Description Ivan A. Beveridge 2005-09-07 08:00:19 UTC
Primarily, please put this into stable - at least for x86.

I have had long-running sflowtool v3.7 processes lasting for 20+ days (to do 
sflow -> netflow conversion, etc) without any noticeable problem.

For what it's worth, I compile with the extra "-DSPOOFSOURCE" CFLAG, as I need it.

It would be nice to include the source-spoofing option as part of the sflowtool 
build. Alternatively have some kind of build option/flag that can be set.

This compiles code in to make the sflowtool -S flag exist, which is 
useful for sflow stream fan-out to multiple collectors.

The ebuild needs to add the following extra CFLAG:
 -DSPOOFSOURCE

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1.
2.
3.

Actual Results:  
works fine :)

Thanks notification and thanks for patch Marcelo.

Forgot to add, have put changes in CVS and will mark as stable in 2 weeks
assuming no complaints to the contrary.
Comment 4 Ivan A. Beveridge 2005-09-08 04:08:25 UTC
Merge works as intended, and it runs as expected with the -S flag (which is only
built in with the -DSPOOFSOURCE CFLAG).
Comment 5 Ivan A. Beveridge 2005-09-23 08:50:19 UTC
This works fine, as expected, and stably. Would it be possible/suitable to mark
(at least) the x86 as stable?
