Ido Schimmel 58acfd714e ipv6: Honor specified parameters in fibmatch lookup
Currently, parameters such as oif and source address are not taken into
account during fibmatch lookup. Example (IPv4 for reference) before
patch:

$ ip -4 route show
192.0.2.0/24 dev dummy0 proto kernel scope link src 192.0.2.1
198.51.100.0/24 dev dummy1 proto kernel scope link src 198.51.100.1

$ ip -6 route show
2001:db8:1::/64 dev dummy0 proto kernel metric 256 pref medium
2001:db8:2::/64 dev dummy1 proto kernel metric 256 pref medium
fe80::/64 dev dummy0 proto kernel metric 256 pref medium
fe80::/64 dev dummy1 proto kernel metric 256 pref medium

$ ip -4 route get fibmatch 192.0.2.2 oif dummy0
192.0.2.0/24 dev dummy0 proto kernel scope link src 192.0.2.1
$ ip -4 route get fibmatch 192.0.2.2 oif dummy1
RTNETLINK answers: No route to host

$ ip -6 route get fibmatch 2001:db8:1::2 oif dummy0
2001:db8:1::/64 dev dummy0 proto kernel metric 256 pref medium
$ ip -6 route get fibmatch 2001:db8:1::2 oif dummy1
2001:db8:1::/64 dev dummy0 proto kernel metric 256 pref medium

After:

$ ip -6 route get fibmatch 2001:db8:1::2 oif dummy0
2001:db8:1::/64 dev dummy0 proto kernel metric 256 pref medium
$ ip -6 route get fibmatch 2001:db8:1::2 oif dummy1
RTNETLINK answers: Network is unreachable

The problem stems from the fact that the necessary route lookup flags
are not set based on these parameters.

Instead of duplicating the same logic for fibmatch, we can simply
resolve the original route from its copy and dump it instead.

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

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.
