What is P4?
-----------

The Programming Protocol-independent Packet Processors (P4) is an open source,
domain-specific programming language for specifying data plane behavior.

The current P4 landscape includes an extensive range of deployments, products,
projects and services, etc[9][12]. Two major NIC vendors, Intel[10] and AMD[11]
currently offer P4-native NICs. P4 is currently curated by the Linux
Foundation[9].

On why P4 - see small treatise here:[4].

What is P4TC?
-------------

P4TC is a net-namespace aware P4 implementation over TC; meaning, a P4 program
and its associated objects and state are attachend to a kernel _netns_ structure.
IOW, if we had two programs across netns' or within a netns they have no
visibility to each others objects (unlike for example TC actions whose kinds are
"global" in nature or eBPF maps visavis bpftool).

P4TC builds on top of many years of Linux TC experiences of a netlink control
path interface coupled with a software datapath with an equivalent offloadable
hardware datapath. In this patch series we are focussing only on the s/w
datapath. The s/w and h/w path equivalence that TC provides is relevant
for a primary use case of P4 where some (currently) large consumers of NICs
provide vendors their datapath specs in P4. In such a case one could generate
specified datapaths in s/w and test/validate the requirements before hardware
acquisition.

Unlike other approaches like TC Flower which require kernel and user space
changes when new datapath objects like packet headers are introduced P4TC, with
these patches, provides _kernel and user space code change independence_.
Meaning:
A P4 program describes headers, parsers, etc alongside the datapath processing;
the compiler uses the P4 program as input and generates several artifacts which
are then loaded into the kernel to manifest the intended datapath. In addition
to the generated datapath, control path constructs are generated. The process is
described further below in "P4TC Workflow".

There have been many discussions and meetings since within the community since
about 2015 in regards to P4 over TC[2] and we are finally proving (if the drama
ends soon) to the naysayers that we do get stuff done!

A lot more of the P4TC motivation is captured at:
https://github.com/p4tc-dev/docs/blob/main/why-p4tc.md

__P4TC Architecture__

The current architecture was described at netdevconf 0x17[14] and if you prefer
academic conference papers, a short paper is available here[15].

There are 4 parts:

1) A Template CRUD provisioning API for manifesting a P4 program and its
associated objects in the kernel. The template provisioning API uses netlink.
See patch description further down..

2) A Runtime CRUD+ API code which is used for controlling the different runtime
behavior of the P4 objects. The runtime API uses netlink. See notes further
down. See patch description further down..

3) P4 objects and their control interfaces: tables, actions, externs, etc.
Any object that requires control plane interaction resides in the TC domain
and is subject to the runtime API.  The intended goal is to make use of the
tc semantics of skip_sw/hw to target P4 program objects either in s/w or h/w.

4) S/W Datapath code hooks. The s/w datapath is eBPF based and is generated
by a compiler based on the P4 spec. When accessing any P4 object that requires
control plane interfaces, the eBPF code accesses the P4TC side from #3 above
using kfuncs.

The generated eBPF code is derived from [13] with enhancements and fixes to meet
our requirements (see "Restating Our Requirements" further below).

__P4TC Workflow__

The workflow is as follows:

  1) A developer writes a P4 program, "myprog"

  2) Compiles it using the P4C compiler[8]. The compiler generates 3 outputs:
     a) A shell script which form template definitions for the different P4
     objects "myprog" utilizes (tables, externs, actions etc).
     b) the parser and the rest of the datapath are generated as eBPF and need
     to be compiled into binaries. At the moment the parser and the main control
     block are generated as separate eBPF program but this could change in
     the future (without affecting any kernel code).
     c) A json introspection file used for the control plane (by iproute2/tc).

  3) At this point the artifacts from #2 could be handed to an operator.
     Either the operator is handed an ebpf binary or source which they compile
     at this point.
     The operator executes the shell script(s) to manifest the functional
     "myprog" into the kernel.

  4) The operator instantiates "myprog" pipeline via the tc P4 filter
     to ingress/egress (depending on P4 arch) of one or more netdevs/ports
     (illustrated below as "block 22"). Note the tc filter here is used
     to manage the P4 program pipeline which may include pieces in h/w,
     tc(eBPF) and XDP(eBPF).

     Several ways to instantiate:

     Example1: parser is an action:
       "tc filter add block 22 ingress protocol all prio 10 p4 pname myprog \
        action bpf obj $PARSER.o section p4parser/tc-ingress \
        action bpf obj $PROGNAME.o section p4prog/tc"

     Example2: parser explicitly bound and rest of dpath as an action:
       "tc filter add block 22 ingress protocol all prio 10 p4 pname myprog \
        prog tc obj $PARSER.o section p4parser/tc-ingress \
        action bpf obj $PROGNAME.o section p4prog/tc"

     Example3: parser is at XDP, rest of dpath as an action:
       "tc filter add block 22 ingress protocol all prio 10 p4 pname myprog \
        prog type xdp obj $PARSER.o section p4parser/xdp-ingress \
	pinned_link /path/to/xdp-prog-link \
        action bpf obj $PROGNAME.o section p4prog/tc"

     Example4: parser+prog at XDP:
       "tc filter add block 22 ingress protocol all prio 10 p4 pname myprog \
        prog type xdp obj $PROGNAME.o section p4prog/xdp \
	pinned_link /path/to/xdp-prog-link"

See individual patches for more examples tc vs xdp etc. Also see section on
"challenges" (further below on this cover letter).

Once "myprog" P4 program is instantiated one can start updating table entries
and/or creating actions at runtime.
Example, creating an entry matched with a dstAddr 10.0.1.2/32 in myprog's table
named "mytable" which  redirect to eno1:

  tc p4ctrl create myprog/table/mytable dstAddr 10.0.1.2/32 \
    action send_to_port param port eno1

__P4TC Runtime Control Path__

The control interface builds on past experience and tries to get things
right from the beginning (example filtering is separated from depending
on existing object TLVs and made generic); also the code is written in
such a way it is mostly lockless.

The P4TC control interface, using netlink, provides what we call a CRUDPS
abstraction which stands for: Create, Read(get), Update, Delete, Subscribe,
Publish.  From a high level PoV the following describes a conformant high level
API (both on netlink data model and code level):

	Create(</path/to/object, DATA>+)
	Read(</path/to/object>, [optional filter])
	Update(</path/to/object>, DATA>+)
	Delete(</path/to/object>, [optional filter])
	Subscribe(</path/to/object>, [optional filter])

Note, we _dont_ treat "dump" or "flush" as speacial. If "path/to/object" points
to a table then a "Delete" implies "flush" and a "Read" implies dump but if
it points to an entry (by specifying a key) then "Delete" implies deleting
and entry and "Read" implies reading that single entry. It should be noted that
both "Delete" and "Read" take an optional filter parameter. The filter can
define further refinements to what the control plane wants read or deleted.
"Subscribe" uses built in netlink event management. It, as well, takes a filter
which can further refine what events get generated to the control plane (taken
out of this patchset, to be re-added with consideration of [16]).

Lets show some samples:

..create an entry
  tc p4ctrl create myprog/table/mytable \
   dstAddr 10.0.1.2/32 action send_to_port param port eno1

..Batch create entries
  tc p4ctrl create myprog/table/mytable \
  entry dstAddr 10.1.1.2/32  action send_to_port param port eno1 \
  entry dstAddr 10.1.10.2/32  action send_to_port param port eno10 \
  entry dstAddr 10.0.2.2/32  action send_to_port param port eno2

..Get an entry (note "read" is interchangeably used as "get" which is a common
		semantic in tc):
  tc p4ctrl read myprog/table/mytable \
   dstAddr 10.0.2.2/32

..dump mytable
  tc p4ctrl read myprog/table/mytable

..dump mytable for all entries whose key fits within 10.1.0.0/16
  tc p4ctrl read myprog/table/mytable \
  filter key/myprog/mytable/dstAddr = 10.1.0.0/16

..dump all mytable entries which have an action send_to_port with param "eno1"
  tc p4ctrl get myprog/table/mytable \
  filter param/act/myprog/send_to_port/port = "eno1"

The filter expression is powerful, f.e you could say:

  tc p4ctrl get myprog/table/mytable \
  filter param/act/myprog/send_to_port/port = "eno1" && \
         key/myprog/mytable/dstAddr = 10.1.0.0/16

It also works on built in metadata, example in the following case dumping
entries from mytable that have seen activity in the last 10 secs:
  tc p4ctrl get myprog/table/mytable \
  filter msecs_since < 10000

Delete follows the same syntax as get/read, so for sake of brevity we won't
show more example than how to flush mytable:

  tc p4ctrl delete myprog/table/mytable

Mystery question: How do we achieve iproute2-kernel independence and
how does "tc p4ctrl" as a cli know how to program the kernel given an
arbitrary command line as shown above? Answer(s): It queries the
compiler generated json file in #2c above. The json file has enough details to
figure out that we have a program called "myprog" which has a table "mytable"
that has a key name "dstAddr" which happens to be type ipv4 address prefix. The
json file also provides details to show that the table "mytable" supports an
action called "send_to_port" which accepts a parameter "port" of type netdev
(see the types patch for all supported P4 data types). All P4 components have
names, IDs, and types - so this makes it very easy to map into netlink.
Once user space tc/p4ctrl validates the human command input, it creates
standard binary netlink structures (TLVs etc) which are sent to the kernel.
See the runtime table entry patch for more details.

