When notifications are sent about FDB activity, and an FDB entry with
several remotes is removed, the notification is sent only for the first
destination. That makes it impossible to distinguish between the case
where only this first remote is removed, and the one where the FDB entry
is removed as a whole.
Therefore send one notification for each remote of a removed FDB entry.

identify which RDST should be marked as offloaded, an

Problem:
In vxlan_newlink, a default fdb entry is added before register_netdev.
The default fdb creation function also notifies user-space of the
fdb entry on the vxlan device which user-space does not know about yet.
(RTM_NEWNEIGH goes before RTM_NEWLINK for the same ifindex).
This patch fixes the user-space netlink notification ordering issue
with the following changes:
- decouple fdb notify from fdb create.
- Move fdb notify after register_netdev.
- Call rtnl_configure_link in vxlan newlink handler to notify

But we could not treat ttl == 0 as "use the inner TTL", because that would be

change, and breaking real use cases.
So add a different attribute IFLA_VXLAN_TTL_INHERIT when "ttl inherit" is

Unlike ip tunnels, now vxlan doesn't do any pmtu update for
upper dst pmtu, even if it doesn't match the lower dst pmtu
any more.
The problem can be reproduced when reducing the vxlan lower
dev's pmtu when running netperf. In jianlin's testing, the
performance went to 1/7 of the previous.
This patch is to update the upper dst pmtu to match the lower
dst pmtu on tx path so that packets can be sent out even when
lower dev's pmtu has been changed.
It also works for metadata dst.
Note that this patch doesn't process any pmtu icmp packet.
But even in the future, the support for pmtu icmp packets
process of udp tunnels will also needs this.
The same thing will be done for geneve in another patch.

Stefano Brivio says:
Commit a985343ba9 ("vxlan: refactor verification and
application of configuration") introduced a change in the
behaviour of initial MTU setting: earlier, the MTU for a link
created on top of a given lower device, without an initial MTU
specification, was set to the MTU of the lower device minus
headroom as a result of this path in vxlan_dev_configure():
if (!conf->mtu)
dev->mtu = lowerdev->mtu -
(use_ipv6 ? VXLAN6_HEADROOM : VXLAN_HEADROOM);
which is now gone. Now, the initial MTU, in absence of a
configured value, is simply set by ether_setup() to ETH_DATA_LEN
(1500 bytes).
This breaks userspace expectations in case the MTU of
the lower device is higher than 1500 bytes minus headroom.
This patch restores the previous behaviour on newlink operation. Since
max_mtu can be negative and we update dev->mtu directly, also check it
for valid minimum.

In the case that GRO is turned on and the original received packet is

However, since b7fe10e5ebac("gro: Fix remcsum offload to deal with frags

hence we pass over it and the inner L4 validation mistakenly reckons

The vxlan_dev_configure function was mixing validation and application of
the vxlan configuration; this could easily lead to bugs with the changelink
operation, as it was hard to see if the function wcould return an error
after parts of the configuration had already been applied.
This commit splits validation and application out of vxlan_dev_configure as
separate functions to make it clearer where error returns are allowed and
where the vxlan_dev or net_device may be configured. Log messages in these
functions are removed, as it is generally unexpected to find error output
for netlink requests in the kernel log. Userspace should be able to handle
errors based on the error codes returned via netlink just fine.
In addition, some validation and initialization is moved to vxlan_validate
and vxlan_setup respectively to improve grouping of similar settings.
Finally, this also fixes two actual bugs:
* if set, conf->mtu would overwrite dev->mtu in each changelink operation,
reverting other changes of dev->mtu
* the "if (!conf->dst_port)" branch would never be run, as conf->dst_port
was set in vxlan_setup before. This caused VXLAN-GPE to use the same
default port as other VXLAN sockets instead of the intended IANA-assigned
4790.
