Subject: [PATCH net-next 01/14] ipv6: export fib6_lookup for nft_fib_ipv6
Date: Wed, 4 Mar 2026 12:49:08 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260304114921.31042-2-fw@strlen.de> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260304114921.31042-1-fw@strlen.de>
Upcoming patch will call fib6_lookup from nft_fib_ipv6. The EXPORT_SYMBOL is
added twice because there are two implementations of the function, one
is a small stub for MULTIPLE_TABLES=n, only one is compiled into the
kernel depending on .config settings.
Alternative to EXPORT_SYMBOL is to use an indirect call via the
ipv6_stub->fib6_lookup() indirection, but thats more expensive than the
direct call.
Also, nft_fib_ipv6 cannot be builtin if ipv6 is a module.
