As I had mentioned in another thread, I am keen to factor out the
common code between ping and ping6. This is necessary partly to
fix some bugs in ping6, but would be most helpful while
implementing new features and fixing bugs. Now I find that we have
libicmp/ and a bunch of ping_*.[ch] files in ping/. Since libping
is built as a static library, I was wondering whether we should
shift all the common portions into libicmp and keep only the
ping/ping6 specific code in the ping directory. Or should it be
something else?
libicmp should contain ICMP specific cruft. What is the problem of
using say ping_common.[ch] and share that between ping{6,} for ping
specific code?
