Great, I'm glad to hear you're planning on implementing this for more than just TCP. I understand your desire to have the basic idea accepted with only TCP implemented - and that is fine with me - but I would like to see support for all of the protocols merged at the same time. In other words, seeking the basic ACKs for TCP from the davem, et al is okay but I'd like to defer merging TCP support until you have everything implemented and ready to be merged. -- paul moore www.paul-moore.com -- This message was distributed to subscribers of the selinux mailing list.
