Error or not error, because it's hard to implement it in some way to make a correct handling without using a pointer of pointer. A pointer of pointer always means also a unnecessary dereferencing (netdev people doesn't like unnecessary dereferencing stuff, takes too much time).
That's why I vote also for option 2)... but we can also clarify this on the netdev mailinglist and ask other networking kernel hackers. - Alex ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Want excitement?
