From 39fba7835aacda65284a86e611774cbba71dac20 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Eric Dumazet Date: Wed, 19 Apr 2017 09:59:26 -0700 Subject: kaweth: use skb_cow_head() to deal with cloned skbs We can use skb_cow_head() to properly deal with clones, especially the ones coming from TCP stack that allow their head being modified. This avoids a copy. Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet Cc: James Hughes Signed-off-by: David S.
