Here's what I know: I was told by one of the kernel netfilter people that we might want to look at: http://www.conscoop.ottawa.on.ca/rgb/freeswan/ in the klips2 section. It seems that lots of people need/want blobs on skbs, much like we are about to add. It has been rejected many times by the main network guy, Alexey. But if enough people ask for it... :) Take a look at why he rejected it last time it was submitted: http://216.32.174.27/projects/netdev/mail/netdev/msg02454.html Also take a look at: http://lists.samba.org/pipermail/netfilter-devel/2001-May/001157.html down around 14:06. Gives specific examples of things we should probably do. greg k-h _______________________________________________ linux-security-module mailing list linux-security-moduleat_private http://mail.wirex.com/mailman/listinfo/linux-security-module
