Sowmini reported that a recent commit broke prefix routes for linklocal
addresses. The newly added modify_prefix_route is attempting to add a
new prefix route when the ifp priority does not match the route metric
however the check needs to account for the default priority. In addition,
the route add fails because the route already exists, and then the delete
removes the one that exists. Flip the order to do the delete first.

The RTN_ type for IPv6 FIB entries is currently embedded in rt6i_flags
and dst.error. Since dst is going to be removed, it can no longer be
relied on for FIB dumps so save the route type as fib6_type.

fc_type is set in current users based on the algorithm in rt6_fill_node:
  - rt6i_flags contains RTF_LOCAL: fc_type = RTN_LOCAL
  - rt6i_flags contains RTF_ANYCAST: fc_type = RTN_ANYCAST
  - else fc_type = RTN_UNICAST

Similarly, fib6_type is set in the rt6_info templates based on the
RTF_REJECT section of rt6_fill_node converting dst.error to RTN type.

Send a netlink notification when userspace adds a manually configured
address if DAD is enabled and optimistic flag isn't set.
Moreover send RTM_DELADDR notifications for tentative addresses.

Some userspace applications (e.g. NetworkManager) are interested in
addr netlink events albeit the address is still in tentative state,
however events are not sent if DAD process is not completed.
If the address is added and immediately removed userspace listeners
are not notified. This behaviour can be easily reproduced by using
veth interfaces:

$ ip -b - <<EOF
> link add dev vm1 type veth peer name vm2
> link set dev vm1 up
> link set dev vm2 up
> addr add 2001:db8:a:b:1:2:3:4/64 dev vm1
> addr del 2001:db8:a:b:1:2:3:4/64 dev vm1

ipv6_chk_addr_and_flags determines if an address is a local address and
optionally if it is an address on a specific device. For example, it is
called by ip6_route_info_create to determine if a given gateway address
is a local address. The address check currently does not consider L3
domains and as a result does not allow a route to be added in one VRF
if the nexthop points to an address in a second VRF. e.g.,

    $ ip route add 2001:db8:1::/64 vrf r2 via 2001:db8:102::23
    Error: Invalid gateway address.

where 2001:db8:102::23 is an address on an interface in vrf r1.

ipv6_chk_addr_and_flags needs to allow callers to always pass in a device
with a separate argument to not limit the address to the specific device.
The device is used used to determine the L3 domain of interest.

To that end add an argument to skip the device check and update callers
to always pass a device where possible and use the new argument to mean
any address in the domain.

Update a handful of users of ipv6_chk_addr with a NULL dev argument. This
patch handles the change to these callers without adding the domain check.

ip6_validate_gw needs to handle 2 cases - one where the device is given
as part of the nexthop spec and the other where the device is resolved.
There is at least 1 VRF case where deferring the check to only after
the route lookup has resolved the device fails with an unintuitive error
"RTNETLINK answers: No route to host" as opposed to the preferred
"Error: Gateway can not be a local address." The 'no route to host'
error is because of the fallback to a full lookup. The check is done
twice to avoid this error.

According to RFC 4429 (section 3.1), adding new IPv6 addresses as
optimistic addresses is acceptable, as long as the implementation
follows some rules:

   * Optimistic DAD SHOULD only be used when the implementation is aware
        that the address is based on a most likely unique interface
        identifier (such as in [RFC2464]), generated randomly [RFC3041],
        or by a well-distributed hash function [RFC3972] or assigned by
        Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol for IPv6 (DHCPv6) [RFC3315].
        Optimistic DAD SHOULD NOT be used for manually entered
        addresses.

Thus, it seems reasonable to allow userspace to set the optimistic flag
when adding new addresses.

We must not let userspace set NODAD + OPTIMISTIC, since if the kernel is
not performing DAD we would never clear the optimistic flag. We must
also ignore userspace's request to add OPTIMISTIC flag to addresses that
have already completed DAD (addresses that don't have the TENTATIVE
flag, or that have the DADFAILED flag).

Then we also need to clear the OPTIMISTIC flag on permanent addresses
when DAD fails. Otherwise, IFA_F_OPTIMISTIC addresses added by userspace
can still be used after DAD has failed, because in
ipv6_chk_addr_and_flags(), IFA_F_OPTIMISTIC overrides IFA_F_TENTATIVE.

