Subject: Source code compatibility in Stable series????
Date: Fri, 11 May 2001 11:47:59 +0200 (MEST)	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <200105110947.LAA18167@cave.bitwizard.nl> (raw)


Hi,

It seems that in 2.4.4 suddenly the function "skb_cow" no longer
returns the modified skb, but it retuns and integer for
succes/failure.

This means that for networking modules requiring this function, there
is no source code compatibilty between 2.4.3 and 2.4.4.

			Roger.
