ipv6: Plumb support for nexthop object in a fib6_info
Add struct nexthop and nh_list list_head to fib6_info. nh_list is the fib6_info side of the nexthop <-> fib_info relationship. Since a fib6_info referencing a nexthop object can not have 'sibling' entries (the old way of doing multipath routes), the nh_list is a union with fib6_siblings. Add f6i_list list_head to 'struct nexthop' to track fib6_info entries using a nexthop instance. Update __remove_nexthop_fib to walk f6_list and delete fib entries using the nexthop. Add a few nexthop helpers for use when a nexthop is added to fib6_info: - nexthop_fib6_nh - return first fib6_nh in a nexthop object - fib6_info_nh_dev moved to nexthop.h and updated to use nexthop_fib6_nh if the fib6_info references a nexthop object - nexthop_path_fib6_result - similar to ipv4, select a path within a multipath nexthop object. If the nexthop is a blackhole, set fib6_result type to RTN_BLACKHOLE, and set the REJECT flag Update the fib6_info references to check for nh and take a different path as needed: - rt6_qualify_for_ecmp - if a fib entry uses a nexthop object it can NOT be coalesced with other fib entries into a multipath route - rt6_duplicate_nexthop - use nexthop_cmp if either fib6_info references a nexthop - addrconf (host routes), RA's and info entries (anything configured via ndisc) does not use nexthop objects - fib6_info_destroy_rcu - put reference to nexthop object - fib6_purge_rt - drop fib6_info from f6i_list - fib6_select_path - update to use the new nexthop_path_fib6_result when fib entry uses a nexthop object - rt6_device_match - update to catch use of nexthop object as a blackhole and set fib6_type and flags. - ip6_route_info_create - don't add space for fib6_nh if fib entry is going to reference a nexthop object, take a reference to nexthop object, disallow use of source routing - rt6_nlmsg_size - add space for RTA_NH_ID - add rt6_fill_node_nexthop to add nexthop data on a dump As with ipv4, most of the changes push existing code into the else branch of whether the fib entry uses a nexthop object. Update the nexthop code to walk f6i_list on a nexthop deleted to remove fib entries referencing it. Signed-off-by:David Ahern <dsahern@gmail.com> Signed-off-by:
