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 daem

I'm trying to write a pseudo interface, but I'm confused about
my responsibilities for the _ioctl() command.
It seems that for the assigning of an address, I simply need to
return 0 to indicate that address family is ok, as the higher level
functions handle the actuall assignment of addresses
I'm writing an interface to implement something like the DTI interface
from draft-ietf-ngtrans-dstm-03.txt
As part of that, I need to have a userland daemon (a modified dhcp
client) assign an address to the interface, which is easy using the
ioctl mechanism.
The tricky bit is finding a way f
