Improve debuggability with tools like traceroute and make PMTUD work in setups that make use of ECMP routing by sending ICMP errors down the same path as the offending packet would travel, if it was going in the opposite direction. There is a caveat, flows in both directions need use the same label. Otherwise packets from flow in the opposite direction and ICMP errors will not be routed over the same ECMP link. Export the function for calculating the multipath hash so that we can use it also on receive side, when forwarding ICMP errors. v1 -> v2: - don't use "extern" in external function declaration in header file, pointed out by David Miller Signed-off-by: Jakub Sitnicki <redacted> Acked-by: Hannes Frederic Sowa <redacted> --- include/linux/icmpv6.h | 2 ++ net/ipv6/icmp.c | 21 +++++++++++++++++++++ 2 files changed, 23 insertions(+)
