net: ipv6: Allow shorthand delete of all nexthops in multipath route
IPv4 allows multipath routes to be deleted using just the prefix and length. For example: $ ip ro ls vrf red unreachable default metric 8192 1.1.1.0/24 nexthop via 10.100.1.254 dev eth1 weight 1 nexthop via 10.11.200.2 dev eth11.200 weight 1 10.11.200.0/24 dev eth11.200 proto kernel scope link src 10.11.200.3 10.100.1.0/24 dev eth1 proto kernel scope link src 10.100.1.3 $ ip ro del 1.1.1.0/24 vrf red $ ip ro ls vrf red unreachable default metric 8192 10.11.200.0/24 dev eth11.200 proto kernel scope link src 10.11.200.3 10.100.1.0/24 dev eth1 proto kernel scope link src 10.100.1.3 The same notation does not work with IPv6 because of how multipath routes are implemented for IPv6. For IPv6 only the first nexthop of a multipath route is deleted if the request contains only a prefix and length. This leads to unnecessary complexity in userspace dealing with IPv6 multipath routes. This patch allows all nexthops to be deleted without specifying each one in the delete request. Internally, this is done by walking the sibling list of the route matching the specifications given (prefix, length, metric, protocol, etc). $ ip -6 ro ls vrf red 2001:db8:1::/120 dev eth1 proto kernel metric 256 pref medium 2001:db8:2::/120 dev eth2 proto kernel metric 256 pref medium 2001:db8:200::/120 via 2001:db8:1::2 dev eth1 metric 1024 pref medium 2001:db8:200::/120 via 2001:db8:2::2 dev eth2 metric 1024 pref medium ... $ ip -6 ro del vrf red 2001:db8:200::/120 $ ip -6 ro ls vrf red 2001:db8:1::/120 dev eth1 proto kernel metric 256 pref medium 2001:db8:2::/120 dev eth2 proto kernel metric 256 pref medium ... Because IPv6 allows individual nexthops to be deleted without deleting the entire route, the ip6_route_multipath_del and non-multipath code path (ip6_route_del) have to be discriminated so that all nexthops are only deleted for the latter case. This is done by making the existing fc_type in fib6_config a u16 and then adding a new u16 field with fc_delete_all_nh as the first bit.
