When Sven added this header structure, did he also add a function to fill it in?
No, I didn't. The header structure part was just the "keep it safe" thing. The fancy stuff can come later. And I am not sure whether such a function would be useful. More interesting would be the TTL cleanup that Linus proposed a long time ago.
Kind regards, Sven
