isn't that a non-back-compatible kernel ABI change? It might
break pre-existing parsers?
Fib trie was always experimental and the output format was intended to
be tree like
but was broken. There are no known parsers of fib trie, and I think
Vyatta will probably
be the first distro to ship with it enabled.
aside: how lame are we to put pretty-printers in the kernel?
English-only ones, at that? Root cause: kernel developers still
don't have a sufficiently easy way of shipping userspace tools.
Agreed, the structure of the trie doesn't come out via netlink (only the
addresses).
