Emit a notification in the nexthop notification chain when a new nexthop is added (not replaced). The nexthop can either be a new group or a single nexthop. The notification is sent after the nexthop is inserted into the red-black tree, as listeners might need to callback into the nexthop code with the nexthop ID in order to mark the nexthop as offloaded. A 'REPLACE' notification is emitted instead of 'ADD' as the distinction between the two is not important for in-kernel listeners. In case the listener is not familiar with the encoded nexthop ID, it can simply treat it as a new one. This is also consistent with the route offload API.

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.
