The current codebase makes use of the zero-length array language
extension to the C90 standard, but the preferred mechanism to declare
variable-length types such as these ones is a flexible array member[1][2],
introduced in C99:

struct foo {
        int stuff;
        struct boo array[];
};

By making use of the mechanism above, we will get a compiler warning
in case the flexible array does not occur last in the structure, which
will help us prevent some kind of undefined behavior bugs from being
inadvertently introduced[3] to the codebase from now on.

Also, notice that, dynamic memory allocations won't be affected by
this change:

"Flexible array members have incomplete type, and so the sizeof operator
may not be applied. As a quirk of the original implementation of
zero-length arrays, sizeof evaluates to zero."[1]

sizeof(flexible-array-member) triggers a warning because flexible array
members have incomplete type[1]. There are some instances of code in
which the sizeof operator is being incorrectly/erroneously applied to
zero-length arrays and the result is zero. Such instances may be hiding
some bugs. So, this work (flexible-array member conversions) will also
help to get completely rid of those sorts of issues.

This issue was found with the help of Coccinelle.

All vector drivers now allow a BPF program to be loaded and
associated with the RX socket in the host kernel.

1. The program can be loaded as an extra kernel command line
option to any of the vector drivers.

2. The program can also be loaded as "firmware", using the
ethtool flash option. It is possible to turn this facility
on or off using a command line option.

A simplistic wrapper for generating the BPF firmware for the raw
socket driver out of a tcpdump/libpcap filter expression can be

With the addition of bess support which uses connection
oriented SEQPACKET sockets the vector routines can now
encounter a "remote end closed the connection" scenario.

This adds handling code to detect it in the TX path and
the legacy RX path. There is no way to detect it in the
vector RX path because that can legitimately return 0
even if the remote end has not closed the connection. As
a result the detection is delayed until the first TX
event after the close.

Vector RAW in UML needs to BPF filter its own MAC only
if QDISC_BYPASS has failed. If QDISC_BYPASS is successful, the
frames originated locally are not visible to readers on the
raw socket.

for direct wiring of PWEs to NIC. Allows direct connection of VMs
to host, other VMs and network devices with no switch in use.
    2.1. Raw socket >4 times higher PPS and 10 times higher tcp RX
    than existing pcap based transport (> 4Gbit)
    2.2. New tap transport using socket RX and tap xmit. Similar
    performance improvements (>4Gbit)
    2.3. GRE transport - direct wiring to GRE PWE
    2.4. L2TPv3 transport - direct wiring to L2TPv3 PWE
3. Tuning, performance and offload related setting support via ethtool.
4. Initial BPF support - used in tap/raw to avoid software looping
5. Scatter Gather support.
6. VNET and checksum offload support for raw socket transport.
7. TSO/GSO support where applicable or available
8. Migrates all error messages to netdevice_*() and rate limits
them where needed.
