v5.2: stuck ipv4 redirects

[Russell King - ARM Linux admin <linux@armlinux.org.uk>]

Hi,

I'm seeing a problem with ipv4 redirects seemingly not expiring.

I have:
- A VM running a 5.2 kernel, with IP address 192.168.0.251/23, default
  route 192.168.0.254.
- The main router at 192.168.0.254/23.
- A second router which was at 192.168.1.59/23, but which I moved to
  192.168.0.245/23.  Behind this is a subnet 192.168.253.252/30.

The VM at some point received a redirect from 192.168.0.254 for
192.168.253.254, telling it to redirect to 192.168.1.59.

Since the IP change of the second router, the VM has been unable to
contact 192.168.253.254, but can contact 192.168.253.253.  What I
see via tcpdump is:

11:34:48.549410 ARP, Request who-has 192.168.1.59 tell 192.168.0.251, length 28

I haven't found a way to view any information on the redirects that
the VM kernel has accepted.  The `ip' tool doesn't seem to have any
way to access that information (or I'm missing something.)

Any ideas what is going on, how to inspect the kernel's state from
userland wrt redirects, and how this can be solved without rebooting?

Thanks.
