>Description:
Hi guys,
I'm using the very undocumented command setfib to play with several routing tables for test purposes before production release.

This command has at least 2 problems :
The kernel I'm running have the followings running settings :
net.my_fibnum: 0
net.add_addr_allfibs: 0
net.fibs: 2

I'm currently testing very simple things :
I boot my machine, and I enter those commands :

#Configure interface em4
testQOS# ifconfig em4 10.10.10.0/24 up
#Delete automatically added route (btw is there any parameter to prevent this behavior?)
testQOS# route delete 10.10.10.0/24
delete net 10.10.10.0
#Populate FIB#1 context. We have net.add_addr_allfibs set to 0, so this is not done automatically
testQOS# setfib 1 route add 10.10.10.0/24 -interface em4
add net 10.10.10.0: gateway em4
#Try a ping to a host(it's alive) in FIB#1 context 
testQOS# setfib 1 ping 10.10.10.11
PING 10.10.10.11 (10.10.10.11): 56 data bytes
ping: sendto: Invalid argument

If I do the following : 
testQOS# ifconfig em4 10.10.10.0/24 up
testQOS# setfib 1 route add 10.10.10.0/24 -interface em4
testQOS# setfib 1 ping 10.10.10.11
PING 10.10.10.11 (10.10.10.11): 56 data bytes
64 bytes from 10.10.10.11: icmp_seq=0 ttl=64 time=1.561 ms

The only difference is that I'm not deleting the route from FIB#0 context.

Second problem :
#Configuring an interface from FIB#1 context then trying to ping 
testQOS# setfib 1 sh
# ifconfig em4 10.10.10.72/24 up
# ping 10.10.10.11
PING 10.10.10.11 (10.10.10.11): 56 data bytes
ping: sendto: Invalid argument

#Doing the same thing in FIB#0 context
testQOS# setfib 0 sh
# ifconfig em4 10.10.10.72/24 up
# ping 10.10.10.11
PING 10.10.10.11 (10.10.10.11): 56 data bytes
64 bytes from 10.10.10.11: icmp_seq=0 ttl=64 time=1.481 ms

So it seems FIB#1 context depends on FIB#0 context. Maybe I've missed something, but it seems to be a bug.

Thank you
>How-To-Repeat:
Install a FreeBSD 8.2 AMD64, compile kernel with options :
options IPFIREWALL
options IPFIREWALL_FORWARD
options IPFIREWALL_DEFAULT_TO_ACCEPT
options IPFIREWALL_VERBOSE
options IPFIREWALL_VERBOSE_LIMIT=250
options IPDIVERT
options DUMMYNET
options HZ=1000
options ROUTETABLES=2

Boot your machine
