The value of len here is how many bytes were returned by recv. We do send the entire nlmsg_len to userspace, but recv cannot copy the full packet because the buffer is not big enough to hold this. They only allocate the buffer assuming that the packet won't be bigger than their snap len, but we send more data than their snap len and they don't handle this condition well. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe netfilter-devel" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
