hello, I want to know which is right function to remove header from skbuff. I found in 2.4.20-8 kernel on RH9 that at some places __skb_pull is called whereas some places skb_pull() is called. Also why only __skb_pull or skb_pull calls are there without return value assignment? e.g. why not skb->data=skb_pull(skb,dev->hard_headerlen); instead skb_pull(skb,dev->hard_headerlen); regards, linux_lover. __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
