Martin KaFai Lau 7449197d60 bpf: Keep the (rcv) timestamp behavior for the existing tc-bpf@ingress
The current tc-bpf@ingress reads and writes the __sk_buff->tstamp
as a (rcv) timestamp which currently could either be 0 (not available)
or ktime_get_real().  This patch is to backward compatible with the
(rcv) timestamp expectation at ingress.  If the skb->tstamp has
the delivery_time, the bpf insn rewrite will read 0 for tc-bpf
running at ingress as it is not available.  When writing at ingress,
it will also clear the skb->mono_delivery_time bit.

/* BPF_READ: a = __sk_buff->tstamp */
if (!skb->tc_at_ingress || !skb->mono_delivery_time)
	a = skb->tstamp;
else
	a = 0

/* BPF_WRITE: __sk_buff->tstamp = a */
if (skb->tc_at_ingress)
	skb->mono_delivery_time = 0;
skb->tstamp = a;

[ A note on the BPF_CGROUP_INET_INGRESS which can also access
  skb->tstamp.  At that point, the skb is delivered locally
  and skb_clear_delivery_time() has already been done,
  so the skb->tstamp will only have the (rcv) timestamp. ]

If the tc-bpf@egress writes 0 to skb->tstamp, the skb->mono_delivery_time
has to be cleared also.  It could be done together during
convert_ctx_access().  However, the latter patch will also expose
the skb->mono_delivery_time bit as __sk_buff->delivery_time_type.
Changing the delivery_time_type in the background may surprise
the user, e.g. the 2nd read on __sk_buff->delivery_time_type
may need a READ_ONCE() to avoid compiler optimization.  Thus,
in expecting the needs in the latter patch, this patch does a
check on !skb->tstamp after running the tc-bpf and clears the
skb->mono_delivery_time bit if needed.  The earlier discussion
on v4 [0].

The bpf insn rewrite requires the skb's mono_delivery_time bit and
tc_at_ingress bit.  They are moved up in sk_buff so that bpf rewrite
can be done at a fixed offset.  tc_skip_classify is moved together with
tc_at_ingress.  To get one bit for mono_delivery_time, csum_not_inet is
moved down and this bit is currently used by sctp.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
