Ask yourself *how* is the destructor invoked ? You can find *how* here: SKB socket accounting <http://vger.kernel.org/%7Edavem/skb_sk.html> So now if you run: find . -name '*.c' | xargs grep -r -F "skb->destructor" you will have what you are looking for :) Hope this helps and this will help: http://vger.kernel.org/~davem/skb.html <http://vger.kernel.org/%7Edavem/skb_sk.html> Aruna
