I think it's probably better to allow people to choose how to do it in their own code. Justin has already asked that we hang off on making any changes to the cam code until the M_ZERO flag is also available in -stable. Given that it is a relatively trivial change to add the M_ZERO flag I presume it can be MFCed quite quickly. We don't need to merge back the patch enabling it's use though. It's probably best kept as a "forward compatablilty" thing. David. To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message
