Commit 8c14586f ("net: ipv6: Use passed in table for nexthop lookups") introduced a regression: insertion of an IPv6 route in a table not containing the appropriate connected route for the gateway but which contained a non-connected route (like a default gateway) fails while it was previously working: $ ip link add eth0 type dummy $ ip link set up dev eth0 $ ip addr add 2001:db8::1/64 dev eth0 $ ip route add ::/0 via 2001:db8::5 dev eth0 table 20 $ ip route add 2001:db8:cafe::1/128 via 2001:db8::6 dev eth0 table 20 RTNETLINK answers: No route to host $ ip -6 route show table 20 default via 2001:db8::5 dev eth0 metric 1024 pref medium After this patch, we get: $ ip route add 2001:db8:cafe::1/128 via 2001:db8::6 dev eth0 table 20 $ ip -6 route show table 20 2001:db8:cafe::1 via 2001:db8::6 dev eth0 metric 1024 pref medium default via 2001:db8::5 dev eth0 metric 1024 pref medium Fixes: 8c14586f ("net: ipv6: Use passed in table for nexthop lookups") Signed-off-by: Vincent Bernat <vincent@bernat.im> Acked-by: David Ahern <dsa@cumulusnetworks.com> Tested-by: David Ahern <dsa@cumulusnetworks.com> Signed-off-by: David S.
