tunneling: Force selection of an IP ID with GRE.
By default we set the DF bit on tunneled packets because we want to
get path MTU discovery from the underlying network. In turn this
causes Linux to leave the IP ID as 0 because it believes that
fragmentation can never occur. However, with GRE fragmentation is
still possible because we may get a large packet to be encapsulated
and let the local IP stack do fragmentation. As long as packets are
kept in order fragments are not misassociated and everything works fine.
However, if there is reordering in the underlying network then packets
can become corrupted. This forces selection of an IP ID for GRE packets
to avoid misassociation.

Avoid inserting duplicate iptables rules when restarting vswitch.
On startup, some OVS initscripts insert an iptables rule to allow GRE
traffic (because GRE support is an important OVS feature). I noticed that,
each time I restarted OVS, this added another GRE-related rule to the
iptables chain. This is wasteful, because each additional rule increases
the time it takes to process a packet in the IP stack.
This commit avoids the problem by inserting an iptables rule when there
isn't already an appropriate rule. It also avoids inserting an iptables
rule if the iptables policy is ACCEPT, meaning that packets are accepted
by default; in such a case, if the GRE packet would be dropped, it is
because the system administrator made that decision explicitly.

netdev-vport: Don't use ipsec options for either arg in config_equal_ipsec().
Commit
aebf423 (netdev: Add methods to do netdev-specific argument
comparisons.) added a new config_equal_ipsec() function to ignore
IPsec key options when comparing an existing netdev's options with a new
netdev. We only ignored the options for the new netdev configuration,
which works when pulling the existing configuration from the kernel.
Unfortunately, if this is just a re-init of a netdev for which we just
created, this ignoring of the IPsec key options on the new netdev will
cause the check to fail, since the full options actually available in
both netdevs. This commit just ignore all IPsec key options from both
netdevs.

datapath: Use consume_skb() on non-errors.
It's possible to trace kfree_skb() call sites to find out where
packets are getting dropped. Situations where kfree_skb() does
not actually indicate an error adds additional noise, so use
consume_skb() instead to avoid tracing non-errors.

datapath: Further mirror checksum offloading state on old kernels.
Older kernels (those before 2.6.22) rely on implicit assumptions
to determine checksum offloading status. These assumptions tend
to break down when doing switching because it sits in the middle
of the transmit and receive path. Newer kernels deal with this
problem by adding more explicit information about how to checksum.
This replicates that behavior by mirroring the state from newer
kernels in private OVS storage on the kernels that lack it. On
ingress and egress we then map that state onto the appropriate
location for the given kernel and can consistently manipulate it
within OVS. Some of this was already done for the checksum type
but this makes it more robust and expands it to the checksum start
and offset as well.

datapath: Drop set_skb_csum_bits().
Various older kernels have had different bugs with copying checksum
state when a complete copy of a packet is made. However, it is not
actually necessary to make these copies and all occurrences have
now been removed. Therefore, we can also remove the workarounds to
deal with these bugs.

tunneling: Avoid extra copying if expanding headroom.
Currently if we need additional headroom before encapsulating a
packet a clone is made before expanding headroom or if we are
just trying to make the headroom writable then we copy both
the struct sk_buff and the paged data. Both of these are unnecessary
and we end up freeing the original copy. We can remove these copies
and simplify the code by just expanding the linear data area.

datapath: Simplify make_writable().
The current implementation of make_writable() is both overly complex
and unnecessarily aggressive about copying data. We can improve
performance by only making a copy of the data if someone else holds
a reference to the portion of the data that we want to modify. This
means that if a clone is held by the TCP stack for retransmission then
we do not need to make a copy if we are changing the IP header because
it will get regenerated on retransmit anyways. Even when it is necessary
to copy we avoid duplicating struct sk_buff.

datapath: Use strip_vlan() for modify_vlan_tci().
The sematics for setting a vlan tag are to modify the existing tag
if one exists. This can be expressed as removing the existing tag
first and then adding a new one. This simplifies the code by not
requiring two copies of the logic that manipulates non-accelerated
vlans and should not make a performance difference because the vlan
tag is contained in a single cache line.

xenserver: Don't delete pidfile in stop_daemon.
Deleting the pidfile introduces a minor race: if some other process is
starting a daemon at the same time that the init script is stopping the
same daemon, then this could delete the new daemon's pidfile.
This is really a theoretical risk, because no one should be starting and
stopping a single daemon at the same time.

xenserver: Run "depmod" after old modules are removed by "rpm -U".
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging/ScriptletSnippets says that
package upgrade does the following steps:
1. %pretrans of new package
2. %pre of new package
3. (package install)
4. %post of new package
5. %triggerin of other packages (set off by installing new package)
6. %triggerin of new package (if any are true)
7. %triggerun of old package (if it's set off by uninstalling the old
package)
8. %triggerun of other packages (set off by uninstalling old package)
9. %preun of old package
10. (removal of old package)
11. %postun of old package
12. %triggerpostun of old package (if it's set off by uninstalling the
old package)
13. %triggerpostun of other packages (if they're setu off by
uninstalling the old package)
14. %posttrans of new package
We're getting in trouble because the %post runs in step 4 before the
old files are removed in step 10, so depmod is finding the old modules.
This commit switches to running depmod in step 14 instead, after the
old files are removed.

ovsdb-idl: Optimize out transactions that are complete no-ops.
Commit
1cc618c3252 "ovsdb-idl: Fix atomicity of writes that don't change a
column's value" fixed transactions that write the existing value to
some columns, ensuring that those columns still got written to the database
to avoid making the transaction nonatomic in the presence of writes that do
modify part of the database.
However, that commit was too conservative: we can still optimize out a
database transaction that writes *only* existing values to the database,
because if we drop such a transaction then the resulting database is still
one that could result from executing transactions in a serial order. This
commit implements that optimization.
As an example of what this commit does, before this commit, an "ovs-vsctl
set" command that specified the existing value for a column would do a
round-trip to the database to write that existing value. After this
commit, that round-trip would not occur.
Found by observing system startup.