__P4TC Datapath__

The P4TC s/w datapath execution is generated in eBPF. Any objects that require
control interfacing reside in the "P4TC domain" and are controlled via netlink
as described above. Per packet execution and state and even objects that do not
require control interfacing (like the P4 parser) are generated as eBPF.

A packet arriving on ingress of any of the ports on block 22 will first be
exercised via the (generated eBPF) parser component to extract the headers (the
ip destination address in labelled "dstAddr" above).
The datapath then proceeds to use "dstAddr", table ID and pipeline ID
as a key to do a lookup in myprog's "mytable" which returns the action params
which are then used to execute the action in the eBPF datapath (eventually
sending out packets to eno1).
On a table miss, mytable's default miss action (not described) is executed.

__Description of Patches__

P4TC is designed to have no impact on the core code for other users of the
kernel. IOW, you either can compile it out (or even compile it in and if you
dont use it) then there should be no impact on your workload performance or
functionality.

We do make small kernel changes (only on tc code, and not intrusive at all in
the first 5 patches). Patch #1 adds infrastructure for P4 actions that can
be created on as need basis for the P4 program requirement.  This patch makes
a small incision into act_api which shouldn't affect the performance (or
functionality) of the existing actions. Patches 2-4 are minimalist enablers for
P4TC and have no effect the classical tc action.
Patch 5 adds infrastructure support for preallocation of dynamic actions.

The core P4TC code implements several P4 objects.

1) Patch #6 introduces P4 data types which are consumed by the rest of the code
2) Patch #7 introduces the templating API. i.e CRUD commands for templates
3) Patch #8 introduces the concept of templating Pipelines. i.e CRUD commands
   for P4 pipelines.
4) Patch #9 introduces the action templates and associated CRUD commands.
5) Patch #10 introduce the action runtime infrastructure.
6) Patch #11 introduces the concept of P4 table templates and associated
   CRUD commands for tables.
7) Patch #12 introduces runtime table entry infra and associated CU commands.
8) Patch #13 introduces runtime table entry infra and associated RD commands.
9) Patch #14 introduces interaction of eBPF to P4TC tables via kfunc.
10) Patch #15 introduces the TC classifier P4 used at runtime.

Note, to have the minimal viable implementation we need to have extern patch(es)
on top of these. There are a few more patches (2-5) not in this patchset that
deal with P4 Extern objects. So consider this patchset to be "part 1"; "part2"
will come later. Now if we could only push the trivial patches 1-5... then we
can fit all in the max allowed 15.

__Testing__

Speaking of testing - we have ~300 tdc test cases. This number is growing as
we are adjusting to accommodate for eBPF.
These tests are run on our CICD system on pull requests and after commits are
approved. The CICD does a lot of other tests (more since v2, thanks to Simon's
input)including:
checkpatch, sparse, smatch, coccinelle, 32 bit and 64 bit builds tested on both
X86, ARM 64 and emulated BE via qemu s390. We trigger performance testing in the
CICD to catch performance regressions (currently only on the control path, but
in the future for the datapath).
Syzkaller runs 24/7 on dedicated hardware, originally we focussed only on memory
sanitizer but recently added support for concurrency sanitizer.
Before main releases we ensure each patch will compile on its own to help in
git bisect and run the xmas tree tool. We eventually put the code via coverity.

In addition we are working on a tool that will take a P4 program, run it through
the compiler, and generate permutations of traffic patterns via symbolic
execution that will test both positive and negative datapath code paths. The
test generator tool is still work in progress and will be generated by the P4
compiler.
Note: We have other code that test parallelization etc which we are trying to
find a fit for in the kernel tree's testing infra.

__Restating Our Requirements__

Given this code is not intrusive at all, it is amazing the kind of noise these
patches have generated;-> We would like to emphasize that _we see eBPF as
infrastructure tooling available to us and not the end goal_. Please help us
with technical input on for example how we can do better kfuncs, etc. If you
want to critique, then our requirements should be your guide and please be
considerate that this is about P4, not eBPF. IOW:
We would appreciate technical commentary instead of bikeshedding on how _you_
would have implemented this probably with more eBPF. Moreover, it is sad to
see there was zero input from anyone in the eBPF world for 7 RFC postings.
If i am ranting here is because we have spent over a year now on this topic - we
have taken the initial input and have given you eBPF. So lets make progress
please.

The initial release was presented in October 2022[20] and RFC in January/2023
had a "scriptable" datapath (the idea built on the u32 classifier[17] and pedit
action[18] approach). Post RFC V1, we made changes to fit the feedback to
integrate eBPF to replace the "scriptable" software datapath. On our part, the
goal for the change was to meet folks in the middle as a compromise.
No regrets on the journey since after all the effort because we ended getting
XDP which was not in the original picture. Some of our efforts are captured
at [1][3] and in the patch history.

In this section we review the original scriptable version against the current
implementation which uses eBPF and in the process re-enumerate our requirements.

To be very clear: Our intention for P4TC is to target _the TC crowd_.
Essentially developers and ops people already familiar and deploying TC based
infra.
More importantly the original intent for P4TC was to enable _ops folks_ more
than devs (given code is being generated and doesn't need humans to write it).

With TC, we gain the whole "familiar" package of match-action pipeline
abstraction++, meaning from the control plane(see discussion above) all the
way to the tooling infra, i.e iproute2/tc cli, netlink infra interface
(request/response, event subscribe/multicast-publish, congestion control etc),
s/w and h/w symbiosis, the autonomous kernel control, etc.
The main advantage over vendor specific implementations(which is the current
alternative) is: with P4TC we have a singular vendor-neutral interface via the
kernel using well understood mechanisms that have gained learnings from
deployment experience.

So lets list some of these requirements and compare whether moving to eBPF
affected us or gave us an advantage.

0) Understood Control Plane semantics

This requirement is unaffected.
The control plane remains as netlink and therefore we get the classical
multi-user CRUD+Publish/subscribe APIs built in.

1) Must support SW/HW equivalence

This requirement is unaffected. The control plane is netlink. Any semantics to
select between sw and hw via skip_sw/hw semantics is maintained.

2) Supporting expressibility of the universe set of P4 progs

It is a must to support 100% of all possible P4 programs. In the past the eBPF
verifier, for example in [13], had to be worked around and even then there are
cases where we couldnt avoid path explosion when branching is involved and
failed to run. So we were skeptical about using eBPF to begin with.
Kfuncs changed our minds. Note, there are still challenges running all
potential P4 programs at the XDP level - but the pipeline could be split
between XDP and TC in such cases. The compiler can be told to generate pieces
that run on XDP and other on TC (see examples).
Summary: This requirement is unaffected.

3) Operational usability

By maintaining the TC control plane (even in presence of eBPF datapath)
runtime aspects remain unchanged. So for our target audience of folks
who have deployed tc, including offloads, the comfort zone is unchanged.

There is some loss in operational usability because we now have more knobs:
the extra compilation, loading and syncing of ebpf binaries, etc.
IOW, I can no longer just ship someone a shell script(ascii) in an email to
someone and say "go run this and "myprog" will just work".

4) Operational and development Debuggability

If something goes wrong, the tc craftsperson is now required to have additional
knowledge of eBPF code and process.
Our intent is to compensate this challenge with debug tools that ease the
craftperson's debugging.

5) Opportunity for rapid prototyping of new ideas

This is not exactly a requirement but something that became a useful
feature during the P4TC development phase. When the compiler was lagging behind
in features was to often handcode the template scripts.
Then you would dump back the template from the kernel and do a diff to ensure
the kernel didn't get something wrong. Essentially, this was a nice debug
feature. During development, we wrote scripts that covered a range of P4
architectures(PSA, V1, etc) which required no kernel code changes.

Over time the debug feature morphed into: a) start by handcoding scripts then
b) read it back and then c) generate the P4 code.
It means one could start with the template scripts outside of the constraints
of a P4 architecture spec(PNA/PSA) or even within a P4 architecture then test
some ideas and eventually feed back the concepts to the compiler authors or
modify or create a new P4 architecture and share with the P4 standards folks.

To summarize in presence of eBPF: The debugging idea is probably still alive.
One could dump, with proper tooling(bpftool for example), the loaded eBPF code
and be able to check for differences. But this is not the interesting part.
The concept of going back from whats in the kernel to P4 is a lot more difficult
to implement mostly due to scoping of DSL vs general purpose. It may be lost.
We have been thinking of ways to use BTF and embedding annotations in the eBPF
code and binary but more thought is required and we welcome suggestions.

6) Supporting per namespace program

In P4TC every program and its associated objects have unique IDs which are
generated by the compiler. Multiple or the same P4 program(s) can run
independently in different namespaces alongside their appropriate state and
object instance parameterization (despite name or ID collission).
This requirement is still met (by virtue of keeping P4 program control
objects within the TC domain and attaching to a netns).

