A netlink dump callback can return a positive number to signal that more
information needs to be dumped or zero to signal that the dump is
complete. In the second case, the core netlink code will append the
NLMSG_DONE message to the skb in order to indicate to user space that
the dump is complete.
The nexthop dump callback always returns a positive number if nexthops
were filled in the provided skb, even if the dump is complete. This
means that a dump will span at least two recvmsg() calls as long as
nexthops are present. In the last recvmsg() call the dump callback will
not fill in any nexthops because the previous call indicated that the
dump should restart from the last dumped nexthop ID plus one.

This behavior is both inefficient and buggy. If the last nexthop to be
dumped had the maximum ID of 0xffffffff, then the dump will restart from
0 (0xffffffff + 1) and never end:
# ip nexthop add id $((2**32-1)) blackhole
# ip nexthop
id 4294967295 blackhole
id 4294967295 blackhole
[...]
Fix by adjusting the dump callback to return zero when the dump is
complete. After the fix only one recvmsg() call is made and the
NLMSG_DONE message is appended to the RTM_NEWNEXTHOP response:
# ip nexthop add id $((2**32-1)) blackhole
# strace -e sendto,recvmsg -s 5 ip nexthop

Note that if the NLMSG_DONE message cannot be appended because of size
limitations, then another recvmsg() will be needed, but the core netlink
code will not invoke the dump callback and simply reply with a
NLMSG_DONE message since it knows that the callback previously returned
zero.
Add a test that fails before the fix:
# ./fib_nexthops.sh -t basic

And passes after it:
# ./fib_nexthops.sh -t basic

We can optimize resilient nexthop group replaces by reducing the number of
synchronize_net calls. After commit 1005f19b93 ("net: nexthop: release
IPv6 per-cpu dsts when replacing a nexthop group") we always do a
synchronize_net because we must ensure no new dsts can be created for the
replaced group's removed nexthops, but we already did that when replacing
resilient groups, so if we always call synchronize_net after any group
type replacement we'll take care of both cases and reduce synchronize_net
calls for resilient groups.

When replacing a nexthop group, we must release the IPv6 per-cpu dsts of
the removed nexthop entries after an RCU grace period because they
contain references to the nexthop's net device and to the fib6 info.
With specific series of events[1] we can reach net device refcount
imbalance which is unrecoverable. IPv4 is not affected because dsts
don't take a refcount on the route.

$ ip nexthop list
id 200 via 2002:db8::2 dev bridge.10 scope link onlink
id 201 via 2002:db8::3 dev bridge scope link onlink
id 203 group 201/200
$ ip -6 route
2001:db8::10 nhid 203 metric 1024 pref medium
nexthop via 2002:db8::3 dev bridge weight 1 onlink
nexthop via 2002:db8::2 dev bridge.10 weight 1 onlink
Create rt6_info through one of the multipath legs, e.g.:
$ taskset -a -c 1 ./pkt_inj 24 bridge.10 2001:db8::10
(pkt_inj is just a custom packet generator, nothing special)
Then remove that leg from the group by replace (let's assume it is id
200 in this case):
$ ip nexthop replace id 203 group 201
Now remove the IPv6 route:
$ ip -6 route del 2001:db8::10/128
The route won't be really deleted due to the stale rt6_info holding 1
refcnt in nexthop id 200.
At this point we have the following reference count dependency:
(deleted) IPv6 route holds 1 reference over nhid 203
nh 203 holds 1 ref over id 201
nh 200 holds 1 ref over the net device and the route due to the stale
rt6_info
Now to create circular dependency between nh 200 and the IPv6 route, and
also to get a reference over nh 200, restore nhid 200 in the group:
$ ip nexthop replace id 203 group 201/200
And now we have a permanent circular dependncy because nhid 203 holds a
reference over nh 200 and 201, but the route holds a ref over nh 203 and
is deleted.
To trigger the bug just delete the group (nhid 203):
$ ip nexthop del id 203
It won't really be deleted due to the IPv6 route dependency, and now we
have 2 unlinked and deleted objects that reference each other: the group
and the IPv6 route. Since the group drops the reference it holds over its
entries at free time (i.e. its own refcount needs to drop to 0) that will
never happen and we get a permanent ref on them, since one of the entries
holds a reference over the IPv6 route it will also never be released.
At this point the dependencies are:
(deleted, only unlinked) IPv6 route holds reference over group nh 203
(deleted, only unlinked) group nh 203 holds reference over nh 201 and 200
nh 200 holds 1 ref over the net device and the route due to the stale
rt6_info
This is the last point where it can be fixed by running traffic through
nh 200, and specifically through the same CPU so the rt6_info (dst) will
get released due to the IPv6 genid, that in turn will free the IPv6
route, which in turn will free the ref count over the group nh 203.
If nh 200 is deleted at this point, it will never be released due to the
ref from the unlinked group 203, it will only be unlinked:
$ ip nexthop del id 200
$ ip nexthop
$
Now we can never release that stale rt6_info, we have IPv6 route with ref
over group nh 203, group nh 203 with ref over nh 200 and 201, nh 200 with
rt6_info (dst) with ref over the net device and the IPv6 route. All of
these objects are only unlinked, and cannot be released, thus they can't
release their ref counts.

