      ====================
      ipv6: Stop /128 route from disappearing after pmtu update
      
      The series is separated from another patch series,
      'ipv6: Only create RTF_CACHE route after encountering pmtu exception',
      which can be found here:
      http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.network/359140
      
      This series focus on fixing the /128 route issues.  It is currently targeted
      for net-next due to the number of code churn but it is also applicable
      to net (should be without conflict).  The original reported problem can be
      found here:
      http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.network/348138
      
      
      
      Patch 01 and 02 are to prepare the fib6 search to expect both the
      RTF_CACHE clone and its original route exist at the same fib6_node.
      
      Patch 03 fixes the /128 route disappearing bug.
      
      Patch 04 and 05 stop rt6_info from using the inet_peer's metrics to
      avoid the /128 routes (like the /128 clone and its original route)
      from stepping on each others' metrics.
      
      The second patch is by 'Steffen Klassert <steffen.klassert@secunet.com>'
      which I pulled off from netdev.  The third patch is also mostly by
      Steffen with one minor optimization.

      reviewing the patches and giving advice.

      ipv6: Stop rt6_info from using inet_peer's metrics · 4b32b5ad
      Martin KaFai Lau authored
      
      
      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.

      Martin KaFai Lau authored
      
      
      This patch is mostly from Steffen Klassert <steffen.klassert@secunet.com>.
      I only removed the (rt6->rt6i_dst.plen == 128) check from
      ip6_rt_update_pmtu() because the (rt6->rt6i_flags & RTF_CACHE) test
      has already implied it.
      
      This patch:
      1. Create RTF_CACHE route for /128 non local route
      2. After (1), all routes that allow pmtu update should have a RTF_CACHE
         clone.  Hence, stop updating MTU for any non RTF_CACHE route.

      ipv6: Extend the route lookups to low priority metrics. · 9fbdcfaf
      Steffen Klassert authored
      
      
      We search only for routes with highest priority metric in
      find_rr_leaf(). However if one of these routes is marked
      as invalid, we may fail to find a route even if there is
      a appropriate route with lower priority. Then we loose
      connectivity until the garbage collector deletes the
      invalid route. This typically happens if a host route
      expires afer a pmtu event. Fix this by searching also
      for routes with a lower priority metric.

      ipv6: Consider RTF_CACHE when searching the fib6 tree · 1f56a01f
      Martin KaFai Lau authored
      
      
      It is a prep work for the later bug-fix patch which will stop /128 route
      from disappearing after pmtu update.
      
      The later bug-fix patch will allow a /128 route and its RTF_CACHE clone
      both exist at the same fib6_node.  To do this, we need to prepare the
      existing fib6 tree search to expect RTF_CACHE for /128 route.
      
      Note that the fn->leaf is sorted by rt6i_metric.  Hence,
      RTF_CACHE (if there is any) is always at the front.  This property
      leads to the following:
      
      1. When doing ip6_route_del(), it should honor the RTF_CACHE flag which
         the caller is used to ask for deleting clone or non-clone.
         The rtm_to_fib6_config() should also check the RTM_F_CLONED and
         then set RTF_CACHE accordingly so that:
         - 'ip -6 r del...' will make ip6_route_del() to delete a route
           and all its clones. Note that its clones is flushed by fib6_del()
         - 'ip -6 r flush table cache' will make ip6_route_del() to
            only delete clone(s).
      
      2. Exclude RTF_CACHE from addrconf_get_prefix_route() which
         should not configure on a cloned route.
      
      3. No change is need for rt6_device_match() since it currently could
         return a RTF_CACHE clone route, so the later bug-fix patch will not
         affect it.

      Ilya Dryomov authored
      
      
      When we end I/O struct request with error, we need to pass
      obj_request->length as @nr_bytes so that the entire obj_request worth
      of bytes is completed.  Otherwise block layer ends up confused and we
      trip on
      
          rbd_assert(more ^ (which == img_request->obj_request_count));
      
      in rbd_img_obj_callback() due to more being true no matter what.  We
      already do it in most cases but we are missing some, in particular
      those where we don't even get a chance to submit any obj_requests, due
      to an early -ENOMEM for example.
      
      A number of obj_request->xferred assignments seem to be redundant but
      I haven't touched any of obj_request->xferred stuff to keep this small
      and isolated.
