Use nettest --{client,server}-dontroute to test the kernel behaviour
with TCP sockets having the SO_DONTROUTE option. Sending packets to a
neighbour (on link) host, should work. When the host is behind a
router, sending should fail.
Client and server sockets are tested independently, so that we can
cover different TCP kernel paths.
SO_DONTROUTE also affects the syncookies path. So ipv4_tcp_dontroute()
is made to work with or without syncookies, to cover both paths.

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.
