+ * This file defines the interface between network protocols and

+ * The generic interface takes care of inserting and deleting entries,
+ * maintaining mutual exclusion, and enforcing policy constraint on the
+ * size of the cache and the maximum age of its entries.
+ * It replaces an earlier scheme which overloaded the routing table
+ * for this purpose, and should be significantly more efficient
+ * at performing most operations. (It does keep a route to each
+ * entry in the cache.) Most protocols will want to define a
+ * structure which begins with `struct hcentry' so that they
+ * can keep additional, protocol-specific information in it.
