I tripped over a feature in another OS that allowed aligning the network buffers to any ^2 boundary. I have a driver that that would substantially simplify the code. Is there any reason I can not ask for a read SKB that is sufficiently much larger than I need and then align it by altering the data pointer ? It there a way I can persuade Linux to give me xmit skb's aligned as I want them ? -- Dave Lynch DLA Systems Software Development: Embedded Linux 717.627.3770 dhlii@xxxxxxxxxx http://www.dlasys.net fax: 1.253.369.9244 Cell: 1.717.587.7774 Over 25 years' experience in platforms, languages, and technologies too numerous to list.
