Hello:

This series was applied to netdev/net-next.git (refs/heads/master):

At this moment, there is only one type of next-hop group: an mpath group.
Mpath groups implement the hash-threshold algorithm, described in RFC
2992[1].

To select a next hop, hash-threshold algorithm first assigns a range of
hashes to each next hop in the group, and then selects the next hop by
comparing the SKB hash with the individual ranges. When a next hop is
removed from the group, the ranges are recomputed, which leads to
reassignment of parts of hash space from one next hop to another. RFC 2992
illustrates it thus:
