Add definition for egress router interface table. This table describes the final part in the routing pipeline. This table matches the egress interface index (rif index, which is set by the previous stages and determine the out port) and makes the decision of forwarding the packet towards the L2 logic or dropping it. The metadata header is added to represent this internal information. The rif index field is mapped logically to netdevice ifindex.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. 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.
