Subject: TCP_IPV4_MATCH macro
Date: Tue, 28 Aug 2001 17:43:58 +0300	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <01082817435800.06072@aviv_linuxddd> (raw)


In tcp.h line 238 :

#define TCP_IPV4_MATCH(__sk, __cookie, __saddr, __daddr, __ports, __dif)\
	(((__sk)->daddr			== (__saddr))	&&		\
	 ((__sk)->rcv_saddr		== (__daddr))	&&		\
	 ((*((__u32 *)&((__sk)->dport)))== (__ports))   &&		\
	 (!((__sk)->bound_dev_if) || ((__sk)->bound_dev_if == (__dif))))

the ((*((__u32 *)&((__sk)->dport))) part is nasty because it assumes that the 
next field in the structure is 'num'. Why not use the TCP_COMBINED_PORTS
for that.? There are other such nasties in the macros there. 

An alternative would be a nice comment in the sock structure.

Alexey ? DaveM ? Someone ? :)
