In article <000201c1f7ae$2c5c2110$4f6015ac@VAIO> (at Thu, 9 May 2002 16:06:37 -0700), "Xiaoning He" [off-list ref] says:
If so, I have looked into the Linux kernel, however, I don't know where in the Linux kernel the code will check the Neighbor. I tried to search the function ndisc_send_ns() because I think that's the function who will handle the sending the NS is there is no entry in the NC. However, it doesn't help.
skb->dst->output() is the entry to resolve neighbor when sending packets.
Also, I think I really need to know the Linux Kernel so that I don't need always ask this kind of question. Is there any good book and tutorial available which can give me a overall picture about how to program the networking program for both user-land and kernel in the Linux?
keep reading source codes.:-) --yoshfuji
