From de68dca1816660b0d3ac89fa59ffb410007a143f Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Eric Dumazet Date: Sat, 26 Nov 2011 12:13:44 +0000 Subject: inet: add a redirect generation id in inetpeer MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit Now inetpeer is the place where we cache redirect information for ipv4 destinations, we must be able to invalidate informations when a route is added/removed on host. As inetpeer is not yet namespace aware, this patch adds a shared redirect_genid, and a per inetpeer redirect_genid. This might be changed later if inetpeer becomes ns aware. Cache information for one inerpeer is valid as long as its redirect_genid has the same value than global redirect_genid.
