[PATCH 3.16 164/178] sr9700: use skb_cow_head() to deal with cloned skbs

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

 



3.16.46-rc1 review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@xxxxxxxxxx>

commit d532c1082f68176363ed766d09bf187616e282fe upstream.

We need to ensure there is enough headroom to push extra header,
but we also need to check if we are allowed to change headers.

skb_cow_head() is the proper helper to deal with this.
