Yea. Also: WRT a netlink message for REDIRECT events. After thinking more about this, it seems like users will already get notification of a REDIRECT in the form of 2 messages, a RTM_DELROUTE for the old route and a RTM_NEWROUTE message with the RTPROT_REDIRECT protocol type. I think this is perhaps sufficient for user mode notifications. What do you think? For the RDMA kernel subsystem, however, we still need a specific event. We need both the old and new dst_entry struct ptrs to figure out which active connections were using the old dst_entry and should be updated to use the new dst_entry.
