b1d63265ac Flush remaining routes from the routing table during VNET shutdown.
Summary:
This fixes rtentry leak for the cloned interfaces created inside the
 VNET.

PR:	253998
Reported by:	rashey at superbox.pl
MFC after:	3 days

Loopback teardown order is `SI_SUB_INIT_IF`, which happens after `SI_SUB_PROTO_DOMAIN` (route table teardown).
Thus, any route table operations are too late to schedule.
As the intent of the vnet teardown procedures to minimise the amount of effort by doing global cleanups instead of per-interface ones, address this by adding a relatively light-weight routing table cleanup function, `rib_flush_routes()`.
It removes all remaining routes from the routing table and schedules the deletion, which will happen later, when `rtables_destroy()` waits for the current epoch to finish.

Test Plan:
```
set_skip:set_skip_group_lo  ->  passed  [0.053s]
tail -n 200 /var/log/messages | grep rtentry
```

5964172837 Simplify ifa/ifp refcounting in the routing stack.
The routing stack control depends on quite a tree of functions to
 determine the proper attributes of a route such as a source address (ifa)
 or transmit ifp of a route.

When actually inserting a route, the stack needs to ensure that ifa and ifp
 points to the entities that are still valid.
Validity means slightly more than just pointer validity - stack need guarantee
 that the provided objects are not scheduled for deletion.

Currently, callers either ignore it (most ifp parts, historically) or try to
 use refcounting (ifa parts). Even in case of ifa refcounting it's not always
 implemented in fully-safe manner. For example, some codepaths inside
 rt_getifa_fib() are referencing ifa while not holding any locks, resulting in
 possibility of referencing scheduled-for-deletion ifa.

Instead of trying to fix all of the callers by enforcing proper refcounting,
 switch to a different model.
As the rib_action() already requires epoch, do not require any stability guarantees
 other than the epoch-provided one.
Use newly-added conditional versions of the refcounting functions
 (ifa_try_ref(), if_try_ref()) and fail if any of these fails.

151ec796a2 Fix the design problem with delayed algorithm sync.
Currently, if the immutable algorithm like bsearch or radix_lockless
 receives rtable update notification, it schedules algorithm rebuild.
This rebuild is executed by the callout after ~50 milliseconds.

It is possible that a script adding an interface address and than route
 with the gateway bound to that address will fail. It can happen due
 to the fact that fib is not updated by the time the route addition
 request arrives.

Fix this by allowing synchronous algorithm rebuilds based on certain
 conditions. By default, these conditions assume:
1) less than net.route.algo.fib_sync_limit=100 routes
2) routes without gateway.

* Move algo instance build entirely under rib WLOCK.
 Rib lock is only used for control plane (except radix algo, but there
  are no rebuilds).
* Add rib_walk_ext_locked() function to allow RIB iteration with
 rib lock already held.
* Fix rare potential callout use-after-free for fds by binding fd
 callout to the relevant rib rmlock. In that case, callout_stop()
 under rib WLOCK guarantees no callout will be executed afterwards.

81728a538d Split rtinit() into multiple functions.
rtinit[1]() is a function used to add or remove interface address prefix routes,
  similar to ifa_maintain_loopback_route().
It was intended to be family-agnostic. There is a problem with this approach
 in reality.

1) IPv6 code does not use it for the ifa routes. There is a separate layer,
  nd6_prelist_(), providing interface for maintaining interface routes. Its part,
  responsible for the actual route table interaction, mimics rtenty() code.

2) rtinit tries to combine multiple actions in the same function: constructing
  proper route attributes and handling iterations over multiple fibs, for the
  non-zero net.add_addr_allfibs use case. It notably increases the code complexity.

3) dstaddr handling. flags parameter re-uses RTF_ flags. As there is no special flag
 for p2p connections, host routes and p2p routes are handled in the same way.
 Additionally, mapping IFA flags to RTF flags makes the interface pretty messy.
 It make rtinit() to clash with ifa_mainain_loopback_route() for IPV4 interface
 aliases.

