Subject: Re: [PATCH iproute2] Revert "iproute: "list/flush/save default"
selected all of the routes"
Hello,
For example, it can be fixed in such way (patch is below):
- split handling of default and all/any
- set needed attributes in get_addr: PREFIXLEN_SPECIFIED flag for default
- and AF_UNSPEC for all/any
In this case "ip route show default" shows only default route and "ip
route show all" shows all routes. And both also work when family (-4 or
-6) is specified.
Serhey, does it goes in line with what you wanted to achieve? Because I
do not know - may be there are reasons why all/any should be provided
with specific family. If you think this solution is suitable, I'll do
some additional tests and package the patch in a proper way for this
mailing list.
And I'm unsure if check for AF_DECnet and AF_MPLS should be kept in both
branches. May be someone have some additional thoughts on that?

But as I unerstand for any case it was important to keep it with unspecified family for further filtering. As I do not know what is the global idea, I want to discuss it. Because there are options depending on how and where we want to handle those special names. Like keep unspecified family or change filtering logic.
