[patch 28/32] xen: xen-netfront: use skb.cb for storing private data

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Netfront's use of nh.raw and h.raw for storing page+offset is a bit
hinky, and it breaks with upcoming network stack updates which reduce
these fields to sub-pointer sizes.  Fortunately, skb offers the "cb"
field specifically for stashing this kind of info, so use it.
