We poll nexthops in HW and call for each active nexthop appropriate neighbour. Also we provide implicity neighbour resolving. For example, user have added nexthop route: # ip route add 5.5.5.5 via 1.1.1.2 But neighbour 1.1.1.2 doesn't exist. In this case we will try to call neigh_event_send, even if there is no traffic. This is useful, when you have add route, which will be used after some time but with a lot of traffic (burst). So, we has prepared, offloaded route in advance.

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. 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.
