Subject: [RFC v2 1/2] net: Support RXFCS feature flag.
Date: Fri, 24 Jun 2011 12:06:10 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1308942371-12748-2-git-send-email-greearb@candelatech.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1308942371-12748-1-git-send-email-greearb@candelatech.com>
From: Ben Greear <greearb@candelatech.com>
When set, this causes the Ethernet FCS to be appended
to the end of the skb.
Useful for sniffing packets.
