Subject: [PATCH 0/2] Fix nh_saddr caching.
Date: Thu, 24 Mar 2011 18:14:13 -0700 (PDT)	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20110324.181413.173844730.davem@davemloft.net> (raw)


Julian, the following two patches should take all of the
issues we discovered the other week wrt. nh_saddr caching.

First, we use a generation ID to invalidate cache nh_saddr
settings any time a device goes up or an IP address is
added/removed.

Second, we move fa_scope up to fib_info->fib_scope, so that
we always use the correct scope when computing the cached
nh_saddr.

Please review this carefully as this is delicate code.

Thanks!
