Thx. Btw. for next week, we'll ... 1. ... wait for Jamals feedback about skb->iif usage 2. ... move the vcan driver for the new netlink API So that we can finally go for net-2.6.23 at the end of next week, if there are no new issues from other reviewers until then. @Patrick: The changes in dummy.c and ifb.c for the netlink support do not look very complicated (not even for me ;-)) When these changes are implemented, how do i create/remove my interfaces? Is there any userspace tool like 'tc' for that? Thx & regards, Oliver
