He,

We have an open-source tool tablesnoop [0], which might be of interest for
fellow hackers. It can trace IPv4 and IPv6 routing table lookups in real-time on
Linux. Also, it can trace policy lookups (ip rule) too. The tool written in C
and it has a user and kernelspace part (eBPF C).

It would be great if it could trace other table lookups as well, e.g.:
lookups in the lwtunnel infrastructure (SRv6, MPLS, VXLAN), ARP table lookups,
bridge FDB lookups. There are also netfilter lookups, configured with nftables
(or legacy iptables). Currently, none of these are supported, but some of them
could be implemented with minimal effort.

I will be attending on the IETF 123 Hackathon Madrid and I plan to work on this
tool there, the main focus will be tracing SRv6 encaps and End behaviors. If
anyone is interested, I'm happy to show the tool and discuss about potential
extensions and hack together.

Best,
Ferenc Fejes
