What is the goal of the XRESOLVE mechanism. Is it to allow code in the kernel to inform a userland daemon that a routing lookup was performed and it failed, or is it to allow code in the kernel to have a userland daemon resolve a route for it? If it is the second, how does the userland daemon get an answer back to the kernel, considering that the userland daemon may need to do some network communication to get an answer?
