R> I second Adrian's comments and I would like to add that you must NOT commit something like this, breaking the ABI, when you discussed this *ONE YEAR* ago with only two people (one of them is not very active in the networking stack). This is against all reasonable software development practices.

- This wasn't discussed privately but on svn-src-head@ mailing list. You could
  participate.

- No objections were raised one year ago. The code of if_cloners hasn't
  any single change during this year.

- If you mean that brooks@ is not very active in networking stack,
  then I will point your attention to the fact that he is the
  original author of interface cloners.

Now my questions:

- Do we have any policy that doesn't permit changing ABI in head?
- Apart from the ABI is there anything wrong with the r241610?

P.S. And yes, please don't use top-quoting on FreeBSD mailing lists:
