Subject: hard_start_xmit struct sk_buff read-only?
Date: Sat, 22 Dec 2007 07:32:41 +0100 (CET)	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <249190.1925.qm@web52006.mail.re2.yahoo.com> (raw)

An old article about Linux's network drivers mentioned
that the struct sk_buff whose pointer is passed to a
driver's hard_start_xmit function is read-only to the
function. Is that still so? If it is, there is no
mention about it in the kernel tree as far as I know.
