Add fib_info_notify_update to walk the fib and send RTM_NEWROUTE notifications with NLM_F_REPLACE set for entries linked to a fib_info that have nh_updated flag set. This helper will be used by the nexthop code to notify userspace of routes that are impacted when a nexthop config is updated via replace. The new function and its helper are similar to how fib_flush and fib_table_flush work for address delete and link down events. This notification is needed for legacy apps that do not understand the new nexthop object. Apps that are nexthop aware can use the RTA_NH_ID attribute in the route notification to just ignore it. In the future this should be wrapped in a sysctl to allow OS'es that are fully updated to avoid the notificaton storm. Signed-off-by: David Ahern <dsahern@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: David S.

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.
