2017-02-04net: ipv6: Change notifications for multipath delete to RTA_MULTIPATHDavid Ahern1-1/+2
If an entire multipath route is deleted using prefix and len (without any nexthops), send a single RTM_DELROUTE notification with the full route using RTA_MULTIPATH. This is done by generating the skb before the route delete when all of the sibling routes are still present but sending it after the route has been removed from the FIB. The skip_notify flag is used to tell the lower fib code not to send notifications for the individual nexthop routes. If a route is deleted using RTA_MULTIPATH for any nexthops or a single nexthop entry is deleted, then the nexthops are deleted one at a time with notifications sent as each hop is deleted. This is necessary given that IPv6 allows individual hops within a route to be deleted. Signed-off-by: David Ahern <dsa@cumulusnetworks.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
2017-02-04net: ipv6: Change notifications for multipath add to RTA_MULTIPATHDavid Ahern1-2/+4
Change ip6_route_multipath_add to send one notifciation with the full route encoded with RTA_MULTIPATH instead of a series of individual routes. This is done by adding a skip_notify flag to the nl_info struct. The flag is used to skip sending of the notification in the fib code that actually inserts the route. Once the full route has been added, a notification is generated with all nexthops. ip6_route_multipath_add handles 3 use cases: new routes, route replace, and route append. The multipath notification generated needs to be consistent with the order of the nexthops and it should be consistent with the order in a FIB dump which means the route with the first nexthop needs to be used as the route reference. For the first 2 cases (new and replace), a reference to the route used to send the notification is obtained by saving the first route added. For the append case, the last route added is used to loop back to its first sibling route which is the first nexthop in the multipath route.

2017-02-04net: ipv6: Add support to dump multipath routes via RTA_MULTIPATH attributeDavid Ahern1-0/+10
IPv6 returns multipath routes as a series of individual routes making their display and handling by userspace different and more complicated than IPv4, putting the burden on the user to see that a route is part of a multipath route and internally creating a multipath route if desired (e.g., libnl does this as of commit 29b71371e764). This patch addresses this difference, allowing multipath routes to be returned using the RTA_MULTIPATH attribute. The end result is that IPv6 multipath routes can be treated and displayed in a format similar to IPv4: $ ip -6 ro ls vrf red 2001:db8:1::/120 dev eth1 proto kernel metric 256 pref medium 2001:db8:2::/120 dev eth2 proto kernel metric 256 pref medium 2001:db8:200::/120 metric 1024 nexthop via 2001:db8:1::2 dev eth1 weight 1 nexthop via 2001:db8:2::2 dev eth2 weight 1 Signed-off-by: David Ahern <dsa@cumulusnetworks.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

2017-02-01net: ipv6: add NLM_F_APPEND in notifications when applicableDavid Ahern1-0/+3
IPv6 does not set the NLM_F_APPEND flag in notifications to signal that a NEWROUTE is an append versus a new route or a replaced one. Add the flag if the request has it. Signed-off-by: David Ahern <dsa@cumulusnetworks.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
