ok, I will always get the callback for now and ignore a return of 1. Is this the expected behavior because it does not match the documentation.

I can look at changing the implementation but I'm curious about what
specifically in the documentation you are referring to.

at.h

* The following asynchronous resolution function behavior is as follows:
*    If the resolve operation can be fulfilled immediately, then the output
*    structures are set and the number of filled structures is returned.
*
*    If the resolve operation cannot by fulfilled immediately and
*    an ib_at_completion structure is not provided,
*    then the function immediately returns -EWOULDBLOCK.
*
*     If ib_at_completion structure is provided and an asynchronous
*    operation is started, the function immediately returns zero,
*    and the request ID field (req_id) is set if the pointer is
*    non NULL. This request ID may be used to cancel the operation,
*    or to poll its status.

Your implementation is fine, as long as the correct return values are used
and the sync version works. I currently get returned a 1 but the ib_route
data is not filled in and the req_id == 0. I would expect a 0 returned and a
valid req_id if the ib_route cannot be processed.

for ret = ib_at_route_by_ip( async_cb provided ), I read this as:
 if ret > 0  then ib_route output data is written, resolve complete
 if ret == 0 then req_id is written with valid id to cancel or poll
 if ret < 0 error

Am I reading this right?
