Hello there,
I am working in a simple netfilter module, and in some situations it has to duplicate received IP packets. It does this with something like:
clone_skb = skb_clone(skb, GFP_ATOMIC); ip_rcv(clone_skb, clone_skb->dev, NULL); return NF_ACCEPT;
Should I call kfree_skb(clone_skb) after the ip_rcv(), or will the cloned sk_buff be freed when it reaches upper level protocols?
Sorry if the question is really not netfilter specific, but it is related to another question I will do next.
Thanks in advance,