__Challenges__

1) Concept of tc block in XDP is _very tedious_ to implement. It would be nice
   if we can use concept there as well, since we expect P4 to work with many
   ports. It will likely work now with patch [19].

2) Right now we are using "packed" construct to enforce alignment in kfunc data
   exchange; but we're wondering if there is potential to use BTF to understand
   parameters and their offsets and encode this information at the compiler
   level.

3) At the moment we are creating a static buffer of 128B to retrieve the action
   parameters. If you have a lot of table entries and individual(non-shared)
   action instances with actions that require very little (or no) param space
   a lot of memory is wasted. There may also be cases where 128B may not be
   enough; (likely this is something we can teach the P4C compiler). If we can
   have dynamic pointers instead for kfunc fixed length parameterization then
   this issue is resolvable.

4) See "Restating Our Requirements" #5.
   We would really appreciate ideas/suggestions, etc.

--------
HISTORY
--------

Changes in Version 10
----------------------
1) A couple of patches from the earlier version were clean enough to submit,
   so we did. This gave us room to split the two largest patches each into
   two. Even though the split is not git-bisactable and really some of it didn't
   make much sense (eg spliting a create, and update in one patch and delete and
   get into another) we made sure each of the split patches compiled
   independently. The idea is to reduce the number of lines of code to review
   and when we get sufficient reviews we will put the splits together again.
   See patch #12 and #13 as well as patches #7 and #8).

2) Add more context in patch 0. Please READ!

3) Added dump/delete filters back to the code - we had taken them out in the
   earlier patches to reduce the amount of code for review - but in retrospect
   we feel they are important enough to push earlier rather than later.


Changes In version 9
---------------------

1) Remove the largest patch (externs) to ease review.

2) Break up action patches into two to ease review bringing down the patches
   that need more scrutiny to 8 (the first 7 are almost trivial).

3) Fixup prefix naming convention to p4tc_xxx for uapi and p4a_xxx for actions
   to provide consistency(Jiri).

4) Silence sparse warning "was not declared. Should it be static?" for kfuncs
   by making them static. TBH, not sure if this is the right solution
   but it makes sparse happy and hopefully someone will comment.

Changes In Version 8
---------------------

1) Fix all the patchwork warnings and improve our ci to catch them in the future

2) Reduce the number of patches to basic max(15)  to ease review.

Changes In Version 7
-------------------------

0) First time removing the RFC tag!

1) Removed XDP cookie. It turns out as was pointed out by Toke(Thanks!) - that
using bpf links was sufficient to protect us from someone replacing or deleting
a eBPF program after it has been bound to a netdev.

2) Add some reviewed-bys from Vlad.

3) Small bug fixes from v6 based on testing for ebpf.

4) Added the counter extern as a sample extern. Illustrating this example because
   it is slightly complex since it is possible to invoke it directly from
   the P4TC domain (in case of direct counters) or from eBPF (indirect counters).
   It is not exactly the most efficient implementation (a reasonable counter impl
   should be per-cpu).

Changes In RFC Version 6
-------------------------

1) Completed integration from scriptable view to eBPF. Completed integration
   of externs integration.

2) Small bug fixes from v5 based on testing.

Changes In RFC Version 5
-------------------------

1) More integration from scriptable view to eBPF. Small bug fixes from last
   integration.

2) More streamlining support of externs via kfunc (create-on-miss, etc)

3) eBPF linking for XDP.

There is more eBPF integration/streamlining coming (we are getting close to
conversion from scriptable domain).

Changes In RFC Version 4
-------------------------

1) More integration from scriptable to eBPF. Small bug fixes.

2) More streamlining support of externs via kfunc (one additional kfunc).

3) Removed per-cpu scratchpad per Toke's suggestion and instead use XDP metadata.

There is more eBPF integration coming. One thing we looked at but is not in this
patchset but should be in the next is use of eBPF link in our loading (see
"challenge #1" further below).

Changes In RFC Version 3
-------------------------

These patches are still in a little bit of flux as we adjust to integrating
eBPF. So there are small constructs that are used in V1 and 2 but no longer
used in this version. We will make a V4 which will remove those.
The changes from V2 are as follows:

1) Feedback we got in V2 is to try stick to one of the two modes. In this version
we are taking one more step and going the path of mode2 vs v2 where we had 2 modes.

2) The P4 Register extern is no longer standalone. Instead, as part of integrating
into eBPF we introduce another kfunc which encapsulates Register as part of the
extern interface.

3) We have improved our CICD to include tools pointed to us by Simon. See
   "Testing" further below. Thanks to Simon for that and other issues he caught.
   Simon, we discussed on issue [7] but decided to keep that log since we think
   it is useful.

4) A lot of small cleanups. Thanks Marcelo. There are two things we need to
   re-discuss though; see: [5], [6].

5) We removed the need for a range of IDs for dynamic actions. Thanks Jakub.

6) Clarify ambiguity caused by smatch in an if(A) else if(B) condition. We are
   guaranteed that either A or B must exist; however, lets make smatch happy.
   Thanks to Simon and Dan Carpenter.

Changes In RFC Version 2
-------------------------

Version 2 is the initial integration of the eBPF datapath.
We took into consideration suggestions provided to use eBPF and put effort into
analyzing eBPF as datapath which involved extensive testing.
We implemented 6 approaches with eBPF and ran performance analysis and presented
our results at the P4 2023 workshop in Santa Clara[see: 1, 3] on each of the 6
vs the scriptable P4TC and concluded that 2 of the approaches are sensible (4 if
you account for XDP or TC separately).

Conclusions from the exercise: We lose the simple operational model we had
prior to integrating eBPF. We do gain performance in most cases when the
datapath is less compute-bound.
For more discussion on our requirements vs journeying the eBPF path please
scroll down to "Restating Our Requirements" and "Challenges".

This patch set presented two modes.
mode1: the parser is entirely based on eBPF - whereas the rest of the
SW datapath stays as _scriptable_ as in Version 1.
mode2: All of the kernel s/w datapath (including parser) is in eBPF.

The key ingredient for eBPF, that we did not have access to in the past, is
kfunc (it made a big difference for us to reconsider eBPF).

In V2 the two modes are mutually exclusive (IOW, you get to choose one
or the other via Kconfig).

In P4 we require to generate new actions "on the fly" based on the
specified P4 action definition. P4 action kinds, like the pipeline
they are attached to, must be per net namespace, as opposed to native
action kinds which are global. For that reason, we chose to create a
separate structure to store P4 actions.

Increase action kind string length from IFNAMSIZ to 64

The new P4 actions, created via templates, will have longer names
of format: "pipeline_name/act_name". IFNAMSIZ is currently 16 and is most
of the times undersized for the above format.
So, to conform to this new format, we increase the maximum name length
and change its definition from IFNAMSIZ to ACTNAMSIZ to account for this extra
string (pipeline name) and the '/' character.

The initialisation of P4TC action instances require access to a struct
p4tc_act (which appears in later patches) to help us to retrieve
information like the P4 action parameters etc. In order to retrieve
struct p4tc_act we need the pipeline name or id and the action name or id.
Also recall that P4TC action IDs are P4 and are net namespace specific and
not global like standard tc actions.
The init callback from tc_action_ops parameters had no way of
supplying us that information. To solve this issue, we decided to create a
new tc_action_ops callback (init_ops), that provies us with the
tc_action_ops  struct which then provides us with the pipeline and action
name. In addition we add a new refcount to struct tc_action_ops called
dyn_ref, which accounts for how many action instances we have of a specific
action.

For P4 actions, we require information from struct tc_action_ops,
specifically the action kind, to find and locate the P4 action information
for the lookup operation.

In P4, actions are assumed to pre exist and have an upper bound number of
instances. Typically if you a table defined with 1M table entries you want to
allocate enough action instances to cover the 1M entries. However, this is a
big waste of memory if the action instances are not in use. So for our case,
we allow the user to specify a minimal amount of actions in the template
and then if more P4 action instances are needed then they will be
added on demand as in the current approach with tc filter-action
relationship.

Add the necessary code to preallocate actions instances for P4
actions.

We add 2 new actions flags:
- TCA_ACT_FLAGS_PREALLOC: Indicates the action instance is a P4 action
  and was preallocated for future use the templating phase of P4TC
- TCA_ACT_FLAGS_UNREFERENCED: Indicates the action instance was
  preallocated and is currently not being referenced by any other object.
  Which means it won't show up in an action instance dump.

Once an action instance is created we don't free it when the last table
entry referring to it is deleted.
Instead we add it to the pool/cache of action instances for that specific
action kind i.e it counts as if it is preallocated.
Preallocated actions can't be deleted by the tc actions runtime commands and a
dump or a get will only show preallocated actions instances which are being
used (i.e TCA_ACT_FLAGS_UNREFERENCED == false).

The preallocated actions will be deleted once the pipeline is deleted
(which will purge the P4 action kind and its instances).

For example, if we were to create a P4 action that preallocates 128
elements and dumped:

$ tc -j p4template get action/myprog/send_nh | jq .

