Subject: [PATCH 0/8] More genericization of struct rtable
Date: Wed, 04 May 2011 10:14:38 -0700 (PDT)	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20110504.101438.193716658.davem@davemloft.net> (raw)


This patch set does more work to minimize or completely eliminate
various fields of struct rtable, with the goal of making the
structure as generic and non-specific as possible.

First we reduce rt->rt_tos such that it is only used as a key
for routing cache lookups, and rename it rt->rt_key_tos to
reflect this fact.

Next some output route lookup interface tweaks leading to the
removal of several rt->rt_{dst,src} accesses, replacing those
with flowi4->{daddr,saddr}

More to come.
