Hi Ron, I’m glad we read that the same. As usual for SRv6, the SR source needs to decide how to build the IPv6 extension header chain. With current text, when extension headers are required to be processed at the ultimate segment, the SR source would need to add an SRH.
Would you agree? The pseudocode could be modified such that the SR source adds an SRH only when it wants a dest-opt header to be processed at each segment endpoint. Section 4.1.1 would state the pseudocode is invoked when processing any header type other than HBH or dest-opt (vs just upper layer header).

But this leads us to additional questions: - How do we encode destination options that need to be processed at the SR Path egress node only? - How do we encode the Fragment Option? - How do we encode the ESP option? In these cases, do we need an SRH to indicate that the extension headers that follow it are to be processed by the SR path egress node only? Would that SRH carry any routing information at all?
