I agree that your patch works (since it does not use SG I/O :)) but I think it is more clear (and manageable) to have two separated routines for memory allocation. Moreover I think that this check has to be done in the control plane instead of the data plane, so I would like to spend some more time in order to see if it is possible to remove some checks in the hot-path Regards, Lorenzo > > Stanislaw
