<id>urn:sha1:138118ec96cbfc303c1d7cc05fbb2caf8382c95b</id>
<content type='text'>
Add IPv6 equivalent to fib_lookup. Does a fib lookup, including rules,
but returns a FIB entry, fib6_info, rather than a dst based rt6_info.
fib6_lookup is any where from 140% (MULTIPLE_TABLES config disabled)
to 60% faster than any of the dst based lookup methods (without custom
rules) and 25% faster with custom rules (e.g., l3mdev rule).

Since the lookup function has a completely different signature,
fib6_rule_action is split into 2 paths: the existing one is
renamed __fib6_rule_action and a new one for the fib6_info path
is added. fib6_rule_action decides which to call based on the
lookup_ptr. If it is fib6_table_lookup then the new path is taken.

Caller must hold rcu lock as no reference is taken on the returned
fib entry.

Move source address lookup from fib6_rule_action to a helper. It will be
used in a later patch by a second variant for fib6_rule_action.

<content type='text'>
IPv6 does path selection for multipath routes deep in the lookup
functions. The next patch adds L4 hash option and needs the skb
for the forward path. To get the skb to the relevant FIB lookup
functions it needs to go through the fib rules layer, so add a
lookup_data argument to the fib_lookup_arg struct.

Dissect flow in fwd path if fib rules require it. Controlled by
a flag to avoid penatly for the common case. Flag is set when fib
rules with sport, dport and proto match that require flow dissect
are installed. Also passes the dissected hash keys to the multipath
hash function when applicable to avoid dissecting the flow again.
icmp packets will continue to use inner header for hash
calculations.

These pernet_operations register and unregister
net::ipv6.fib6_rules_ops, which are used for
routing. It looks like there are no pernet_operations,
which send ipv6 packages to another net, so we
are able to mark them as async.

If the user hasn't installed any custom rules, don't go through the
whole FIB rules layer. This is pretty similar to f4530fa574df (ipv4:
Avoid overhead when no custom FIB rules are installed).

Using a micro-benchmark module [1], timing ip6_route_output() with
get_cycles(), with 40,000 routes in the main routing table, before this
patch:

At the frequency of the host during the bench (~ 3.7 GHz), this is
about a 100 ns difference on the median value.

A next step would be to collapse local and main tables, as in
0ddcf43d5d4a (ipv4: FIB Local/MAIN table collapse).

<content type='text'>
Allow users of the FIB notification chain to receive a complete view of
the IPv6 FIB rules upon registration to the chain.

The integrity of the dump is ensured by a per-family sequence counter
that is incremented (under RTNL) whenever a rule is added or deleted.

All the sequence counters are read (under RTNL) and summed, prior and
after the dump. In case the counters differ, then the dump is either
restarted or the registration fails.
