net: skb: introduce kfree_skb_reason()
Introduce the interface kfree_skb_reason(), which is able to pass the reason why the skb is dropped to 'kfree_skb' tracepoint. Add the 'reason' field to 'trace_kfree_skb', therefor user can get more detail information about abnormal skb with 'drop_monitor' or eBPF. All drop reasons are defined in the enum 'skb_drop_reason', and they will be print as string in 'kfree_skb' tracepoint in format of 'reason: XXX'. ( Maybe the reasons should be defined in a uapi header file, so that user space can use them? ) Signed-off-by: Menglong Dong <imagedong@tencent.com> Signed-off-by: Jakub Kicinski <kuba@kernel.org>