syzkaller discovered memory leaks [1] that can be reduced to the
following commands:
# ip nexthop add id 1 blackhole
# devlink dev reload pci/0000:06:00.0
As part of the reload flow, mlxsw will unregister its netdevs and then
unregister from the nexthop notification chain. Before unregistering
from the notification chain, mlxsw will receive delete notifications for
nexthop objects using netdevs registered by mlxsw or their uppers. mlxsw
will not receive notifications for nexthops using netdevs that are not
dismantled as part of the reload flow. For example, the blackhole
nexthop above that internally uses the loopback netdev as its nexthop
device.
One way to fix this problem is to have listeners flush their nexthop
tables after unregistering from the notification chain. This is
error-prone as evident by this patch and also not symmetric with the
registration path where a listener receives a dump of all the existing
nexthops.
Therefore, fix this problem by replaying delete notifications for the
listener being unregistered. This is symmetric to the registration path
and also consistent with the netdev notification chain.
The above means that unregister_nexthop_notifier(), like
register_nexthop_notifier(), will have to take RTNL in order to iterate
over the existing nexthops and that any callers of the function cannot
hold RTNL. This is true for mlxsw and netdevsim, but not for the VXLAN
driver. To avoid a deadlock, change the latter to unregister its nexthop
listener without holding RTNL, making it symmetric to the registration
path.

The resilient nexthop group torture tests in fib_nexthop.sh exposed a
possible division by zero while replacing a resilient group [1]. The
division by zero occurs when the data path sees a resilient nexthop
group with zero buckets.
The tests replace a resilient nexthop group in a loop while traffic is
forwarded through it. The tests do not specify the number of buckets
while performing the replacement, resulting in the kernel allocating a
stub resilient table (i.e, 'struct nh_res_table') with zero buckets.
This table should never be visible to the data path, but the old nexthop
group (i.e., 'oldg') might still be used by the data path when the stub
table is assigned to it.
Fix this by only assigning the stub table to the old nexthop group after
making sure the group is no longer used by the data path.

After resilient next-hop groups have been added recently, there are two
types of multipath next-hop groups: the legacy "mpath", and the new
"resilient". Calling the legacy next-hop group type "mpath" is unfortunate,
because that describes the fact that a packet could be forwarded in one of
several paths, which is also true for the resilient next-hop groups.
Therefore, to make the naming clearer, rename various artifacts to reflect
the assumptions made. Therefore as of this patch:
- The flag for multipath groups is nh_grp_entry::is_multipath. This
includes the legacy and resilient groups, as well as any future group
types that behave as multipath groups.
Functions that assume this have "mpath" in the name.
- The flag for legacy multipath groups is nh_grp_entry::hash_threshold.
Functions that assume this have "hthr" in the name.
- The flag for resilient groups is nh_grp_entry::resilient.
Functions that assume this have "res" in the name.
Besides the above, struct nh_grp_entry::mpath was renamed to ::hthr as
well.
UAPI artifacts were obviously left intact.

The kernel periodically checks the idle time of nexthop buckets to

When the resilient nexthop group is offloaded to hardware, the kernel
will not see activity on nexthop buckets unless it is reported from
hardware.

