(also involves sctp) X-BeenThere: freebsd-arch@freebsd.org X-Mailman-Version: 2.1.5 Precedence: list List-Id: Discussion related to FreeBSD architecture List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , X-List-Received-Date: Sun, 01 Mar 2009 15:25:14 -0000 Hi, I am planning to split netinet/ip_fw2.c in a number of smaller files to make it more manageable, and while i do this I would also like to move the files related to ipfw2 (namely ip_fw*c) to a better place. Any objection to moving them to sys/netinet/ipfw2 ? Also, I can't help noticing that sys/netinet/ contains 36 files related to sctp -- wouldn't it be the case to move them (perhaps with the exception of the userland headers) to a separate subdirectory ? (I know the same reasoning would apply to tcp, which has 23 files, but the issue here is that there is 25 years of userland code expecting the tcp headers in netinet/ and moving them would be a nightmare for ports...) cheers luigi
