Subject: [libnetfilter_queue] extra data after payload
Date: Fri, 23 Sep 2011 18:19:32 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <j5ibim$sen$1@dough.gmane.org> (raw)

Hi,

when reading queue data via the recv() function
then one gets a return value much longer than the payload data,
so there are some extra data after the payload.
What kind of extra data is it?

for example:
   rv  = recv(fd, buf, sizeof(buf), 0);   // rv=84
   ...
   ret = nfq_get_payload(tb, &data);      // ret=40 (ie. ip + tcp pkt, both w/o options, and tcp w/o user data)

So, here, what are the extra 44 bytes after the tcp data?
