By moving the skb delivery out of IPHC you automatically fix the nightmare which is returning a mixture of NET_RX codes with error codes. IPHC now only returns error codes or success. Delivery is done where is should be in the receive function and can deal with NET_RX codes. >>> ok.

You can do that as cleanup into bluetooth-next. I would argue that the name must be changed as we are changing what the function does and so the name doesn't match what the function now does. > - Alex > -- > To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-wpan" in > the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org > More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html So my plan is to merge patches 1 and 2 into a single fix lowpan_rcv, incorporate your suggestions and send to bluetooth. Separate patch 3 into a new patch for linux-wpan-next. I think patch 3 should be to linux-wpan as it is fixing the fact that we don't correctly follow RFC 4944 and support fragmented IPv6 packets that have an uncompressed IPv6 header. What are you're thoughts on this. I would also be grateful for any testing by bluetooth developers as I can't physically test the code changes I have made to the bluetooth 6lowpan code. - Martin.
