Commit 4fc427e05158 ("ipv6_route_seq_next should increase position index")
tried to fix the issue where seq_file pos is not increased
if a NULL element is returned with seq_ops->next(). See bug
  https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=206283
The commit effectively does:
  - increase pos for all seq_ops->start()
  - increase pos for all seq_ops->next()

For ipv6_route, increasing pos for all seq_ops->next() is correct.
But increasing pos for seq_ops->start() is not correct
since pos is used to determine how many items to skip during
seq_ops->start():
  iter->skip = *pos;
seq_ops->start() just fetches the *current* pos item.
The item can be skipped only after seq_ops->show() which essentially
is the beginning of seq_ops->next().

For example, I have 7 ipv6 route entries,
  root@arch-fb-vm1:~/net-next dd if=/proc/net/ipv6_route bs=4096

In the above, I specify buffer size 4096, so all records can be returned
to user space with a single trip to the kernel.

If I use buffer size 128, since each record size is 149, internally
kernel seq_read() will read 149 into its internal buffer and return the data
to user space in two read() syscalls. Then user read() syscall will trigger
next seq_ops->start(). Since the current implementation increased pos even
for seq_ops->start(), it will skip record #2, #4 and #6, assuming the first
record is #1.

To fix the problem, do not increase pos for seq_ops->start() and the
above `dd` command with `bs=128` will show correct result.

Dear Yonghong Song,
thank you for reporting the problem.
As far as I understand the problem here is that pos is incremented in .start function.

I do not,like an idea to avoid increment in ipv6_route_seq_next()
however ipv6_route_seq_start can provide fake argument instead. 

--- a/net/ipv6/ip6_fib.c
+++ b/net/ipv6/ip6_fib.c
@@ -2618,8 +2618,9 @@ static void *ipv6_route_seq_start(struct seq_file *seq, loff_t *pos)

                ipv6_route_seq_setup_walk(iter, net);

        } else {
                return NULL;
        }

In this case patch subject should be changed accordingly.

Thank you,

This should work too.

I am fine with the change. I will wait until tomorrow for
additional comments, if any, about this fake point approach vs.
my approach, before sending v2.
