From 1708ebc9636a249e104b83c6d105f15244825281 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Nikolay Aleksandrov Date: Tue, 3 Jan 2017 12:13:39 +0100 Subject: ipmr, ip6mr: add RTNH_F_UNRESOLVED flag to unresolved cache entries While working with ipmr, we noticed that it is impossible to determine if an entry is actually unresolved or its IIF interface has disappeared (e.g. virtual interface got deleted). These entries look almost identical to user-space when dumping or receiving notifications. So in order to recognize them add a new RTNH_F_UNRESOLVED flag which is set when sending an unresolved cache entry to user-space.
