Therefore I'm reluctant to remove this for now. > ========== IP_NOSIOCRT ========== > net/ipv4/fib_frontend.c:#ifndef CONFIG_IP_NOSIOCRT Definitely bogus, deleted. > ========== IP_PIMSM ========== > net/ipv4/ipmr.c:#define CONFIG_IP_PIMSM 1 This one isn't bogus, it is a shorthand and is set when either CONFIG_IP_PIMSM_V1 or CONFIG_IP_PIMSM_V2 are set. > ========== IP_ROUTE_PERVASIVE ========== > net/ipv4/fib_semantics.c:#ifdef CONFIG_IP_ROUTE_PERVASIVE This seems to be for an intended feature to allow control of recursive gateway lookups, I'm not touching this one :-) - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
