<title>ipv4: Drop suffix update from resize code</title>

It has been reported that update_suffix can be expensive when it is called
on a large node in which most of the suffix lengths are the same.  The time
required to add 200K entries had increased from around 3 seconds to almost
49 seconds.

In order to address this we need to move the code for updating the suffix
out of resize and instead just have it handled in the cases where we are
pushing a node that increases the suffix length, or will decrease the
suffix length.

<title>ipv4: Drop leaf from suffix pull/push functions</title>

It wasn't necessary to pass a leaf in when doing the suffix updates so just
drop it.  Instead just pass the suffix and work with that.

Since we dropped the leaf there is no need to include that in the name so
the names are updated to node_push_suffix and node_pull_suffix.

Finally I noticed that the logic for pulling the suffix length back
actually had some issues.  Specifically it would stop prematurely if there
was a longer suffix, but it was not as long as the original suffix.  I
updated the code to address that in node_pull_suffix.

<title>ipv4: fib: Replay events when registering FIB notifier</title>

Commit b90eb7549499 ("fib: introduce FIB notification infrastructure")
introduced a new notification chain to notify listeners (f.e., switchdev
drivers) about addition and deletion of routes.

However, upon registration to the chain the FIB tables can already be
populated, which means potential listeners will have an incomplete view
of the tables.

Solve that by dumping the FIB tables and replaying the events to the
passed notification block. The dump itself is done using RCU in order
not to starve consumers that need RTNL to make progress.

The integrity of the dump is ensured by reading the FIB change sequence
counter before and after the dump under RTNL. This allows us to avoid
the problematic situation in which the dumping process sends a ENTRY_ADD
notification following ENTRY_DEL generated by another process holding
RTNL.

Callers of the registration function may pass a callback that is
executed in case the dump was inconsistent with current FIB tables.

The number of retries until a consistent dump is achieved is set to a
fixed number to prevent callers from looping for long periods of time.
In case current limit proves to be problematic in the future, it can be
easily converted to be configurable using a sysctl.

The next patch will enable listeners of the FIB notification chain to
request a dump of the FIB tables. However, since RTNL isn't taken during
the dump, it's possible for the FIB tables to change mid-dump, which
will result in inconsistency between the listener's table and the
kernel's.

Allow listeners to know about changes that occurred mid-dump, by adding
a change sequence counter to each net namespace. The counter is
incremented just before a notification is sent in the FIB chain.

In order not to hold RTNL for long periods of time we're going to dump
the FIB tables using RCU.

Convert the FIB notification chain to be atomic, as we can't block in

The patch that removed the FIB offload infrastructure was a bit too
aggressive and also removed code needed to clean up us splitting the table
if additional rules were added.  Specifically the function
fib_trie_flush_external was called at the end of a new rule being added to
flush the foreign trie entries from the main trie.

I updated the code so that we only call fib_trie_flush_external on the main
table so that we flush the entries for local from main.  This way we don't
call it for every rule change which is what was happening previously.

The display of /proc/net/route has had a couple issues due to the fact that
when I originally rewrote most of fib_trie I made it so that the iterator
was tracking the next value to use instead of the current.

In addition it had an off by 1 error where I was tracking the first piece
of data as position 0, even though in reality that belonged to the
SEQ_START_TOKEN.

This patch updates the code so the iterator tracks the last reported
position and key instead of the next expected position and key.  In
addition it shifts things so that all of the leaves start at 1 instead of
trying to report leaves starting with offset 0 as being valid.  With these
two issues addressed this should resolve any off by one errors that were
present in the display of /proc/net/route.
