Is this really the same behavior as 3.17? In 3.17, allocating the new skb is one of the first things the interrupt handler does, and if that fails it drops the packet and keeps using the old skb. In this proposal, it's only after the packet has been received and the old skb has been freed that a new one is allocated. And if that fails --- well, what are you expecting to happen exactly? -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-wireless" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
