[PATCH v4 06/12] pack-protocol: fix maximum pkt-line size

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



From: Lars Schneider <larsxschneider@xxxxxxxxx>

According to LARGE_PACKET_MAX in pkt-line.h the maximal length of a
pkt-line packet is 65520 bytes. The pkt-line header takes 4 bytes and
therefore the pkt-line data component must not exceed 65516 bytes.
