sk_buff structure

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi,
The linux skbuff structure has an unsigned char *data. I believe that
it points to the actual data.
What data is this? Is this the data for the network layer (ie could
point to the transport layer header which is data for IP layer)? or is
this the data for the transport layer?
Also, what is the size of the unsigned char* data pointed  to by this
field? Is the
unsigned int len or unsigned int truesize or unsigned int data_len the
true lengths of this data?
Any help will be greatly appreciated!

Thanks and regards,
Rajat.
