(Sorry for the delayed response here...)

I had tried a slightly different approach, but this one also seems
reasonable and possibly better -- especially if this can be made more
generic and shared between ipv4 and ipv6 despite their inherent
differences.

What I did differently was make a more ipv4-specific change to start
with that did this:

+#define RTNH_F_MODIFIED                (1 << 7)        /* used for
internal kernel tracking */
+
+#define RTNH_F_COMPARE_MASK    (RTNH_F_DEAD | \
+                                RTNH_F_LINKDOWN | \
+                                RTNH_F_MODIFIED) /* used as mask for
route comparisons */

Then in various cases where the route was modified (fib_sync_up, etc),
I added this:

+                                nexthop_nh->nh_flags |= RTNH_F_MODIFIED;

Checking for the modified flag was then done in fib_table_update().
This new function was a rewrite of fib_table_flush() and checks for
RTNH_F_MODIFIED were done there before calling switchdev infra and
then announce new routes if routes changed.

The main issue I see right now is that neither userspace nor switchdev
are notified when a route flag changes.  This needs to be resolved.

I think this RFC is along the proper path to provide notification, but
I'm not sure that notification will happen when flags change (most
notably the LNKDOWN flag) and there are some other corner cases that
could probably be covered as well.

I need to forward-port my patch from where it was to the latest
net-next and see if these cases I was concerned about were still an
issue.  I'm happy to do that and see if we can put this all together
to fix a few of the outstanding issues.
