Existing 'bpf_skb_get_tunnel_key' extracts various tunnel parameters
(id, ttl, tos, local and remote) but does not expose ip_tunnel_info's
tun_flags to the BPF program.
It makes sense to expose tun_flags to the BPF program.
Assume for example multiple GRE tunnels maintained on a single GRE
interface in collect_md mode. The program expects origins to initiate
over GRE, however different origins use different GRE characteristics
(e.g. some prefer to use GRE checksum, some do not; some pass a GRE key,
some do not, etc..).
A BPF program getting tun_flags can therefore remember the relevant
flags (e.g. TUNNEL_CSUM, TUNNEL_SEQ...) for each initiating remote. In
the reply path, the program can use 'bpf_skb_set_tunnel_key' in order
to correctly reply to the remote, using similar characteristics, based
on the stored tunnel flags.
Introduce BPF_F_TUNINFO_FLAGS flag for bpf_skb_get_tunnel_key. If
specified, 'bpf_tunnel_key->tunnel_flags' is set with the tun_flags.
Decided to use the existing unused 'tunnel_ext' as the storage for the
'tunnel_flags' in order to avoid changing bpf_tunnel_key's layout.
Also, the following has been considered during the design:
1. Convert the "interesting" internal TUNNEL_xxx flags back to BPF_F_yyy
and place into the new 'tunnel_flags' field. This has 2 drawbacks:
- The BPF_F_yyy flags are from *set_tunnel_key* enumeration space,
e.g. BPF_F_ZERO_CSUM_TX. It is awkward that it is "returned" into
tunnel_flags from a *get_tunnel_key* call.
- Not all "interesting" TUNNEL_xxx flags can be mapped to existing
BPF_F_yyy flags, and it doesn't make sense to create new BPF_F_yyy
flags just for purposes of the returned tunnel_flags.
2. Place key.tun_flags into 'tunnel_flags' but mask them, keeping only
"interesting" flags. That's ok, but the drawback is that what's
"interesting" for my usecase might be limiting for other usecases.
Therefore I decided to expose what's in key.tun_flags *as is*, which seems
most flexible. The BPF user can just choose to ignore bits he's not
interested in. The TUNNEL_xxx are also UAPI, so no harm exposing them
back in the get_tunnel_key call.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
