obviously)

There is misalignment in the last field ("re-run with nh") and I think
it should be "1" in order to exercise this path with both legacy
nexthops and nexthop objects. See more below.

In addition, this test case is missing documentation at the beginning of
the file.

I also believe we have a problem with IPv6, but I will look into it when
I have time and add a test case.

Whether nexthop objects are supported or not is stored in "HAVE_NH" and
there is no need for this check here if you add setup_mp() like I
suggest below.

According to the documentation at the beginning of the file, the MTU
between B and R1 is 1400. See other test cases.

The test only uses ICMP, so hash policy can be L3 (0). Same for B.

It's a host, so no need to enable forwarding.

Can't you simply add the address on the loopback device instead of
creating a dummy netdev?

It would be good to test this with legacy nexthops as well. I'm not that
familiar with pmtu.sh, but I think you can add a "setup_mp" function and
invoke it via "setup namespaces routing mp [...]" at the beginning of
the function.

Internally, setup_mp() will consult "USE_NH" and invoke setup_mp_old()
or setup_mp_new() accordingly, like setup_routing() does.

'-c 1' should be enough

IIUC, previous command created an exception in both nexthops. The
following commands are needed so that a dst entry will be cached in both
exceptions and therefore be dumped below to user space. If so, please
adjust the comment to reflect that.
