I have a patch for those here that I want to test. The inititial timer code was incomplete and IMO too complicated for what it did. AFAIRK at the time I started hacking on that there wasn't even a single user of that API. This patch turns the timers into simple and more importantly working timers which with 1-sec resolution. They might easily be adjusted or improved later on. /holger - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe netfilter-devel" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
