Hello, I am writing a kernel-module, that involves sending/receiving n/w pkts (over UDP and over Ethernet both). Should I be checking for non-linear skbuff's and linearizing them before I process the packets? Is this to be done for _both_ UDP and Ethernet receive paths? I guess the question is: Is is it possible that the Ethernet driver and/or IP layer give you non-linear skbuffs. if yes, then I better be linearizing them before analyzing the pkt data. right? Iam using Redhat 2.4.9-13 kernel. thanks in advance, -A. __________________________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo! Mail Plus – Powerful. Affordable.
