 34.575/34.575/34.575/0.000 ms
	# ping -c1 spaghetti.pizza
	PING spaghetti.pizza(2606:4700:3034::6815:147a (2606:4700:3034::6815:147a)) 56 data bytes
	64 bytes from 2606:4700:3034::6815:147a (2606:4700:3034::6815:147a): icmp_seq=1 ttl=255 time=29.0 ms

	--- spaghetti.pizza ping statistics ---
	1 packets transmitted, 1 received, 0% packet loss, time 0ms
	rtt min/avg/max/mdev = 28.967/28.967/28.967/0.000 ms

This entails a major rework, especially with regard to the storage of
tracked connections and to the semantics of epoll(7) references.

Indexing TCP and UDP bindings merely by socket proved to be
inflexible and unsuitable to handle different connection flows: pasta
also provides Layer-2 to Layer-2 socket mapping between init and a
separate namespace for local connections, using a pair of splice()
system calls for TCP, and a recvmmsg()/sendmmsg() pair for UDP local
bindings. For instance, building on the previous example:

	# ip link set dev lo up
	# iperf3 -s

	$ iperf3 -c ::1 -Z -w 32M -l 1024k -P2 | tail -n4
	[SUM]   0.00-10.00  sec  52.3 GBytes  44.9 Gbits/sec  283             sender
	[SUM]   0.00-10.43  sec  52.3 GBytes  43.1 Gbits/sec                  receiver

	iperf Done.

epoll(7) references now include a generic part in order to
demultiplex data to the relevant protocol handler, using 24
bits for the socket number, and an opaque portion reserved for
usage by the single protocol handlers, in order to track sockets
back to corresponding connections and bindings.

A number of fixes pertaining to TCP state machine and congestion
window handling are also included here.

9311ceb8b6 icmp: Implement lazy bind for ping sockets
It turns out that binding ICMP/ICMPv6 echo sockets takes a long
time. Instead of binding all of them (one for each possible echo
identification number, that is, 2^17) at start-up, bind them as
ICMP/ICMPv6 packets are sent by the guest.

e07f539ae0 udp, passt: Introduce socket packet buffer, avoid getsockname() for UDP
This is in preparation for scatter-gather IO on the UDP receive path:
save a getsockname() syscall by setting a flag if we get the numbering
of all bound sockets in a strict sequence (expected, in practice) and
repurpose the tap buffer to be also a socket receive buffer, passing
it down to protocol handlers.

605af213c5 udp: Connection tracking for ephemeral, local ports, and related fixes
As we support UDP forwarding for packets that are sent to local
ports, we actually need some kind of connection tracking for UDP.
While at it, this commit introduces a number of vaguely related fixes
for issues observed while trying this out. In detail:

- implement an explicit, albeit minimalistic, connection tracking
  for UDP, to allow usage of ephemeral ports by the guest and by
  the host at the same time, by binding them dynamically as needed,
  and to allow mapping address changes for packets with a loopback
  address as destination

- set the guest MAC address whenever we receive a packet from tap
  instead of waiting for an ARP request, and set it to broadcast on
  start, otherwise DHCPv6 might not work if all DHCPv6 requests time
  out before the guest starts talking IPv4

- split context IPv6 address into address we assign, global or site
  address seen on tap, and link-local address seen on tap, and make
  sure we use the addresses we've seen as destination (link-local
  choice depends on source address). Similarly, for IPv4, split into
  address we assign and address we observe, and use the address we
  observe as destination

- introduce a clock_gettime() syscall right after epoll_wait() wakes
  up, so that we can remove all the other ones and pass the current
  timestamp to tap and socket handlers -- this is additionally needed
  by UDP to time out bindings to ephemeral ports and mappings between
  loopback address and a local address

- rename sock_l4_add() to sock_l4(), no semantic changes intended

- include <arpa/inet.h> in passt.c before kernel headers so that we
  can use <netinet/in.h> macros to check IPv6 address types, and
  remove a duplicate <linux/ip.h> inclusion

38b50dba47 passt: Spare some syscalls, add some optimisations from profiling
Avoid a bunch of syscalls on forwarding paths by:

- storing minimum and maximum file descriptor numbers for each
  protocol, fall back to SO_PROTOCOL query only on overlaps

- allocating a larger receive buffer -- this can result in more
  coalesced packets than sendmmsg() can take (UIO_MAXIOV, i.e. 1024),
  so make sure we don't exceed that within a single call to protocol
  tap handlers

- nesting the handling loop in tap_handler() in the receive loop,
  so that we have better chances of filling our receive buffer in
  fewer calls

- skipping the recvfrom() in the UDP handler on EPOLLERR -- there's
  nothing to be done in that case

and while at it:

- restore the 20ms timer interval for periodic (TCP) events, I
  accidentally changed that to 100ms in an earlier commit

- attempt using SO_ZEROCOPY for UDP -- if it's not available,
  sendmmsg() will succeed anyway

- fix the handling of the status code from sendmmsg(), if it fails,
  we'll try to discard the first message, hence return 1 from the
  UDP handler

1f7cf04d34 passt: Introduce packet batching mechanism

with a single syscall, and batch them up with sendmmsg() in case.
