Message-ID: <1423771650-870555-1-git-send-email-kafai@fb.com> Date: Thu, 12 Feb 2015 12:07:30 -0800 From: Martin KaFai Lau <kafai@...com> To: <netdev@...r.kernel.org> CC: Hannes Frederic Sowa <hannes@...essinduktion.org>, <davem@...emloft.net>, Kernel Team <kernel-team@...com> Subject: [RFC PATCH net-next] ipv6: fix ipv6_cow_metrics for non DST_HOST case ipv6_cow_metrics() currently assumes only DST_HOST routes require dynamic metrics allocation from inetpeer. The assumption breaks when ndisc discovered router with RTAX_MTU and RTAX_HOPLIMIT metric. Refer to ndisc_router_discovery() in ndisc.c and note that dst_metric_set() is called after the route is created. This patch creates the metrics array (by calling dst_cow_metrics_generic) in ipv6_cow_metrics(). Test: radvd.conf: interface qemubr0 { AdvLinkMTU 1300; AdvCurHopLimit 30; prefix fd00:face:face:face::/64 { AdvOnLink on; AdvAutonomous on; AdvRouterAddr off; }; }; Before: [root@...u1 ~]# ip -6 r show | egrep -v unreachable fd00:face:face:face::/64 dev eth0 proto kernel metric 256 expires 27sec fe80::/64 dev eth0 proto kernel metric 256 default via fe80::74df:d0ff:fe23:8ef2 dev eth0 proto ra metric 1024 expires 27sec After: [root@...u1 ~]# ip -6 r show | egrep -v unreachable fd00:face:face:face::/64 dev eth0 proto kernel metric 256 expires 27sec mtu 1300 fe80::/64 dev eth0 proto kernel metric 256 mtu 1300 default via fe80::74df:d0ff:fe23:8ef2 dev eth0 proto ra metric 1024 expires 27sec mtu 1300 hoplimit 30 Signed-off-by: Martin KaFai Lau <kafai@...com> --- net/ipv6/route.c | 2 +- 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+), 1 deletion(-) diff --git a/net/ipv6/route.c b/net/ipv6/route.c index 98565ce..4688bd4 100644 --- a/net/ipv6/route.c +++ b/net/ipv6/route.c @@ -141,7 +141,7 @@ static u32 *ipv6_cow_metrics(struct dst_entry *dst, unsigned long old) u32 *p = NULL; if (!(rt->dst.flags & DST_HOST)) - return NULL; + return dst_cow_metrics_generic(dst, old); peer = rt6_get_peer_create(rt); if (peer) { -- 1.8.1 -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe netdev" in the body of a message to majordomo@...r.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
