<qoute>
static int give_skb_to_upper(struct sk_buff *skb, struct net_device *dev)
{
	struct sk_buff *skb_cp;

	skb_cp = skb_copy(skb, GFP_ATOMIC);
	if (!skb_cp)
		return -ENOMEM;

Returning errno here.


	return netif_rx(skb_cp);

Returning NET_RX_FOO here. Here should be the same behaviour like below.
Only without a loop. Because the skb_share_check and only one lowpan
interface, I think we don't need the skb_copy here. This is out of scope
in this patch.

}

mhh, okay.

static int lowpan_give_skb_to_devices(struct sk_buff *skb,
                                      struct net_device *dev)
{
        struct lowpan_dev_record *entry;
        struct sk_buff *skb_cp;
        int stat = NET_RX_SUCCESS;

        rcu_read_lock();
        list_for_each_entry_rcu(entry, &lowpan_devices, list)
                if (lowpan_dev_info(entry->ldev)->real_dev == skb->dev) {
                        skb_cp = skb_copy(skb, GFP_ATOMIC);
                        if (!skb_cp) {
                                kfree_skb(skb);
                                rcu_read_unlock();
                                return NET_RX_DROP;
                        }

                        skb_cp->dev = entry->ldev;
                        stat = netif_rx(skb_cp);
			if (stat == NET_RX_DROP)
				break;
                }
        rcu_read_unlock();

	consume_skb(skb);

        return stat;
}

We don't need no explicit run of kfree_skb or consume_skb here. in
this case "skb" should only a skb where we create copies from. After
that we don't dropping the skb. Okay, we only drop it if allocation
failed. I this okay now or I overlooked something here?
