[PATCH] fib_trie: Add proc entry for next-hop exceptions

From: Chris Rorvick
Date: Wed Feb 25 2015 - 00:27:40 EST


Exceptions are added to the FIB in response to ICMP redirects and to
account for PMTU, but there is little visibility into what the current
exceptions are. Add a proc entry for listing the current next-hop
exceptions

I wrote this patch while looking into some issues on a network and found
it useful. It caused me to realize that I needed to fix the routing on
my home network as the MTU over my PPPoE DSL service was causing the
exception list to grow very large.

Is there another way of getting the list of next-hop exceptions? Or
even the current count? Or is something similar to this patch a useful
addition?

Regards,

Chris
