Why not implement this this same for IPv4 and IPv6? It looks like it is only included if it is non-zer and not MAIN in the above case, and then below as long as a table ID is non-zero you are setting the value. Why not just include the value in all cases where it is defined just like for IPv6?
I like Thomas' suggestion to add an rtm_flag better. We only need to fix IPv4 which hardcodes the tableid. Adding a flag, e.g.,
+#define RTM_F_LOOKUP_TABLE 0x1000 /* set rtm_table to FIB lookup result */
signifies the caller wants the real table. When set rt_fill_info sets rtm_table to the actual table id. This allows updated tools to work properly for both ipv4 and ipv6 and without breaking existing userspace.