Setting IFA_F_OPTIMISTIC from userspace is conditional on
CONFIG_IPV6_OPTIMISTIC_DAD and the optimistic_dad sysctl.

Heiner reported a lockdep splat [1]

This is caused by attempting GFP_KERNEL allocation while RCU lock is
held and BH blocked.

We believe that addrconf_verify_rtnl() could run for a long period,
so instead of using GFP_ATOMIC here as Ido suggested, we should break
the critical section and restart it after the allocation.

/proc has been ignoring struct file_operations::owner field for 10 years.
Specifically, it started with commit 786d7e16
("Fix rmmod/read/write races in /proc entries"). Notice the chunk where
inode->i_fop is initialized with proxy struct file_operations for
regular files:

	-               if (de->proc_fops)
	-                       inode->i_fop = de->proc_fops;
	+               if (de->proc_fops) {
	+                       if (S_ISREG(inode->i_mode))
	+                               inode->i_fop = &proc_reg_file_ops;
	+                       else
	+                               inode->i_fop = de->proc_fops;
	+               }

Similar to IPv4, when the carrier of a netdev changes we should toggle
the 'linkdown' flag on all the nexthops using it as their nexthop
device.

This will later allow us to test for the presence of this flag during
route lookup and dump.

Up until commit 4832c30d ("net: ipv6: put host and anycast routes on
device with address") host and anycast routes used the loopback netdev
as their nexthop device and thus were not marked with the 'linkdown'
flag. The patch preserves this behavior and allows one to ping the local
address even when the nexthop device does not have a carrier and the
'ignore_routes_with_linkdown' sysctl is set.

To make IPv6 more in line with IPv4 we need to be able to respond
differently to different netdev events. For example, when a netdev is
unregistered all the routes using it as their nexthop device should be
flushed, whereas when the netdev's carrier changes only the 'linkdown'
flag should be toggled.

Currently, this is not possible, as the function that traverses the
routing tables is not aware of the triggering event.

Propagate the triggering event down, so that it could be used in later
patches.

Previous patch marked nexthops with the 'dead' and 'linkdown' flags.
Clear these flags when the netdev comes back up.

This removes __rtnl_register and switches callers to either
rtnl_register or rtnl_register_module.

Also, rtnl_register() will now print an error if memory allocation
failed rather than panic the kernel.

This converts all remaining cases of the old setup_timer() API into using
timer_setup(), where the callback argument is the structure already
holding the struct timer_list. These should have no behavioral changes,
since they just change which pointer is passed into the callback with
the same available pointers after conversion. It handles the following
examples, in addition to some other variations.

Casting from unsigned long:

    void my_callback(unsigned long data)
    {
        struct something *ptr = (struct something *)data;
    ...
    }
    ...
    setup_timer(&ptr->my_timer, my_callback, ptr);

and forced object casts:

    void my_callback(struct something *ptr)
    {
    ...
    }
    ...
    setup_timer(&ptr->my_timer, my_callback, (unsigned long)ptr);

become:

    void my_callback(struct timer_list *t)
    {
        struct something *ptr = from_timer(ptr, t, my_timer);
    ...
    }
    ...
    timer_setup(&ptr->my_timer, my_callback, 0);

Direct function assignments:

    void my_callback(unsigned long data)
    {
        struct something *ptr = (struct something *)data;
    ...
    }
    ...
    ptr->my_timer.function = my_callback;

have a temporary cast added, along with converting the args:

    void my_callback(struct timer_list *t)
    {
        struct something *ptr = from_timer(ptr, t, my_timer);
    ...
    }
    ...
    ptr->my_timer.function = (TIMER_FUNC_TYPE)my_callback;

And finally, callbacks without a data assignment:

    void my_callback(unsigned long data)
    {
    ...
    }
    ...
    setup_timer(&ptr->my_timer, my_callback, 0);

have their argument renamed to verify they're unused during conversion:

    void my_callback(struct timer_list *unused)
    {
    ...
    }
    ...
    timer_setup(&ptr->my_timer, my_callback, 0);

The conversion is done with the following Coccinelle script:

spatch --very-quiet --all-includes --include-headers \
	-I ./arch/x86/include -I ./arch/x86/include/generated \
	-I ./include -I ./arch/x86/include/uapi \
