Hi all, I am trying to understand the tcp/ip implementation in Linux. My doubt is where the ethernet header is being formed for the outgoing packet. I was able to know that it is being cached in dst_entry as "struct hh_cache" held by both neighbour table as well as rtable. This reduces the time taken to form ethernet header for each and every packet going out. But I was not able to see where exactly the cached ethernet header is being pushed into sk_buff holding our packet. As I see eth_header(ethernet/eth.c) pushes the header into sk_buff but this func is not being called by anybody? Can any body help? -- vamshi varma vamshiv@onebox.com - email (626) 940-1240 x7173 - voicemail/fax __________________________________________________ FREE voicemail, email, and fax...all in one place.
