but, what about any dynamic routing protocols programs? do they usually work
on userspace? (bird, for example, as kernel-aodv works on kernel space, so
its tables can't be probably swapped - i suppose, as it uses kmalloc -,
although there are other aodv implementations that may run as userspace
daemons)
