Andy Gospodarek 0eeb075fad net: ipv4 sysctl option to ignore routes when nexthop link is down
This feature is only enabled with the new per-interface or ipv4 global
sysctls called 'ignore_routes_with_linkdown'.

net.ipv4.conf.all.ignore_routes_with_linkdown = 0
net.ipv4.conf.default.ignore_routes_with_linkdown = 0
net.ipv4.conf.lo.ignore_routes_with_linkdown = 0
...

When the above sysctls are set, will report to userspace that a route is
dead and will no longer resolve to this nexthop when performing a fib
lookup.  This will signal to userspace that the route will not be
selected.  The signalling of a RTNH_F_DEAD is only passed to userspace
if the sysctl is enabled and link is down.  This was done as without it
the netlink listeners would have no idea whether or not a nexthop would
be selected.   The kernel only sets RTNH_F_DEAD internally if the
interface has IFF_UP cleared.

With the new sysctl set, the following behavior can be observed
(interface p8p1 is link-down):

default via 10.0.5.2 dev p9p1
10.0.5.0/24 dev p9p1  proto kernel  scope link  src 10.0.5.15
70.0.0.0/24 dev p7p1  proto kernel  scope link  src 70.0.0.1
80.0.0.0/24 dev p8p1  proto kernel  scope link  src 80.0.0.1 dead linkdown
90.0.0.0/24 via 80.0.0.2 dev p8p1  metric 1 dead linkdown
90.0.0.0/24 via 70.0.0.2 dev p7p1  metric 2
90.0.0.1 via 70.0.0.2 dev p7p1  src 70.0.0.1
    cache
local 80.0.0.1 dev lo  src 80.0.0.1
    cache <local>
80.0.0.2 via 10.0.5.2 dev p9p1  src 10.0.5.15
    cache

While the route does remain in the table (so it can be modified if
needed rather than being wiped away as it would be if IFF_UP was
cleared), the proper next-hop is chosen automatically when the link is
down.  Now interface p8p1 is linked-up:

default via 10.0.5.2 dev p9p1
10.0.5.0/24 dev p9p1  proto kernel  scope link  src 10.0.5.15
70.0.0.0/24 dev p7p1  proto kernel  scope link  src 70.0.0.1
80.0.0.0/24 dev p8p1  proto kernel  scope link  src 80.0.0.1
90.0.0.0/24 via 80.0.0.2 dev p8p1  metric 1
90.0.0.0/24 via 70.0.0.2 dev p7p1  metric 2
192.168.56.0/24 dev p2p1  proto kernel  scope link  src 192.168.56.2
90.0.0.1 via 80.0.0.2 dev p8p1  src 80.0.0.1
    cache
local 80.0.0.1 dev lo  src 80.0.0.1
    cache <local>
80.0.0.2 dev p8p1  src 80.0.0.1
    cache

and the output changes to what one would expect.

If the sysctl is not set, the following output would be expected when
p8p1 is down:

default via 10.0.5.2 dev p9p1
10.0.5.0/24 dev p9p1  proto kernel  scope link  src 10.0.5.15
70.0.0.0/24 dev p7p1  proto kernel  scope link  src 70.0.0.1
80.0.0.0/24 dev p8p1  proto kernel  scope link  src 80.0.0.1 linkdown
90.0.0.0/24 via 80.0.0.2 dev p8p1  metric 1 linkdown
90.0.0.0/24 via 70.0.0.2 dev p7p1  metric 2

Since the dead flag does not appear, there should be no expectation that
the kernel would skip using this route due to link being down.

v2: Split kernel changes into 2 patches, this actually makes a
behavioral change if the sysctl is set.  Also took suggestion from Alex
to simplify code by only checking sysctl during fib lookup and
suggestion from Scott to add a per-interface sysctl.

v3: Code clean-ups to make it more readable and efficient as well as a
reverse path check fix.

v4: Drop binary sysctl

v5: Whitespace fixups from Dave

v6: Style changes from Dave and checkpatch suggestions

Andy Gospodarek 8a3d03166f net: track link-status of ipv4 nexthops
Add a fib flag called RTNH_F_LINKDOWN to any ipv4 nexthops that are
reachable via an interface where carrier is off.  No action is taken,
but additional flags are passed to userspace to indicate carrier status.

This also includes a cleanup to fib_disable_ip to more clearly indicate
what event made the function call to replace the more cryptic force
option previously used.

v2: Split out kernel functionality into 2 patches, this patch simply
sets and clears new nexthop flag RTNH_F_LINKDOWN.

v3: Cleanups suggested by Alex as well as a bug noticed in
fib_sync_down_dev and fib_sync_up when multipath was not enabled.

v5: Whitespace and variable declaration fixups suggested by Dave.

v6: Style fixups noticed by Dave; ran checkpatch to be sure I got them

Alexander Duyck 0ddcf43d5d ipv4: FIB Local/MAIN table collapse
This patch is meant to collapse local and main into one by converting
tb_data from an array to a pointer.  Doing this allows us to point the
local table into the main while maintaining the same variables in the
table.

