Subject: [PATCH] ipip.c & ip_gre.c (Add Tunnel return)
Date: Tue, 25 Sep 2001 15:26:28 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20010925152628.A8042@ecam.san.rr.com> (raw)

I think the tunnel drivers should return the name of the
device the tunnel add created. Currently the tunnel_lookup
functions copy the name into the stack var in the ioctl
function but the ioctl copies the parm from the tunnel
device.
