The multipath tests currently test both the L3 and L4 multipath hash policies for IPv6, but only the L4 policy for IPv4. The reason is mostly historic: When the initial multipath test was added (router_multipath.sh) the IPv6 L4 policy did not exist and was later added to the test. The other multipath tests copied this pattern although there is little value in testing both policies. Align the IPv4 and IPv6 tests and only test the L4 policy. On my system, this reduces the run time of router_multipath.sh by 89% because of the repeated ping6 invocations to randomize the flow label.

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.
