[PATCH net-next v5 3/3] net: exthdrs: ioam6: send trace event

From: Justin Iurman
Date: Mon Feb 26 2024 - 08:14:55 EST


If we're processing an IOAM Pre-allocated Trace Option-Type (the only
one supported currently), then send the trace as an ioam6 event to the
netlink multicast group. This way, user space apps will be able to
collect IOAM data.
