If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. >From foo@baz Wed Sep 30 05:25:07 CEST 2015 From: Roopa Prabhu <roopa@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Tue, 8 Sep 2015 10:53:04 -0700 Subject: ipv6: fix multipath route replace error recovery From: Roopa Prabhu <roopa@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> [ Upstream commit 6b9ea5a64ed5eeb3f68f2e6fcce0ed1179801d1e ] Problem: The ecmp route replace support for ipv6 in the kernel, deletes the existing ecmp route too early, ie when it installs the first nexthop. If there is an error in installing the subsequent nexthops, its too late to recover the already deleted existing route leaving the fib in an inconsistent state. This patch reduces the possibility of this by doing the following: a) Changes the existing multipath route add code to a two stage process: build rt6_infos + insert them ip6_route_add rt6_info creation code is moved into ip6_route_info_create. b) This ensures that most errors are caught during building rt6_infos and we fail early c) Separates multipath add and del code. Because add needs the special two stage mode in a) and delete essentially does not care. d) In any event if the code fails during inserting a route again, a warning is printed (This should be unlikely) Before the patch: $ip -6 route show 3000:1000:1000:1000::2 via fe80::202:ff:fe00:b dev swp49s0 metric 1024 3000:1000:1000:1000::2 via fe80::202:ff:fe00:d dev swp49s1 metric 1024 3000:1000:1000:1000::2 via fe80::202:ff:fe00:f dev swp49s2 metric 1024 /* Try replacing the route with a duplicate nexthop */ $ip -6 route change 3000:1000:1000:1000::2/128 nexthop via fe80::202:ff:fe00:b dev swp49s0 nexthop via fe80::202:ff:fe00:d dev swp49s1 nexthop via fe80::202:ff:fe00:d dev swp49s1 RTNETLINK answers: File exists $ip -6 route show /* previously added ecmp route 3000:1000:1000:1000::2 dissappears from * kernel */ After the patch: $ip -6 route show 3000:1000:1000:1000::2 via fe80::202:ff:fe00:b dev swp49s0 metric 1024 3000:1000:1000:1000::2 via fe80::202:ff:fe00:d dev swp49s1 metric 1024 3000:1000:1000:1000::2 via fe80::202:ff:fe00:f dev swp49s2 metric 1024 /* Try replacing the route with a duplicate nexthop */ $ip -6 route change 3000:1000:1000:1000::2/128 nexthop via fe80::202:ff:fe00:b dev swp49s0 nexthop via fe80::202:ff:fe00:d dev swp49s1 nexthop via fe80::202:ff:fe00:d dev swp49s1 RTNETLINK answers: File exists $ip -6 route show 3000:1000:1000:1000::2 via fe80::202:ff:fe00:b dev swp49s0 metric 1024 3000:1000:1000:1000::2 via fe80::202:ff:fe00:d dev swp49s1 metric 1024 3000:1000:1000:1000::2 via fe80::202:ff:fe00:f dev swp49s2 metric 1024 Fixes: 27596472473a ("ipv6: fix ECMP route replacement") Signed-off-by: Roopa Prabhu <roopa@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Reviewed-by: Nikolay Aleksandrov <nikolay@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Acked-by: Nicolas Dichtel <nicolas.dichtel@xxxxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: David S.
