7114fc92eb tcp: Simplify tcp_hash_match() to take an inany_addr
tcp_hash_match() can take either an IPv4 (struct in_addr) or IPv6 (struct
in6_addr) address.  It has two different paths for each of those cases.
However, its only caller has already constructed an equivalent inany
representation of the address, so we can have tcp_hash_match take that
directly and use a simpler comparison with the inany_equals() helper.

eb050b5a19 tcp: Take tcp_hash_insert() address from struct tcp_conn
tcp_hash_insert() takes an address to control which hash bucket the
connection will go into.  However, an inany_addr representation of that
address is already stored in struct tcp_conn.

Now that we've made the hashing of IPv4 and IPv4-mapped IPv6 addresses
equivalent, we can simplify tcp_hash_insert() to use the address in
struct tcp_conn, rather than taking it as an extra parameter.

685f97b8de tcp: Hash IPv4 and IPv4-mapped-IPv6 addresses the same
In the tcp_conn structure, we represent the address with an inany_addr
which could be an IPv4 or IPv6 address.  However, we have different paths
which will calculate different hashes for IPv4 and equivalent IPv4-mapped
IPv6 addresses.  This will cause problems for some future changes.

Make the hash function work the same for these two cases, by taking an
inany_addr directly.  Since this represents IPv4 and IPv4-mapped IPv6
addresses the same way, it will trivially hash the same for both cases.

Callers are changed to construct an inany_addr from whatever they have.
Some of that will be elided in later changes.

ca69c3f196 inany: Helper functions for handling addresses which could be IPv4 or IPv6
struct tcp_conn stores an address which could be IPv6 or IPv4 using a
union.  We can do this without an additional tag by encoding IPv4 addresses
as IPv4-mapped IPv6 addresses.

This approach is useful wider than the specific place in tcp_conn, so
expose a new 'union inany_addr' like this from a new inany.h.  Along with
that create a number of helper functions to make working with these "inany"
addresses easier.

b65d603e23 tcp: Don't store hash bucket in connection structures
Currently when we insert a connection into the hash table, we store its
bucket number so we can find it when removing entries.  However, we can
recompute the hash value from other contents of the structure so we don't
need to store it.  This brings the size of tcp_tap_conn down to 64 bytes
again, which means it will fit in a single cacheline on common machines.

This change also removes a non-obvious constraint that the hash table have
less than twice TCP_MAX_CONNS buckets, because of the way
TCP_HASH_BUCKET_BITS was constructed.

233b95e90f tcp: Remove splice from tcp_epoll_ref
Currently the epoll reference for tcp sockets includes a bit indicating
whether the socket maps to a spliced connection.  However, the reference
also has the index of the connection structure which also indicates whether
it is spliced.  We can therefore avoid the splice bit in the epoll_ref by
unifying the first part of the non-spliced and spliced handlers where we
look up the connection state.

d909fda1e8 tcp: Use the same sockets to listen for spliced and non-spliced connections
In pasta mode, tcp_sock_init[46]() create separate sockets to listen for
spliced connections (these are bound to localhost) and non-spliced
connections (these are bound to the host address).  This introduces a
subtle behavioural difference between pasta and passt: by default, pasta
will listen only on a single host address, whereas passt will listen on
all addresses (0.0.0.0 or ::).  This also prevents us using some additional
optimizations that only work with the unspecified (0.0.0.0 or ::) address.

However, it turns out we don't need to do this.  We can splice a connection
if and only if it originates from the loopback address.  Currently we
ensure this by having the "spliced" listening sockets listening only on
loopback.  Instead, defer the decision about whether to splice a connection
until after accept(), by checking if the connection was made from the
loopback address.

356c6e0677 tcp: Unify part of spliced and non-spliced conn_from_sock path
In tcp_sock_handler() we split off to handle spliced sockets before
checking anything else.  However the first steps of the "new connection"
path for each case are the same: allocate a connection entry and accept()
the connection.

Remove this duplication by making tcp_conn_from_sock() handle both spliced
and non-spliced cases, with help from more specific tcp_tap_conn_from_sock
and tcp_splice_conn_from_sock functions for the later stages which differ.

