Subject: [PATCH net-next 2/5] net: Extend struct flowi6 with multipath hash
Date: Mon, 24 Oct 2016 11:28:49 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1477301332-23954-3-git-send-email-jkbs@redhat.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1477301332-23954-1-git-send-email-jkbs@redhat.com>
Allow for functions that fill out the IPv6 flow info to also pass a hash
computed over the skb contents. The hash value will drive the multipath
routing decisions.
This is intended for special treatment of ICMPv6 errors, where we would
like to make a routing decision based on the flow identifying the
offending IPv6 datagram that triggered the error, rather than the flow
of the ICMP error itself.
