[PATCH net-next v6 3/3] net: tun: track dropped skb via kfree_skb_reason()
From: Dongli Zhang
Date: Fri Mar 04 2022 - 09:56:36 EST
The TUN can be used as vhost-net backend. E.g, the tun_net_xmit() is the
interface to forward the skb from TUN to vhost-net/virtio-net.
However, there are many "goto drop" in the TUN driver. Therefore, the
kfree_skb_reason() is involved at each "goto drop" to help userspace
ftrace/ebpf to track the reason for the loss of packets.
The below reasons are introduced:
- SKB_DROP_REASON_DEV_READY
- SKB_DROP_REASON_NOMEM
- SKB_DROP_REASON_HDR_TRUNC
- SKB_DROP_REASON_TAP_FILTER
- SKB_DROP_REASON_TAP_TXFILTER

Changed since v1:
- revise the reason name
Changed since v2:
- declare drop_reason as type "enum skb_drop_reason"
Changed since v3:
- rename to TAP_FILTER and TAP_TXFILTER
- honor reverse xmas tree style declaration for 'drop_reason' in
tun_net_xmit()
Changed since v4:
- expand comment on DEV_READY
- change SKB_TRIM to NOMEM
- chnage SKB_PULL to HDR_TRUNC
