Hi Martin, I agree about the issue, we talked a lot time before about this. But I would not complete remove the errno numbers.
The basic issue is that that mixed function can return errno or NET_RX_DROP/NET_RX_SUCCESS and we need to decide if we use NET_RX_DROP/NET_RX_SUCCESS only or using errno's but then we need a conversion of the errno to NET_RX_DROP at the end of receive call, If a errno was returned. If all functions return "-1" now, it's hard to debug what could be failed, when we add some debug prints in this file.

This should be also a consume_skb or dev_kfree_skb, we should not mix these function in this file and use only one of them.

Then check for if (stat < 0) to indicate a error. - Alex ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Infragistics Professional Build stunning WinForms apps today!
