From cea45e208d700e9d633a636384a49f19cda979b7 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Andy Gospodarek Date: Thu, 13 Aug 2015 10:39:00 -0400 Subject: [PATCH] net: track link status of ipv6 nexthops Add support to track current link status of ipv6 nexthops to match recent changes that added support for ipv4 nexthops. This takes a simple approach to track linkdown status for next-hops and simply checks the dev for the dst entry and sets proper flags that to be used in the netlink message. v2: drop use of rt6i_nhflags since it is not needed right now Signed-off-by: Andy Gospodarek Signed-off-by: Dinesh Dutt Signed-off-by: David S.
