From a3c00e46efdb4009369971c97203ea67f7630fe4 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Martin KaFai Lau Date: Mon, 20 Oct 2014 13:42:43 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] ipv6: Remove BACKTRACK macro It is the prep work to reduce the number of calls to fib6_lookup(). The BACKTRACK macro could be hard-to-read and error-prone due to its side effects (mainly goto). This patch is to: 1. Replace BACKTRACK macro with a function (fib6_backtrack) with the following return values: * If it is backtrack-able, returns next fn for retry. * If it reaches the root, returns NULL. 2. The caller needs to decide if a backtrack is needed (by testing rt == net->ipv6.ip6_null_entry). 3. Rename the goto labels in ip6_pol_route() to make the next few patches easier to read.
