Add per-device MPLS state to supported interfaces. Use the presence of
this state in mpls_route_add to determine that this is a supported
interface.
Use the presence of mpls_dev to drop packets that arrived on an
unsupported interface - previously they were allowed through.

Reobert Shearman noticed that mpls_egress is failing to verify that
the bytes to be examined are in fact present in the packet before
mpls_egress reads those bytes.
As suggested by David Miller reduce this to a single pskb_may_pull
call so that we don't do unnecessary work in the fast path.

According to RFC3032 section 2.4.2 packets with an outgoing
ttl of 0 MUST NOT be forwarded. According to section 2.4.1
an outgoing TTL of 0 comes from an incomming TTL <= 1.
Therefore any packets that is received with a ttl <= 1 should
not have it's ttl decremented and forwarded.

Sparse was generating a lot of warnings mostly from missing annotations
in the code. Add missing annotations and in a few cases tweak the code
for performance by moving work before loops.
This also fixes a problematic ommision of rcu_assign_pointer and
rcu_dereference.
Hopefully with complete rcu annotations any new rcu errors will stick
out like a sore thumb.

If the nla length is less than 2 then the nla data could be accessed
beyond the accessible bounds. So ensure that the nla is big enough to
at least read the via_family before doing so. Replace magic value of
2.

Unlike IPv4 this code notifies on all cases where mpls routes
are added or removed and it never automatically removes routes.
Avoiding both the userspace confusion that is caused by omitting
route updates and the possibility of a flood of netlink traffic
when an interface goes doew.
For now reserved labels are handled automatically and userspace
is not notified.

This change adds two new netlink routing attributes:
RTA_VIA and RTA_NEWDST.
RTA_VIA specifies the specifies the next machine to send a packet to
like RTA_GATEWAY. RTA_VIA differs from RTA_GATEWAY in that it
includes the address family of the address of the next machine to send
a packet to. Currently the MPLS code supports addresses in AF_INET,
AF_INET6 and AF_PACKET. For AF_INET and AF_INET6 the destination mac
address is acquired from the neighbour table. For AF_PACKET the
destination mac_address is specified in the netlink configuration.
I think raw destination mac address support with the family AF_PACKET
will prove useful. There is MPLS-TP which is defined to operate
on machines that do not support internet packets of any flavor. Further
seem to be corner cases where it can be useful. At this point
I don't care much either way.
RTA_NEWDST specifies the destination address to forward the packet
with. MPLS typically changes it's destination address at every hop.
For a swap operation RTA_NEWDST is specified with a length of one label.
For a push operation RTA_NEWDST is specified with two or more labels.
For a pop operation RTA_NEWDST is not specified or equivalently an emtpy
RTAN_NEWDST is specified.
Those new netlink attributes are used to implement handling of rt-netlink
RTM_NEWROUTE, RTM_DELROUTE, and RTM_GETROUTE messages, to maintain the
MPLS label table.
rtm_to_route_config parses a netlink RTM_NEWROUTE or RTM_DELROUTE message,
verify no unhandled attributes or unhandled values are present and sets
up the data structures for mpls_route_add and mpls_route_del.
I did my best to match up with the existing conventions with the caveats
that MPLS addresses are all destination-specific-addresses, and so
don't properly have a scope.

Reading and writing addresses in network byte order in netlink is
traditional and I see no reason to change that. MPLS is interesting
as effectively it has variabely length addresses (the MPLS label
stack). To represent these variable length addresses in netlink
I use a valid MPLS label stack (complete with stop bit).
This achieves two things: a well defined existing format is used,
and the data can be interpreted without looking at it's length.
Not needed to look at the length to decode the variable length
network representation allows existing userspace functions
such as inet_ntop to be used without needed to change their
prototype.

mpls_route_add and mpls_route_del implement the basic logic for adding
and removing Next Hop Label Forwarding Entries from the MPLS input
label map. The addition and subtraction is done in a way that is
consistent with how the existing routing table in Linux are
maintained. Thus all of the work to deal with NLM_F_APPEND,
NLM_F_EXCL, NLM_F_REPLACE, and NLM_F_CREATE.
Cases that are not clearly defined such as changing the interpretation
of the mpls reserved labels is not allowed.
Because it seems like the right thing to do adding an MPLS route without
specifying an input label and allowing the kernel to pick a free label
table entry is supported. The implementation is currently less than optimal
but that can be changed.
As I don't have anything else to test with only ethernet and the loopback
device are the only two device types currently supported for forwarding
MPLS over.

This sysctl gives two benefits. By defaulting the table size to 0
mpls even when compiled in and enabled defaults to not forwarding
any packets. This prevents unpleasant surprises for users.
The other benefit is that as mpls labels are allocated locally a dense
table a small dense label table may be used which saves memory and
is extremely simple and efficient to implement.
This sysctl allows userspace to choose the restrictions on the label
table size userspace applications need to cope with.

This change adds a new Kconfig option MPLS_ROUTING.
The core of this change is the code to look at an mpls packet received
from another machine. Look that packet up in a routing table and
forward the packet on.
Support of MPLS over ATM is not considered or attempted here. This
implemntation follows RFC3032 and implements the MPLS shim header that
can pass over essentially any network.
What RFC3021 refers to as the as the Incoming Label Map (ILM) I call
net->mpls.platform_label[]. What RFC3031 refers to as the Next Label
Hop Forwarding Entry (NHLFE) I call mpls_route. Though calling it the
label fordwarding information base (lfib) might also be valid.
Further the implemntation forwards packets as described in RFC3032.
There is no need and given the original motivation for MPLS a strong
discincentive to have a flexible label forwarding path. In essence
the logic is the topmost label is read, looked up, removed, and
replaced by 0 or more new lables and the sent out the specified
interface to it's next hop.
Quite a few optional features are not implemented here. Among them
are generation of ICMP errors when the TTL is exceeded or the packet
is larger than the next hop MTU (those conditions are detected and the
packets are dropped instead of generating an icmp error). The traffic
class field is always set to 0. The implementation focuses on IP over
MPLS and does not handle egress of other kinds of protocols.
Instead of implementing coordination with the neighbour table and
sorting out how to input next hops in a different address family (for
which there is value). I was lazy and implemented a next hop mac
address instead. The code is simpler and there are flavor of MPLS
such as MPLS-TP where neither an IPv4 nor an IPv6 next hop is
appropriate so a next hop by mac address would need to be implemented
at some point.
Two new definitions AF_MPLS and PF_MPLS are exposed to userspace.
Decoding the mpls header must be done by first byeswapping a 32bit bit
endian word into the local cpu endian and then bit shifting to extract
the pieces. There is no C bit-field that can represent a wire format
mpls header on a little endian machine as the low bits of the 20bit
label wind up in the wrong half of third byte. Therefore internally
everything is deal with in cpu native byte order except when writing
to and reading from a packet.
For management simplicity if a label is configured to forward out
an interface that is down the packet is dropped early. Similarly
if an network interface is removed rt_dev is updated to NULL
(so no reference is preserved) and any packets for that label
are dropped. Keeping the label entries in the kernel allows
the kernel label table to function as the definitive source
of which labels are allocated and which are not.
