From: David S. Miller Date: Mon, 18 Jun 2012 02:47:34 +0000 (-0700) Subject: ipv4: Cap ADVMSS metric in the FIB rather than the routing cache. X-Git-Url: http://drtracing.org/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=6fac262526ee91ee66210b8919a4297dcf7d544e;p=deliverable%2Flinux.git ipv4: Cap ADVMSS metric in the FIB rather than the routing cache. It makes no sense to execute this limit test every time we create a routing cache entry. We can't simply error out on these things since we've silently accepted and truncated them forever.
