Linux kernel source tree
Sven-Haegar reported looping on fib dumps when 255.255.255.255 route has
been added to a table. The looping is caused by the key rolling over from
FFFFFFFF to 0. When dumping a specific table only, we need a means to detect
when the table dump is done. The key and count saved to cb args are both 0
only at the start of the table dump. If key is 0 and count > 0, then we are
in the rollover case. Detect and return to avoid looping.
This only affects dumps of a specific table; for dumps of all tables
(the case prior to the change in the Fixes tag) inet_dump_fib moved
the entry counter to the next table and reset the cb args used by
fib_table_dump and fn_trie_dump_leaf, so the rollover ffffffff back
to 0 did not cause looping with the dumps.

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.
