This is a real device. I don't understand your question? Packets
aren't being stolen.

No, insert_ifa() allocates a struct iwch_addrlist, which has 2 fields: a
list_head for linking, and a struct in_ifaddr pointer.

There are two causes where this is called: 1) during module init to
populate the list of iwarp addresses. If we failed in that case then, I
_could_ then not register. 2) we get called via the notifier mechanism
when an address is added. If that fails, the caller doesn't care (since
we're on the notifier callout thread). But the code could perhaps
unregister the device. I prefer just logging an error in case 2. I'll
look into not registering if we cannot get any address due to lack of
memory. But there's another case: we load the module and the admin
hasn't yet created the ethX:iw interface.
Perhaps I should change the code to only register as a working rdma
device _when_ we get at least one ethX:iwY interface created? Whatchathink?

It is kinda crappy. But I don't see a better solution. Any ideas?

Do you mean I shouldn't use sizeof *le, but rather sizeof(struct
iwch_listen_entry)? Is that the preferred coding style?

That would be much better IMO, but the problem is that I cannot create
an alias without an actual ip address. Unless we change the core
services to allow it.
Thanks for reviewing!
