c8fd485202 samples: pktgen: new append mode
To configure various complex flows we for sure can create custom
pktgen init scripts, but sometimes thats not that easy.

New "-a" (append) option in all the existing sample scripts allows
to append more "devices" into pktgen threads.

The most straightforward usecases for that are:
- using multiple devices. We have to generate full linerate on
all physical functions (ports) of our multiport device.
- pushing multiple flows (with different packet options)

40f843ee5e samples: pktgen: allow to specify destination IP range (CIDR)
Currently, kernel pktgen has the feature to specify destination
address range for sending packet. (e.g. pgset "dst_min/dst_max")

But on samples, each pktgen script doesn't have any option to achieve this.

This commit adds the feature to specify the destination address range with CIDR.

    -d : ($DEST_IP)   destination IP. CIDR (e.g. 198.18.0.0/15) is also allowed

    # ./pktgen_sample01_simple.sh -6 -d fe80::20/126 -p 3000 -n 4

3cad8f9115 samples: pktgen: fix proc_cmd command result check logic
Currently, proc_cmd is used to dispatch command to 'pg_ctrl', 'pg_thread',
'pg_set'. proc_cmd is designed to check command result with grep the
"Result:", but this might fail since this string is only shown in
'pg_thread' and 'pg_set'.

This commit fixes this logic by grep-ing the "Result:" string only when
the command is not for 'pg_ctrl'.

For clarity of an execution flow, 'errexit' flag has been set.

To cleanup pktgen on exit, trap has been added for EXIT signal.

723d2904a2 samples: pktgen: make variable consistent with option
This commit changes variable names that can cause confusion.

For example, variable DST_MIN is quite confusing since the
keyword 'udp_dst_min' and keyword 'dst_min' is used with pg_ctrl.

On the following commit, 'dst_min' will be used to set destination IP,
and the existing variable name DST_MIN should be changed.

Variable names are matched to the exact keyword used with pg_ctrl.

b24413180f License cleanup: add SPDX GPL-2.0 license identifier to files with no license
Many source files in the tree are missing licensing information, which
makes it harder for compliance tools to determine the correct license.

By default all files without license information are under the default
license of the kernel, which is GPL version 2.

Update the files which contain no license information with the 'GPL-2.0'
SPDX license identifier.  The SPDX identifier is a legally binding
shorthand, which can be used instead of the full boiler plate text.

This patch is based on work done by Thomas Gleixner and Kate Stewart and
Philippe Ombredanne.

How this work was done:

Patches were generated and checked against linux-4.14-rc6 for a subset of
the use cases:
 - file had no licensing information it it.
 - file was a */uapi/* one with no licensing information in it,
 - file was a */uapi/* one with existing licensing information,

Further patches will be generated in subsequent months to fix up cases
where non-standard license headers were used, and references to license
had to be inferred by heuristics based on keywords.

The analysis to determine which SPDX License Identifier to be applied to
a file was done in a spreadsheet of side by side results from of the
output of two independent scanners (ScanCode & Windriver) producing SPDX
tag:value files created by Philippe Ombredanne.  Philippe prepared the
base worksheet, and did an initial spot review of a few 1000 files.

The 4.13 kernel was the starting point of the analysis with 60,537 files
assessed.  Kate Stewart did a file by file comparison of the scanner
results in the spreadsheet to determine which SPDX license identifier(s)
to be applied to the file. She confirmed any determination that was not
immediately clear with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.

Criteria used to select files for SPDX license identifier tagging was:
 - Files considered eligible had to be source code files.
 - Make and config files were included as candidates if they contained >5
   lines of source
 - File already had some variant of a license header in it (even if <5
   lines).

All documentation files were explicitly excluded.

The following heuristics were used to determine which SPDX license
identifiers to apply.

 - when both scanners couldn't find any license traces, file was
   considered to have no license information in it, and the top level
   COPYING file license applied.

   For non */uapi/* files that summary was:

   SPDX license identifier                            # files
   ---------------------------------------------------|-------
   GPL-2.0                                              11139

   and resulted in the first patch in this series.

   If that file was a */uapi/* path one, it was "GPL-2.0 WITH
   Linux-syscall-note" otherwise it was "GPL-2.0".  Results of that was:

   SPDX license identifier                            # files
   ---------------------------------------------------|-------
   GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note                        930

   and resulted in the second patch in this series.

 - if a file had some form of licensing information in it, and was one
   of the */uapi/* ones, it was denoted with the Linux-syscall-note if
   any GPL family license was found in the file or had no licensing in
   it (per prior point).  Results summary:

   SPDX license identifier                            # files
   ---------------------------------------------------|------
   GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note                       270
   GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note                      169
   ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-2-Clause)    21
   ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause)    17
   LGPL-2.1+ WITH Linux-syscall-note                      15
   GPL-1.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note                       14
   ((GPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR BSD-3-Clause)    5
   LGPL-2.0+ WITH Linux-syscall-note                       4
   LGPL-2.1 WITH Linux-syscall-note                        3
   ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) OR MIT)              3
   ((GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note) AND MIT)             1

   and that resulted in the third patch in this series.

 - when the two scanners agreed on the detected license(s), that became
   the concluded license(s).

 - when there was disagreement between the two scanners (one detected a
   license but the other didn't, or they both detected different
   licenses) a manual inspection of the file occurred.

 - In most cases a manual inspection of the information in the file
   resulted in a clear resolution of the license that should apply (and
   which scanner probably needed to revisit its heuristics).

