Sorry, I guess I was being dense.
I thought packets were by definition complete... :)
I think you're saying this is one of N fragments
which the minidriver will be re-assembling into
a bigger packet, before somehow passing it up
the stack...
I attach my doc update patch. (should be the
same as what I sent before. Consider my apology
for using an attachment as repeated here; my email
setup remains partly broken). Can you send
a version of your defrag-enabling patch which
applies on top of it, and documents your new
calling convention (with a third return case
for rx_process() too?
