François, Thank you for providing information about rose_rebuild_header history. I was not able to find Jonathan Naylor G4KLX email. However as rose_xmit() has been recently changed by Eric Biederman, he may have more precise information about rose_route_frame() NULL argument. Meanwhile, I browsed into rose_route.c release 001 you referenced and found an interesting comment before rose_route_frame() : +/* + * Route a frame to an appropriate AX.25 connection. A NULL ax25_cb + * indicates an internally generated frame. + */ +int rose_route_frame(struct sk_buff *skb, ax25_cb *ax25)
Now, I hope that ROSE guru will explain us what means an "internally generated frame" and if, by chance, it means that it is not to be sent via a net device, but rather to be used locally ? Bernard
