Netlink: Simplify handling of IPv6 ECMP routes
When IPv6 ECMP support first appeared in Linux kernel, it used different API than IPv4 ECMP. Individual next hops were updated and announced separately, instead of using RTA_MULTIPATH as in IPv4. This has several drawbacks and requires complex code to merge received notifications to one multipath route. When Linux came with IPv6 RTA_MULTIPATH support, the initial versions were somewhat buggy, so we kept using the old API for updates (splitting multipath routes to sequences of route updates), while accepting both old-style routes and RTA_MULTIPATH routes in scans / notifications. As IPv6 RTA_MULTIPATH support is here for a long time, this patch fully switches Netlink to the IPv6 RTA_MULTIPATH API and removes old complex code for handling individual next hop announces. The required Linux version is at least 4.11 for reliable operation. Thanks to Daniel Gröber for the original patch.

/*
|
||||
* Structure nl_parse_state keeps state of received route processing. Ideally,
|
||||
* we could just independently parse received Netlink messages and immediately
|
||||
* propagate received routes to the rest of BIRD, but older Linux kernel (before
|
||||
* version 4.11) represents and announces IPv6 ECMP routes not as one route with
|
||||
* multiple next hops (like RTA_MULTIPATH in IPv4 ECMP), but as a sequence of
|
||||
* routes with the same prefix. More recent kernels work as with IPv4.
|
||||
*
|
||||
* Therefore, BIRD keeps currently processed route in nl_parse_state structure
|
||||
* and postpones its propagation until we expect it to be final; i.e., when
|
||||
* non-matching route is received or when the scan ends. When another matching
|
||||
* route is received, it is merged with the already processed route to form an
|
||||
* ECMP route. Note that merging is done only for IPv6 (merge == 1), but the
|
||||
* postponing is done in both cases (for simplicity). All IPv4 routes or IPv6
|
||||
* routes with RTA_MULTIPATH set are just considered non-matching.
|
||||
*
|
||||
* This is ignored for asynchronous notifications (every notification is handled
|
||||
* as a separate route). It is not an issue for our routes, as we ignore such
|
||||
* notifications anyways. But importing alien IPv6 ECMP routes does not work
|
||||
* properly with older kernels.
|
||||
*
|
||||
* Whatever the kernel version is, IPv6 ECMP routes are sent as multiple routes
|
||||
* for the same prefix.