73d3a3e84e tcp: Separate helpers to create ns listening sockets
tcp_sock_init*() can create either sockets listening on the host, or in
the pasta network namespace (with @ns==1).  There are, however, a number
of differences in how these two cases work in practice though.  "ns"
sockets are only used in pasta mode, and they always lead to spliced
connections only.  The functions are also only ever called in "ns" mode
with a NULL address and interface name, and it doesn't really make sense
for them to be called any other way.

Later changes will introduce further differences in behaviour between these
two cases, so it makes more sense to use separate functions for creating
the ns listening sockets than the regular external/host listening sockets.

ee8f8e9564 tcp: Unify spliced and non-spliced connection tables
Currently spliced and non-spliced connections are stored in completely
separate tables, so there are completely independent limits on the number
of spliced and non-spliced connections.  This is a bit counter-intuitive.

More importantly, the fact that the tables are separate prevents us from
unifying some other logic between the two cases.  So, merge these two
tables into one, using the 'c.spliced' common field to distinguish between
them when necessary.

For now we keep a common limit of 128k connections, whether they're spliced
or non-spliced, which means we save memory overall.  If necessary we could
increase this to a 256k or higher total, which would cost memory but give
some more flexibility.

For now, the code paths which need to step through all extant connections
are still separate for the two cases, just skipping over entries which
aren't for them.  We'll improve that in later patches.

ff27fd63cd tcp: Add connection union type
Currently, the tables for spliced and non-spliced connections are entirely
separate, with different types in different arrays.  We want to unify them.
As a first step, create a union type which can represent either a spliced
or non-spliced connection.  For them to be distinguishable, the individual
types need to have a common header added, with a bit indicating which type
this structure is.

This comes at the cost of increasing the size of tcp_tap_conn to over one
(64 byte) cacheline.  This isn't ideal, but it makes things simpler for now
and we'll re-optimize this later.

ab6f825889 util, pasta: Add do_clone() wrapper around __clone2() and clone()
Spotted in Debian's buildd logs: on ia64, clone(2) is not available:
the glibc wrapper is named __clone2() and it takes, additionally,
the size of the stack area passed by the caller.

Add a do_clone() wrapper handling the different cases, and also
taking care of pointing the child's stack in the middle of the
allocated area: on PA-RISC (hppa), handled by clone(), the stack
grows up, and on ia64 the stack grows down, but the register backing
store grows up -- and I think it might be actually used here.

817eedc28a tcp, udp: Don't initialise IPv6/IPv4 sockets if IPv4/IPv6 are not enabled
If we disable a given IP version automatically (no corresponding
default route on host) or administratively (--ipv4-only or
--ipv6-only options), we don't initialise related buffers and
services (DHCP for IPv4, NDP and DHCPv6 for IPv6). The "tap"
handlers will also ignore packets with a disabled IP version.

However, in commit 3c6ae62510 ("conf, tcp, udp: Allow address
specification for forwarded ports") I happily changed socket
initialisation functions to take AF_UNSPEC meaning "any enabled
IP version", but I forgot to add checks back for the "enabled"
part.

Reported by Paul: on a host without default IPv6 route, but IPv6
enabled, connect, using IPv6, to a port handled by pasta, which
tries to send data to a tap device without initialised buffers
for that IP version and exits because the resulting write() fails.

Simpler way to reproduce: pasta -6 and inbound IPv4 connection, or
pasta -4 and inbound IPv6 connection.

510dace86c tap: Keep stream consistent if qemu length descriptor spans two recv() calls
I got all paranoid after triggering a divide-by-zero general
protection fault in passt with a qemu version without the virtio_net
TX hang fix, while flooding UDP. I start thinking this was actually
coming from some random changes I was playing with, but before
reaching this conclusion I reviewed once more the relatively short
path in tap_handler_passt() before we start using packet_*()
functions, and found this.

Never observed in practice, but artificially reproduced with changes
in qemu's socket interface: if we don't receive from qemu a complete
length descriptor in one recv() call, or if we receive a partial one
at the end of one call, we currently disregard the rest, which would
make the stream inconsistent.

Nothing really bad happens, except that from that point on we would
disregard all the packets we get until, if ever, we get the stream
back in sync by chance.

