When a local tool like tracepath tries to send packets bigger than
the device mtu, we create a nh exeption and set the pmtu to device
mtu. The device mtu does not expire, so check if the device mtu is
smaller than the reported pmtu and don't crerate a nh exeption in
that case.

Some protocols, like IPsec still cache routes. So we need to invalidate
the old route on pmtu events to avoid the reuse of stale routes.
We also need to update the mtu and expire time of the route if we already
use a nh exception route, otherwise we ignore newly learned pmtu values
after the first expiration.
With this patch we always invalidate or update the route on pmtu events.

In ipv4_mtu there is some logic where we are testing for a non-zero value
and a timer expiration, then setting the value to zero, and then testing if
the value is zero we set it to a value based on the dst. Instead of
bothering with the extra steps it is easier to just cleanup the logic so
that we set it to the dst based value if it is zero or if the timer has
expired.

Sylvain Munault reported following info :
- TCP connection get "stuck" with data in send queue when doing
"large" transfers ( like typing 'ps ax' on a ssh connection )
- Only happens on path where the PMTU is lower than the MTU of
the interface
- Is not present right after boot, it only appears 10-20min after
boot or so. (and that's inside the _same_ TCP connection, it works
fine at first and then in the same ssh session, it'll get stuck)
- Definitely seems related to fragments somehow since I see a router
sending ICMP message saying fragmentation is needed.
- Exact same setup works fine with kernel 3.5.1
Problem happens when the 10 minutes (ip_rt_mtu_expires) expiration
period is over.
ip_rt_update_pmtu() calls dst_set_expires() to rearm a new expiration,
but dst_set_expires() does nothing because dst.expires is already set.
It seems we want to set the expires field to a new value, regardless
of prior one.

Commit caacf05e5a causes big drop of UDP loop back performance.
The cause of the regression is that we do not cache the local output
routes. Each time we send a datagram from unconnected UDP socket,
the kernel allocates a dst_entry and adds it to the rt_uncached_list.
It creates lock contention on the rt_uncached_lock.

But output path on forwarding or UDP workloads hits

increase at a small cost.

commit 404e0a8b6a (net: ipv4: fix RCU races on dst refcounts) tried
to solve a race but added a problem at device/fib dismantle time :
We really want to call dst_free() as soon as possible, even if sockets
still have dst in their cache.
dst_release() calls in free_fib_info_rcu() are not welcomed.
Root of the problem was that now we also cache output routes (in
nh_rth_output), we must use call_rcu() instead of call_rcu_bh() in
rt_free(), because output route lookups are done in process context.
Based on feedback and initial patch from David Miller (adding another
call_rcu_bh() call in fib, but it appears it was not the right fix)
I left the inet_sk_rx_dst_set() helper and added __rcu attributes
to nh_rth_output and nh_rth_input to better document what is going on in
this code.

commit c6cffba4ff (ipv4: Fix input route performance regression.)
added various fatal races with dst refcounts.
crashes happen on tcp workloads if routes are added/deleted at the same
time.
The dst_free() calls from free_fib_info_rcu() are clearly racy.
We need instead regular dst refcounting (dst_release()) and make
sure dst_release() is aware of RCU grace periods :
Add DST_RCU_FREE flag so that dst_release() respects an RCU grace period
before dst destruction for cached dst
Introduce a new inet_sk_rx_dst_set() helper, using atomic_inc_not_zero()
to make sure we dont increase a zero refcount (On a dst currently
waiting an rcu grace period before destruction)
rt_cache_route() must take a reference on the new cached route, and
release it if was not able to install it.

On input packet processing, rt->rt_iif will be zero if we should

Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
Use inet_iif() consistently, and for TCP record the input interface of
cached RX dst in inet sock.
rt->rt_iif is going to be encoded differently, so that we can
legitimately cache input routes in the FIB info more aggressively.
When the input interface is "use SKB device index" the rt->rt_iif will
be set to zero.
This forces us to move the TCP RX dst cache installation into the ipv4
specific code, and as well it should since doing the route caching for
ipv6 is pointless at the moment since it is not inspected in the ipv6
input paths yet.
Also, remove the unlikely on dst->obsolete, all ipv4 dsts have
obsolete set to a non-zero value to force invocation of the check
callback.

It's not really needed.
We only grabbed a reference to the fib_info for the sake of fib_info
local metrics.
However, fib_info objects are freed using RCU, as are therefore their
private metrics (if any).
We would have triggered a route cache flush if we eliminated a
reference to a fib_info object in the routing tables.
Therefore, any existing cached routes will first check and see that
they have been invalidated before an errant reference to these
metric values would occur.

Caching input routes is slightly simpler than output routes, since we
don't need to be concerned with nexthop exceptions. (locally
destined, and routed packets, never trigger PMTU events or redirects
that will be processed by us).
However, we have to elide caching for the DIRECTSRC and non-zero itag
cases.

If we have an output route that lacks nexthop exceptions, we can cache
it in the FIB info nexthop.
Such routes will have DST_HOST cleared because such routes refer to a
family of destinations, rather than just one.
The sequence of the handling of exceptions during route lookup is
adjusted to make the logic work properly.
Before we allocate the route, we lookup the exception.
Then we know if we will cache this route or not, and therefore whether
DST_HOST should be set on the allocated route.
Then we use DST_HOST to key off whether we should store the resulting
route, during rt_set_nexthop(), in the FIB nexthop cache.

The ipv4 routing cache is non-deterministic, performance wise, and is
subject to reasonably easy to launch denial of service attacks.
The routing cache works great for well behaved traffic, and the world
was a much friendlier place when the tradeoffs that led to the routing
cache's design were considered.
What it boils down to is that the performance of the routing cache is
a product of the traffic patterns seen by a system rather than being a
product of the contents of the routing tables. The former of which is
controllable by external entitites.
Even for "well behaved" legitimate traffic, high volume sites can see
hit rates in the routing cache of only ~%10.
