Subject: dev->hard_header ?
Date: Wed, 20 Nov 2002 11:46:20 +0900 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <005201c2903f$37e88580$21abfe81@seong> (raw)
In Layer 3 Protocols(eg. IP, IPv6, ...),
they calls dev_queue_xmit() to send their data.
Before calling dev_queue_xmit(),
does the layer 3 protocols always call dev->hard_header ?
Actually, I'm not sure when dev->hard_header is called.
I think dev->hard_start_xmit can include the part of dev->hard_header.
Why did the developer seperate the header building and sending frame
fucntion ?
thanks in advance.
