Subject: [PATCH net-next v3 2/4] net: ipv6: Allow shorthand delete of all nexthops in multipath route
IPv4 allows multipath routes to be deleted using just the prefix and
length. For example:
$ ip ro ls vrf red
unreachable default metric 8192
1.1.1.0/24
nexthop via 10.100.1.254 dev eth1 weight 1
nexthop via 10.11.200.2 dev eth11.200 weight 1
10.11.200.0/24 dev eth11.200 proto kernel scope link src 10.11.200.3
10.100.1.0/24 dev eth1 proto kernel scope link src 10.100.1.3
$ ip ro del 1.1.1.0/24 vrf red
$ ip ro ls vrf red
unreachable default metric 8192
10.11.200.0/24 dev eth11.200 proto kernel scope link src 10.11.200.3
10.100.1.0/24 dev eth1 proto kernel scope link src 10.100.1.3
The same notation does not work with IPv6 because of how multipath routes
are implemented for IPv6. For IPv6 only the first nexthop of a multipath
route is deleted if the request contains only a prefix and length. This
leads to unnecessary complexity in userspace dealing with IPv6 multipath
routes.
This patch allows all nexthops to be deleted without specifying each one
in the delete request. Internally, this is done by walking the sibling
list of the route matching the specifications given (prefix, length,
metric, protocol, etc).
$ ip -6 ro ls vrf red
2001:db8::/120 via 2001:db8:1::62 dev eth1 metric 256 pref medium
2001:db8::/120 via 2001:db8:1::61 dev eth1 metric 256 pref medium
2001:db8::/120 via 2001:db8:1::60 dev eth1 metric 256 pref medium
2001:db8:1::/120 dev eth1 proto kernel metric 256 pref medium
...
$ ip -6 ro del vrf red 1111::1/120
$ ip -6 ro ls vrf red
2001:db8:1::/120 dev eth1 proto kernel metric 256 pref medium
...
Because IPv6 allows individual nexthops to be deleted without deleting
the entire route, the mutipath and non-multipath code paths have to be
discriminated so that all nexthops are only deleted for the latter case.
This is done by making the existing fc_type in fib6_config a u16 and then
adding a new u16 field with fc_delete_all_nh as the first bit.

v3
- removed need for RTM_F_ALL_NEXTHOPS user api
v2
- fixed locking deleting route and its siblings as noted by DaveM
v2' (patch originally submitted standalone)
- switched examples to rfc 3849 documentation address per request
- changed delete loop to explicitly look at siblings list for
first route matching specs given (metric, protocol, etc)