We'd see the following:

[
  {
    "obj": "action template",
    "pname": "myprog",
    "pipeid": 1
  },
  {
    "templates": [
      {
        "aname": "myprog/send_nh",
        "actid": 1,
        "params": [
          {
            "name": "port",
            "type": "dev",
            "id": 1
          }
        ],
        "prealloc": 128
      }
    ]
  }
]

If we try to dump the P4 action instances, we won't see any:

$ tc -j actions ls action myprog/send_nh | jq .

[]

However, if we create a table entry which references this action kind:

$ tc p4ctrl create myprog/table/cb/FDB \
   dstAddr d2:96:91:5d:02:86 action myprog/send_nh \
   param port type dev dummy0

Dumping the action instance will now show this one instance which is
associated with the table entry:

$ tc -j actions ls action myprog/send_nh | jq .

[
  {
    "total acts": 1
  },
  {
    "actions": [
      {
        "order": 0,
        "kind": "myprog/send_nh",
        "index": 1,
        "ref": 1,
        "bind": 1,
        "params": [
          {
            "name": "port",
            "type": "dev",
            "value": "dummy0",
            "id": 1
          }
        ],
        "not_in_hw": true
      }
    ]
  }
]

Introduce abstraction that represents P4 data types.
This also introduces the Kconfig and Makefile which later patches use.
Numeric types could be little, host or big endian definitions. The abstraction
also supports defining:

a) bitstrings using P4 annotations that look like "bit<X>" where X
   is the number of bits defined in a type

b) bitslices such that one can define in P4 as bit<8>[0-3] and
   bit<16>[4-9]. A 4-bit slice from bits 0-3 and a 6-bit slice from bits
   4-9 respectively.

c) speacialized types like dev (which stands for a netdev), key, etc

Each type has a bitsize, a name (for debugging purposes), an ID and
methods/ops. The P4 types will be used by externs, dynamic actions, packet
headers and other parts of P4TC.

Each type has four ops:

- validate_p4t: Which validates if a given value of a specific type
  meets valid boundary conditions.

- create_bitops: Which, given a bitsize, bitstart and bitend allocates and
  returns a mask and a shift value. For example, if we have type
  bit<8>[3-3] meaning bitstart = 3 and bitend = 3, we'll create a mask
  which would only give us the fourth bit of a bit8 value, that is, 0x08.
  Since we are interested in the fourth bit, the bit shift value will be 3.
  This is also useful if an "irregular" bitsize is used, for example,
  bit24. In that case bitstart = 0 and bitend = 23. Shift will be 0 and
  the mask will be 0xFFFFFF00 if the machine is big endian.

- host_read : Which reads the value of a given type and transforms it to
  host order (if needed)

- host_write : Which writes a provided host order value and transforms it
  to the type's native order (if needed)

Add p4tc template API that will serve as infrastructure for all future
template objects (in this set pipeline, table, action, and more later)

This commit is not functional by itself. It needs the subsequent patch
to be of any use. This commit's purpose is to ease review. If something
were to break and you do git bisect to this patch it will not be helpful.
In the next release we are planning to merge the two back again.

The template API infrastructure follows the CRUD (Create, Read/get, Update,
and Delete) commands.

To issue a p4template create command the user will follow the below grammar:

tc p4template create objtype/[objpath] [objid] objparams

To show a more concrete example, to create a new pipeline (pipelines
come in the next commit), the user would issue the following command:

tc p4template create pipeline/aP4proggie pipeid 1 numtables 1 ...

Note that the user may specify an optional ID to the obj, if none is specified,
the kernel will assign one.

The command for update is analogous:

tc p4template update objtype/[objpath] [objid] objparams

Note that for the user may refer to the object by name (in the objpath)
or directly by ID.

Delete is also analogous:

tc p4template delete objtype/[objpath] [objid]

As is get:

tc p4template get objtype/[objpath] [objid]

One can also dump or flush template objects. This will be better
exposed in the object specific commits in this patchset

__Introducing P4 TC Pipeline__

This commit introduces P4 TC pipelines, which emulate the semantics of a
P4 program/pipeline using the TC infrastructure.

This patch relies on the previous one to be functional. They were split
to ease review. In the next release we are planning this and the previous
patch back again.

One can refer to P4 programs/pipelines using their names or their
specific pipeline ids (pipeid)

P4 template CRUD (Create, Read/get, Update and Delete) commands apply on a
pipeline.

As an example, to create a P4 program/pipeline named aP4proggie with a
single table in its pipeline, one would use the following command from user
space tc (as generated by the compiler):

tc p4template create pipeline/aP4proggie numtables 1 pipeid 1

Note that, in the above command, the numtables is set as 1; the default
is 0 because it is feasible to have a P4 program with no tables at all.

The P4 compiler will generate the pipeid, however if none is specified,
the kernel will issue one. Like the following example:

tc p4template create pipeline/aP4proggie numtables 1

To Read pipeline aP4proggie attributes, one would retrieve those details as
follows:

tc p4template get pipeline/[aP4proggie] [pipeid 1]

Note that in the above command one may specify pipeline ID, name or
both.

To Update aP4proggie pipeline from 1 to 10 tables, one would use the
following command:

tc p4template update pipeline/[aP4proggie] [pipeid 1] numtables 10

Note that, in the above command, one could use the P4 program/pipeline
name, id or both to specify which P4 program/pipeline to update.

To Delete a P4 program/pipeline named aP4proggie
with a pipeid of 1, one would use the following command:

tc p4template del pipeline/[aP4proggie] [pipeid 1]

Note that, in the above command, one could use the P4 program/pipeline
name, id or both to specify which P4 program/pipeline to delete

If one wished to dump all the created P4 programs/pipelines, one would
use the following command:

tc p4template get pipeline/

__Pipeline Lifetime__

After Create is issued, one can Read/get, Update and Delete; however
the pipeline can only be put to use after it is "sealed".
To seal a pipeline, one would issue the following command:

tc p4template update pipeline/aP4proggie state ready

After a pipeline is sealed it can be put to use via the TC P4 classifier.
For example:

tc filter add $DEV ingress protocol any prio 6 p4 pname aP4proggie \
    action bpf obj $PARSER.o section prog/tc-parser
    action bpf obj $PROGNAME.o section prog/tc-ingress

Instantiates aP4proggie in the ingress of $DEV. One could also attach it to
a block of ports (example tc block 22) as such:

tc filter add block 22 ingress protocol all prio 6 p4 pname aP4proggie \
    action bpf obj $PARSER.o section prog/tc-parser
    action bpf obj $PROGNAME.o section prog/tc-ingress

We can, add a table entry after the pipeline is sealed
(even before instantiating). Like, for example:

tc p4ctrl create aP4proggie/table/cb/aP4table \
      dstAddr 10.10.10.0/24 srcAddr 192.168.0.0/16 prio 16 \
      action drop

Once the pipeline is instantiated on a device or block it cannot be deleted.
It becomes Read-only from the control plane/user space.
The pipeline can be deleted when there are no longer any users left by
destroying all instances.

This commit allows the control plane to create, update, delete, get, flush
and dump action templates based on P4 action definitions.

Visualize the following action in a P4 program named aP4Proggie:

action send_nh(@tc_type("macaddr) bit<48> dstAddr, @tc_type("dev") bit<8> port)
{
    hdr.ethernet.dstAddr = dstMac;
    send_to_port(port);
}

The above is an action called send_nh which receives as parameters
a bit<48> dstAddr (a mac address) and a bit<8> port (something close to
ifindex).

which is applied on a P4 table match as such:

table mytable {
        key = {
            hdr.ipv4.dstAddr @tc_type("ipv4"): lpm;
        }

        actions = {
            send_nh;
            drop;
            NoAction;
        }

        size = 1024;
}

The mechanics of actions follow the CRUD semantics which are illustrated
in the text below.

___P4 ACTION KIND CREATION___

In this stage we create the p4 action kind by specifying the action name,
its ID, its parameters and the parameter types.
So for the send_nh action, the creation would look something like
this:

tc p4template create action/aP4proggie/send_nh \
  param dstAddr type macaddr id 1 param port type dev id 2

All the template commands (tc p4template) are generated by the
p4c compiler (but of course could be hand coded by humans).

Also note that an action name has to specify the program name since
P4 actions are unique to a program.  As an example, the
above command creates an action template that is bounded to
pipeline/program named "aP4proggie".

Note2: In P4, actions are assumed to pre-exist and have an upper bound
number of instances. Typically, if you have a max of 1024 "mytable" table
entries you want to allocate enough action instances to cover the 1024
entries. However, this is a big waste of memory when we have low table
occupancy. We pick a middle ground by providing pre-allocation control
via attribute "num_prealloc".
The compiler generated template does not specify it and by default we
preallocate 16 entries. The user can override this value by editing the
generated text, for example to change the number to 128 as such:

tc p4template create action/aP4proggie/send_nh num_prealloc 128 \
  param dstAddr type macaddr id 1 param port type dev id 2

When all preallocated action instances are exhausted (used in table
entries) then the behavior switches to the current tc action approach i.e
for every table entry created a new action instance is dynamically
allocated if no "index" attribute is specified. Once an instance is created it
is added to the pool and never freed.

