My observations with btle 6lowpan was that such parameter doesn't exists. IPHC will not increase the packet size of IPv6 afterwards, but decrease it. I thought about that LOWPAN_IPHC are the 2 bytes headers, but we will always save two bytes because the payload_length of ipv6 will be elided. Then I thought the CID byte will increase the payload at one byte, this is correct but when we add the CID byte, we need to compress at worst-case 8 bytes. After that I thought the nhc id will be at least increase currently the payload to one byte. This is correct, but when we set the NHC bit, then we save one byte because ipv6 next header byte will be elided. That's why everything should be fine until we have NHC's which have two bytes length until or NHC compression use more bytes than raw next header format.
