Netdev 0x13 - Skb Meta Data Extensions
Channel: netdevconf
Date: 26/05/2019

Florian Westphal goes into the deep guts of the skb meta data extensions feature he added.

Dynamic skb metadata extension is a refreshing new feature added upstream recently (see commit df5042f4c5b9). A net subsystem can associate metadatum to an skb through its life span without affecting the size of the sk_buff structure.
