Correct two errors which cancel each other out:
* Do not send twice the length of the actual provided by the user to the kernel
* Do not dump half the length of the cookie provided by the kernel
As the cookie is now stored in the kernel at its correct length rather
than double the that length cookies of up to the maximum size of 16 bytes
may now be stored rather than a maximum of half that length.
Output of dump is the same before and after this change,
but the data stored in the kernel is now exactly the cookie
rather than the cookie + as many trailing zeros.
Before:
# tc filter add dev eth0 protocol ip parent ffff: \
flower ip_proto udp action drop \
cookie 0123456789abcdef0123456789abcdef
RTNETLINK answers: Invalid argument
After:
# tc filter add dev eth0 protocol ip parent ffff: \
flower ip_proto udp action drop \
cookie 0123456789abcdef0123456789abcdef
# tc filter show dev eth0 ingress

How to compile this.
--------------------
1. libdbm
arpd needs to have the db4 development libraries. For Debian
users this is the package with a name like libdb4.x-dev.
DBM_INCLUDE points to the directory with db_185.h which
is the include file used by arpd to get to the old format Berkeley
database routines. Often this is in the db-devel package.
2. make
The makefile will automatically build a Config file which
contains whether or not ATM is available, etc.
3. To make documentation, cd to doc/ directory , then
look at start of Makefile and set correct values for
PAGESIZE=a4 , ie: a4 , letter ... (string)
PAGESPERPAGE=2 , ie: 1 , 2 ... (numeric)
and make there. It assumes, that latex, dvips and psnup
are in your path.
4. This package includes matching sanitized kernel headers because
the build environment may not have up to date versions. See Makefile
if you have special requirements and need to point at different
kernel include files.
