"ip route show" does not print correct value when larger rto_min is
set (e.g. 3sec).
This problem is because of overflow in print_route() and
the patch below is a workaround fix for that.
[root test]# ./iproute2.git.org/ip/ip route show dev eth1
192.168.140.0/24 proto kernel scope link src 192.168.140.130
169.254.0.0/16 scope link
[root test]# ./iproute2.git.org/ip/ip route change 192.168.140.0/24
dev eth1 rto_min 3s
[root test]# ./iproute2.git.org/ip/ip route show dev eth1
192.168.140.0/24 scope link rto_min lock 2ms <-- wrong
169.254.0.0/16 scope link
[root test]# ./iproute2.git/ip/ip route show dev eth1 # patched version
192.168.140.0/24 scope link rto_min lock 3000ms <-- correct
169.254.0.0/16 scope link
This is a simpler fix.

Enable users of ip to specify the times for rtt, rttvar and rto_min
in human-friendly terms a la "tc" while maintaining backwards
compatability with the previous "raw" mechanism. Builds upon
David Miller's uncommited patch to set rto_min.

This patch fixes a bug in the 'ip' command to display
IPv6 cloned routes.
ip -6 route ls cache
returns empty even when there are cloned routes because of
of a missing else in print_route() routine.

[IPROUTE]: Add support for larger number of routing tables
Support support for 2^32 routing tables by using the new RTA_TABLE
attribute for specifying tables > 255 and intepreting it if it is
sent by the kernel.
When tables > 255 are used on a kernel not supporting it an error will
occur because of the unknown netlink attribute.

[IPROUTE]: Preparation for 32 bit table IDs
The route table filter uses an integer for the table number and the value
-1 to represent cloned routes. For 32 bit table IDs it needs to become an
unsigned, so this won't work anymore. Introduce a new filter flag "cloned"
and use instead of filter.tb = -1.

table from the route type. This doesn't really work anymore now that IPv6
supports multiple tables. Add detection for IPv6 multiple table support
(relying on the fact that the first routes dumped belong to the local table
and have rtm_table == RT_TABLE_LOCAL with multiple tables) and handle it
like other protocols.

Stephen,
I apologize for the last patch I sent not applying cleanly to the latest
iproute2 sources. I realized that this might impede any
review/acceptance of the patch and created a separate patch against the
20060323 build of iproute2, which seems to be the latest (by looking at
the website).
The previous patch wouldn't apply cleanly due to the label of the
ssthresh argument being corrected from REALMS to NUMBER.
Please let us know if there is any other information or assistance we
can be with this patch submission.
Thanks
Vince
