    net: xfrm: support setting an output mark. · 077fbac4

    On systems that use mark-based routing it may be necessary for
    routing lookups to use marks in order for packets to be routed
    correctly. An example of such a system is Android, which uses
    socket marks to route packets via different networks.
    
    Currently, routing lookups in tunnel mode always use a mark of
    zero, making routing incorrect on such systems.
    
    This patch adds a new output_mark element to the xfrm state and
    a corresponding XFRMA_OUTPUT_MARK netlink attribute. The output
    mark differs from the existing xfrm mark in two ways:
    
    1. The xfrm mark is used to match xfrm policies and states, while
       the xfrm output mark is used to set the mark (and influence
       the routing) of the packets emitted by those states.
    2. The existing mark is constrained to be a subset of the bits of
       the originating socket or transformed packet, but the output
       mark is arbitrary and depends only on the state.
    
    The use of a separate mark provides additional flexibility. For
    example:
    
    - A packet subject to two transforms (e.g., transport mode inside
      tunnel mode) can have two different output marks applied to it,
      one for the transport mode SA and one for the tunnel mode SA.
    - On a system where socket marks determine routing, the packets
      emitted by an IPsec tunnel can be routed based on a mark that
      is determined by the tunnel, not by the marks of the
      unencrypted packets.
    - Support for setting the output marks can be introduced without
      breaking any existing setups that employ both mark-based
      routing and xfrm tunnel mode. Simply changing the code to use
      the xfrm mark for routing output packets could xfrm mark could
      change behaviour in a way that breaks these setups.
    
    If the output mark is unspecified or set to zero, the mark is not
    set or changed.
