Subject: [PATCH bpf-next v3 0/5] New BPF helpers to accelerate synproxy

The first patch of this series is an improvement to the existing
syncookie BPF helper. The second patch is a documentation fix.

The third patch allows BPF helpers to accept memory regions of fixed
size without doing runtime size checks.

The two last patches add new functionality that allows XDP to
accelerate iptables synproxy.

v1 of this series [1] used to include a patch that exposed conntrack
lookup to BPF using stable helpers. It was superseded by series [2] by
Kumar Kartikeya Dwivedi, which implements this functionality using
unstable helpers.

The fourth patch adds new helpers to issue and check SYN cookies without
binding to a socket, which is useful in the synproxy scenario.

The fifth patch adds a selftest, which consists of a script, an XDP
program and a userspace control application. The XDP program uses
socketless SYN cookie helpers and queries conntrack status instead of
socket status. The userspace control application allows to tune
parameters of the XDP program. This program also serves as a minimal
example of usage of the new functionality.

The draft of the new functionality was presented on Netdev 0x15 [3].

v2 changes:

Split into two series, submitted bugfixes to bpf, dropped the conntrack
patches, implemented the timestamp cookie in BPF using bpf_loop, dropped
the timestamp cookie patch.

v3 changes:

Moved some patches from bpf to bpf-next, dropped the patch that changed
error codes, split the new helpers into IPv4/IPv6, added verifier
functionality to accept memory regions of fixed size.

Maxim Mikityanskiy (5):
  bpf: Use ipv6_only_sock in bpf_tcp_gen_syncookie
  bpf: Fix documentation of th_len in bpf_tcp_{gen,check}_syncookie
  bpf: Allow helpers to accept pointers with a fixed size
  bpf: Add helpers to issue and check SYN cookies in XDP
  bpf: Add selftests for raw syncookie helpers
