44 * This file defines the interface between network protocols and
45 * the cache of host-specific information maintained by the kernel.
46 * The generic interface takes care of inserting and deleting entries,
47 * maintaining mutual exclusion, and enforcing policy constraint on the
48 * size of the cache and the maximum age of its entries.
49 * It replaces an earlier scheme which overloaded the routing table
50 * for this purpose, and should be significantly more efficient
51 * at performing most operations. (It does keep a route to each
52 * entry in the cache.) Most protocols will want to define a
53 * structure which begins with `struct hcentry' so that they
54 * can keep additional, protocol-specific information in it.