As such the tb_data was converted from an array to a pointer, and a new
array called data is added in order to still provide an object for tb_data
to point to.

In order to track the origin of the fib aliases a tb_id value was added in
a hole that existed on 64b systems.  Using this we can also reverse the
merge in the event that custom FIB rules are enabled.

With this patch I am seeing an improvement of 20ns to 30ns for routing
lookups as long as custom rules are not enabled, with custom rules enabled
we fall back to split tables and the original behavior.

Alexander Duyck 345e9b5426 fib_trie: Push rcu_read_lock/unlock to callers
This change is to start cleaning up some of the rcu_read_lock/unlock
handling.  I realized while reviewing the code there are several spots that
I don't believe are being handled correctly or are masking warnings by
locally calling rcu_read_lock/unlock instead of calling them at the correct
level.

A common example is a call to fib_get_table followed by fib_table_lookup.
The rcu_read_lock/unlock ought to wrap both but there are several spots where
they were not wrapped.

Alexander Duyck a5a519b271 fib_trie: Fix /proc/net/fib_trie when CONFIG_IP_MULTIPLE_TABLES is not defined
In recent testing I had disabled CONFIG_IP_MULTIPLE_TABLES and as a result
when I ran "cat /proc/net/fib_trie" the main trie was displayed multiple
times.  I found that the problem line of code was in the function
fib_trie_seq_next.  Specifically the line below caused the indexes to go in
the opposite direction of our traversal:

	h = tb->tb_id & (FIB_TABLE_HASHSZ - 1);

This issue was that the RT tables are defined such that RT_TABLE_LOCAL is ID
255, while it is located at TABLE_LOCAL_INDEX of 0, and RT_TABLE_MAIN is 254
with a TABLE_MAIN_INDEX of 1.  This means that the above line will return 1
for the local table and 0 for main.  The result is that fib_trie_seq_next
will return NULL at the end of the local table, fib_trie_seq_start will
return the start of the main table, and then fib_trie_seq_next will loop on
main forever as h will always return 0.

The fix for this is to reverse the ordering of the two tables.  It has the
advantage of making it so that the tables now print in the same order
regardless of if multiple tables are enabled or not.  In order to make the
definition consistent with the multiple tables case I simply masked the to
RT_TABLE_XXX values by (FIB_TABLE_HASHSZ - 1).  This way the two table
layouts should always stay consistent.

Timo Teräs 2ffae99d1f ipv4: use next hop exceptions also for input routes
Commit d2d68ba9 (ipv4: Cache input routes in fib_info nexthops)
assmued that "locally destined, and routed packets, never trigger
PMTU events or redirects that will be processed by us".

However, it seems that tunnel devices do trigger PMTU events in certain
cases. At least ip_gre, ip6_gre, sit, and ipip do use the inner flow's
skb_dst(skb)->ops->update_pmtu to propage mtu information from the
outer flows. These can cause the inner flow mtu to be decreased. If
next hop exceptions are not consulted for pmtu, IP fragmentation will
not be done properly for these routes.

It also seems that we really need to have the PMTU information always
for netfilter TCPMSS clamp-to-pmtu feature to work properly.

So for the time being, cache separate copies of input routes for
each next hop exception.

Timo Teräs 5aad1de5ea ipv4: use separate genid for next hop exceptions
commit 13d82bf5 (ipv4: Fix flushing of cached routing informations)
added the support to flush learned pmtu information.

However, using rt_genid is quite heavy as it is bumped on route
add/change and multicast events amongst other places. These can
happen quite often, especially if using dynamic routing protocols.

While this is ok with routes (as they are just recreated locally),
the pmtu information is learned from remote systems and the icmp
notification can come with long delays. It is worthy to have separate
genid to avoid excessive pmtu resets.

Eric Dumazet f4ef85bbda ipv4: add a fib_type to fib_info
commit d2d68ba9fe (ipv4: Cache input routes in fib_info nexthops.)
introduced a regression for forwarding.

This was hard to reproduce but the symptom was that packets were
delivered to local host instead of being forwarded.

David suggested to add fib_type to fib_info so that we dont
inadvertently share same fib_info for different purposes.

With help from Julian Anastasov who provided very helpful
hints, reproduced here :

<quote>
        Can it be a problem related to fib_info reuse
from different routes. For example, when local IP address
is created for subnet we have:

broadcast 192.168.0.255 dev DEV  proto kernel  scope link  src
192.168.0.1
192.168.0.0/24 dev DEV  proto kernel  scope link  src 192.168.0.1
local 192.168.0.1 dev DEV  proto kernel  scope host  src 192.168.0.1

        The "dev DEV  proto kernel  scope link  src 192.168.0.1" is
a reused fib_info structure where we put cached routes.
The result can be same fib_info for 192.168.0.255 and
192.168.0.0/24. RTN_BROADCAST is cached only for input
routes. Incoming broadcast to 192.168.0.255 can be cached
and can cause problems for traffic forwarded to 192.168.0.0/24.
So, this patch should solve the problem because it
separates the broadcast from unicast traffic.

        And the ip_route_input_slow caching will work for
local and broadcast input routes (above routes 1 and 3) just
because they differ in scope and use different fib_info.

commit 404e0a8b6a (net: ipv4: fix RCU races on dst refcounts) tried

We really want to call dst_free() as soon as possible, even if sockets
still have dst in their cache.
dst_release() calls in free_fib_info_rcu() are not welcomed.

Root of the problem was that now we also cache output routes (in
nh_rth_output), we must use call_rcu() instead of call_rcu_bh() in
rt_free(), because output route lookups are done in process context.

Based on feedback and initial patch from David Miller (adding another
call_rcu_bh() call in fib, but it appears it was not the right fix)

I left the inet_sk_rx_dst_set() helper and added __rcu attributes
to nh_rth_output and nh_rth_input to better document what is going on in
this code.

David S. Miller f2bb4bedf3 ipv4: Cache output routes in fib_info nexthops.
If we have an output route that lacks nexthop exceptions, we can cache
it in the FIB info nexthop.

Such routes will have DST_HOST cleared because such routes refer to a
family of destinations, rather than just one.

The sequence of the handling of exceptions during route lookup is
adjusted to make the logic work properly.

Before we allocate the route, we lookup the exception.

Then we know if we will cache this route or not, and therefore whether
DST_HOST should be set on the allocated route.

Then we use DST_HOST to key off whether we should store the resulting
route, during rt_set_nexthop(), in the FIB nexthop cache.

David S. Miller 35ebf65e85 ipv4: Create and use fib_compute_spec_dst() helper.
The specific destination is the host we direct unicast replies to.
Usually this is the original packet source address, but if we are
responding to a multicast or broadcast packet we have to use something
different.

Specifically we must use the source address we would use if we were to
send a packet to the unicast source of the original packet.

The routing cache precomputes this value, but we want to remove that
precomputation because it creates a hard dependency on the expensive
rpfilter source address validation which we'd like to make cheaper.

There are only three places where this matters:

1) ICMP replies.

2) pktinfo CMSG

3) IP options

Now there will be no real users of rt->rt_spec_dst and we can simply
remove it altogether.

David S. Miller 21d8c49e01 ipv4: Call fib_select_default() only when actually necessary.
fib_select_default() is a complete NOP, and completely pointless
to invoke, when we have no more than 1 default route installed.

And this is far and away the common case.

So remember how many prefixlen==0 routes we have in the routing
table, and elide the call when we have no more than one of those.

This cuts output route creation time by 157 cycles on Niagara2+.

In order to add the new int to fib_table, we have to correct the type
of ->tb_data[] to unsigned long, otherwise the private area will be
unaligned on 64-bit systems.

David S. Miller 1fc050a134 ipv4: Cache source address in nexthop entries.
When doing output route lookups, we have to select the source address
if the user has not specified an explicit one.

First, if the route has an explicit preferred source address
specified, then we use that.

Otherwise we search the route's outgoing interface for a suitable
address.

This search can be precomputed and cached at route insertion time.

The only missing part is that we have to refresh this precomputed
value any time addresses are added or removed from the interface, and
this is accomplished by fib_update_nh_saddrs().

David S. Miller 0c838ff1ad ipv4: Consolidate all default route selection implementations.
Both fib_trie and fib_hash have a local implementation of
fib_table_select_default().  This is completely unnecessary
code duplication.

Since we now remember the fib_table and the head of the fib
alias list of the default route, we can implement one single
generic version of this routine.

Looking at the fib_hash implementation you may get the impression
that it's possible for there to be multiple top-level routes in
the table for the default route.  The truth is, it isn't, the
insert code will only allow one entry to exist in the zero
prefix hash table, because all keys evaluate to zero and all
keys in a hash table must be unique.

Since matching on realms is also useful without having NET_SCHED enabled and

There are places that check for CONFIG_IP_MULTIPLE_TABLES
twice in the same file, but the internals of these #ifdefs
can be merged.

As a side effect - remove one ifdef from inside a function.

Thomas Graf 4e902c5741 [IPv4]: FIB configuration using struct fib_config
Introduces struct fib_config replacing the ugly struct kern_rta
prone to ordering issues. Avoids creating faked netlink messages
for auto generated routes or requests via ioctl.

A new interface net/nexthop.h is added to help navigate through
nexthop configuration arrays.

A new struct nl_info will be used to carry the necessary netlink
information to be used for notifications later on.

Robert Olsson 246955fe4c [NETLINK]: fib_lookup() via netlink
Below is a more generic patch to do fib_lookup via netlink. For others 
we should say that we discussed this as a way to verify route selection.
It's also possible there are others uses for this.

In short the fist half of struct fib_result_nl is filled in by caller 
and netlink call fills in the other half and returns it.

In case anyone is interested there is a corresponding user app to compare 
the full routing table this was used to test implementation of the LC-trie.

Linus Torvalds 1da177e4c3 Linux-2.6.12-rc2
Initial git repository build. I'm not bothering with the full history,
even though we have it. We can create a separate "historical" git
archive of that later if we want to, and in the meantime it's about
3.2GB when imported into git - space that would just make the early
git days unnecessarily complicated, when we don't have a lot of good
infrastructure for it.

Let it rip!