Force reading a complete packet length descriptor with a blocking
recv(), if needed -- not just a complete packet later.

/usr/bin, change the path in the test itself as well. Otherwise
it works with bash but not with dash for some reason.

11efaefa1e passt, qrap, README: Update notes and documentation for AF_UNIX support in qemu
We can't get rid of qrap quite yet, but at least we should start
telling users it's not going to be needed anymore starting from qemu
7.2.

6c1697764c test/perf: Finally drop workaround for virtio_net TX stall
Now that we require 13c6be96618c ("net: stream: add unix socket")
in qemu to run the tests, we can also assume that commit df8d07081718
("virtio-net: fix bottom-half packet TX on asynchronous completion")
is present, as it was merged before that one.

This fixes the issue we attempted to work around in passt TCP and
UDP performance tests: finally drop that stuff.

667397db11 test: Switch to qemu -netdev stream option instead of using qrap
qemu commit 13c6be96618c ("net: stream: add unix socket") introduces
support for native AF_UNIX support, finally making qrap useless.

We can't quite drop that yet until a qemu release includes it, and
then we'll need to wait a while for users to switch anyway, but at
least for tests, we can use that support.

1401962a37 test: Wait for network before starting passt in two_guests setup
As pasta now configures that target network namespace with
--config-net, we need to wait for addresses and routes to be actually
present. Just sending netlink messages doesn't mean this is done
synchronously.

A more elegant alternative, which probably makes sense regardless of
this test setup, would be to query, from pasta, addresses and routes
we added, and wait until they're there, before proceeding.

db74679f98 udp: Check for answers to forwarded DNS queries before handling local redirects
Now that we allow loopback DNS addresses to be used as targets for
forwarding, we need to check if DNS answers come from those targets,
before deciding to eventually remap traffic for local redirects.

Otherwise, the source address won't match the one configured as
forwarder, which means that the guest or the container will refuse
those responses.

73f50a76aa conf: Split the notions of read DNS addresses and offered ones
With --dns-forward, if the host has a loopback address configured as
DNS server, we should actually use it to forward queries, but, if
--no-map-gw is passed, we shouldn't offer the same address via DHCP,
NDP and DHCPv6, because it's not going to be reachable.

Problematic configuration:

* systemd-resolved configuring the usual 127.0.0.53 on the host: we
  read that from /etc/resolv.conf

* --dns-forward specified with an unrelated address, for example
  198.51.100.1

We still want to forward queries to 127.0.0.53, if we receive one
directed to 198.51.100.1, so we can't drop 127.0.0.53 from our list:
we want to use it for forwarding. At the same time, we shouldn't
offer 127.0.0.53 to the guest or container either.

With this change, I'm only covering the case of automatically
configured DNS servers from /etc/resolv.conf. We could extend this to
addresses configured with command-line options, but I don't really
see a likely use case at this point.

7656a6f888 conf: Adjust netmask on mismatch between IPv4 address/netmask and gateway
Seen in a Google Compute Engine environment with a machine configured
via cloud-init-dhcp, while testing Podman integration for pasta: the
assigned address has a /32 netmask, and there's a default route,
which can be added on the host because there's another route, also
/32, pointing to the default gateway. For example, on the host:

  ip -4 address add 10.156.0.2/32 dev eth0
  ip -4 route add 10.156.0.1/32 dev eth0
  ip -4 route add default via 10.156.0.1

This is not a valid configuration as far as I can tell: if the
address is configured as /32, it shouldn't be used to reach a gateway
outside its derived netmask. However, Linux allows that, and
everything works.

The problem comes when pasta --config-net sources address and default
route from the host, and it can't configure the route in the target
namespace because the gateway is invalid. That is, we would skip
configuring the first route in the example, which results in the
equivalent of doing:

  ip -4 address add 10.156.0.2/32 dev eth0
  ip -4 route add default via 10.156.0.1

where, at this point, 10.156.0.1 is unreachable, and hence invalid
as a gateway.

Sourcing more routes than just the default is doable, but probably
undesirable: pasta users want to provide connectivity to a container,
not reflect exactly whatever trickery is configured on the host.

Add a consistency check and an adjustment: if the configured default
gateway is not reachable, shrink the given netmask until we can reach
it.
