find |xargs grep. Will run a lot faster because it runs one grep for several
hundred files, rather than one per file. F
Something else you could look at is Coccinelle.
http://coccinelle.lip6.fr/
The tool can be used to find very specific pattern in
the code. For instance specific structure field that are
used without initialization.
It takes some learning but the tool is very powerful.
You can also check here for
ctags + cscope + vim

Here you can see where sk_buff structure is delared.

May be you want to get familiar on how to use opengroks interface by seeing
some youtube video or some online documents...

Well, you can search for a field's use using free-text search, then looks
at the line of code to figure out
I like Opengrok. It is insanely fast in giving search results. However it
takes sometime to setup and you need to index it before the first use.
If you are ok with browsing someold kernels, then you can use this link
http://androidxref.com/kernel_3.18/ which is maintained privately.