4) rtinit() is the last customer passing non-masked prefixes to rib_action(),
 complicating rib_action() implementation.

5) rtinit() coupled ifa announce/withdrawal notifications, producing "false positive"
 ifa messages in certain corner cases.

To address all these points, the following has been done:

* rtinit() has been split into multiple functions:
- Route attribute construction were moved to the per-address-family functions,
 dealing with (2), (3) and (4).
- funnction providing net.add_addr_allfibs handling and route rtsock notificaions
 is the new routing table inteface.
- rtsock ifa notificaion has been moved out as well. resulting set of funcion are only
 responsible for the actual route notifications.

Side effects:
* /32 alias does not result in interface routes (/32 route and "host" route)
* RTF_PINNED is now set for IPv6 prefixes corresponding to the interface addresses

f5baf8bb12 Add modular fib lookup framework.
This change introduces framework that allows to dynamically
 attach or detach longest prefix match (lpm) lookup algorithms
 to speed up datapath route tables lookups.

Framework takes care of handling initial synchronisation,
 route subscription, nhop/nhop groups reference and indexing,
 dataplane attachments and fib instance algorithm setup/teardown.
Framework features automatic algorithm selection, allowing for
 picking the best matching algorithm on-the-fly based on the
 amount of routes in the routing table.

Currently framework code is guarded under FIB_ALGO config option.
An idea is to enable it by default in the next couple of weeks.

The following algorithms are provided by default:
IPv4:
* bsearch4 (lockless binary search in a special IP array), tailored for
  small-fib (<16 routes)
* radix4_lockless (lockless immutable radix, re-created on every rtable change),
  tailored for small-fib (<1000 routes)
* radix4 (base system radix backend)
* dpdk_lpm4 (DPDK DIR24-8-based lookups), lockless datastrucure, optimized
  for large-fib (D27412)
IPv6:
* radix6_lockless (lockless immutable radix, re-created on every rtable change),
  tailed for small-fib (<1000 routes)
* radix6 (base system radix backend)
* dpdk_lpm6 (DPDK DIR24-8-based lookups), lockless datastrucure, optimized
  for large-fib (D27412)

Performance changes:
Micro benchmarks (I7-7660U, single-core lookups, 2048k dst, code in D27604):
IPv4:
8 routes:
  radix4: ~20mpps
  radix4_lockless: ~24.8mpps
  bsearch4: ~69mpps
  dpdk_lpm4: ~67 mpps
700k routes:
  radix4_lockless: 3.3mpps
  dpdk_lpm4: 46mpps

IPv6:
8 routes:
  radix6_lockless: ~20mpps
  dpdk_lpm6: ~70mpps
100k routes:
  radix6_lockless: 13.9mpps
  dpdk_lpm6: 57mpps

Forwarding benchmarks:
+ 10-15% IPv4 forwarding performance (small-fib, bsearch4)
+ 25% IPv4 forwarding performance (full-view, dpdk_lpm4)
+ 20% IPv6 forwarding performance (full-view, dpdk_lpm6)

Control:
Framwork adds the following runtime sysctls:

List algos
* net.route.algo.inet.algo_list: bsearch4, radix4_lockless, radix4
* net.route.algo.inet6.algo_list: radix6_lockless, radix6, dpdk_lpm6
Debug level (7=LOG_DEBUG, per-route)
net.route.algo.debug_level: 5
Algo selection (currently only for fib 0):
net.route.algo.inet.algo: bsearch4
net.route.algo.inet6.algo: radix6_lockless

Support for manually changing algos in non-default fib will be added
soon. Some sysctl names will be changed in the near future.

fedeb08b6a Introduce scalable route multipath.
This change is based on the nexthop objects landed in D24232.

The change introduces the concept of nexthop groups.
Each group contains the collection of nexthops with their
 relative weights and a dataplane-optimized structure to enable
 efficient nexthop selection.

