A common theme in the output path is looking up a neigh entry for a
nexthop, either the gateway in an rtable or a fallback to the daddr
in the skb:
nexthop = (__force u32)rt_nexthop(rt, ip_hdr(skb)->daddr);
neigh = __ipv4_neigh_lookup_noref(dev, nexthop);
if (unlikely(!neigh))
neigh = __neigh_create(&arp_tbl, &nexthop, dev, false);
To allow the nexthop to be an IPv6 address we need to consider the
family of the nexthop and then call __ipv{4,6}_neigh_lookup_noref based
on it.
To make this simpler, add a ip_neigh_gw4 helper similar to ip_neigh_gw6
added in an earlier patch which handles:
neigh = __ipv4_neigh_lookup_noref(dev, nexthop);
if (unlikely(!neigh))
neigh = __neigh_create(&arp_tbl, &nexthop, dev, false);
And then add a second one, ip_neigh_for_gw, that calls either
ip_neigh_gw4 or ip_neigh_gw6 based on the address family of the gateway.
Update the output paths in the VRF driver and core v4 code to use
ip_neigh_for_gw simplifying the family based lookup and making both
ready for a v6 nexthop.
ipv4_neigh_lookup has a different need - the potential to resolve a
passed in address in addition to any gateway in the rtable or skb. Since
this is a one-off, add ip_neigh_gw4 and ip_neigh_gw6 diectly. The
difference between __neigh_create used by the helpers and neigh_create
called by ipv4_neigh_lookup is taking a refcount, so add rcu_read_lock_bh
and bump the refcnt on the neigh entry.

A later patch allows an IPv6 gateway with an IPv4 route. The neighbor
entry will exist in the v6 ndisc table and the cached header will contain
the ipv6 protocol which is wrong for an IPv4 packet. For an IPv4 packet to
use the v6 neighbor entry, neigh_output needs to skip the cached header
and just use the output callback for the neigh entry.
A future patchset can look at expanding the hh_cache to handle 2
protocols. For now, IPv6 gateways with an IPv4 route will take the
extra overhead of generating the header.

When the mtu of a vrf device is set to 0, it would cause ping
failed. So I think we should limit vrf mtu in a reasonable range
to solve this problem. I set dev->min_mtu to IPV6_MIN_MTU, so it
will works for both ipv4 and ipv6. And if dev->max_mtu still be 0
can be confusing, so I set dev->max_mtu to ETH_MAX_MTU.
Here is the reproduce step:
1.Config vrf interface and set mtu to 0:
3: enp4s0: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 qdisc fq_codel
master vrf1 state UP mode DEFAULT group default qlen 1000
link/ether 52:54:00:9e:dd:c1 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff
2.Ping peer:
3: enp4s0: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP,LOWER_UP> mtu 1500 qdisc fq_codel
master vrf1 state UP group default qlen 1000
link/ether 52:54:00:9e:dd:c1 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff
inet 10.0.0.1/16 scope global enp4s0
valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever
connect: Network is unreachable
3.Set mtu to default value, ping works:
PING 10.0.0.2 (10.0.0.2) 56(84) bytes of data.
64 bytes from 10.0.0.2: icmp_seq=1 ttl=64 time=1.88 ms

In order to pass extack together with NETDEV_PRE_UP notifications, it's

Network devices can allocate reasources and private memory using
netdev_ops->ndo_init(). However, the release of these resources
can occur in one of two different places.
Either netdev_ops->ndo_uninit() or netdev->destructor().
The decision of which operation frees the resources depends upon
whether it is necessary for all netdev refs to be released before it
is safe to perform the freeing.
netdev_ops->ndo_uninit() presumably can occur right after the
NETDEV_UNREGISTER notifier completes and the unicast and multicast
address lists are flushed.
netdev->destructor(), on the other hand, does not run until the
netdev references all go away.
Further complicating the situation is that netdev->destructor()
almost universally does also a free_netdev().
This creates a problem for the logic in register_netdevice().
Because all callers of register_netdevice() manage the freeing
of the netdev, and invoke free_netdev(dev) if register_netdevice()
fails.
If netdev_ops->ndo_init() succeeds, but something else fails inside
of register_netdevice(), it does call ndo_ops->ndo_uninit(). But
it is not able to invoke netdev->destructor().
This is because netdev->destructor() will do a free_netdev() and
then the caller of register_netdevice() will do the same.
However, this means that the resources that would normally be released
by netdev->destructor() will not be.
Over the years drivers have added local hacks to deal with this, by
invoking their destructor parts by hand when register_netdevice()
fails.
Many drivers do not try to deal with this, and instead we have leaks.
Let's close this hole by formalizing the distinction between what
private things need to be freed up by netdev->destructor() and whether
the driver needs unregister_netdevice() to perform the free_netdev().
netdev->priv_destructor() performs all actions to free up the private
resources that used to be freed by netdev->destructor(), except for
free_netdev().
netdev->needs_free_netdev is a boolean that indicates whether
free_netdev() should be done at the end of unregister_netdevice().
Now, register_netdevice() can sanely release all resources after
ndo_ops->ndo_init() succeeds, by invoking both ndo_ops->ndo_uninit()
and netdev->priv_destructor().
And at the end of unregister_netdevice(), we invoke
netdev->priv_destructor() and optionally call free_netdev().

