* tcp: Unify spliced and non-spliced connection tablesDavid Gibson2022-11-251-0/+6
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently spliced and non-spliced connections are stored in completely separate tables, so there are completely independent limits on the number of spliced and non-spliced connections. This is a bit counter-intuitive. More importantly, the fact that the tables are separate prevents us from unifying some other logic between the two cases. So, merge these two tables into one, using the 'c.spliced' common field to distinguish between them when necessary. For now we keep a common limit of 128k connections, whether they're spliced or non-spliced, which means we save memory overall. If necessary we could increase this to a 256k or higher total, which would cost memory but give some more flexibility. For now, the code paths which need to step through all extant connections are still separate for the two cases, just skipping over entries which aren't for them. We'll improve that in later patches.

* tcp: Add connection union typeDavid Gibson2022-11-251-0/+30
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | Currently, the tables for spliced and non-spliced connections are entirely separate, with different types in different arrays. We want to unify them. As a first step, create a union type which can represent either a spliced or non-spliced connection. For them to be distinguishable, the individual types need to have a common header added, with a bit indicating which type this structure is. This comes at the cost of increasing the size of tcp_tap_conn to over one (64 byte) cacheline. This isn't ideal, but it makes things simpler for now and we'll re-optimize this later.

* tcp: Move connection state structures into a shared headerDavid Gibson2022-11-251-0/+168
Currently spliced and non-spliced connections use completely independent tracking structures. We want to unify these, so as a preliminary step move the definitions for both variants into a new tcp_conn.h header, shared by tcp.c and tcp_splice.c. This requires renaming some #defines with the same name but different meanings between the two cases. In the process we correct some places that are slightly out of sync between the comments and the code for various event bit names.
