Hi,
I have a very basic question about netfilter and IP fragments. My
understanding is that the pre routing hook gets the fragmented packet
, which is later in defragged in local in in the ip_local_input funx.
ie If I print the skb in pre route hook, I shall get the individual
frags, whereas in local in hook I would get the complete packet. Is
this absolutely correct ?
Am I gettting the right picture or is there anything else that I should know?
I would be grateful if someone could clear my doubt. 
Sincerely,
Devesh Agrawal