The current codes only deal with the case that the skb is dropped, it
may meet one use-after-free issue when NF_HOOK returns 0 that means
the skb is stolen by one netfilter rule or hook.
When one netfilter rule or hook stoles the skb and return NF_STOLEN,
it means the skb is taken by the rule, and other modules should not
touch this skb ever. Maybe the skb is queued or freed directly by the
rule.
Now uses the nf_hook instead of NF_HOOK to get the result of netfilter,
and check the return value of nf_hook. Only when its value equals 1, it
means the skb could go ahead. Or reset the skb as NULL.
BTW, because vrf_rcv_finish is empty function, so needn't invoke it
even though nf_hook returns 1. But we need to modify vrf_rcv_finish
to deal with the NF_STOLEN case.
There are two cases when skb is stolen.
1. The skb is stolen and freed directly.
There is nothing we need to do, and vrf_rcv_finish isn't invoked.
2. The skb is queued and reinjected again.
The vrf_rcv_finish would be invoked as okfn, so need to free the
skb in it.

The VRF driver allows users to implement device based features for an
entire domain. For example, a qdisc or netfilter rules can be attached
to a VRF device or tcpdump can be used to view packets for all devices
in the L3 domain.
The device-based features come with a performance penalty, most
notably in the Tx path. The VRF driver uses the l3mdev_l3_out hook
to switch the dst on an skb to its private dst. This allows the skb
to traverse the xmit stack with the device set to the VRF device
which in turn enables the netfilter and qdisc features. The VRF
driver then performs the FIB lookup again and reinserts the packet.
This patch avoids the redirect for IPv6 packets if a qdisc has not
been attached to a VRF device which is the default config. In this
case the netfilter hooks and network taps are directly traversed in
the l3mdev_l3_out handler. If a qdisc is attached to a VRF device,
then the redirect using the vrf dst is done.
Additional overhead is removed by only checking packet taps if a
socket is open on the device (vrf_dev->ptype_all list is not empty).
Packet sockets bound to any device will still get a copy of the
packet via the real ingress or egress interface.
The end result of this change is a decrease in the overhead of VRF
for the default, baseline case (ie., no netfilter rules, no packet
sockets, no qdisc) from a +3% improvement for UDP which has a lookup
per packet (VRF being better than no l3mdev) to ~2% loss for TCP_CRR
which connects a socket for each request-response.

been attached to a VRF device which is the default config. In this
case the netfilter hooks and network taps are directly traversed in
the l3mdev_l3_out handler. If a qdisc is attached to a VRF device,
then the redirect using the vrf dst is done.
Additional overhead is removed by only checking packet taps if a
socket is open on the device (vrf_dev->ptype_all list is not empty).
Packet sockets bound to any device will still get a copy of the
packet via the real ingress or egress interface.
The end result of this change is a decrease in the overhead of VRF
for the default, baseline case (ie., no netfilter rules, no packet
sockets, no qdisc) to ~3% for UDP which has a lookup per packet and
< 1% overhead for connected sockets that leverage early demux and
avoid FIB lookups.

The VRF driver takes a reference to the inet6_dev on the VRF device for
its rt6_local dst when handling local traffic through the VRF device as
a loopback. When the device is deleted the driver does a put on the idev
but does not reset rt6i_idev in the rt6_info struct. When the dst is
destroyed, dst_destroy calls ip6_dst_destroy which does a second put for
what is essentially the same reference causing it to be prematurely freed.
Reset rt6i_idev after the put in the vrf driver.

Allow listeners of the subsequent CHANGEUPPER notification to retrieve
the VRF's table ID by calling l3mdev_fib_table() with the slave netdev.
Without this change, the netdev won't be considered an L3 slave and the
function would return 0.
This is consistent with other master device such as bridge and bond that
set the slave's private flag before linking. It also makes
do_vrf_{add,del}_slave() symmetric.
