Extend the XDP Tx metadata framework so that user can requests launch time
hardware offload, where the Ethernet device will schedule the packet for
transmission at a pre-determined time called launch time. The value of
launch time is communicated from user space to Ethernet driver via
launch_time field of struct xsk_tx_metadata.

For XDP_COPY mode, add a UMEM option XDP_UMEM_TX_SW_CSUM
to call skb_checksum_help in transmit path. Might be useful
to debugging issues with real hardware. I also use this mode
in the selftests.

This change actually defines the (initial) metadata layout
that should be used by AF_XDP userspace (xsk_tx_metadata).
The first field is flags which requests appropriate offloads,
followed by the offload-specific fields. The supported per-device
offloads are exported via netlink (new xsk-flags).
The offloads themselves are still implemented in a bit of a
framework-y fashion that's left from my initial kfunc attempt.
I'm introducing new xsk_tx_metadata_ops which drivers are
supposed to implement. The drivers are also supposed
to call xsk_tx_metadata_request/xsk_tx_metadata_complete in
the right places. Since xsk_tx_metadata_{request,_complete}
are static inline, we don't incur any extra overhead doing
indirect calls.
The benefit of this scheme is as follows:
- keeps all metadata layout parsing away from driver code
- makes it easy to grep and see which drivers implement what
- don't need any extra flags to maintain to keep track of what
offloads are implemented; if the callback is implemented - the offload
is supported (used by netlink reporting code)
Two offloads are defined right now:
1. XDP_TXMD_FLAGS_CHECKSUM: skb-style csum_start+csum_offset
2. XDP_TXMD_FLAGS_TIMESTAMP: writes TX timestamp back into metadata
area upon completion (tx_timestamp field)
XDP_TXMD_FLAGS_TIMESTAMP is also implemented for XDP_COPY mode: it writes
SW timestamp from the skb destructor (note I'm reusing hwtstamps to pass
metadata pointer).
The struct is forward-compatible and can be extended in the future
by appending more fields.

For zerocopy mode, tx_desc->addr can point to an arbitrary offset
and carry some TX metadata in the headroom. For copy mode, there
is no way currently to populate skb metadata.
Introduce new tx_metadata_len umem config option that indicates how many
bytes to treat as metadata. Metadata bytes come prior to tx_desc address
(same as in RX case).
The size of the metadata has mostly the same constraints as XDP:
- less than 256 bytes
- 8-byte aligned (compared to 4-byte alignment on xdp, due to 8-byte
timestamp in the completion)
- non-zero
This data is not interpreted in any way right now.

Add the first basic multi-buffer test that sends a stream of 9K
packets and validates that they are received at the other end. In
order to enable sending and receiving multi-buffer packets, code that
sets the MTU is introduced as well as modifications to the XDP
programs so that they signal that they are multi-buffer enabled.

Add the ability to send and receive packets that are larger than the
size of a umem frame, using the AF_XDP /XDP multi-buffer
support. There are three pieces of code that need to be changed to
achieve this: the Rx path, the Tx path, and the validation logic.
Both the Rx path and Tx could only deal with a single fragment per
packet. The Tx path is extended with a new function called
pkt_nb_frags() that can be used to retrieve the number of fragments a
packet will consume. We then create these many fragments in a loop and
fill the N-1 first ones to the max size limit to use the buffer space
efficiently, and the Nth one with whatever data that is left. This
goes on until we have filled in at the most BATCH_SIZE worth of
descriptors and fragments. If we detect that the next packet would
lead to BATCH_SIZE number of fragments sent being exceeded, we do not
send this packet and finish the batch. This packet is instead sent in
the next iteration of BATCH_SIZE fragments.
For Rx, we loop over all fragments we receive as usual, but for every
descriptor that we receive we call a new validation function called
is_frag_valid() to validate the consistency of this fragment. The code
then checks if the packet continues in the next frame. If so, it loops
over the next packet and performs the same validation. once we have
received the last fragment of the packet we also call the function
is_pkt_valid() to validate the packet as a whole. If we get to the end
of the batch and we are not at the end of the current packet, we back
out the partial packet and end the loop. Once we get into the receive
loop next time, we start over from the beginning of that packet. This
so the code becomes simpler at the cost of some performance.
The validation function is_frag_valid() checks that the sequence and
packet numbers are correct at the start and end of each fragment.

It can be useful for the user to know the reason behind a dropped packet.
Introduce new counters which track drops on the receive path caused by:
1. rx ring being full
2. fill ring being empty
Also, on the tx path introduce a counter which tracks the number of times
we attempt pull from the tx ring when it is empty.

This patch adds a 'flags' field to the umem_config and umem_reg structs.
This will allow for more options to be added for configuring umems.
The first use for the flags field is to add a flag for unaligned chunks
mode. These flags can either be user-provided or filled with a default.
Since we change the size of the xsk_umem_config struct, we need to version
the ABI. This patch includes the ABI versioning for xsk_umem__create. The
Makefile was also updated to handle multiple function versions in
check-abi.

This commit adds support for the new need_wakeup flag in AF_XDP. The
xsk_socket__create function is updated to handle this and a new
function is introduced called xsk_ring_prod__needs_wakeup(). This
function can be used by the application to check if Rx and/or Tx
processing needs to be explicitly woken up.

Make it possible for the application to determine whether the AF_XDP
socket is running in zero-copy mode. To achieve this, add a new
getsockopt option XDP_OPTIONS that returns flags. The only flag
supported for now is the zero-copy mode indicator.

This commit adds AF_XDP support to libbpf. The main reason for this is
to facilitate writing applications that use AF_XDP by offering
higher-level APIs that hide many of the details of the AF_XDP
uapi. This is in the same vein as libbpf facilitates XDP adoption by
offering easy-to-use higher level interfaces of XDP
functionality. Hopefully this will facilitate adoption of AF_XDP, make
applications using it simpler and smaller, and finally also make it
possible for applications to benefit from optimizations in the AF_XDP
user space access code. Previously, people just copied and pasted the
code from the sample application into their application, which is not
desirable.
The interface is composed of two parts:
* Low-level access interface to the four rings and the packet
* High-level control plane interface for creating and setting
up umems and af_xdp sockets as well as a simple XDP program.
