Do you see something that >couldn't be configured/modelled with those blocks? How about an arbitrary BPF program?

That is making it a wild animal and challenges us to wrap it up in kernel, somehow. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe netdev" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
