Hello David.
I was able to solve it while troubleshooting some fragmentation issue.
The VTI interfaces had MTU of 1480 by default. I reduced to them to
the real PMTUD (1366) and now its all working just fine.
I am not sure how its related and why, but seems like it solved the issue.
P.S: while reading the relevant code in the kernel, i think i spotted
some mistake in net/ipv4/route.c, in function "update_or_create_fnhe".
It looks like it loops over all the exceptions for the nexthop entry,
but always overwriting the first (and only) entry, so effectively only
1 exception can exist per nexthop entry.
Line 678:
"if (fnhe) {"
Should probably be:
"if (fnhe && fnhe->fnhe_daddr == daddr) {"
Thank you for your efforts,
Kfir Itzhak