Implement the following notifications towards drivers:
- NEXTHOP_EVENT_REPLACE, when a resilient nexthop group is created.
- NEXTHOP_EVENT_BUCKET_REPLACE any time there is a change in assignment of
next hops to hash table buckets. That includes replacements, deletions,
and delayed upkeep cycles. Some bucket notifications can be vetoed by the
driver, to make it possible to propagate bucket busy-ness flags from the
HW back to the algorithm. Some are however forced, e.g. if a next hop is
deleted, all buckets that use this next hop simply must be migrated,
whether the HW wishes so or not.
- NEXTHOP_EVENT_RES_TABLE_PRE_REPLACE, before a resilient nexthop group is
replaced. Usually the driver will get the bucket notifications as well,
and could veto those. But in some cases, a bucket may not be migrated
immediately, but during delayed upkeep, and that is too late to roll the
transaction back. This notification allows the driver to take a look and
veto the new proposed group up front, before anything is committed.

At this moment, there is only one type of next-hop group: an mpath group,
which implements the hash-threshold algorithm.
To select a next hop, hash-threshold algorithm first assigns a range of
hashes to each next hop in the group, and then selects the next hop by
comparing the SKB hash with the individual ranges. When a next hop is
removed from the group, the ranges are recomputed, which leads to
reassignment of parts of hash space from one next hop to another. While
there will usually be some overlap between the previous and the new
distribution, some traffic flows change the next hop that they resolve to.
That causes problems e.g. as established TCP connections are reset, because
the traffic is forwarded to a server that is not familiar with the
connection.
Resilient hashing is a technique to address the above problem. Resilient
next-hop group has another layer of indirection between the group itself
and its constituent next hops: a hash table. The selection algorithm uses a
straightforward modulo operation to choose a hash bucket, and then reads
the next hop that this bucket contains, and forwards traffic there.
This indirection brings an important feature. In the hash-threshold
algorithm, the range of hashes associated with a next hop must be
continuous. With a hash table, mapping between the hash table buckets and
the individual next hops is arbitrary. Therefore when a next hop is deleted
the buckets that held it are simply reassigned to other next hops. When
weights of next hops in a group are altered, it may be possible to choose a
subset of buckets that are currently not used for forwarding traffic, and
use those to satisfy the new next-hop distribution demands, keeping the
"busy" buckets intact. This way, established flows are ideally kept being
forwarded to the same endpoints through the same paths as before the
next-hop group change.
In a nutshell, the algorithm works as follows. Each next hop has a number
of buckets that it wants to have, according to its weight and the number of
buckets in the hash table. In case of an event that might cause bucket
allocation change, the numbers for individual next hops are updated,
similarly to how ranges are updated for mpath group next hops. Following
that, a new "upkeep" algorithm runs, and for idle buckets that belong to a
next hop that is currently occupying more buckets than it wants (it is
"overweight"), it migrates the buckets to one of the next hops that has
fewer buckets than it wants (it is "underweight"). If, after this, there
are still underweight next hops, another upkeep run is scheduled to a
future time.
Chances are there are not enough "idle" buckets to satisfy the new demands.
The algorithm has knobs to select both what it means for a bucket to be
idle, and for whether and when to forcefully migrate buckets if there keeps
being an insufficient number of idle buckets.
There are three users of the resilient data structures.
- The forwarding code accesses them under RCU, and does not modify them
except for updating the time a selected bucket was last used.
- Netlink code, running under RTNL, which may modify the data.
- The delayed upkeep code, which may modify the data. This runs unlocked,
and mutual exclusion between the RTNL code and the delayed upkeep is
maintained by canceling the delayed work synchronously before the RTNL
code touches anything. Later it restarts the delayed work if necessary.
The RTNL code has to implement next-hop group replacement, next hop
removal, etc. For removal, the mpath code uses a neat trick of having a
backup next hop group structure, doing the necessary changes offline, and
then RCU-swapping them in. However, the hash tables for resilient hashing
are about an order of magnitude larger than the groups themselves (the size
might be e.g. 4K entries), and it was felt that keeping two of them is an
overkill. Both the primary next-hop group and the spare therefore use the
same resilient table, and writers are careful to keep all references valid
for the forwarding code. The hash table references next-hop group entries
from the next-hop group that is currently in the primary role (i.e. not
spare). During the transition from primary to spare, the table references a
mix of both the primary group and the spare. When a next hop is deleted,
the corresponding buckets are not set to NULL, but instead marked as empty,
so that the pointer is valid and can be used by the forwarding code. The
buckets are then migrated to a new next-hop group entry during upkeep. The
only times that the hash table is invalid is the very beginning and very
end of its lifetime. Between those points, it is always kept valid.
This patch introduces the core support code itself. It does not handle
notifications towards drivers, which are kept as if the group were an mpath
one. It does not handle netlink either. The only bit currently exposed to
user space is the new next-hop group type, and that is currently bounced.
There is therefore no way to actually access this code.

