      ====================
      remove dst garbage collector logic
      
      The current mechanism of dst release is a bit complicated. It is because
      the users of dst get divided into 2 situations:
        1. Most users take the reference count when using a dst and release the
           reference count when done.
        2. Exceptional users like IPv4/IPv6/decnet/xfrm routing code do not take
           reference count when referencing to a dst due to some histotic reasons.
      
      Due to those exceptional use cases in 2, reference count being 0 is not an
      adequate evidence to indicate that no user is using this dst. So users in 1
      can't free the dst simply based on reference count being 0 because users in
      2 might still hold reference to it.
      Instead, a dst garbage list is needed to hold the dst entries that already
      get removed by the users in 2 but are still held by users in 1. And a periodic
      garbage collector task is run to check all the dst entries in the list to see
      if the users in 1 have released the reference to those dst entries.
      If so, the dst is now ready to be freed.
      
      This logic introduces unnecessary complications in the dst code which makes it
      hard to understand and to debug.
      
      In order to get rid of the whole dst garbage collector (gc) and make the dst
      code more unified and simplified, we can make the users in 2 also take reference
      count on the dst and release it properly when done.
      This way, dst can be safely freed once the refcount drops to 0 and no gc
      thread is needed anymore.
      
      This patch series' target is to completely get rid of dst gc logic and free
      dst based on reference count only.
      Patch 1-3 are preparation patches to do some cleanup/improvement on the existing
      code to make later work easier.
      Patch 4-21 are real implementations.
      In these patches, a temporary flag DST_NOGC is used to help transition
      those exceptional users one by one. Once every component is transitioned,
      this temporary flag is removed.
      By the end of this patch series, all dst are refcounted when being used
      and released when done. And dst will be freed when its refcount drops to 0.
      No dst gc task is running anymore.
      
      Note: This patch series depends on the decnet fix that was sent right before:
            "decnet: always not take dst->__refcnt when inserting dst into hash table"
      
      v2:
        add curly braces in udp_v4/6_early_demux() in patch 02
        add EXPORT_SYMBOL() for dst_dev_put() in patch 05

      DST_NOCACHE flag check has been removed from dst_release() and

      decnet: take dst->__refcnt when struct dn_route is created · 560fd93b
      Wei Wang authored
      struct dn_route is inserted into dn_rt_hash_table but no dst->__refcnt
      is taken.
      This patch makes sure the dn_rt_hash_table's reference to the dst is ref
      counted.
      
      As the dst is always ref counted properly, we can safely mark
      DST_NOGC flag so dst_release() will release dst based on refcnt only.
      And dst gc is no longer needed and all dst_free() or its related
      function calls should be replaced with dst_release() or
      dst_release_immediate(). And dst_dev_put() is called when removing dst
      from the hash table to release the reference on dst->dev before we lose
      pointer to it.
      
      Also, correct the logic in dn_dst_check_expire() and dn_dst_gc() to
      check dst->__refcnt to be > 1 to indicate it is referenced by other
      users.

      xfrm: take refcnt of dst when creating struct xfrm_dst bundle · 52df157f
      Wei Wang authored
      During the creation of xfrm_dst bundle, always take ref count when
      allocating the dst. This way, xfrm_bundle_create() will form a linked
      list of dst with dst->child pointing to a ref counted dst child. And
      the returned dst pointer is also ref counted. This makes the link from
      the flow cache to this dst now ref counted properly.
      As the dst is always ref counted properly, we can safely mark
      DST_NOGC flag so dst_release() will release dst based on refcnt only.
      And dst gc is no longer needed and all dst_free() and its related
      function calls should be replaced with dst_release() or
      dst_release_immediate().
      
      The special handling logic for dst->child in dst_destroy() can be
      replaced with a simple dst_release_immediate() call on the child to
      release the whole list linked by dst->child pointer.
      Previously used DST_NOHASH flag is not needed anymore as well. The
      reason that DST_NOHASH is used in the existing code is mainly to prevent
      the dst inserted in the fib tree to be wrongly destroyed during the
      deletion of the xfrm_dst bundle. So in the existing code, DST_NOHASH
      flag is marked in all the dst children except the one which is in the
      fib tree.
      However, with this patch series to remove dst gc logic and release dst
      only based on ref count, it is safe to release all the children from a
      xfrm_dst bundle as long as the dst children are all ref counted
      properly which is already the case in the existing code.
      So, this patch removes the use of DST_NOHASH flag.

      With the previous preparation patches, we are ready to get rid of the
      dst gc operation in ipv6 code and release dst based on refcnt only.
      So this patch adds DST_NOGC flag for all IPv6 dst and remove the calls

      At this point, all dst created in ipv6 code do not use the dst gc

      Also, as icmp6 dst route is refcounted during creation and will be freed
      by user during its call of dst_release(), there is no need to add this
      dst to the icmp6 gc list as well.
      Instead, we need to add it into uncached list so that when a
      NETDEV_DOWN/NETDEV_UNREGISRER event comes, we can properly go through
      these icmp6 dst as well and release the net device properly.

      ipv6: take dst->__refcnt for insertion into fib6 tree · 1cfb71ee
      Wei Wang authored
      In IPv6 routing code, struct rt6_info is created for each static route
      and RTF_CACHE route and inserted into fib6 tree. In both cases, dst
      ref count is not taken.
      As explained in the previous patch, this leads to the need of the dst
      garbage collector.
      
