====================
Packets that exceed the egress MTU can not be forwarded in the fast path.
Add IPv4 and IPv6 MTU helpers that take a FIB lookup result (versus the
typical dst path) and add the calls to bpf_ipv{4,6}_fib_lookup.
v2
- add ip6_mtu_from_fib6 to ipv6_stub
- only call the new MTU helpers for fib lookups in XDP path; skb
path uses is_skb_forwardable to determine if the packet can be
sent via the egress device from the FIB lookup

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
