1 Steve's quick list of things that need finishing off:
2 [they are in no particular order and range from the trivial to the long winded]
3
4 o Proper timeouts on each neighbour (in routing mode) rather than
5 just the 60 second On-Ethernet cache value.
6
7 o Support for X.25 linklayer
8
9 o Support for DDCMP link layer
10
11 o The DDCMP device itself
12
13 o PPP support (rfc1762)
14
15 o Lots of testing with real applications
16
17 o Verify errors etc. against POSIX 1003.1g (draft)
18
19 o Using send/recvmsg() to get at connect/disconnect data (POSIX 1003.1g)
20 [maybe this should be done at socket level... the control data in the
21 send/recvmsg() calls should simply be a vector of set/getsockopt()
22 calls]
23
24 o check MSG_CTRUNC is set where it should be.
25
26 o Start to hack together user level software and add more DECnet support
27 in ifconfig for example.
28
29 o Test adding/deleting of routes
30
31 o Test route lookup
32
33 o Test /proc/net/decnet_route route listing works correctly (maybe I'll
34 change the format of this file... atm its very similar to the IPv4 route
35 file)
36
37 o Find all the commonality between DECnet and IPv4 routing code and extract
38 it into a small library of routines. [probably a project for 2.5.xx]
39
40 o Test ip_gre tunneling works... it did the last time I tested it and it
41 will have to if I'm to test routing properly.
42
43 o Hello messages should be generated for each primary address on each
44 interface.
45
46 o Add more information into /proc/net/decnet and finalise the format to
47 allow DECnet support in netstat.
48
49 o Make sure that returned connect messages are generated when they should
50 be, and that the correct error messages are sent too.
51
52 o Add the routing message grabbing netfilter module [written, tested,
53 awaiting merge]
54
55 o Add perfect socket hashing - an idea suggested by Paul Koning [part written,
56 awaiting debugging and merge]
