I am not sure why this is needed. Are the loopback host routes
installed into all of the FIBs automatically when lo0 is initialized?
Even if it is required, get_fibmod() is not necessary. The following
should work:
# route add -inet 127.0.0.1/8 -iface lo0 -fib all
I agree that this one bothers me.
I think that you are making assumptions about what the user will want.
POLA in my experience is that an empty FIB starts out EMPTY,
unless you *specify* it should be initialized with all the interface
routes, in which case lo0
should be done as well.
