[patch net-next 1/2] mlxsw: spectrum_router: Trap packets hitting anycast routes

From: Jiri Pirko <jiri@resnulli.us>
Date: 2017-09-01 08:59:01

From: Ido Schimmel <redacted>

I relied on the fact that anycast routes use the loopback device as
their nexthop device to trap packets hitting them to the CPU.

After commit 4832c30d5458 ("net: ipv6: put host and anycast routes on
device with address") this is no longer the case and such routes are
programmed with a forward action (note the 'offload' flag):

anycast cafe:: dev enp3s0np7 proto kernel metric 0 offload pref medium

This will prevent the router from locally receiving packets destined to
the Subnet-Router anycast address.

Fix this by specifically programming anycast routes with action trap,
which results in the following output:

anycast cafe:: dev enp3s0np7 proto kernel metric 0 pref medium

[patch net-next 2/2] mlxsw: spectrum_router: Set abort trap in all virtual routers

From: Jiri Pirko <jiri@resnulli.us>
Date: 2017-09-01 08:59:02

From: Ido Schimmel <redacted>

When the abort mechanism is invoked a default route directing packets to
the CPU is programmed in all the virtual routers currently in use. This
can result in packet loss in case a new VRF is configured.

Upon abort, program the default route in all virtual routers, whether
they are in use or not.

The patch is directed at net-next since post-abort fixes aren't critical
and packet loss due to a missing default route will be insignificant
compared to packet loss caused by the CPU port policer.
