Subject: [PATCH 1/4] net: add _skb_dst opaque field
Date: Tue, 02 Jun 2009 17:13:45 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <4A2541A9.1030109@gmail.com> (raw)
struct sk_buff uses one union to define dst and rtable fields.
We want to replace direct access to these pointers by accessors.
First patch adds a new "unsigned long _skb_dst;" opaque field
in this union.