Note, Current tc action behavior is maintained:

a) If the user wishes to preallocate more actions instance later at runtime
to take advantage of a faster table entry creation (by avoiding dynamic
allocation at table entry creation time), they will have to individually
create actions via the control plane using the classical "tc actions"
command.
For example:

tc actions add action aP4proggie/send_nh \
param dstAddr AA:BB:CC:DD:EE:DD param port eth1

The action is added to the pool of action aP4proggie/send_nh instances and
any table entry creation will grab it. The parameters specified above will
be replaced when the table entry is created.

b) Sharing of action instances works the same way (i.e you could autobind
to any action instance in a table entry creation by specifying the action
"index".

___ACTION KIND ACTIVATION___

Once we provided all the necessary information for the new p4 action,
we can go to the final stage: action activation. In this template stage,
we activate the p4 action and make it available for instantiation.
To activate the action template, we issue the following command:

tc p4template update action/aP4proggie/send_nh state active

___OTHER CONTROL COMMANDS___

The lifetime of the p4 action is tied to its pipeline
(see earlier patches). As with all pipeline components, write operations to
action templates (i.e action kinds), such as create, update and delete, can only
be executed if the pipeline is not sealed. Read/get can be issued even after the
pipeline is sealed.

If, after we are done with our action template we want to delete it, we
could issue the following command:

tc p4template del action/aP4proggie/send_nh

Note: If any instance was created for this action (as illustrated
earlier) than this action cannot be deleted, unless you delete all
instances first.

If we had created more action templates and wanted to flush all of the
action templates from pipeline aP4proggie, one would use the following
command:

tc p4template del action/aP4proggie/

After creating or updating a p4 actions, if one wishes to verify that
the p4 action was created correctly, one would use the following
command:

tc p4template get action/aP4proggie/send_nh

The above command will display the relevant data for the action,
such as parameter names, types, etc.

If one wanted to check which action templates were associated to a specific
pipeline, one could use the following command:

tc p4template get action/aP4proggie/

Note that this command will only display the name of these action
templates. To verify their specific details, one should use the get
command, which was previously described.

This commit deals with the runtime part of P4 actions i.e instantiation and
binding of action kinds which are created via templates (see previous
patch).

For illustration we repeat the P4 code snippet from the action template
commit:

action send_nh(@tc_type("macaddr) bit<48> dstAddr, @tc_type("dev") bit<8> port)
{
    hdr.ethernet.dstAddr = dstMac;
    send_to_port(port);
}

table mytable {
        key = {
            hdr.ipv4.dstAddr @tc_type("ipv4"): lpm;
        }

        actions = {
            send_nh;
            drop;
            NoAction;
        }

        size = 1024;
}

One could create a table entry alongside an action instance as follows:

tc p4ctrl create aP4proggie/table/mycontrol/mytable \
   srcAddr 10.10.10.0/24 \
   action send_nh param dstAddr AA:BB:CC:DD:EE:FF param port eth0

As previously stated, we refer to the action by it's "full name"
(pipeline_name/action_name). In the above the pipeline_name is inheritted from
the table patch ("aP4proggie"), so it doesn't need to be specified.
Above we are creating an instance of the send_nh action specifying as parameter
values AA:BB:CC:DD:EE:FF for dstAddr and eth0 for port.

We could also create the action create an instance outside of the table entry
which is then added to the pool of send_nh action kind's instances as follows:

tc actions add action aP4proggie/send_nh \
param dstAddr AA:BB:CC:DD:EE:FF param port eth0

Observe these are _exactly the same semantics_ as what tc today already
provides with a caveat that we have a keyword "param" to precede the
appropriate parameters.

Note: We can create as many instances for action templates as we wish, as
long as we do not exceed the maximum allowed actions - in this specific
case 1024 for table "mytable".

Action sharing still works the same way (as in classical tc). For example
if we know the action index of the previous instance is 100 then we can
bind it to a table entry, for example

tc p4ctrl create aP4proggie/table/mycontrol/mytable \
   srcAddr 11.11.0.0/16 action send_nh index 100

operations and are maintained via templates.
It's important to note that write operations, such as create, update and
delete can only be made if the pipeline is not sealed.

Per the P4 specification, tables prefix their name with the control block
(although this could be overridden by P4 annotations).

As an example, if one were to create a table named table1 in a pipeline named
myprog1, on control block "mycontrol", one would use the following command:

tc p4template create table/myprog1/mycontrol/table1 tblid 1 \
   keysz 32 nummasks 8 tentries 8192

Above says that we are creating a table (table1) attached to pipeline
myprog1 on control block mycontrol. Table1's key size is 32 bits wide
and it can have up to 8 associated masks and 8192 entries. The table id
for table1 is 1. The table id is typically provided by the compiler.

Parameters such as nummasks (number of masks this table may have) and
tentries (maximum number of entries this table may have); either may be
omitted in which case it defaults to 8 masks and 256 entries.

P4 tables have many associated attributes that further refine how these
tables operate. Some attributes per table and others per entry.
Attributes include:

- Timer profiles: The timer profiles for the table entries belonging to the
  table. These profiles contain the supported aging values for the table.
  There are currently 4 different built-in profiles ID0=30s(default),
  ID1=60s, ID2=120s and ID3=180s.
  The user can override the defaults by specifying the number of profiles per
  table. In that case, the kernel will generate the specified number of
  profiles with their aging values abiding by the following rule:
    - Profile ID 0 - 30000ms
    - Profile ID(n) - Profile ID(n - 1) + 30000ms
  So, for example, if the user specified num_timer_profiles as 5, the
  profile IDs and aging values would be the following:
    - Profile ID 0 - 30000ms (default profile)
    - Profile ID 1 - 60000ms
    - Profile ID 2 - 90000ms
    - Profile ID 3 - 120000ms
    - Profile ID 4 - 150000ms
  The values of the different profiles could be changed at runtime.
  The default profile is used if the user specifies an out of range value.

- Match key type: The match type of the table key (exact, LPM, ternary,
  etc).
  Note in P4 a key may constitute multiple (sub)key types, eg matching on
  srcip using a prefix and an exact match for dstip. In such a case it is
  up to the compiler to generalize the key used (For example in this
  case the overall key may endup being LPM or ternary).

- Direct Counter: Table counter instances used directly by the table, when
  specified in the P4 program, there will be one counter per entry.

- Direct Meter: Table meter instances used directly by the table, when
  specified in the P4 program, there will be one meter per entry.

- CRUDXPS Permissions both for specific entries and tables. The permissions
  are applicable to both the control plane and the datapath (see "Table
  Permissions" further below).

- Allowed Actions List. This will be a list of all possible actions that
  can be added to table entries that are added to the specified table.

- Action profiles. When defined in a P4 program, action profiles provide a
  mechanism to share action instances.

- Actions Selectors. When defined in a P4 program can be used to select
  the execution of one or more action instance selected at table lookup
  time by using a hash computation.

- Default hit action. When a default hit action is defined it is used when
  a matched table entry did not define an action. Depending on the P4
  program the default hit action can be updated at runtime (in addition to
  being specified in the template).

- Default miss action. When a default miss action is defined it is used
  when a lookup that table fails.

- Action scope. In addition to actions being annotated as default hit or
  miss they can also be annotated to be either specific to a table of
  globally available to multiple tables within the same P4 program.

- Max entries. This is an upper bound for number of entries a specific
  table allows.

- Num masks. In the case of LPM or ternary matches, this defines the
  maximum allowed masks for that table.

- Timers. When defined in a P4 program, each entry has an associated timer.
  Depending on the programmed timer profile (see above), an entry gets a
  timeout. The timer attribute specifies the behavior of a table entry
  expiration.
  The timer is refreshed every time there's a hit. After an idle period
  the P4 program can define using this attribute, whether it wants to have
  an event generated to user space (and have user space delete the entry), or
  whether it wants the kernel to delete it and send the event to announce
  the deletion. The default in P4TC is to both delete and generate an event.

- per entry "static" vs "dynamic" entry. By default all entries created
  from the control plane are "static" unless otherwise specified. All
  entries added from datapath are "dynamic" unless otherwise specified.
  "Dynamic" entries are subject to deletion when idle (subject to the rules
  specified in "Timers" above).

If one were to retrieve the template details of a table named table1 (before or
after the pipeline is sealed) one would use the following command:

tc -j p4template get table/myprog1/mycontrol/table1 | jq .

If one were to dump all the tables from a pipeline named myprog1, one would
use the following command:

tc p4template get table/myprog1

If one were to update table1 (before the pipeline is sealed) one would use
the following command:

tc p4template update table/myprog1/mycontrol/table1 ....

If one were to delete table1 (before the pipeline is sealed) one would use
the following command:

tc p4template del table/myprog1/mycontrol/table1

If one were to flush all the tables from a pipeline named myprog1, control
block "mycontrol" one would use the following command:

tc p4template del table/myprog1/mycontrol/

___Table Permissions___

Tables can have permissions which apply to all the entries in the specified
table. Permissions are defined for both what the control plane (user space)
as well as the data path are allowed to do.

