And now I remember why I didn't go down that path earlier. Relayfs is one-way kernel->user and lacks the ability to send query commands from user space that we need. Either we would need to send commands up through a separate interface (even a syscall) or try and ensure that the exiting genetlink interface can scale better with message volume (including throttling). --Shailabh - 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
