Subject: gateway field missing in netlink message

Hi Dave/Steve

There is nothing to do with VPP code here.

There is a netlink related file librtnl/netns.c which calls function rtnl_parse_rtattr() which is not handling RTA_MULTIPATH. This function is called when netlink message is received from the kernel.

netns.c is netlink library file.

Any idea to look for the latest code in netns.c to handle RTA_MULTIPATH ?

I added code but I could see only one gateway RTA_GATEWAY inside RTA_MULTIPATH. 

Regards
