The commit 2b760fcf ("ipv6: hook up exception table to store dst cache") partially reverted the commit 1e2ea8ad ("ipv6: set dst.obsolete when a cached route has expired"). As a result, RTF_CACHE dst referenced outside the fib tree will not be removed until the next sernum change; dst_check() does not fail on aged-out dst, and dst->__refcnt can't decrease: the aged out dst will stay valid for a potentially unlimited time after the timeout expiration. This change explicitly removes RTF_CACHE dst from the fib tree when aged out. The rt6_remove_exception() logic will then obsolete the dst and other entities will drop the related reference on next dst_check(). pMTU exceptions are not aged-out, and are removed from the exception table only when the - usually considerably longer - ip6_rt_mtu_expires timeout expires. v1 -> v2: - do not touch dst.obsolete in rt6_remove_exception(), not needed v2 -> v3: - take care of pMTU exceptions, too Fixes: 2b760fcf ("ipv6: hook up exception table to store dst cache") Signed-off-by:
