hello, I am studying kernel 2.4.20-8 kernel on RH9 and found that for UDP and ICMP packets skb_reserve is used for EThernet header but why TCP packet routines ip_queue_xmit & ip_queue_xmit2 are not using skb_reserve for Ethernet header? Where is header room is allocated for ethernet? If i am missing something please point out me. Thanks in advance. regards, linux_lover. __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo!
