net_device->ndo_set_rx_headroom (introduced in
871b642ade) says
"Setting a negtaive value reset the rx headroom
to the default value".
It seems that the OVS implementation in
3a927bc7cf overlooked this and sets
dev->needed_headroom unconditionally.
This doesn't have an immediate effect, but can mess up later
LL_RESERVED_SPACE calculations, such as done in
net/ipv6/mcast.c:mld_newpack. For reference, this issue was found
from a skb_panic raised there after the length calculations had given
the wrong result.
Note the other current users of this interface
(drivers/net/tun.c:tun_set_headroom and
drivers/net/veth.c:veth_set_rx_headroom) are both checking this
correctly thus need no modification.
Thanks to Ben for some pointers from the crash dumps!

This patch implements bookkeeping support to compute the maximum
headroom for all the devices in each datapath. When said value
changes, the underlying devs are notified via the
ndo_set_rx_headroom method.
This also increases the internal vports xmit performance.

"openvswitch: Remove vport stats" removed the per-vport statistics, in
order to use the netdev's statistics fields.
"openvswitch: Fix ovs_vport_get_stats()" fixed the export of these stats
to user-space, by using the provided netdev_ops to collate them - but ovs
internal devices still use an unallocated dev->tstats field to count
packets, which are no longer exported by this api.
Allocate the dev->tstats field for ovs internal devices, and wire up
ndo_get_stats64 with the original implementation of
ovs_vport_get_stats().
On its own, "openvswitch: Fix ovs_vport_get_stats()" fixes the OOPs,
unmasking a full-on panic on arm64:

This does that.

Currently OVS uses combination of genl and rtnl lock to protect
datapath state. This was done due to networking stack locking.
But this has complicated locking and there are few lock ordering
issues with new tunneling protocols.
Following patch simplifies locking by introducing new ovs mutex
and now this lock is used to protect entire ovs state.

It's possible that packets that are sent on internal devices (from
the OVS perspective) have already traversed the local IP stack.
After they go through the internal device, they will again travel
through the IP stack which may get confused by the presence of
existing information in the skb. The problem can be observed
when switching between namespaces. This clears out that information
to avoid problems but deliberately leaves other metadata alone.
This is to provide maximum flexibility in chaining together OVS
and other Linux components.

Open vSwitch is a multilayer Ethernet switch targeted at virtualized
environments. In addition to supporting a variety of features
expected in a traditional hardware switch, it enables fine-grained
programmatic extension and flow-based control of the network.
This control is useful in a wide variety of applications but is
particularly important in multi-server virtualization deployments,
which are often characterized by highly dynamic endpoints and the need
to maintain logical abstractions for multiple tenants.
The Open vSwitch datapath provides an in-kernel fast path for packet
forwarding. It is complemented by a userspace daemon, ovs-vswitchd,
which is able to accept configuration from a variety of sources and
translate it into packet processing rules.
See http://openvswitch.org for more information and userspace
utilities.