      This patch holds ref count of dst before inserting the route into fib6
      tree and properly releases the dst when deleting it from the fib6 tree
      as a preparation in order to fully get rid of dst gc later.
      
      Also, correct fib6_age() logic to check dst->__refcnt to be 1 to indicate
      no user is referencing the dst.
      
      And remove dst_hold() in vrf_rt6_create() as ip6_dst_alloc() already puts
      dst->__refcnt to 1.

      ipv4: call dst_hold_safe() properly · 9df16efa
      Wei Wang authored
      This patch checks all the calls to
      dst_hold()/skb_dst_force()/dst_clone()/dst_use() to see if
      dst_hold_safe() is needed to avoid double free issue if dst
      gc is removed and dst_release() directly destroys dst when
      dst->__refcnt drops to 0.
      
      In tx path, TCP hold sk->sk_rx_dst ref count and also hold sock_lock().
      UDP and other similar protocols always hold refcount for
      skb->_skb_refdst. So both paths seem to be safe.
      
      In rx path, as it is lockless and skb_dst_set_noref() is likely to be
      used, dst_hold_safe() should always be used when trying to hold dst.
      
      In the routing code, if dst is held during an rcu protected session, it
      is necessary to call dst_hold_safe() as the current dst might be in its
      rcu grace period.

      ipv4: take dst->__refcnt when caching dst in fib · 0830106c
      Wei Wang authored
      In IPv4 routing code, fib_nh and fib_nh_exception can hold pointers
      to struct rtable but they never increment dst->__refcnt.
      This leads to the need of the dst garbage collector because when user
      is done with this dst and calls dst_release(), it can only decrement
      dst->__refcnt and can not free the dst even it sees dst->__refcnt
      drops from 1 to 0 (unless DST_NOCACHE flag is set) because the routing
      code might still hold reference to it.
      And when the routing code tries to delete a route, it has to put the
      dst to the gc_list if dst->__refcnt is not yet 0 and have a gc thread
      running periodically to check on dst->__refcnt and finally to free dst
      when refcnt becomes 0.
      
      This patch increments dst->__refcnt when
      fib_nh/fib_nh_exception holds reference to this dst and properly release
      the dst when fib_nh/fib_nh_exception has been updated with a new dst.
      
      This patch is a preparation in order to fully get rid of dst gc later.

      It does the following:

      net: introduce DST_NOGC in dst_release() to destroy dst based on refcnt · 5f56f409
      Wei Wang authored
      The current mechanism of freeing dst is a bit complicated. dst has its
      ref count and when user grabs the reference to the dst, the ref count is
      properly taken in most cases except in IPv4/IPv6/decnet/xfrm routing
      code due to some historic reasons.
      
      If the reference to dst is always taken properly, we should be able to
      simplify the logic in dst_release() to destroy dst when dst->__refcnt
      drops from 1 to 0. And this should be the only condition to determine
      if we can call dst_destroy().
      And as dst is always ref counted, there is no need for a dst garbage
      list to hold the dst entries that already get removed by the routing
      code but are still held by other users. And the task to periodically
      check the list to free dst if ref count become 0 is also not needed
      anymore.
      
      This patch introduces a temporary flag DST_NOGC(no garbage collector).
      If it is set in the dst, dst_release() will call dst_destroy() when
      dst->__refcnt drops to 0. dst_hold_safe() will also check for this flag
      and do atomic_inc_not_zero() similar as DST_NOCACHE to avoid double free
      issue.
      This temporary flag is mainly used so that we can make the transition
      component by component without breaking other parts.
      This flag will be removed after all components are properly transitioned.
      
      This patch also introduces a new function dst_release_immediate() which
      destroys dst without waiting on the rcu when refcnt drops to 0. It will
      be used in later patches.
      
      Follow-up patches will correct all the places to properly take ref count
      on dst and mark DST_NOGC. dst_release() or dst_release_immediate() will
      be used to release the dst instead of dst_free() and its related
      functions.
      And final clean-up patch will remove the DST_NOGC flag.

      net: use loopback dev when generating blackhole route · 1dbe3252
      Wei Wang authored
      Existing ipv4/6_blackhole_route() code generates a blackhole route
      with dst->dev pointing to the passed in dst->dev.
      It is not necessary to hold reference to the passed in dst->dev
      because the packets going through this route are dropped anyway.
      A loopback interface is good enough so that we don't need to worry about
      releasing this dst->dev when this dev is going down.

      udp: call dst_hold_safe() in udp_sk_rx_set_dst() · d24406c8
      Wei Wang authored
      In udp_v4/6_early_demux() code, we try to hold dst->__refcnt for
      dst with DST_NOCACHE flag. This is because later in udp_sk_rx_dst_set()
      function, we will try to cache this dst in sk for connected case.
      However, a better way to achieve this is to not try to hold dst in
      early_demux(), but in udp_sk_rx_dst_set(), call dst_hold_safe(). This
      approach is also more consistant with how tcp is handling it. And it
      will make later changes simpler.

      ipv6: remove unnecessary dst_hold() in ip6_fragment() · 1758fd46
      Wei Wang authored
      In ipv6 tx path, rcu_read_lock() is taken so that dst won't get freed
      during the execution of ip6_fragment(). Hence, no need to hold dst in
      it.
