10

ARGUMENTS

12       skb

DESCRIPTION

19       Duplicate an sk_buff. The new one is not owned by a socket. Both copies
20       share the same packet data but not structure. The new buffer has a
21       reference count of 1. If the allocation fails the function returns NULL
22       otherwise the new buffer is returned.
23
24       If this function is called from an interrupt gfp_mask must be
25       GFP_ATOMIC.
