net, neigh: Enable state migration between NUD_PERMANENT and NTF_USE
Currently, it is not possible to migrate a neighbor entry between NUD_PERMANENT state and NTF_USE flag with a dynamic NUD state from a user space control plane. Similarly, it is not possible to add/remove NTF_EXT_LEARNED flag from an existing neighbor entry in combination with NTF_USE flag. This is due to the latter directly calling into neigh_event_send() without any meta data updates as happening in __neigh_update(). Thus, to enable this use case, extend the latter with a NEIGH_UPDATE_F_USE flag where we break the NUD_PERMANENT state in particular so that a latter neigh_event_send() is able to re-resolve a neighbor entry. Before fix, NUD_PERMANENT -> NUD_* & NTF_USE: # ./ip/ip n replace 192.168.178.30 dev enp5s0 lladdr f4:8c:50:5e:71:9a # ./ip/ip n 192.168.178.30 dev enp5s0 lladdr f4:8c:50:5e:71:9a PERMANENT [...] # ./ip/ip n replace 192.168.178.30 dev enp5s0 use extern_learn # ./ip/ip n 192.168.178.30 dev enp5s0 lladdr f4:8c:50:5e:71:9a PERMANENT [...] As can be seen, despite the admin-triggered replace, the entry remains in the NUD_PERMANENT state. After fix, NUD_PERMANENT -> NUD_* & NTF_USE: # ./ip/ip n replace 192.168.178.30 dev enp5s0 lladdr f4:8c:50:5e:71:9a # ./ip/ip n 192.168.178.30 dev enp5s0 lladdr f4:8c:50:5e:71:9a PERMANENT [...] # ./ip/ip n replace 192.168.178.30 dev enp5s0 use extern_learn # ./ip/ip n 192.168.178.30 dev enp5s0 lladdr f4:8c:50:5e:71:9a extern_learn REACHABLE [...] # ./ip/ip n 192.168.178.30 dev enp5s0 lladdr f4:8c:50:5e:71:9a extern_learn STALE [...] # ./ip/ip n replace 192.168.178.30 dev enp5s0 lladdr f4:8c:50:5e:71:9a # ./ip/ip n 192.168.178.30 dev enp5s0 lladdr f4:8c:50:5e:71:9a PERMANENT [...] After the fix, the admin-triggered replace switches to a dynamic state from the NTF_USE flag which triggered a new neighbor resolution. Likewise, we can transition back from there, if needed, into NUD_PERMANENT. Similar before/after behavior can be observed for below transitions: Before fix, NTF_USE -> NTF_USE | NTF_EXT_LEARNED -> NTF_USE: # ./ip/ip n replace 192.168.178.30 dev enp5s0 use # ./ip/ip n 192.168.178.30 dev enp5s0 lladdr f4:8c:50:5e:71:9a REACHABLE [...] # ./ip/ip n replace 192.168.178.30 dev enp5s0 use extern_learn # ./ip/ip n 192.168.178.30 dev enp5s0 lladdr f4:8c:50:5e:71:9a REACHABLE [...] After fix, NTF_USE -> NTF_USE | NTF_EXT_LEARNED -> NTF_USE: # ./ip/ip n replace 192.168.178.30 dev enp5s0 use # ./ip/ip n 192.168.178.30 dev enp5s0 lladdr f4:8c:50:5e:71:9a REACHABLE [...] # ./ip/ip n replace 192.168.178.30 dev enp5s0 use extern_learn # ./ip/ip n 192.168.178.30 dev enp5s0 lladdr f4:8c:50:5e:71:9a extern_learn REACHABLE [...] # ./ip/ip n replace 192.168.178.30 dev enp5s0 use # ./ip/ip n 192.168.178.30 dev enp5s0 lladdr f4:8c:50:5e:71:9a REACHABLE [..] Signed-off-by: Daniel Borkmann <daniel@iogearbox.net> Acked-by: Roopa Prabhu <roopa@nvidia.com> Signed-off-by: David S.
