[PATCH RFC 1/2] skbuff: Function to send an skbuf on a socket

From: Tom Herbert <hidden>
Date: 2017-06-29 18:27:53
Subsystem: networking [general], the rest · Maintainers: "David S. Miller", Eric Dumazet, Jakub Kicinski, Paolo Abeni, Linus Torvalds

Add skb_send_sock to send an skbuff on a socket within the kernel.
Arguments include and offset so that an skbuf might be sent in mulitple
calls (e.g.  send buffer limit is hit).
