Enable users of ip to specify the times for rtt, rttvar and rto_min
in human-friendly terms a la "tc" while maintaining backwards
compatability with the previous "raw" mechanism. Builds upon
David Miller's uncommited patch to set rto_min.

Thanks, I'll put it in the 2.6.24 version of iproute2 (assuming dave
takes the rto_min patch).
If you're talking about the kernel side, Linus's tree already
has the per-route rto_min stuff.
I was testing the patch using a 2.6.23-rc5 kernel after I noticed from
reading the changelog that the rto_min change went in there. It would
be very nice if it were possible to be in the .23 version of iproute2,
but I can easily see where things might be a bit late for that.
Meanwhile I'll let the customer know that a way (short of writing their
own util I guess :) to set the rto_min will be in at least .24
thanks,
rick jones
