Hello,
Is there a preferred desktop linux distro for testing net-next kernels on a
amd64 desktop machine ?
Ideally, I would like to run the latest net-next kernel on my Ubuntu 13.10
amd64 dev box.
Are there any docs that show how to build a net-next kernel for use with
Ubuntu or other preferred

Applied to net-next, thanks.

On receiving side we don't need to set any headers in skb because the
6LoWPAN layer do not access it. Currently these values will set twice
after calling netif_rx.

This is necessary to access network header with the skb_network_header
function instead of calculate the position with mac_len, etc.
Do the same for the transport header, when we replace the IPv6 header
with the 6LoWPAN header.

This patch drops the direct memcpy on skb and uses the right skb
memcpy functions. Also remove an unnecessary check if plen is non zero.

Set the mac header length while creating the 802.15.4 mac header.
Drop the function for recalculate mac header length in upper layers
which was static and works for intra pan communication only.
