_rt6i_peer is no longer needed after the last patch, 'ipv6: Stop rt6_info from using inet_peer's metrics'. DST_METRICS_FORCE_OVERWRITE is added by commit e5fd387a ("ipv6: do not overwrite inetpeer metrics prematurely"). Since inetpeer is no longer used for metrics, this bit is also not needed.

inet_peer is indexed by the dst address alone. However, the fib6 tree could have multiple routing entries (rt6_info) for the same dst. For example, 1. A /128 dst via multiple gateways. 2. A RTF_CACHE route cloned from a /128 route. In the above cases, all of them will share the same metrics and step on each other. This patch will steer away from inet_peer's metrics and use dst_cow_metrics_generic() for everything. Change Highlights: 1. Remove rt6_cow_metrics() which currently acquires metrics from inet_peer for DST_HOST route (i.e. /128 route). 2. Add rt6i_pmtu to take care of the pmtu update to avoid creating a full size metrics just to override the RTAX_MTU. 3. After (2), the RTF_CACHE route can also share the metrics with its dst.from route, by: dst_init_metrics(&cache_rt->dst, dst_metrics_ptr(cache_rt->dst.from), true); 4. Stop creating RTF_CACHE route by cloning another RTF_CACHE route. Instead, directly clone from rt->dst. [ Currently, cloning from another RTF_CACHE is only possible during rt6_do_redirect(). Also, the old clone is removed from the tree immediately after the new clone is added. ] In case of cloning from an older redirect RTF_CACHE, it should work as before. In case of cloning from an older pmtu RTF_CACHE, this patch will forget the pmtu and re-learn it (if there is any) from the redirected route. The _rt6i_peer and DST_METRICS_FORCE_OVERWRITE will be removed in the next cleanup patch.

Eric Dumazet noticed that all no-nonexthop or no-gateway routes which are already marked DST_HOST (e.g. input routes routes) will always be invalidated during sk_dst_check. Thus per-socket dst caching absolutely had no effect and early demuxing had no effect. Thus this patch removes rt6i_genid: fn_sernum already gets modified during add operations, so we only must ensure we mutate fn_sernum during ipv6 address remove operations. This is a fairly cost extensive operations, but address removal should not happen that often. Also our mtu update functions do the same and we heard no complains so far. xfrm policy changes also cause a call into fib6_flush_trees. Also plug a hole in rt6_info (no cacheline changes). I verified via tracing that this change has effect.

If an IPv6 host route with metrics exists, an attempt to add a new route for the same target with different metrics fails but rewrites the metrics anyway: 12sp0:~ # ip route add fec0::1 dev eth0 rto_min 1000 12sp0:~ # ip -6 route show fe80::/64 dev eth0 proto kernel metric 256 fec0::1 dev eth0 metric 1024 rto_min lock 1s 12sp0:~ # ip route add fec0::1 dev eth0 rto_min 1500 RTNETLINK answers: File exists 12sp0:~ # ip -6 route show fe80::/64 dev eth0 proto kernel metric 256 fec0::1 dev eth0 metric 1024 rto_min lock 1.5s This is caused by all IPv6 host routes using the metrics in their inetpeer (or the shared default). This also holds for the new route created in ip6_route_add() which shares the metrics with the already existing route and thus ip6_route_add() rewrites the metrics even if the new route ends up not being used at all. Another problem is that old metrics in inetpeer can reappear unexpectedly for a new route, e.g. 12sp0:~ # ip route add fec0::1 dev eth0 rto_min 1000 12sp0:~ # ip route del fec0::1 12sp0:~ # ip route add fec0::1 dev eth0 12sp0:~ # ip route change fec0::1 dev eth0 hoplimit 10 12sp0:~ # ip -6 route show fe80::/64 dev eth0 proto kernel metric 256 fec0::1 dev eth0 metric 1024 hoplimit 10 rto_min lock 1s Resolve the first problem by moving the setting of metrics down into fib6_add_rt2node() to the point we are sure we are inserting the new route into the tree. Second problem is addressed by introducing new flag DST_METRICS_FORCE_OVERWRITE which is set for a new host route in ip6_route_add() and makes ipv6_cow_metrics() always overwrite the metrics in inetpeer (even if they are not "new"); it is reset after that. v5: use a flag in _metrics member rather than one in flags v4: fix a typo making a condition always true (thanks to Hannes Frederic Sowa) v3: rewritten based on David Miller's idea to move setting the metrics (and allocation in non-host case) down to the point we already know the route is to be inserted.

On receiving a packet too big icmp error we update the expire value by calling rt6_update_expires. This function uses dst_set_expires which is implemented that it can only reduce the expiration value of the dst entry. If we insert new routing non-expiry information into the ipv6 fib where we already have a matching rt6_info we only clear the RTF_EXPIRES flag in rt6i_flags and leave the dst.expires value as is. When new mtu information arrives for that cached dst_entry we again call dst_set_expires. This time it won't update the dst.expire value because we left the dst.expire value intact from the last update. So dst_set_expires won't touch dst.expires. Fix this by resetting dst.expires when clearing the RTF_EXPIRE flag. dst_set_expires checks for a zero expiration and updates the dst.expires. In the past this (not updating dst.expires) was necessary because dst.expire was placed in a union with the dst_entry *from reference and rt6_clean_expires did assign NULL to it. This split happend in ecd98837 ("ipv6: fix race condition regarding dst->expires and dst->from"). Reported-by: NSteinar H.

