====================
ipv6: Align nexthop behaviour with IPv4

This set tries to eliminate some differences between IPv4's and IPv6's
treatment of nexthops. These differences are most likely a side effect
of IPv6's data structures (specifically 'rt6_info') that incorporate
both the route and the nexthop and the late addition of ECMP support in
commit 51ebd318 ("ipv6: add support of equal cost multipath
(ECMP)").

IPv4 and IPv6 do not react the same to certain netdev events. For
example, upon carrier change affected IPv4 nexthops are marked using the
RTNH_F_LINKDOWN flag and the nexthop group is rebalanced accordingly.
IPv6 on the other hand, does nothing which forces us to perform a
carrier check during route lookup and dump. This makes it difficult to
introduce features such as non-equal-cost multipath that are built on
top of this set [1].

In addition, when a netdev is put administratively down IPv4 nexthops
are marked using the RTNH_F_DEAD flag, whereas IPv6 simply flushes all
the routes using these nexthops. To be consistent with IPv4, multipath
routes should only be flushed when all nexthops in the group are
considered dead.

The first 12 patches introduce non-functional changes that store the
RTNH_F_DEAD and RTNH_F_LINKDOWN flags in IPv6 routes based on netdev
events, in a similar fashion to IPv4. This allows us to remove the
carrier check performed during route lookup and dump.

The next three patches make sure we only flush a multipath route when
all of its nexthops are dead.

Last three patches add test cases for IPv4/IPv6 FIB. These verify that
both address families react similarly to netdev events.

Finally, this series also serves as a good first step towards David
Ahern's goal of treating nexthops as standalone objects [2], as it makes
the code more in line with IPv4 where the nexthop and the nexthop group
are separate objects from the route itself.

2. http://vger.kernel.org/netconf2017_files/nexthop-objects.pdf

Changes since RFC (feedback from David Ahern):
* Remove redundant declaration of rt6_ifdown() in patch 4 and adjust
comment referencing it accordingly
* Drop patch to flush multipath routes upon NETDEV_UNREGISTER. Reword
cover letter accordingly
* Use a temporary variable to make code more readable in patch 15

routes should.

      ipv6: Flush multipath routes when all siblings are dead · 1de178ed
      由 Ido Schimmel 提交于 
      By default, IPv6 deletes nexthops from a multipath route when the
nexthop device is put administratively down. This differs from IPv4
where the nexthops are kept, but marked with the RTNH_F_DEAD flag. A
multipath route is flushed when all of its nexthops become dead.

Align IPv6 with IPv4 and have it conform to the same guidelines.

In case the multipath route needs to be flushed, its siblings are
flushed one by one. Otherwise, the nexthops are marked with the
appropriate flags and the tree walker is instructed to skip all the
siblings.

As explained in previous patches, care is taken to update the sernum of
the affected tree nodes, so as to prevent the use of wrong dst entries.

      ipv6: Take table lock outside of sernum update function · 922c2ac8
      由 Ido Schimmel 提交于 
      The next patch is going to allow dead routes to remain in the FIB tree
in certain situations.

When this happens we need to be sure to bump the sernum of the nodes
where these are stored so that potential copies cached in sockets are
invalidated.

The function that performs this update assumes the table lock is not
taken when it is invoked, but that will not be the case when it is
invoked by the tree walker.

Have the function assume the lock is taken and make the single caller
take the lock itself.

      ipv6: Export sernum update function · 4a8e56ee
      由 Ido Schimmel 提交于 
      We are going to allow dead routes to stay in the FIB tree (e.g., when
they are part of a multipath route, directly connected route with no
carrier) and revive them when their nexthop device gains carrier or when
it is put administratively up.

This is equivalent to the addition of the route to the FIB tree and we
should therefore take care of updating the sernum of all the parent
nodes of the node where the route is stored. Otherwise, we risk sockets
caching and using sub-optimal dst entries.

Export the function that performs the above, so that it could be invoked
from fib6_ifup() later on.

      ipv6: Teach tree walker to skip multipath routes · b5cb5a75
      由 Ido Schimmel 提交于 
      As explained in previous patch, fib6_ifdown() needs to consider the
state of all the sibling routes when a multipath route is traversed.

This is done by evaluating all the siblings when the first sibling in a
multipath route is traversed. If the multipath route does not need to be
flushed (e.g., not all siblings are dead), then we should just skip the
multipath route as our work is done.

Have the tree walker jump to the last sibling when it is determined that
the multipath route needs to be skipped.
