Re: Adding and deleting routes in hurd ??

["Thomas Bushnell, BSG" <tb@becket.net>]

A hurd ioctl has to also have something which documents the exact structure layout in a way that the library can use to reformat it into a Mach message. That's what the _IOT_foo thing would be. Since it's missing, the _IOW call fails.

Some ioctls can't be represented, for various reasons, and require special treatment in the library itself.

Hello,
Is it possible to add and delete routing information in hurd ..

In <bits/ioctls.h> i noticed the following snippet

<code>
#if 0
#define SIOCADDRT       _IOW('r', 10, struct ortentry)  /* add route */
#define SIOCDELRT       _IOW('r', 11, struct ortentry)  /* delete route */
#endif
</code>

So i copied and pasted these macros directly in a file and i get the
following error
error: '_IOT_ortentry' undeclared (first use in this function)

I cant seem to find any references to _IOT_ortentry (there are many
false positives with me not finding "any references", so about this i
do have my doubts).

Regards,
Harish
