Subject: [PATCH 7/9] net: add skb_orphan_frags to copy aside frags with destructors
Date: Thu, 3 May 2012 15:56:09 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1336056971-7839-7-git-send-email-ian.campbell@citrix.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1336056915.20716.96.camel@zakaz.uk.xensource.com>

This should be used by drivers which need to hold on to an skb for an extended
(perhaps unbounded) period of time. e.g. the tun driver which relies on
userspace consuming the skb.
