checking if a existing route is a route to an host or the default one

Hi all,

I'm currently working on a module for a dynamic routing algorithm
and I've got a problem.

I use ip_route_output_key (net/ipv4/route.c) in order to know if a
route for an host exists. If this route exists, i have to know if
this is a route of type host or of type net. My problem is that I didn't
find how to do this. ip_route_output_key returns a struct rt_key
and a struct rtable and I was unable to find how to make a difference
between host route (route add -host ...) and net route (route add -net
...)
with those 2 structs.

Do you know any way to do this ?

I try to directly access the fib table, but it seems that fib_lookup is
for internal
use only :(

Thanx
