Hi,
We are working on a module in which we plan to utilize the t_suspend/t_continue functions of the tm module. t_suspend is straightforward and is working as expected, it seems.
The last parameter of t_continue is of type 'struct action', which I can see is defined in route_struct.h as:
struct action{ int cline; char *cfile; enum action_type type; /* forward, drop, log, send ...*/ int count; struct action* next; action_u_t val[MAX_ACTIONS]; };
Does anyone have any practical advice on how to create an action to be used in t_continue?
Also... when t_continue is called, does it continue processing in the process that calls t_continue, or is execution handed off to another process?
Thank you!

So, we found the route_get function from route.h, which we can use like so to get the first action of a given named route:
n = route_get(&main_rt, "foo");
struct action *a = main_rt.rlist[n];
Related to this question, though... is there a way to obtain the currently processing action, so that we could continue with the next action?
And one more question: is there a way to copy all private memory into shared memory, and then later restore it? I ask this, as $var (and probably other) data is lost between t_suspend and t_resume.
Thank you for any assistance!
