Looking in the patch series i am somehow confused as of two reasons:

- the ib_get_path_rec api does not seem to allow its consumer to specify 
a callback to be called when there is no path in the cache

- the ib_get_path_rec seems to only look in the index and return path 
only if there is cached one.

So is it an incomplete implementation just sent for review or i am 
missing something(s) ?

Or.
