tcf_block_get() sounds odd. tcf_block_create()?

I used get/put because I plan to allow sharing of block between qdiscs
in future. Then there will be a refcount.


Ok, I guess I should read further into the patches..

+static struct tcf_block *atm_tc_tcf_block(struct Qdisc *sch, unsigned long cl)

Any reason you removed the verb "find" from all these calls?
eg above: better to have atm_tc_tcf_block_find()?

Yeah, I was thinking about it. The thing is, the callback does not do
any lookup so "find" is not accurate. Also without "find" this is
shorter so I decided for this naming variant.


They do select some chain - at least that was the intent.
Are you not planning to use this to pick a chain in a block?

cheers,
jamal
