The kernel resolves the nexthops for a given route using FIB_LOOKUP_IGNORE_LINKSTATE which means a notification can be sent for a route with one of its nexthops being LINKDOWN. In case IGNORE_ROUTES_WITH_LINKDOWN is set for the nexthop netdev, then we shouldn't reflect the nexthop to the device's table. Once the nexthop netdev's carrier goes up we'll be notified using NH_ADD and reflect it to the device.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
