net: neigh: decrement the family specific qlen
Commit 0ff4eb3d5ebb ("neighbour: make proxy_queue.qlen limit per-device") introduced the length counter qlen in struct neigh_parms. There are separate neigh_parms instances for IPv4/ARP and IPv6/ND, and while the family specific qlen is incremented in pneigh_enqueue(), the mentioned commit decrements always the IPv4/ARP specific qlen, regardless of the currently processed family, in pneigh_queue_purge() and neigh_proxy_process(). As a result, with IPv6/ND, the family specific qlen is only incremented (and never decremented) until it exceeds PROXY_QLEN, and then, according to the check in pneigh_enqueue(), neighbor solicitations are not answered anymore. As an example, this is noted when using the subnet-router anycast address to access a Linux router. After a certain amount of time (in the observed case, qlen exceeded PROXY_QLEN after two days), the Linux router stops answering neighbor solicitations for its subnet-router anycast address and effectively becomes unreachable. Another result with IPv6/ND is that the IPv4/ARP specific qlen is decremented more often than incremented. This leads to negative qlen values, as a signed integer has been used for the length counter qlen, and potentially to an integer overflow. Fix this by introducing the helper function neigh_parms_qlen_dec(), which decrements the family specific qlen. Thereby, make use of the existing helper function neigh_get_dev_parms_rcu(), whose definition therefore needs to be placed earlier in neighbour.c. Take the family member from struct neigh_table to determine the currently processed family and appropriately call neigh_parms_qlen_dec() from pneigh_queue_purge() and neigh_proxy_process(). Additionally, use an unsigned integer for the length counter qlen.
