Ido Schimmel 511e8db540 selftests: forwarding: Add test for custom multipath hash
Test that when the hash policy is set to custom, traffic is distributed
only according to the outer fields set in the fib_multipath_hash_fields
sysctl.

Each time set a different field and make sure traffic is only
distributed when the field is changed in the packet stream.

The test only verifies the behavior with non-encapsulated IPv4 and IPv6
packets. Subsequent patches will add tests for IPv4/IPv6 overlays on top
of IPv4/IPv6 underlay networks.

Example output:

 # ./custom_multipath_hash.sh

README

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.