Simular to the nexthops, nexthop groups are immutable. Dataplane part
 gets compiled during group creation and is basically an array of
 nexthop pointers, compiled w.r.t their weights.

With this change, `rt_nhop` field of `struct rtentry` contains either
 nexthop or nexthop group. They are distinguished by the presense of
 NHF_MULTIPATH flag.
All dataplane lookup functions returns pointer to the nexthop object,
leaving nexhop groups details inside routing subsystem.

User-visible changes:

The change is intended to be backward-compatible: all non-mpath operations
 should work as before with ROUTE_MPATH and net.route.multipath=1.

All routes now comes with weight, default weight is 1, maximum is 2^24-1.

Current maximum multipath group width is statically set to 64.
 This will become sysctl-tunable in the followup changes.

Using functionality:
* Recompile kernel with ROUTE_MPATH
* set net.route.multipath to 1

route add -6 2001:db8::/32 2001:db8::2 -weight 10
route add -6 2001:db8::/32 2001:db8::3 -weight 20

netstat -6On

Internet6:
GrpIdx  NhIdx     Weight   Slots                                 Gateway     Netif  Refcnt

* Land outbound hashing for locally-originated routes ( D26523 ).
* Fix net/bird multipath (net/frr seems to work fine)
* Add ROUTE_MPATH to GENERIC
* Set net.route.multipath=1 by default

7c89a3b63f Move fib_rte_to_nh_flags() from net/route_var.h to net/route/nhop_ctl.c.
No functional changes.
Initially this function was created to perform runtime flag conversions
 for the previous incarnation of fib lookup functions. As these functions
 got deprecated, move the function to the file with the only remaining
 caller. Lastly, rename it to convert_rt_to_nh_flags() to follow the
 naming notation.

a624ca3dff Move net/route/shared.h definitions to net/route/route_var.h.
No functional changes.

net/route/shared.h was created in the inital phases of nexthop conversion.
It was intended to serve the same purpose as route_var.h - share definitions
 of functions and structures between the routing subsystem components. At
 that time route_var.h was included by many files external to the routing
 subsystem, which largerly defeats its purpose.

As currently this is not the case anymore and amount of route_var.h includes
 is roughly the same as shared.h, retire the latter in favour of the former.

b122304f6a Further split nhop creation and rtable operations.
As nexthops are immutable, some operations such as route attribute changes
 require nexthop fetching, forking, modification and route switching.
These operations are not atomic, so they may need to be retried multiple
 times in presence of multiple speakers changing the same route.

This change introduces "synchronisation" primitive: route_update_conditional(),
 simplifying logic for route changes and upcoming multipath operations.

592d300e34 Remove RT_LOCK mutex from rte.
rtentry lock traditionally served 2 purposed: first was protecting refcounts,
 the second was assuring consistent field access/changes.
Since route nexthop introduction, the need for the former disappeared and
 the need for the latter reduced.
To be more precise, the following rte field are mutable:

rt_nhop (nexthop pointer, updated with RIB_WLOCK, passed in rib_cmd_info)
rte_flags (only RTF_HOST and RTF_UP, where RTF_UP gets changed at rte removal)
rt_weight (relative weight, updated with RIB_WLOCK, passed in rib_cmd_info)
rt_expire (time when rte deletion is scheduled, updated with RIB_WLOCK)
rt_chain (deletion chain pointer, updated with RIB_WLOCK)
All of them are updated under RIB_WLOCK, so the only remaining concern is the reading.

rt_nhop and rt_weight (addressed in this review) are read under rib lock and
 stored in the rib_cmd_info, so the caller has no problem with consitency.
rte_flags is currently read unlocked in rtsock reporting (however the scope
 is only RTF_UP flag, which is pretty static).
rt_expire is currently read unlocked in rtsock reporting.
rt_chain accesses are safe, as this is only used at route deletion.

rt_expire and rte_flags reads will be dealt in a separate reviews soon.
