David S. Miller 47d0b2fe23 Merge branch 'disable-neigh-update-for-tunnels-during-pmtu-update'
Hangbin Liu says:

====================
disable neigh update for tunnels during pmtu update

When we setup a pair of gretap, ping each other and create neighbour cache.
Then delete and recreate one side. We will never be able to ping6 to the new
created gretap.

The reason is when we ping6 remote via gretap, we will call like

gre_tap_xmit()
 - ip_tunnel_xmit()
   - tnl_update_pmtu()
     - skb_dst_update_pmtu()
       - ip6_rt_update_pmtu()
         - __ip6_rt_update_pmtu()
           - dst_confirm_neigh()
             - ip6_confirm_neigh()
               - __ipv6_confirm_neigh()
                 - n->confirmed = now

As the confirmed time updated, in neigh_timer_handler() the check for
NUD_DELAY confirm time will pass and the neigh state will back to
NUD_REACHABLE. So the old/wrong mac address will be used again.

If we do not update the confirmed time, the neigh state will go to
neigh->nud_state = NUD_PROBE; then go to NUD_FAILED and re-create the
neigh later, which is what IPv4 does.

We couldn't remove the ip6_confirm_neigh() directly as we still need it
for TCP flows. To fix it, we have to pass a bool parameter to
dst_ops.update_pmtu() and only disable neighbor update for tunnels.

v5: No code change, upate some commits description
v4: No code change, upate some commits description
v3: Do not remove dst_confirm_neigh, but add a new bool parameter in
    dst_ops.update_pmtu to control whether we should do neighbor confirm.
    Also split the big patch to small ones for each area.
v2: Remove dst_confirm_neigh in __ip6_rt_update_pmtu.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
