11cc43feec pcap: Don't make pcap files world-readable
Even if it's just a debugging feature, it's not nice to leak packets
to everybody around.

e4b94da0af pcap: Don't reinitialise packet capture if we already have one
If the guest disconnects, and a given name (without timestamp) for
the pcap file is passed, we would otherwise lose the packets

4b0ccb8323 ndp: Set router lifetime to 9000s instead of 3600s
Seen while testing: lifetime expires while we're flooding a tap
interface with UDP packets, the router advertisement comes too late,
and the kernel drops the default router in the namespace. This
should only affect testing, so go for the maximum allowed value,
that is, 9000 seconds.

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.

9b6769d53b tcp: Don't reset connection from ESTABLISHED state on EPOLLHUP
That might just mean we shut down the socket -- but we still have to
go through the other states to ensure a orderly shutdown guest-side.

While at it, drop the EPOLLHUP check for unhandled states: we should
never hit that, but if we do, resetting the connection at that point
is probably the wrong thing to do.

e58828f340 tcp: Fixes for closing states, spliced connections, out-of-order packets, etc.
This fixes a number of issues found with some heavier testing with
uperf and neper:

- in most closing states, we can still accept data, check for EPOLLIN
  when appropriate

- introduce a new state, ESTABLISHED_SOCK_FIN_SENT, to track the fact
  we already sent a FIN segment to the tap device, for proper sequence
  number bookkeeping

- for pasta mode only: spliced connections also need tracking of
  (inferred) FIN segments and clean half-pipe shutdowns

- streamline resetting epoll_wait bitmaps with a new function,
  tcp_tap_epoll_mask(), instead of repeating the logic all over the
  place

- set EPOLLET for tap connections too, whenever we are waiting for
  EPOLLRDHUP or an event from the tap to proceed with data transfer,
  to avoid useless loops with EPOLLIN set

- impose an additional limit on the sending window advertised to the
  guest, given by SO_SNDBUF: it makes no sense to completely fill
  the sending buffer and send a zero window: stop a bit before we
  hit that

- handle *all* interrupted system calls as needed

- simplify the logic for reordering of out-of-order segments received
  from tap: it's not a corner case, and the previous logic allowed
  for deadloops

- fix comparison of seen IPv4 address when we get a new connection
  from a socket directed to the configured guest address

77d4efa236 udp: Handle partial failure in sendmmsg() to UNIX domain socket
Similarly to the handling introduced by commit "tcp: Proper error
handling for sendmmsg() to UNIX domain socket" for TCP, we need to
deal with partial sendmmsg() failures for UDP as well.

Here, we can lose messages, but we need to make sure that the last
message is delivered completely, otherwise qemu will fail to
reassemble further packets. For UDP, this is somewhat complicated
by the fact that one message might include multiple datagrams, and
we need to respect message boundaries: go through headers, and
calculate what we need to re-send, if anything.
