Re: Marking an SKB as stolen

Hi, Adel,

The NF_STOLEN return code is not assigned to any sk_buff field as you know.

What would it give you if you could mark somehow the sk_buff with
NF_STOLEN? what do you want to achieve with it ? what is wrong with
how things are now- first calling the other hooks and then the NF_STOLEN?

Best,
