fib_nh_match does not match nexthops correctly. Example:

ip route add 172.16.10/24 nexthop via 192.168.122.12 dev eth0 \
                          nexthop via 192.168.122.13 dev eth0
ip route del 172.16.10/24 nexthop via 192.168.122.14 dev eth0 \
                          nexthop via 192.168.122.15 dev eth0

Del command is successful and route is removed. After this patch
applied, the route is correctly matched and result is:
RTNETLINK answers: No such process

Please consider this for stable trees as well.

<title>ipv4, fib: pass LOOPBACK_IFINDEX instead of 0 to flowi4_iif</title>

As suggested by Julian:

	Simply, flowi4_iif must not contain 0, it does not
	look logical to ignore all ip rules with specified iif.

because in fib_rule_match() we do:

        if (rule-&gt;iifindex &amp;&amp; (rule-&gt;iifindex != fl-&gt;flowi_iif))
                goto out;

flowi4_iif should be LOOPBACK_IFINDEX by default.

We need to move LOOPBACK_IFINDEX to include/net/flow.h:

1) It is mostly used by flowi_iif

2) Fix the following compile error if we use it in flow.h
by the patches latter:

In file included from include/linux/netfilter.h:277:0,
                 from include/net/netns/netfilter.h:5,
                 from include/net/net_namespace.h:21,

<title>ipv4: use next hop exceptions also for input routes</title>

Commit d2d68ba9 (ipv4: Cache input routes in fib_info nexthops)
assmued that "locally destined, and routed packets, never trigger
PMTU events or redirects that will be processed by us".

However, it seems that tunnel devices do trigger PMTU events in certain
cases. At least ip_gre, ip6_gre, sit, and ipip do use the inner flow's
skb_dst(skb)-&gt;ops-&gt;update_pmtu to propage mtu information from the
outer flows. These can cause the inner flow mtu to be decreased. If
next hop exceptions are not consulted for pmtu, IP fragmentation will
not be done properly for these routes.

It also seems that we really need to have the PMTU information always
for netfilter TCPMSS clamp-to-pmtu feature to work properly.

So for the time being, cache separate copies of input routes for
each next hop exception.

<title>hlist: drop the node parameter from iterators</title>

I'm not sure why, but the hlist for each entry iterators were conceived

        list_for_each_entry(pos, head, member)

The hlist ones were greedy and wanted an extra parameter:

        hlist_for_each_entry(tpos, pos, head, member)

Why did they need an extra pos parameter? I'm not quite sure. Not only
they don't really need it, it also prevents the iterator from looking
exactly like the list iterator, which is unfortunate.

Besides the semantic patch, there was some manual work required:

 - Fix up the actual hlist iterators in linux/list.h
 - Fix up the declaration of other iterators based on the hlist ones.
 - A very small amount of places were using the 'node' parameter, this
 was modified to use 'obj-&gt;member' instead.
 - Coccinelle didn't handle the hlist_for_each_entry_safe iterator
 properly, so those had to be fixed up manually.

The semantic patch which is mostly the work of Peter Senna Tschudin is here:

<title>ipv4: 16 slots in initial fib_info hash table</title>

<content type='text'>
A small host typically needs ~10 fib_info structures, so create initial
hash table with 16 slots instead of only one. This removes potential
false sharing and reallocs/rehashes (1-&gt;2-&gt;4-&gt;8-&gt;16)

Avoid checking nh_pcpu_rth_output in fast path,
abort fib_info creation on alloc_percpu failure.
