This only applies to the first level of rtnetlink attributes, when using rtattr_parse() unknown attributes are ignored. Once this ugly rta_buf has disappeared it will become more consistent. Patches look good to me except that new iproute binaries won't work with older kernels anymore? - 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
