<title>vrf: check accept_source_route on the original netdevice</title>

Configuration check to accept source route IP options should be made on
the incoming netdevice when the skb-&gt;dev is an l3mdev master. The route
lookup for the source route next hop also needs the incoming netdev.

v2-&gt;v3:
- Simplify by passing the original netdevice down the stack (per David
  Ahern).

<title>ipv4: Allow amount of dirty memory from fib resizing to be controllable</title>
<updated>2019-03-21T20:29:53Z</updated>

<link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='https://universe.0xinfinity.dev/distro/kernel/commit/?id=9ab948a91b2c2abc8e82845c0e61f4b1683e3a4f'/>
<id>urn:sha1:9ab948a91b2c2abc8e82845c0e61f4b1683e3a4f</id>
<content type='text'>
fib_trie implementation calls synchronize_rcu when a certain amount of
pages are dirty from freed entries. The number of pages was determined
experimentally in 2009 (commit c3059477fce2d).

At the current setting, synchronize_rcu is called often -- 51 times in a
second in one test with an average of an 8 msec delay adding a fib entry.
The total impact is a lot of slow down modifying the fib. This is seen
in the output of 'time' - the difference between real time and sys+user.
For example, using 720,022 single path routes and 'ip -batch'[1]:

    $ time ./ip -batch ipv4/routes-1-hops
    real    0m14.214s
    user    0m2.513s
    sys     0m6.783s

So roughly 35% of the actual time to install the routes is from the ip
command getting scheduled out, most notably due to synchronize_rcu (this
is observed using 'perf sched timehist').

This patch makes the amount of dirty memory configurable between 64k where
the synchronize_rcu is called often (small, low end systems that are memory
sensitive) to 64M where synchronize_rcu is called rarely during a large
FIB change (for high end systems with lots of memory). The default is 512kB
which corresponds to the current setting of 128 pages with a 4kB page size.

As an example, at 16MB the worst interval shows 4 calls to synchronize_rcu
in a second blocking for up to 30 msec in a single instance, and a total
of almost 100 msec across the 4 calls in the second. The trade off is
allowing FIB entries to consume more memory in a given time window but
but with much better fib insertion rates (~30% increase in prefixes/sec).
With this patch and net.ipv4.fib_sync_mem set to 16MB, the same batch
file runs in:

    $ time ./ip -batch ipv4/routes-1-hops
    real    0m9.692s
    user    0m2.491s
    sys     0m6.769s

So the dead time is reduced to about 1/2 second or &lt;5% of the real time.

[1] 'ip' modified to not request ACK messages which improves route
    insertion times by about 20%

<title>ipv4: Add ICMPv6 support when parse route ipproto</title>

<id>urn:sha1:5e1a99eae84999a2536f50a0beaf5d5262337f40</id>
<content type='text'>
For ip rules, we need to use 'ipproto ipv6-icmp' to match ICMPv6 headers.
But for ip -6 route, currently we only support tcp, udp and icmp.

Add ICMPv6 support so we can match ipv6-icmp rules for route lookup.

v2: As David Ahern and Sabrina Dubroca suggested, Add an argument to
rtm_getroute_parse_ip_proto() to handle ICMP/ICMPv6 with different family.
