Hi Dave, >> This is used when there is no L2 header before IP header. >> Example of this is Bluetooth 6LoWPAN network. >> >> The RAWIP header type value is already used in some Android kernels >> so same value is used here in order not to break userspace. >> >> Signed-off-by: Jukka Rissanen <jukka.rissanen@linux.intel.com> > > I'm not applying patches like this until there is an actual user, > and this therefore goes for patch #2 as well. patches for Bluetooth 6loWPAN have been posted to linux-bluetooth for review. So there is an actual user here. If you do not want to merge these patches at this point, that is totally fine. We can happily carry them through bluetooth-next and wireless-next trees as well. Posting them on netdev is mainly for checking that the changes we have to make outside the Bluetooth subsystem are in sync. So that they are reviewed and have been seen before. If you have any general objections to these assignments or changes, please let us now.

Changes without use context and examples cannot be reviewed.

This is used when there is no L2 header before IP header. Example of this is Bluetooth 6LoWPAN network. The RAWIP header type value is already used in some Android kernels so same value is used here in order not to break userspace.
