| Since this is an arbitrary lenght up to 253, it could as well be 253,
| no? Or is there any other limit that I'm forgetting? :-) It may well be
| that case, would have to read the RFC about how the encoding is done for
| feat len, which I did some weeks ago, but...
|   
The worst-case consideration is the Confirm option:
max value =  255
          - 2 bytes for type/length
          - 1 byte for feature number 
          - 1 byte for confirmed value (6.2)
	  = max 251 distinct values.

So make it 251 instead?	- we will need some new RFCs :)

| This _really_ is confusing! Why not:
| 
| 	rc = -EFAULT;
| 	if (copy_from_user(val, optval, optlen))
| 		goto out;
| 
| 	lock_sock(sk);
| 	rc = 0;
| 	if (type == DCCP_SOCKOPT_TX_CCID || type == DCCP_SOCKOPT_CCID)
| 		rc = dccp_feat_register_sp(sk, DCCPF_CCID, 1, val, optlen);
| 
| 	if (!rc && (type == DCCP_SOCKOPT_RX_CCID || type == DCCP_SOCKOPT_CCID))
| 		rc = dccp_feat_register_sp(sk, DCCPF_CCID, 0, val, optlen);
| 	release_sock(sk);
| out:
| > +	kfree(val);
| > +	return rc;
| > +}
| 
| :-)
| 
| And even then that '0' or '1' requires one to look at what this binary
| number means, we could have something like
| dccp_feat_register_sp_{local,remote} perhaps, IIRC that is the is_local
| parameter, no?
| 
Thanks, I will be revising this with regard to the above. 

If you want, we could consider dropping the DCCP_SOCKOPT_{RX,TX}_CCID 
since mixed-mode is at the moment not well understood and will lead
to bad performance (e.g. CCID-3 on the forward path and CCID-2 on the
reverse path). 

That would make both the above statements and the socket API much
simpler. Would that be ok?

With regard to the dccp_feat_register_sp_local() function, the price to
pay is that either lines will be longer than 80 characters or that we
will end up with more multi-line statements, which does IMO not help
readability.
