ip rule cannot match based on the source IPv4 address

Hi guys,

I'm doing a "split routing table" on my router, and I'm importing routes
into specific kernel routing tables via bird.
So I'm doing some strange routing by using ip rule.

[root at archlinux ~]# ip -4 rule
0:      from all lookup local
32751:  from 134.195.121.118 lookup 101
32752:  from all iif Tanuki_IX lookup 147
32753:  from all iif ens19 lookup 147
32754:  from all iif cu_gre6 lookup 247
32755:  from all iif cu lookup 147
32756:  from all iif openvpn_stuix.5 lookup 247
32757:  from all iif openvpn_stuix lookup 147
32758:  from all iif openvpn_c1v lookup 147
32759:  from all iif openvpn_c1v.5 lookup 247
32760:  from all iif openvpn_Eric.5 lookup 247
32761:  from all iif openvpn_Eric lookup 147
32762:  from all iif ll-ix lookup 147
32763:  from all iif ll-ix_gre6 lookup 247
32764:  from all iif KSKB lookup 147
32765:  from all iif KSKB_gre6 lookup 247
32766:  from all lookup main
32767:  from all lookup default

As you could see, IPv4 from  134.195.121.118/32 will using table 101 which
only contain

[root at archlinux ~]# ip -4 route show table 101
default via 33.0.0.6 dev openvpn_Eric
[root at archlinux ~]#

When I am mtr to 8.8.8.8, it still uses the main route table NOT table 101
which does not follow the ip rule.

[root at archlinux ~]# mtr -a 134.195.121.118 8.8.8.8

[root at archlinux ~]# tcpdump -i any host 134.195.121.118

As you could see, the package still using the default route table not table
101.

This happens on Debian at the same time, and I think it's a problem about
Linux, not just ArchLinux. I also tested passing ip -6 rule add from some
ipv6 address table 101. It can work normally, that is to say, there is a
matching problem with ipv4 in ip rule, but this phenomenon does not exist
in ipv6.
