Subject: ipv4: Allow administrative updates of inetpeer cache metrics
Hi:
Sorry, I totally forgot about this issue that we talked about
previously.
ipv4: Allow administrative updates of inetpeer cache metrics
As it stands we only ever copy the metrics from fib table once
for a given inetpeer cache entry. This means that if the fib
table is subsequently changed by the administrator then that
will never make it into the existing inetpeer cache entry.
This patch fixes this by recording the genid and checking it
every time we use the inetpeer entry.
I have no idea why we still have this code in IPv6 when we no
longer store metrics in the inetpeer cache. The changes to
IPv6 should result in exactly the same semantics as before.
