  i undetstood it that eg. from tcp to ip layer at ip later skb->data contains tcp header and application data.
  Thanks for your help.
  one last thing i want to know that is kernel allocates total size of all tcp/ip layer headers + data at start of building packet headers? If yes where can i find that line in kernel source?
