Both the events and flags fields in tcp_splice_conn have several bits
which are per-side, e.g. OUT_WAIT_0 for side 0 and OUT_WAIT_1 for side 1.
This necessitates some rather awkward ternary expressions when we need
to get the relevant bit for a particular side.
Simplify this by using a parameterised macro for the bit values. This
needs a ternary expression inside the macros, but makes the places we use
it substantially clearer.
That simplification in turn allows us to use a loop across each side to
implement several things which are currently open coded to do equivalent
things for each side in turn.

In various places we have variables named 'side' or similar which always
have the value 0 or 1 (INISIDE or TGTSIDE). Given a flow, this refers to
a specific side of it. Upcoming flow table work will make it more useful
for "side" to refer to a specific side of a specific flow. To make things
less confusing then, prefer the name term "side index" and name 'sidei' for
variables with just the 0 or 1 value.

We have several functions which are used as callbacks for NS_CALL() which
only read their void * parameter, they don't write it. The

casting the function pointer when used as a callback.
Casting the function pointers seems substantially uglier than using a

the void * to a const pointer of specific type immediately. So, suppress

Each flow in the flow table has two sides, 0 and 1, representing the
two interfaces between which passt/pasta will forward data for that flow.
Which side is which is currently up to the protocol specific code: TCP
uses side 0 for the host/"sock" side and 1 for the guest/"tap" side, except
for spliced connections where it uses 0 for the initiating side and 1 for
the target side. ICMP also uses 0 for the host/"sock" side and 1 for the
guest/"tap" side, but in its case the latter is always also the initiating
side.
Make this generically consistent by always using side 0 for the initiating
side and 1 for the target side. This doesn't simplify a lot for now, and
arguably makes TCP slightly more complex, since we add an extra field to
the connection structure to record which is the guest facing side. This is

The flow dispatches deferred and timer handling for flows centrally, but
needs to call into protocol specific code for the handling of individual

to pass the specific relevant flow type structure. That brings the check
on the flow type adjacent to casting to the union variant which it tags.
Arguably, this is a slight abstraction violation since it involves the

In tcp_splice_sock_handler(), if we get EAGAIN on the second splice(),
from pipe to receiving socket, that doesn't necessarily mean that the
pipe is empty: the receiver buffer might be full instead.
Hence, we can't use the 'never_read' flag to decide that there's
nothing to wait for: even if we didn't read anything from the sending
side in a given iteration, we might still have data to send in the
pipe. Use read/written counters, instead.
This fixes an issue where large bulk transfers would occasionally
hang. From a corresponding strace:
0.000061 epoll_wait(4, [{events=EPOLLOUT, data={u32=29442, u64=12884931330}}], 8, 1000) = 1

0.000044 epoll_wait(4, [], 8, 1000) = 0
we're reading from socket 211 into to the pipe end numbered 151,
which connects to pipe end 150, and from there we're writing into
socket 115.
We initially drop EPOLLOUT from the set of monitored flags for socket
115, because it already signaled it's ready for output. Then we read
nothing from socket 211 (the sender had nothing to send), and we keep
emptying the pipe into socket 115 (first 1048576 bytes, then 520415
bytes).
This call of tcp_splice_sock_handler() ends with EAGAIN on the writing
side, and we just exit this function without setting the OUT_WAIT_1
flag (and, in turn, EPOLLOUT for socket 115). However, it turns out,
the pipe wasn't actually emptied, and while socket 211 had nothing
more to send, we should have waited on socket 115 to be ready for
output again.
As a further step, we could consider not clearing EPOLLOUT at all,
unless the read/written counters match, but I'm first trying to fix
this ugly issue with a minimal patch.

The epoll references for both TCP listening sockets and UDP sockets

As we move towards a more flexible forwarding model for passt, it's
going to become possible for that destination port to vary depending
on more things (for example the source or destination address). So,
it will no longer make sense to have a fixed value for a listening
socket.

system calls to update epoll tags with the new location too.
Implement a new way of managing the flow table that doesn't ever move

first free slot for a new connection, and mitigates the effect of non

Currently TCP uses the 'flow' epoll_ref field for both connected
sockets and timers, which consists of just the index of the relevant
flow (connection).
This is just fine for timers, for while it obviously works, it's
subtly incomplete for sockets on spliced connections. In that case we
want to know which side of the connection the event is occurring on as
well as which connection. At present, we deduce that information by
looking at the actual fd, and comparing it to the fds of the sockets
on each side.
When we use the flow table for more things, we expect more cases where
something will need to know a specific side of a specific flow for an
event, but nothing more.
Therefore add a new 'flowside' epoll_ref field, with exactly that
information. We use it for TCP connected sockets. This allows us to
directly know the side for spliced connections. For "tap"
connections, it's pretty meaningless, since the side is always the
socket side. It still makes logical sense though, and it may become

prefix is also a little bulky to carry around for every message,
particularly for spliced connections.
To help keep this consistent, introduce some helpers to log messages
linked to a specific flow. It takes the flow as a parameter and adds a
uniform prefix to each message. This makes things slightly neater now, but
more importantly will help keep formatting consistent as we add more things
to the flow table.

tcp_table_compact() will move entries in the connection/flow table to keep
it compact when other entries are removed. The moved entries need not have
the same type as the flow removed, so it needs to be able to handle moving
any type of flow. Therefore, move it to flow.c rather than being
purportedly TCP specific.

Both tcp.c and tcp_splice.c define CONN_IDX() variants to find the index
of their connection structures in the connection table, now become the
unified flow table. We can easily combine these into a common helper.
While we're there, add some trickery for some additional type safety.
They also define their own CONN() versions, which aren't so easily combined
since they need to return different types, but we can have them use a
common helper.
In the process, we standardise on always using an unsigned type to store
the connection / flow index, which makes more sense. tcp.c's conn_at_idx()
remains for now, but we change its parameter to unsigned to match. That in
turn means we can remove a check for negative values from it.

We want to generalise "connection" tracking to things other than true TCP
connections. Continue implenenting this by renaming the TCP connection
table to the "flow table" and moving it to flow.c. The definitions are
split between flow.h and flow_table.h - we need this separation to avoid
circular dependencies: the definitions in flow.h will be needed by many
headers using the flow mechanism, but flow_table.h needs all those protocol
specific headers in order to define the full flow table entry.

Currently TCP connections use a 1-bit selector, 'spliced', to determine the
rest of the contents of the structure. We want to generalise the TCP
connection table to other types of flows in other protocols. Make a start
on this by replacing the tcp_conn_common structure with a new flow_common
structure with an enum rather than a simple boolean indicating the type of
flow.

Types size_t and ssize_t are not necessarily long, it depends on the

tcp_splice_sock_handler() uses the tcp_splice_dir() helper to select
which of the socket, pipe and counter fields to use depending on which
side of the connection the socket event is coming from.
Now that we are using arrays for the two sides, rather than separate named
fields, we can instead just use a variable indicating the side and use
that to index the arrays whever we need a particular side's field.

tcp_splice_destroy() has some close-to-duplicated logic handling closing of
the socket and pipes for each side of the connection. We can use a loop
across the sides to reduce the duplication.

tcp_splice_connect_finish() has two very similar blocks opening the two
pipes for each direction of the connection. We can deduplicate this with
a loop across the two sides.
