The seg6_validate_srh() function only allows SRHs whose active segment is the first segment of the path. However, an application may insert an SRH whose active segment is not the first one. Such an application might be for example an SR-aware Virtual Network Function. This patch enables to insert SRHs with an arbitrary active segment.

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.
