Why do we clear full 48 bytes skb->cb[] in skb_alloc(), if no protocol stack should rely it being zero ?
Unless a protocol is allocating the skb itself, then the fact that skb_alloc clears skb->cb is no guarantee that the skb->cb will be zero. Thanks, -- Email: Herbert Xu [off-list ref] Home Page: http://gondor.apana.org.au/~herbert/ PGP Key: http://gondor.apana.org.au/~herbert/pubkey.txt
