Yeah, also 2.0.38 had this capability, but you could access routing
table entry based on the daddr (destination address).
Daddr was used to build tha ip_rt_hash_table hash key.
There were no simple way to get all the list of the routing entries
w/o reading from /proc imho.
What I said just looking (ok too fast ;)) at the new stuff (2.2.X)
is that you can access and get info about the route entries, but
one at a time. Again there's no simple (like a single msg/ioctl) to
get all the list.
However for this part (2.2.X stuff) I could be really wrong, so
forgive me :)
However thx a lot for pointing me to this new stuff :)
