As part of its functionality, the nftables FIB expression module
performs a FIB lookup, but unlike other users of the FIB lookup API, it
does so without masking the upper DSCP bits. In particular, this differs
from the equivalent iptables match ("rpfilter") that does mask the upper
DSCP bits before the FIB lookup.
Align the module to other users of the FIB lookup API and mask the upper
DSCP bits using IPTOS_RT_MASK before the lookup.
No regressions in nft_fib.sh:
# ./nft_fib.sh
PASS: fib expression did not cause unwanted packet drops
PASS: fib expression did drop packets for 1.1.1.1
PASS: fib expression did drop packets for 1c3::c01d
PASS: fib expression forward check with policy based routing

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 reStructuredText 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.
