Thanks Eric for clarifying. I was confusing it with with the broader meaning of revocation i.e. certificate revocation list. To avoid similar confusion in the future, I wonder if we should call it as 'blocklist' or 'denylist' as suggested in the document. This is to avoid conflicts with actual CRL support if added in the future. I also wonder if we should add the clarification in the patch description.Reject-list might be better.
As far as naming goes, I have no preference. If we can come to an agreement on the name, I can change it if needed. Or David, if you want to pull it into your tree and change the naming again, I’m fine with whatever you pick. Just let me know how you would like to handle it.
