Message-ID: <AANLkTin3o_83kz1OxsN1Pme=0wv0g1zJ2F+FQ+U--u5e@mail.gmail.com> Date: Wed, 6 Oct 2010 14:23:44 -0700 From: Chung-Yih Wang (王崇懿) <cywang@...gle.com> To: David Miller <davem@...emloft.net> Cc: herbert@...dor.hengli.com.au, timo.teras@....fi, netdev@...r.kernel.org Subject: Re: Regarding to your linux kernel CL Do you mean if we should move the genid/cookie logic into sk_dst_check and remove the dst->ops->check()? If so, I dont think it will be a good idea to remove 'dst->ops->check' since it is per dst entry's check not just for ipv4 entry. At least, the fact of obsolete=2 reveals that the entry is freed and is ready for being released. That will be weird if we still use the obsolete entry for routing the socket's traffic(for sure, that's why the packets of the socket goes nowhere but dropped).
