Handling device routes in BIRD is a bit tricky - there are two sides
of the problem - import to the BIRD table and export to the kernel table.
(so first is to see the routes in 'show route').
So i understand it correctly that you want to import the routes from
one kernel table and export them to another? (as i see that they already
are in 'ip route ls t 254').

Direct would not generate these routes, because they are not addresses assigned
to the iface (in output 'ip a l')

Kernel protocol with learn may generate these routes, but there is an
exception for device routes in sysdep/linux/netlink/netlink.c:848 :
/*
* In Linux IPv6, 'native' device routes have proto
* RTPROT_BOOT and not RTPROT_KERNEL (which they have in
* IPv4 and which is expected). We cannot distinguish
* 'native' and user defined device routes, so we ignore all
* such device routes and for consistency, we have the same
* behavior in IPv4. Anyway, users should use RTPROT_STATIC
* for their 'alien' routes.
*/
if (i->rtm_protocol == RTPROT_BOOT)
src = KRT_SRC_KERNEL;
If you remove these two lines and recompile BIRD, you could probably
be able to import device routes.

This should work (if they are uncommented).
Second thing is to export the routes to the kernel table.
If the routes are from something different than static,
you should use 'device routes' option of kernel protocol
to really allow export of device routes.