On a high-traffic router with many processors and many IPv6 dst entries, soft lockup in fib6_run_gc() can occur when number of entries reaches gc_thresh. This happens because fib6_run_gc() uses fib6_gc_lock to allow only one thread to run the garbage collector but ip6_dst_gc() doesn't update net->ipv6.ip6_rt_last_gc until fib6_run_gc() returns. On a system with many entries, this can take some time so that in the meantime, other threads pass the tests in ip6_dst_gc() (ip6_rt_last_gc is still not updated) and wait for the lock. They then have to run the garbage collector one after another which blocks them for quite long. Resolve this by replacing special value ~0UL of expire parameter to fib6_run_gc() by explicit "force" parameter to choose between spin_lock_bh() and spin_trylock_bh() and call fib6_run_gc() with force=false if gc_thresh is reached but not max_size.

/proc/net/ipv6_route reflects the contents of fib_table_hash. The proc handler is installed in ip6_route_net_init() whereas fib_table_hash is allocated in fib6_net_init() _after_ the proc handler has been installed. This opens up a short time frame to access fib_table_hash with its pants down. fib6_init() as a whole can't be moved to an earlier position as it also registers the rtnetlink message handlers which should be registered at the end. Therefore split it into fib6_init() which is run early and fib6_init_late() to register the rtnetlink message handlers.

When rt6_info.rt6i_flags has no RTF_EXPIRES flag,the dst.expires has no use. we can use this field to point to where the dst cache copy from. The dst.from is only used in IPV6. rt6_check_expired check if rt6_info.dst.from is expired. ip6_rt_copy only set dst.from when the ort has flag RTF_ADDRCONF and RTF_DEFAULT.then hold the ort. ip6_dst_destroy release the ort. Add some functions to operate the RTF_EXPIRES flag and expires(from) together. and change the code to use these new adding functions.

During some debugging I needed to look into how /proc/net/ipv6_route operated and in my digging I found its calling fib6_clean_all() which uses "write_lock_bh(&table->tb6_lock)" before doing the walk of the table. I found this on 2.6.32, but reading the code I believe the same basic idea exists currently. Looking at the rtnetlink code they are only calling "read_lock_bh(&table->tb6_lock);" via fib6_dump_table(). While I realize reading from proc isn't the recommended way of fetching the ipv6 route table; taking a write lock seems unnecessary and would probably cause network performance issues. To verify this I loaded up the ipv6 route table and then ran iperf in 3 cases: * doing nothing * reading ipv6 route table via proc (while :; do cat /proc/net/ipv6_route > /dev/null; done) * reading ipv6 route table via rtnetlink (while :; do ip -6 route show table all > /dev/null; done) * Load the ipv6 route table up with: * for ((i = 0;i < 4000;i++)); do ip route add unreachable 2000::$i; done * iperf commands: * client: iperf -i 1 -V -c <ipv6 addr> * server: iperf -V -s * iperf results - 3 runs each (in Mbits/sec) * nothing: client: 927,927,927 server: 927,927,927 * proc: client: 179,97,96,113 server: 142,112,133 * iproute: client: 928,927,928 server: 927,927,927 lock_stat shows taking the write lock is causing the slowdown. Using this info I decided to write a version of fib6_clean_all() which replaces write_lock_bh(&table->tb6_lock) with read_lock_bh(&table->tb6_lock). With this new function I see the same results as with my rtnetlink iperf test. Signed-off-by: NJosh Hunt <joshhunt00@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: NDavid S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

If we didn't have a routing cache, we would not be able to properly propagate certain kinds of dynamic path attributes, for example PMTU information and redirects. The reason is that if we didn't have a routing cache, then there would be no way to lookup all of the active cached routes hanging off of sockets, tunnels, IPSEC bundles, etc. Consider the case where we created a cached route, but no inetpeer entry existed and also we were not asked to pre-COW the route metrics and therefore did not force the creation a new inetpeer entry. If we later get a PMTU message, or a redirect, and store this information in a new inetpeer entry, there is no way to teach that cached route about the newly existing inetpeer entry. The facilities implemented here handle this problem. First we create a generation ID. When we create a cached route of any kind, we remember the generation ID at the time of attachment. Any time we force-create an inetpeer entry in response to new path information, we bump that generation ID. The dst_ops->check() callback is where the knowledge of this event is propagated. If the global generation ID does not equal the one stored in the cached route, and the cached route has not attached to an inetpeer yet, we look it up and attach if one is found. Now that we've updated the cached route's information, we update the route's generation ID too. This clears the way for implementing PMTU and redirects directly in the inetpeer cache. There is absolutely no need to consult cached route information in order to maintain this information. At this point nothing bumps the inetpeer genids, that comes in the later changes which handle PMTUs and redirects using inetpeers. Signed-off-by: NDavid S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

remove useless union keyword in rtable, rt6_info and dn_route. Since there is only one member in a union, the union keyword isn't useful. Signed-off-by: NChangli Gao <xiaosuo@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: NEric Dumazet <eric.dumazet@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: NDavid S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>

The head element of rt6_info{} is dst_entry{}, and IPv6 specific elements follow. Because elements at the end of dst_entry{} are frequently updated, it is not good to put frequently-used static elements, such as rt6i_idev, rt6i_dst or rt6i_flags in the same cache line. On the other hand, fib6_table, rt6i_node or rt6i_gateway are rarely used, so it is okay to stay in the same cache line. Let's rearrange rt6_info{}.

When the fib size exceeds what can be dumped in a single skb, the dump is suspended and resumed once the last skb has been received by userspace. When the fib is changed while the dump is suspended, the walker might contain stale pointers, causing a crash when the dump is resumed.

Similar to other dumping functions, this might cause unrelated entries to be missed when entries are deleted.
