I'm not particularly knowledgeable about the network code, so forgive me if I stumble a bit, but I'd like to get rid of the warning. I know that the lo0 interface isn't expected to get backed up, since the users are in the same machine, so setting the ifq_maxlen isn't of earthshaking importance, but is there a reason for not setting this anyhow (I think in if_loop.c)? It's either set it, or disable the warning, and I'm not in favor, usually, of disabling warnings. If this is the right way to go, I'll look more into making the change ... is it correct? ----------------------------+----------------------------------------------- Chuck Robey | Interests include any kind of voice or data chuckr@glue.umd.edu | communications topic, C programming, and Unix. 213 Lakeside Drive Apt T-1 | Greenbelt, MD 20770 | I run picnic (FreeBSD-current) (301) 220-2114 | and jaunt (Solaris7). ----------------------------+----------------------------------------------- To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message