The permissions field is a 16bit value which will hold CRUDXPS (create,
read, update, delete, execute, publish and subscribe) permissions for
control and data path. Bits 13-7 will have the CRUDXPS values for control
and bits 6-0 will have CRUDXPS values for data path. By default each table
has the following permissions:

CRUD-PS-R--X--

Which means the control plane can perform CRUDPS operations whereas the
data path can only Read and execute on the entries.
The user can override these permissions when creating the table or when
updating.

For example, the following command will create a table which will not allow
the datapath to create, update or delete entries but give full CRUDP
permissions for the control plane.

$TC p4template create table/aP4proggie/cb/tname tblid 1 keysz 64 type lpm \
permissions 0x3D24 ...

Recall that these permissions come in the form of CRUDXPSCRUDXPS, where the
first CRUDXPS block is for control and the last is for data path.

So 0x3D24 is equivalent to CR-D-P--R--X--

If we were to issue a read command on a table (tname):

$TC -j p4template get table/aP4proggie/cb/tname | jq .

The output would be the following:

[
  {
    "obj": "table",
    "pname": "aP4Proggie",
    "pipeid": 22
  },
  {
    "templates": [
      {
        "tblid": 1,
        "tname": "cb/tname",
        "keysz": 64,
        "max_entries": 256,
        "masks": 8,
        "entries": 0,
        "permissions": "CRUD-P--R--X--",
        "table_type": "lpm",
        "acts_list": []
      }
    ]
  }
]

Note, the permissions concept is more powerful than classical const
definition currently taken by P4 which makes everything in a table
read-only.

___Initial Table Entries___

Templating can create initial table entries. For example:

tc p4template create table/myprog/cb/tname \
  entry srcAddr 10.10.10.10/32 dstAddr 1.1.1.0/24 prio 17

In this command we are creating table tname with an entry which will be
present before even the P4 program starts executing. This entry has as its key
IPv4 srcAddr and dstAddr and prio 17.

If one was to read back the entry by issuing the following runtime command:

tc p4ctrl get myprog/table/cb/tname

They would get:
...

    entry priority 17[permissions-RUD-P--R--X--]
    entry key
        srcAddr id:1 size:32b type:ipv4 exact fieldval  10.10.10.10/32
        dstAddr id:2 size:32b type:ipv4 exact fieldval  1.1.1.0/24

We will explain the p4ctrl commands in more details on the next patches.

Before the pipeline is sealed we can only do a p4ctrl get. The write
commands (create, update, delete and flush) and not allowed before
sealing.

___Table Actions List___

P4 tables can be programmed to allow only a specified list of  actions to be
part of match entry on a table. P4 also defines default actions to be executed
when no entries match; we have extended this concept to have a default hit,
which is executed upon matching an entry which has no action associated with it.

We also allow flags for each of the actions in this list that specify if
the action can be added only as a table entry (tableonly), or only as a
default action (defaultonly). If no flags are specified, it is assumed
that the action can be used in both contexts.

Both default hit and default miss are optional.

An example of specifying a default miss action is as follows:

tc p4template update table/myprog/cb/mytable \
    default_miss_action permissions 0x1124 action drop

The above will drop packets if the entry is not found in mytable.
Note the above makes the default action a const. Meaning the control
plane can neither replace it nor delete it.

tc p4template update table/myprog/mytable \
  default_hit_action permissions 0x3004 action ok

Whereas the above allows a default hit action to accept the packet.
The permission 0x3004 (binary 11000000000100) means we have only Create and
Read permissions in the control plane and eXecute permissions in the data
plane. This means, for example, that now we can only delete the default hit
action from the control plane.

Tables are conceptually similar to TCAMs and this implementation could be
labelled as an "algorithmic" TCAM. Tables have a key of a specific size,
maximum number of entries and masks allowed. The basic P4 key types
are supported (exact, LPM, ternary, and ranges) although the kernel side is
oblivious of all that and sees only bit blobs which it masks before a
lookup is performed.

This commit allows users to create and update table _entries_
(templates were described in earlier patch). We'll add get, delete and
dump in the next commit

Note that table entries can only be created once the pipeline template is
sealed.

For example, a user issuing the following command:

tc p4ctrl create myprog/table/cb/tname  \
  dstAddr 10.10.10.0/24 srcAddr 192.168.0.0/16 prio 16 \
  action send param port port1

indicates we are creating a table entry in table "cb/tname" (a table
residing in control block "cb") on a pipeline named "myprog".

User space tc will create a key which has a value of 0x0a0a0a00c0a00000
(10.10.10.0 concatenated with 192.168.0.0) and a mask value of
0xffffff00ffff0000 (/24 concatenated with /16) that will be sent to the
kernel. In addition a priority field of 16 is passed to the kernel as
well as the action definition.
The priority field is needed to disambiguate in case two entries
match. In that case, the kernel will choose the one with lowest priority
number.

If the user wanted to, for example, update our just created entry with
an action, they'd issue the following command:

tc p4ctrl update myprog/table/cb/tname srcAddr 10.10.10.0/24 \
  dstAddr 192.168.0.0/16 prio 16 action send param port port5

In this case, the user needs to specify the pipeline name, the table name,
the key and the priority, so that we can locate the table entry.

__Table Attributes__

Just for context, these are the table attributes (presented in the table
template commit):

- Timer profiles: The timer profiles for the table entries belonging to the
  table. These profiles contain the supported aging values for the table.
  There are currently 4 different built-in profiles ID0=30s(default),
  ID1=60s, ID2=120s and ID3=180s.
  The user can override the defaults by specifying the number of profiles per
  table. In that case, the kernel will generate the specified number of
  profiles with their aging values abiding by the following rule:
    - Profile ID 0 - 30000ms
    - Profile ID(n) - Profile ID(n - 1) + 30000ms
  So, for example, if the user specified num_timer_profiles as 5, the
  profile IDs and aging values would be the following:
    - Profile ID 0 - 30000ms (default profile)
    - Profile ID 1 - 60000ms
    - Profile ID 2 - 90000ms
    - Profile ID 3 - 120000ms
    - Profile ID 4 - 150000ms
  The values of the different profiles could be changed at runtime.
  The default profile is used if the user specifies an out of range value.

- Match key type: The match type of the table key (exact, LPM, ternary,
  etc).
  Note in P4 a key may constitute multiple (sub)key types, eg matching on
  srcip using a prefix and an exact match for dstip. In such a case it is
  up to the compiler to generalize the key used (For example in this
  case the overall key may endup being LPM or ternary).

- Direct Counter: Table counter instances used directly by the table, when
  specified in the P4 program, there will be one counter per entry.

- Direct Meter: Table meter instances used directly by the table, when
  specified in the P4 program, there will be one meter per entry.

- CRUDXPS Permissions both for specific entries and tables. The permissions
  are applicable to both the control plane and the datapath (see "Table
  Permissions" further below).

- Allowed Actions List. This will be a list of all possible actions that
  can be added to table entries that are added to the specified table.

- Action profiles. When defined in a P4 program, action profiles provide a
  mechanism to share action instances.

- Actions Selectors. When defined in a P4 program can be used to select
  the execution of one or more action instance selected at table lookup
  time by using a hash computation.

- Default hit action. When a default hit action is defined it is used when
  a matched table entry did not define an action. Depending on the P4
  program the default hit action can be updated at runtime (in addition to
  being specified in the template).

- Default miss action. When a default miss action is defined it is used
  when a lookup that table fails.

- Action scope. In addition to actions being annotated as default hit or
  miss they can also be annotated to be either specific to a table of
  globally available to multiple tables within the same P4 program.

- Max entries. This is an upper bound for number of entries a specific
  table allows.

- Num masks. In the case of LPM or ternary matches, this defines the
  maximum allowed masks for that table.

- Timers. When defined in a P4 program, each entry has an associated timer.
  Depending on the programmed timer profile (see above), an entry gets a
  timeout. The timer attribute specifies the behavior of a table entry
  expiration.
  The timer is refreshed every time there's a hit. After an idle period
  the P4 program can define using this attribute, whether it wants to have
  an event generated to user space (and have user space delete the entry), or
  whether it wants the kernel to delete it and send the event to announce
  the deletion. The default in P4TC is to both delete and generate an event.

- per entry "static" vs "dynamic" entry. By default all entries created
  from the control plane are "static" unless otherwise specified. All
  entries added from datapath are "dynamic" unless otherwise specified.
  "Dynamic" entries are subject to deletion when idle (subject to the rules
  specified in "Timers" above).

__Table Entry Permissions__

Whereas templates can define the default permissions for tables, runtime has
ability to define table entry permissions as they are added.

To reiterate there are two types of permissions:
 - Table permissions which are a property of the table (think directory in
   file systems). These are set by the template (see earlier patch on table
   template).
 - Table entry permissions which are specific to a table entry (think a
   file in a directory). This patch describes those permissions.

Furthermore in both cases the permissions are split into datapath vs
control path. The template definition can set either one. For example, one
could allow for adding table entries by the datapath in case of PNA
add-on-miss is needed.
By default tables entries have control plane RUD, meaning the control plane
can Read, Update or Delete entries. By default, as well, the control plane
can create new entries unless specified otherwise by the template.

Lets see an example of which creates the table "cb/tname" at template time:

    tc p4template create table/aP4proggie/cb/tname tblid 1 keysz 64 \
      permissions 0x3C24 ...

