Currently, the following case doesn't use DCTCP, even if it should:
A responder has f.e. Cubic as system wide default, but for a specific
route to the initiating host, DCTCP is being set in RTAX_CC_ALGO. The
initiating host then uses DCTCP as congestion control, but since the
initiator sets ECT(0), tcp_ecn_create_request() doesn't set ecn_ok,
and we have to fall back to Reno after 3WHS completes.
We were thinking on how to solve this in a minimal, non-intrusive
way without bloating tcp_ecn_create_request() needlessly: lets cache
the CA ecn option flag in RTAX_FEATURES. In other words, when ECT(0)
is set on the SYN packet, set ecn_ok=1 iff route RTAX_FEATURES
contains the unexposed (internal-only) DST_FEATURE_ECN_CA. This allows
to only do a single metric feature lookup inside tcp_ecn_create_request().

Currently, the lwtunnel state resides in per-protocol data. This is
a problem if we encapsulate ipv6 traffic in an ipv4 tunnel (or vice versa).
The xmit function of the tunnel does not know whether the packet has been
routed to it by ipv4 or ipv6, yet it needs the lwtstate data. Moving the
lwtstate data to dst_entry makes such inter-protocol tunneling possible.
As a bonus, this brings a nice diffstat.

Like the ipv4 patch with a similar title, this adds a sysctl to allow
the user to change routing behavior based on whether or not the
interface associated with the nexthop was an up or down link. The
default setting preserves the current behavior, but anyone that enables
it will notice that nexthops on down interfaces will no longer be
selected:
net.ipv6.conf.all.ignore_routes_with_linkdown = 0
net.ipv6.conf.default.ignore_routes_with_linkdown = 0
net.ipv6.conf.lo.ignore_routes_with_linkdown = 0
...
When the above sysctls are set, not only will link status be reported to
userspace, but an indication that a nexthop is dead and will not be used
is also reported.
1000::/8 via 7000::2 dev p7p1 metric 1024 dead linkdown pref medium
1000::/8 via 8000::2 dev p8p1 metric 1024 pref medium

When replacing an IPv6 multipath route with "ip route replace", i.e.
NLM_F_CREATE | NLM_F_REPLACE, fib6_add_rt2node() replaces only first
matching route without fixing its siblings, resulting in corrupted
siblings linked list; removing one of the siblings can then end in an
infinite loop.
IPv6 ECMP implementation is a bit different from IPv4 so that route
replacement cannot work in exactly the same way. This should be a
reasonable approximation:
1. If the new route is ECMP-able and there is a matching ECMP-able one
already, replace it and all its siblings (if any).
2. If the new route is ECMP-able and no matching ECMP-able route exists,
replace first matching non-ECMP-able (if any) or just add the new one.
3. If the new route is not ECMP-able, replace first matching
non-ECMP-able route (if any) or add the new route.
We also need to remove the NLM_F_REPLACE flag after replacing old
route(s) by first nexthop of an ECMP route so that each subsequent
nexthop does not replace previous one.

If there are only IPv6 source specific default routes present, the
host gets -ENETUNREACH on e.g. connect() because ip6_dst_lookup_tail
calls ip6_route_output first, and given source address any, it fails,
and ip6_route_get_saddr is never called.
The change is to use the ip6_route_get_saddr, even if the initial
ip6_route_output fails, and then doing ip6_route_output _again_ after
we have appropriate source address available.
Note that this is '99% fix' to the problem; a correct fix would be to
do route lookups only within addrconf.c when picking a source address,
and never call ip6_route_output before source address has been

inet_peer is indexed by the dst address alone. However, the fib6 tree
could have multiple routing entries (rt6_info) for the same dst. For
example,
1. A /128 dst via multiple gateways.
2. A RTF_CACHE route cloned from a /128 route.
In the above cases, all of them will share the same metrics and
step on each other.
This patch will steer away from inet_peer's metrics and use
dst_cow_metrics_generic() for everything.
Change Highlights:
1. Remove rt6_cow_metrics() which currently acquires metrics from
inet_peer for DST_HOST route (i.e. /128 route).
2. Add rt6i_pmtu to take care of the pmtu update to avoid creating a
full size metrics just to override the RTAX_MTU.
3. After (2), the RTF_CACHE route can also share the metrics with its
dst.from route, by:
dst_init_metrics(&cache_rt->dst, dst_metrics_ptr(cache_rt->dst.from), true);
4. Stop creating RTF_CACHE route by cloning another RTF_CACHE route. Instead,
directly clone from rt->dst.
[ Currently, cloning from another RTF_CACHE is only possible during
rt6_do_redirect(). Also, the old clone is removed from the tree
immediately after the new clone is added. ]
In case of cloning from an older redirect RTF_CACHE, it should work as
before.
In case of cloning from an older pmtu RTF_CACHE, this patch will forget
the pmtu and re-learn it (if there is any) from the redirected route.
The _rt6i_peer and DST_METRICS_FORCE_OVERWRITE will be removed
in the next cleanup patch.

It is a prep work for the later bug-fix patch which will stop /128 route
from disappearing after pmtu update.
The later bug-fix patch will allow a /128 route and its RTF_CACHE clone
both exist at the same fib6_node. To do this, we need to prepare the
existing fib6 tree search to expect RTF_CACHE for /128 route.
Note that the fn->leaf is sorted by rt6i_metric. Hence,
RTF_CACHE (if there is any) is always at the front. This property
leads to the following:
1. When doing ip6_route_del(), it should honor the RTF_CACHE flag which
the caller is used to ask for deleting clone or non-clone.
The rtm_to_fib6_config() should also check the RTM_F_CLONED and
then set RTF_CACHE accordingly so that:
- 'ip -6 r del...' will make ip6_route_del() to delete a route
and all its clones. Note that its clones is flushed by fib6_del()
- 'ip -6 r flush table cache' will make ip6_route_del() to
only delete clone(s).
2. Exclude RTF_CACHE from addrconf_get_prefix_route() which
should not configure on a cloned route.
3. No change is need for rt6_device_match() since it currently could
return a RTF_CACHE clone route, so the later bug-fix patch will not
affect it.

IP addresses are often stored in netlink attributes. Add generic functions
to do that.
For nla_put_in_addr, it would be nicer to pass struct in_addr but this is
not used universally throughout the kernel, in way too many places __be32 is
used to store IPv4 address.

The ipv6 code uses a mixture of coding styles. In some instances check for NULL
pointer is done as x == NULL and sometimes as !x. !x is preferred according to
checkpatch and this patch makes the code consistent by adopting the latter
form.

This makes it possible to retain the route preference when RAs are handled in

After my change to neigh_hh_init to obtain the protocol from the
neigh_table there are no more users of protocol in struct dst_ops.
Remove the protocol field from dst_ops and all of it's initializers.