 - When it was not immediately clear, the license identifier was
   confirmed with lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.

 - If there was any question as to the appropriate license identifier,
   the file was flagged for further research and to be revisited later
   in time.

In total, over 70 hours of logged manual review was done on the
spreadsheet to determine the SPDX license identifiers to apply to the
source files by Kate, Philippe, Thomas and, in some cases, confirmation
by lawyers working with the Linux Foundation.

Kate also obtained a third independent scan of the 4.13 code base from
FOSSology, and compared selected files where the other two scanners
disagreed against that SPDX file, to see if there was new insights.  The
Windriver scanner is based on an older version of FOSSology in part, so
they are related.

Thomas did random spot checks in about 500 files from the spreadsheets
for the uapi headers and agreed with SPDX license identifier in the
files he inspected. For the non-uapi files Thomas did random spot checks
in about 15000 files.

In initial set of patches against 4.14-rc6, 3 files were found to have
copy/paste license identifier errors, and have been fixed to reflect the
correct identifier.

Additionally Philippe spent 10 hours this week doing a detailed manual
inspection and review of the 12,461 patched files from the initial patch
version early this week with:
 - a full scancode scan run, collecting the matched texts, detected
   license ids and scores
 - reviewing anything where there was a license detected (about 500+
   files) to ensure that the applied SPDX license was correct
 - reviewing anything where there was no detection but the patch license
   was not GPL-2.0 WITH Linux-syscall-note to ensure that the applied
   SPDX license was correct

This produced a worksheet with 20 files needing minor correction.  This
worksheet was then exported into 3 different .csv files for the
different types of files to be modified.

These .csv files were then reviewed by Greg.  Thomas wrote a script to
parse the csv files and add the proper SPDX tag to the file, in the
format that the file expected.  This script was further refined by Greg
based on the output to detect more types of files automatically and to
distinguish between header and source .c files (which need different
comment types.)  Finally Greg ran the script using the .csv files to
generate the patches.

which cause the SKB TX queue to be mapped to the CPU running the
kernel thread.  For best scalability people are also encourage to
map NIC IRQ /proc/irq/*/smp_affinity to CPU number.

Usage example with "-t" 4 threads and help:
 ./pktgen_sample02_multiqueue.sh -i eth4 -m 00:1B:21:3C:9D:F8 -t 4

Usage: ./pktgen_sample02_multiqueue.sh [-vx] -i ethX
  -i : ($DEV)       output interface/device (required)
  -s : ($PKT_SIZE)  packet size
  -d : ($DEST_IP)   destination IP
  -m : ($DST_MAC)   destination MAC-addr
  -t : ($THREADS)   threads to start
  -c : ($SKB_CLONE) SKB clones send before alloc new SKB
  -b : ($BURST)     HW level bursting of SKBs
  -v : ($VERBOSE)   verbose
  -x : ($DEBUG)     debug

which demonstrates the a simple use of the helper functions.
Removing pktgen.conf-1-1 as that example should be covered now.

The naming scheme pktgen_sampleNN, where NN is a number, should encourage
reading the samples in a specific order.

Script cause pktgen sending with a single thread and single interface,
and introduce flow variation via random UDP source port.

Usage example and help:
 ./pktgen_sample01_simple.sh -i eth4 -m 00:1B:21:3C:9D:F8 -d 192.168.8.2

Usage: ./pktgen_sample01_simple.sh [-vx] -i ethX
  -i : ($DEV)       output interface/device (required)
  -s : ($PKT_SIZE)  packet size
  -d : ($DEST_IP)   destination IP
  -m : ($DST_MAC)   destination MAC-addr
  -c : ($SKB_CLONE) SKB clones send before alloc new SKB
  -v : ($VERBOSE)   verbose
  -x : ($DEBUG)     debug

b64b0d1e64 pktgen: new pktgen helper functions for samples scripts
Preparing for removing existing samples/pktgen/ scripts, and
replacing these with easier to use samples.

This commit provides two helper shell files, that can
be "included" by shell source'ing. Namely "functions.sh"
and "parameters.sh".

The parameters.sh file support easy and consistant parameter
parsing across the sample scripts.  Usage example is printed on
errors.

The functions.sh file provides, three new shell functions for
configuring the different components of pktgen: pg_ctrl(),
pg_thread() and pg_set().  A slightly improved version of the old
pgset() function is also provided for backwards compat.

The new functions correspond to pktgens different components.
 * pg_ctrl()   control "pgctrl" (/proc/net/pktgen/pgctrl)
 * pg_thread() control the kernel threads and binding to devices
 * pg_set()    control setup of individual devices

db72aba30a samples/pktgen: Use bash as interpreter
These scripts use the non-POSIX 'function' and 'local' keywords so
they won't work with every /bin/sh.  We could drop 'function' as it is
a no-op, but 'local' makes for cleaner scripts.  Require use of bash.

2ad1cdf2ea samples/pktgen: Correct comments about the thread config
They all claimed to be two CPU examples using eth1, eth2 but
that is only true in one case!

Rob Jones pointed out spelling and grammar errors here, which I've
also corrected.

This function is not used and wouldn't do anything useful as
pktgen does not have an 'inject' command.

7c95a9d962 samples/pktgen: Add sample scripts for pktgen facility
These are Robert Olsson's samples which used to be available from
<ftp://robur.slu.se/pub/Linux/net-development/pktgen-testing/examples/>
but currently are not.

Change the documentation to refer to these consistently as 'sample
scripts', matching the directory name used here.
