No, that wont work since #2 and #4 are basically the same TLV. [Recall that "T" is used to index an array]. Your other alternative is to have #4 perhaps called TASKSTATS_TGID_STATS and #2 TASKSTATS_PID_STATS although that would smell a little. Dont be afraid to do the nest, it will be a little painful initially but i am sure once you figure it out you will appreciate it. cheers, jamal - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe netdev" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