Above is setting the table tname's permission to be 0x3C24 is equivalent to
CRUD----R--X-- meaning:

The control plane can Create, Read, Update, Delete
The datapath can only Read and Execute table entries.
If one was to dump this table with:

tc -j p4template get table/aP4proggie/cb/tname | jq .

The output would be the following:

[
  {
    "obj": "table",
    "pname": "aP4proggie",
    "pipeid": 22
  },
  {
    "templates": [
      {
        "tblid": 1,
        "tname": "cb/tname",
        "keysz": 64,
        "max_entries": 256,
        "masks": 8,
        "entries": 0,
        "permissions": "CRUD----R--X--",
        "table_type": "exact",
        "acts_list": []
      }
    ]
  }
]

The expressed permissions above are probably the most practical for most
use cases.

__Constant Tables And P4-programmed Defined Entries__

If one wanted to restrict the table to be an equivalent to a "const" then
the permissions would be set to be: -R------R--X-- by the template.

In such a case, typically the P4 program will have some entries defined
(see the famous P4 calculate example). The "initial entries" specified in
the P4 program will have to be added by the template (as generated by the
compiler), as such:

tc p4template create table/aP4proggie/cb/tname \
  entry srcAddr 10.10.10.10/24 dstAddr 1.1.1.0/24 prio 17

This table cannot be updated at runtime. Any attempt to add an entry of a
table which is read-only at runtime will get a "permission denied" response
back from the kernel.

Note: If one was to create an equivalent for PNA add-on-miss feature for
this table, then the template would issue table permissions as:
-R-----CR--X-- PNA doesn't specify whether the datapath can also delete or
update entries, but if it did then more appropriate permissions will be:
-R-----CRUDX--

__Mix And Match of RW vs Constant Entries__
Lets look at other scenarios; lets say the table has CRUD----R--X--
permissions as defined by the template...
At runtime the user could add entries which are "const" - by specifying the
entry's permission as -R------R--X-- example:

tc p4ctrl create aP4proggie/table/cb/tname srcAddr 10.10.10.10/24 \
  dstAddr 1.1.1.0/24 prio 17 permissions 0x1024 action drop

or not specify permissions at all as such:

tc p4ctrl create aP4proggie/table/cb/tname srcAddr 10.10.10.10/24 \
  dstAddr 1.1.1.0/24 prio 17 action drop

in which case the table's permissions defined at template
time(CRUD----R--X--) are assumed; meaning the table entry can be deleted or
updated by the control plane.

__Entries permissions Allowed On A Table Entry Creation At Runtime__

When entries are created without specifying permissions they inherit the
table permissions set by the template.
When an entry is added with expressed permissions it has at most to have
what the template table definition expressed but could ask for less
permission. For example, assuming a table with templated specified
permissions of CR-D----R--X--:
An entry created at runtime with permission of -R------R--X-- is allowed
but an entry with -RUD----R--X-- will be rejected.

This commit allows users to get, delete, flush and dump table _entries_
(templates were described in earlier patch and so were create and update).

If the user wants to, for example, read a table entry from a table
(nh_table) which has as key nh_index (bit32), belongs to pipeline
(routing) and has as its key an nh_index of 1, they'd issue the
following command:

tc p4ctrl get routing/table/Main/nh_table nh_index 1

Which will give us the following output:

$TC p4ctrl get routing/table/Main/nh_table
pipeline:  routing(id 1)
 table: Main/nh_table(id 1)entry priority 64000[permissions -RUD-PS-R--X--]
    entry key
     nh_index id:1 size:32b type:bit32 exact fieldval  1
    entry actions:
	action order 1: routing/Main/set_nh  index 2 ref 1 bind 1
	 params:
	  dmac type macaddr  value: 13:37:13:37:13:37 id 1
	  port type dev  value: port1 id 2

    created by: tc (id 2)
    dynamic false
    created 20338 sec  used 39 sec

Note that, as with create and update, we need to specify the pipeline name,
the table name, the key and the priority, so that we can locate the table
entry. Also, in this case, the entry had an action which has a parameter
dmac (a mac address) and port1 (a net device).

If the user wanted to delete the same table entry, they'd issue the
following command:

tc p4ctrl del routing/table/Main/nh_table nh_index 1

Note that, again, we need to specify the pipeline name, the table
name, the key and the priority, so that we can
locate the table entry.

We can also flush all the table entries from a specific table.
To flush the table entries of table tname ane pipeline ptables,
the user would issue the following command:

tc p4ctrl del routing/table/Main/nh_table

We can also dump all the table entries from a specific table.
To dump the table entries of table tname and pipeline myprog, the user
would issue the following command:

tc p4ctrl get routing/table/Main/nh_table

Which will give the following output (in case we had one entry with
nh_index key value 1):

pipeline:  routing(id 1)
 table: Main/nh_table(id 1)entry priority 64000[permissions -RUD-PS-R--X--]
    entry key
     nh_index id:1 size:32b type:bit32 exact fieldval  1
    entry actions:
	action order 1: routing/Main/set_nh  index 2 ref 1 bind 1
	 params:
	  dmac type macaddr  value: 13:37:13:37:13:37 id 1
	  port type dev  value: port1 id 2

    created by: tc (id 2)
    dynamic false
    created 20338 sec  used 39 sec

	daniel, bpf

We add an initial set of kfuncs to allow interactions from eBPF programs
to the P4TC domain.

- bpf_p4tc_tbl_read: Used to lookup a table entry from a BPF
program installed in TC. To find the table entry we take in an skb, the
pipeline ID, the table ID, a key and a key size.
We use the skb to get the network namespace structure where all the
pipelines are stored. After that we use the pipeline ID and the table
ID, to find the table. We then use the key to search for the entry.
We return an entry on success and NULL on failure.

- xdp_p4tc_tbl_read: Used to lookup a table entry from a BPF
program installed in XDP. To find the table entry we take in an xdp_md,
the pipeline ID, the table ID, a key and a key size.
We use struct xdp_md to get the network namespace structure where all
the pipelines are stored. After that we use the pipeline ID and the table
ID, to find the table. We then use the key to search for the entry.
We return an entry on success and NULL on failure.

- bpf_p4tc_entry_create: Used to create a table entry from a BPF
program installed in TC. To create the table entry we take an skb, the
pipeline ID, the table ID, a key and its size, and an action which will
be associated with the new entry.
We return 0 on success and a negative errno on failure

- xdp_p4tc_entry_create: Used to create a table entry from a BPF
program installed in XDP. To create the table entry we take an xdp_md, the
pipeline ID, the table ID, a key and its size, and an action which will
be associated with the new entry.
We return 0 on success and a negative errno on failure

- bpf_p4tc_entry_create_on_miss: conforms to PNA "add on miss".
First does a lookup using the passed key and upon a miss will add the entry
to the table.
We return 0 on success and a negative errno on failure

- xdp_p4tc_entry_create_on_miss: conforms to PNA "add on miss".
First does a lookup using the passed key and upon a miss will add the entry
to the table.
We return 0 on success and a negative errno on failure

- bpf_p4tc_entry_update: Used to update a table entry from a BPF
program installed in TC. To update the table entry we take an skb, the
pipeline ID, the table ID, a key and its size, and an action which will
be associated with the new entry.
We return 0 on success and a negative errno on failure

- xdp_p4tc_entry_update: Used to update a table entry from a BPF
program installed in XDP. To update the table entry we take an xdp_md, the
pipeline ID, the table ID, a key and its size, and an action which will
be associated with the new entry.
We return 0 on success and a negative errno on failure

- bpf_p4tc_entry_delete: Used to delete a table entry from a BPF
program installed in TC. To delete the table entry we take an skb, the
pipeline ID, the table ID, a key and a key size.
We return 0 on success and a negative errno on failure

- xdp_p4tc_entry_delete: Used to delete a table entry from a BPF
program installed in XDP. To delete the table entry we take an xdp_md, the
pipeline ID, the table ID, a key and a key size.
We return 0 on success and a negative errno on failure

the lifetime of pipeline instances across one or more netdev ports.
Note a pipeline may be instantiated multiple times across one or more tc chains
and different priorities.

Note that part or whole of the P4 pipeline could reside in tc, XDP or even
hardware depending on how the P4 program was compiled.
To use the P4 classifier you must specify a pipeline name that will be
associated to the filter instance, a s/w parser (eBPF) and datapath P4
control block program (eBPF) program. Although this patchset does not deal
with offloads, it is also possible to load the h/w part using this filter.
We will illustrate a few examples further below to clarify. Please treat
the illustrated split as an example - there are probably more pragmatic
approaches to splitting the pipeline; however, regardless of where the different
pieces of the pipeline are placed (tc, XDP, HW) and what each layer will
implement (what part of the pipeline) - these examples are merely showing
what is possible.

The pipeline is assumed to have already been created via a template.

For example, if we were to add a filter to ingress of a group of netdevs
(tc block 22) and associate it to P4 pipeline simple_l3 we could issue the
following command:

tc filter add block 22 parent ffff: protocol all prio 6 p4 pname simple_l3 \
    action bpf obj $PARSER.o ... \
    action bpf obj $PROGNAME.o section prog/tc-ingress

The above uses the classical tc action mechanism in which the first action
runs the P4 parser and if that goes well then the P4 control block is
executed. Note, although not shown above, one could also append the command
line with other traditional tc actions.

