The flag indicates to user space that the nexthop is not programmed to forward packets in hardware, but rather to trap them to the CPU. This is needed, for example, when the MAC of the nexthop neighbour is not resolved and packets should reach the CPU to trigger neighbour resolution. The flag will be used in subsequent patches by netdevsim to test nexthop objects programming to device drivers and in the future by mlxsw as well.

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.
