Did you actually talk to James Leu before embarking on this rather valiant effort? If you did he may have warned you that the code was being rewritten from scratch. The code rewrite belongs to Dave Miller; i am adding user space support. James has been invited to look at that code once it is deemed working. If you want to be on the list as well, let me know. I am sure you as will James will both have valuable input.
now that is interesting. I have a working patch for adding netfilter hooks to the old MPLS stack. If your rewrite doesn't yet have some, I'll gladly add them. I also have a working implementation of the draft-ietf-mpls-lsp-ping-01 based on the netfilter hooks for James Leu's MPLS implementation, btw.
cheers, jamal
