hello,
In kernel 2.4.30 i observe that when my
ethernet card received packet and uses alloc_skb its
not placing all skb->data,skb->head,skb->tail to same
statring location instead i found it places skb->data
and skb->tail have 10 locations more that skb->head.
For what purpose this 10 bytes are reserved
in skbuff also i am not able to see that skb_reserve
as theres no call to skb_reserve and i am printing
skbuff pointer values just after it gets allocated.
Thanks in advance,
linux_lover
