Subject: [PATCH net-next v2 5/9] net: openvswitch: add emit_sample action

Add support for a new action: emit_sample.

This action accepts a u32 group id and a variable-length cookie and uses
the psample multicast group to make the packet available for
observability.

The maximum length of the user-defined cookie is set to 16, same as
tc_cookie, to discourage using cookies that will not be offloadable.

Thanks robot!

OK, I think I know what's wrong. There is an optional dependency with
PSAMPLE. Openvswitch module does compile without PSAMPLE but there is a
link error if OPENVSWITCH=y and PSAMPLE=m.

Looking into how to express this in the Kconfig, I'm planning to add the
following to the next version of the series.

Thanks Adrián,

I both agree that should work, and tested with the config at the link above
and found that it does work.

I saw some of the nits Simon raised - I'll add one more below.

I haven't gone through the series thoroughly enough to make a detailed

I think so. For example, it isn't used when the function cannot
possibly error.

see the following cases:

OVS_ACTION_ATTR_HASH
OVS_ACTION_ATTR_TRUNC

As you note, these can consume SKB so also don't bother setting err,
because they will need to return anyway:

OVS_ACTION_ATTR_USERSPACE
OVS_ACTION_ATTR_OUTPUT
OVS_ACTION_ATTR_DROP

And even the following does a weird thing:

OVS_ACTION_ATTR_CT

because sometimes it will consume, and sometimes not.

I think if there isn't a possibility of error being generated (and I
guess from the code I see there isn't), then it shouldn't return a
useless code, since err will be 0 on each iteration of the loop.

Oh, so you meant it's actualy not being set. Now I get you.
Yes. I figured that could change in the future so I left the structure
of returning an error just in case, but it's true that currently the
function cannot fail.

I'll get rid of it.

Hi Adrian,

execute_emit_sample always returns 0, and it seems that err will always
be 0 when the code above is executed. So perhaps the return type
of execute_emit_sample could be changed to void and the code above be
updated not to set err.

Other than that, which I don't feel particularly strongly about,
this looks good to me.
