From 56193d1bce2b2759cb4bdcc00cd05544894a0c90 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Alexander Duyck Date: Fri, 5 Sep 2014 19:20:26 -0400 Subject: net: Add function for parsing the header length out of linear ethernet frames This patch updates some of the flow_dissector api so that it can be used to parse the length of ethernet buffers stored in fragments. Most of the changes needed were to __skb_get_poff as it needed to be updated to support sending a linear buffer instead of a skb. I have split __skb_get_poff into two functions, the first is skb_get_poff and it retains the functionality of the original __skb_get_poff. The other function is __skb_get_poff which now works much like __skb_flow_dissect in relation to skb_flow_dissect in that it provides the same functionality but works with just a data buffer and hlen instead of needing an skb.
