Subject: [PATCH net-next v2] selftests: net: add ipv6 RA route to ECMP merge test
Date: Thu, 26 Feb 2026 13:02:37 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260226120237.5352-1-fmancera@suse.de> (raw)
As commit bbf4a17ad9ff ("ipv6: Fix ECMP sibling count mismatch when
clearing RTF_ADDRCONF") pointed out, RA routes are not elegible for ECMP
merging.
Add a test scenario mixing RA and static routes with gateway to check
that they are not getting merged.
Signed-off-by: Fernando Fernandez Mancera <fmancera@suse.de>

v2: added CONFIG_IPV6_ROUTE_INFO to the config
