Don't worry :) Its actually action walking that is on my list.
What I have planed is roughly:
- clean up and move hashing functions to act_common.c
- put data needed for hashing (size, pointer to memory, ...) in
struct tc_act_common, which is referenced by struct tc_action_ops
- add callback based walking function so we don't need two of them
This should also get rid of all the large functions contained in
headerfiles.
Regards
Patrick
