Name

skb_seq_read — Sequentially read skb data

Synopsis

unsigned int skb_seq_read (unsigned int  consumed,
 const u8 **  data,
 struct skb_seq_state *  st);

Arguments

consumed

number of bytes consumed by the caller so far

data

destination pointer for data to be returned

st

state variable

Description

Reads a block of skb data at &consumed relative to the lower offset specified to skb_prepare_seq_read. Assigns the head of the data block to &data and returns the length of the block or 0 if the end of the skb data or the upper offset has been reached.

The caller is not required to consume all of the data returned, i.e. &consumed is typically set to the number of bytes already consumed and the next call to skb_seq_read will return the remaining part of the block.

Note

Fragment lists within fragments are not implemented at the moment, state->root_skb could be replaced with a stack for this purpose.