In these patches, we also support two types of loadings of the pipeline
programs and differentiate between what gets loaded at say tc vs xdp by using
syntax which specifies location as either "prog type tc obj" or
"prog type xdp obj". There is an ongoing discussion in the P4TC community
biweekly meetings which is likely going to have us add another location
definition "prog type hw" which will specify the hardware object file name
and other related attributes.

An example using tc:

tc filter add block 22 parent ffff: protocol all prio 6 p4 pname simple_l3 \
    prog type tc obj $PARSER.o ... \
    action bpf obj $PROGNAME.o section prog/tc-ingress

For XDP, to illustrate an example:

tc filter add dev $P0 ingress protocol all prio 1 p4 pname simple_l3 \
    prog type xdp obj $PARSER.o section parser/xdp \
    pinned_link /sys/fs/bpf/mylink \
    action bpf obj $PROGNAME.o section prog/tc-ingress

In this case, the parser will be executed in the XDP layer and the rest of
P4 control block as a tc action.

For illustration sake, the hw one looks as follows (please note there's
still a lot of discussions going on in the meetings - the example is here
merely to illustrate the tc filter functionality):

tc filter add block 22 ingress protocol all prio 1 p4 pname simple_l3 \
   prog type hw filename "mypnameprog.o" ... \
   prog type xdp obj $PARSER.o section parser/xdp pinned_link /sys/fs/bpf/mylink \
   action bpf obj $PROGNAME.o section prog/tc-ingress

The theory of operations is as follows:

================================1. PARSING================================

The packet first encounters the parser.
The parser is implemented in ebpf residing either at the TC or XDP
level. The parsed header values are stored in a shared eBPF map.
When the parser runs at XDP level, we load it into XDP using tc filter
command and pin it to a file.

=============================2. ACTIONS=============================

In the above example, the P4 program (minus the parser) is encoded in an
action($PROGNAME.o). It should be noted that classical tc actions
continue to work:
IOW, someone could decide to add a mirred action to mirror all packets
after or before the ebpf action.

tc filter add dev $P0 parent ffff: protocol all prio 6 p4 pname simple_l3 \
    prog type tc obj $PARSER.o section parser/tc-ingress \
    action bpf obj $PROGNAME.o section prog/tc-ingress \
    action mirred egress mirror index 1 dev $P1 \
    action bpf obj $ANOTHERPROG.o section mysect/section-1

It should also be noted that it is feasible to split some of the ingress
datapath into XDP first and more into TC later (as was shown above for
example where the parser runs at XDP level). YMMV.
Regardless of choice of which scheme to use, none of these will affect
UAPI. It will all depend on whether you generate code to load on XDP vs
tc, etc.

My objections from last iterations still stand, and I also added a nak,
so please do not just drop it with new revisions.. from the v10 as you
wrote you added further code but despite the various community feedback
the design still stands as before, therefore:

Also as mentioned earlier I don't think tc should hold references on
XDP programs in here. It doesn't make any sense aside from the fact
that the cls_p4 is also not doing anything with it. This is something
that a user space control plane should be doing i.e. managing a XDP
link on the target device.

We didnt make code changes - but did you read the cover letter and the
extended commentary in this patch's commit log? We should have
mentioned it in the changes log. It did respond to your comments.
There's text that says "the filter manages the lifetime of the
pipeline" - which in the future could include not only tc but XDP but
also the hardware path (in the form of a file that gets loaded). I am
not sure if that message is clear. Your angle being this is layer
violation. In the last discussion i asked you for suggestions and we
went the tcx route, which didnt make sense, and  then you didnt
respond.

This is the same argument about layer violation that you made earlier.
The filter manages the p4 pipeline - i.e it's not just about the ebpf
blob(s) but for example in the future (discussions are still ongoing
with vendors who have P4 NICs) a filter could be loaded to also
specify the location of the hardware blob.
I would be happy with a suggestion that gets us moving forward with
that context in mind.

cheers,
jamal

Ah, so there is a plan to eventually add HW offload support for cls_p4?
Or is this only specifiying a location of a blob through some opaque
cookie value from user space?

> I would be happy with a suggestion that gets us moving forward with
> that context in mind.

My question on the above is mainly what does it bring you to hold a
reference on the XDP program? There is no guarantee that something else
will get loaded onto XDP, and then eventually the cls_p4 is the only
entity holding the reference but w/o 'purpose'. We do have BPF links
and the user space component orchestrating all this needs to create
and pin the BPF link in BPF fs, for example. An artificial reference
on XDP prog feels similar as if you'd hold a reference on an inode
out of tc.. Again, that should be delegated to the control plane you
have running interacting with the compiler which then manages and
loads its artifacts. What if you would also need to set up some
netfilter rules for the SW pipeline, would you then embed this too?

Thanks,
Daniel

Current thought process is it will be something along these lines (the
commit provides more details):

tc filter add block 22 ingress protocol all prio 1 p4 pname simple_l3 \
   prog type hw filename "mypnameprog.o" ... \
   prog type xdp obj $PARSER.o section parser/xdp pinned_link
/sys/fs/bpf/mylink \
   action bpf obj $PROGNAME.o section prog/tc-ingress

These discussions are still ongoing - but that is the current
consensus. Note: we are not pushing any code for that, but hope it
paints the bigger picture....
The idea is the cls p4 owns the lifetime of the pipeline. Installing
the filter instantiates the p4 pipeline "simple_l3" and triggers a lot
of the refcounts to make sure the pipeline and its components stays
alive.
There could be multiple such filters - when someone deletes the last
filter, then it is safe to delete the pipeline.
Essentially the filter manages the lifetime of the pipeline.

Sorry, a slight tangent first:
P4 is self-contained, there are a handful of objects that are defined
by the spec (externs, actions, tables, etc) and we model them in the
patchset, so that part is self-contained. For the extra richness such
as the netfilter example you quoted - based on my many years of
experience deploying SDN - using daemons(sorry if i am reading too
much in what I think you are implying) for control is not the best
option i.e you need all kinds of coordination - for example where do
you store state, what happens when the daemon dies, how do you
graceful restarts etc. Based on that, if i can put things in the
kernel (which is essentially a "perpetual daemon", unless the kernel
crashes) it's a lot simpler to manage as a source of truth especially
when there is not that much info. There is a limit when there are
multiple pieces (to use your netfilter example) because you need
another layer to coordinate things.

Re: the XDP part - our key reason is mostly managerial, in that the
filter is the lifetime manager of the pipeline; and that if i dump
that filter i can see all the details in regards to the pipeline(tc,
XDP and in future hw, etc) in one spot. You are right, the link
pinning is our protection from someone replacing the XDP prog (this
was a tip from Toke in the early days) and the comparison of tc
holding inode is apropos.
There's some history: in the early days we were also using metadata
which comes from the XDP program at the tc layer if more processing
was to be done (and there was extra metadata which told us which XDP
prog produced it which we would vet before trusting the metadata).
Given all the above, we should still be able to hold this info without
necessarily holding the extra refcount and be able to see this detail.
So we can remove the refcounting.

jamal

Subsquent lines here are:
        } else {
                if (strscpy(act_name, "police", IFNAMSIZ) < 0) {
		                                ^^^^^^^^
                        NL_SET_ERR_MSG(extack, "TC action name too long");

I know it won't make a difference in the end but it would be nice to
keep it consistent.

$ pahole -C p4tc_template_common net/sched/p4tc/p4tc_tmpl_api.o
struct p4tc_template_common {
        char                       name[32];             /*     0    32 */
        struct p4tc_template_ops * ops;                  /*    32     8 */
        u32                        p_id;                 /*    40     4 */

'source of truth' for the various attach points or BPF links, yes, but in
this case here it is not, since the source of truth on what is attached
is not in cls_p4 but rather on the XDP link. How do you handle the case
when cls_p4 says something different to what is /actually/ attached? Why
is it not enough to establish some convention in user space, to pin the
link and retrieve/update from there when needed? Like everyone else does.
... even if you consider iproute2 your "control plane" (which I have the
feeling you do)?

>> Re: the XDP part - our key reason is mostly managerial, in that the

This is imho the problematic part which feels like square peg in round
hole, trying to fit this whole lifetime manager of the pipeline into
the cls_p4 filter. We agree to disagree here. Instead of reusing
individual building blocks from user space, this tries to cramp control
plane parts into the kernel for which its not a great fit with what is
build here as-is.

The refcount should definitely be removed, but then again, see the point
above in that it is inconsistent information. Why can't this be done in
user space with some convention in your user space control plane - if you
take iproute2, then why it cannot pin the link in a bpf fs instance and
retrieve it from there?

Ok, Daniel - let's do this so we can move forward. I am getting
exhausted, we've been going at this for a year now. As a compromise: I
will remove the support for XDP altogether from the filter. We will
still reference the XDP program in the CLI and infact load and pin it
that way but the filter will not be adding a refcount in the kernel as
in the posted patch.
