Subject: Re: [v9 PATCH 2/3] NETFILTER module xt_hmark, new target for HASH

Let me trim off parts that have been already discussed.

I see, you're defaulting on the original header if you cannot get the
ICMP header (eg. fragment case).

So if you get an unsupportted ICMP message, you rely on the original
IP header.

I only suggested to change the return value, no need to modify the
function, I liked how it was.

I prefer this chunk.

It seems more readable to me.

I don't mind. It was just one suggestion.

Right.

It's fine.

I think you can do like in other parts of netfilter:

union hmark_ports _uports = { ... };
union hmark_ports *uports;

uports = skb_header_pointer(skb, nhoffs + poff, sizeof(_uports), &_uports);
if (uports == NULL)
        return XT_CONTINUE;

Then use uports->v32 in the rest of the code.

To add what I've already said, I think it's also good if we can avoid