- RTM_NEWNEXTHOP et.al. that handle resilient groups will have a new nested
attribute, NHA_RES_GROUP, whose elements are attributes NHA_RES_GROUP_*.
- RTM_NEWNEXTHOPBUCKET et.al. is a suite of new messages that will
currently serve only for dumping of individual buckets of resilient next
hop groups. For nexthop group buckets, these messages will carry a nested
attribute NHA_RES_BUCKET, whose elements are attributes NHA_RES_BUCKET_*.
There are several reasons why a new suite of messages is created for
nexthop buckets instead of overloading the information on the existing
RTM_{NEW,DEL,GET}NEXTHOP messages.
First, a nexthop group can contain a large number of nexthop buckets (4k
is not unheard of). This imposes limits on the amount of information that
can be encoded for each nexthop bucket given a netlink message is limited
to 64k bytes.
Second, while RTM_NEWNEXTHOPBUCKET is only used for notifications at
this point, in the future it can be extended to provide user space with
control over nexthop buckets configuration.
- The new group type is NEXTHOP_GRP_TYPE_RES. Note that nexthop code is
adjusted to bounce groups with that type for now.

consider two flags. This might prove costly in the datapath. Therefore,

Currently, replace assumes that the new group that is given is a
fully-formed object. But mpath groups really only have one attribute, and
that is the constituent next hop configuration. This may not be universally
true. From the usability perspective, it is desirable to allow the replace
operation to adjust just the constituent next hop configuration and leave
the group attributes as such intact.
But the object that keeps track of whether an attribute was or was not
given is the nh_config object, not the next hop or next-hop group. To allow
(selective) attribute updates during NH group replacement, propagate `cfg'
to replace_nexthop() and further to replace_nexthop_grp().

As far as user space is concerned, blackhole nexthops do not have a
nexthop device and therefore should not be affected by the
administrative or carrier state of any netdev.
However, when the loopback netdev goes down all the blackhole nexthops
are flushed. This happens because internally the kernel associates
blackhole nexthops with the loopback netdev.
This behavior is both confusing to those not familiar with kernel
internals and also diverges from the legacy API where blackhole IPv4
routes are not flushed when the loopback netdev goes down:
# ip route add blackhole 198.51.100.0/24
# ip link set dev lo down
# ip route show 198.51.100.0/24
blackhole 198.51.100.0/24
Blackhole IPv6 routes are flushed, but at least user space knows that
they are associated with the loopback netdev:
# ip -6 route show 2001:db8:1::/64
blackhole 2001:db8:1::/64 dev lo metric 1024 pref medium
Fix this by only flushing blackhole nexthops when the loopback netdev is
unregistered.

The dump operations need to keep state from one invocation to another. A

Dumping of buckets will end up having to iterate over next hops as well,
and it would be nice to be able to reuse the iteration logic with the NH
dumper. The fact that the logic currently relies on fixed index to the
.args array, and the indices would have to be coordinated between the two
dumpers, makes this somewhat awkward.

these attributes except when NHA_FDB attribute is present--then it accepts

NHA_FDB validation that takes place before, in rtm_to_nh_config(), already
bounces NHA_OIF, NHA_BLACKHOLE, NHA_ENCAP and NHA_ENCAP_TYPE. Yet further
back, NHA_GROUPS and NHA_MASTER are bounced unconditionally.
But that still leaves NHA_GATEWAY as an attribute that would be accepted in
FDB nexthop groups (with no meaning), so long as it keeps the address
family as unspecified:
# ip nexthop add id 1 fdb via 127.0.0.1
# ip nexthop add id 10 fdb via default group 1
The nexthop code is still relatively new and likely not used very broadly,
and the FDB bits are newer still. Even though there is a reproducer out
there, it relies on an improbable gateway arguments "via default", "via
all" or "via any". Given all this, I believe it is OK to reformulate the
