Benjamin Poirier says: ==================== nexthop: Refactor and fix nexthop selection for multipath routes In order to select a nexthop for multipath routes, fib_select_multipath() is used with legacy nexthops and nexthop_select_path_hthr() is used with nexthop objects. Those two functions perform a validity test on the neighbor related to each nexthop but their logic is structured differently. This causes a divergence in behavior and nexthop_select_path_hthr() may return a nexthop that failed the neighbor validity test even if there was one that passed. Refactor nexthop_select_path_hthr() to make it more similar to fib_select_multipath() and fix the problem mentioned above. v1: https://lore.kernel.org/netdev/20230529201914.69828-1-bpoirier@nvidia.com/ ==================== Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20230719-nh_select-v2-0-04383e89f868@nvidia.com Signed-off-by: Jakub Kicinski <kuba@kernel.org>
