Subject: [IPV4]: Add 'rtable' field in struct sk_buff to alias 'dst' and avoid casts
X-Git-Tag: v2.6.26-rc1~1138^2~472
X-Git-Url: https://err.no/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=ee6b967301b4aa5d4a4b61e2f682f086266db9fb;p=linux-2.6

[IPV4]: Add 'rtable' field in struct sk_buff to alias 'dst' and avoid casts

(Anonymous) unions can help us to avoid ugly casts.

A common cast it the (struct rtable *)skb->dst one.

Defining an union like  :
union {
     struct dst_entry *dst;
     struct rtable *rtable;
};
permits to use skb->rtable in place.
