[ovs-dev] [PATCH v11 06/14] dp-packet: Handle multi-seg mbufs in helper funcs.

2018-10-10 Thread Tiago Lam
Most helper functions in dp-packet assume that the data held by a dp_packet is contiguous, and perform operations such as pointer arithmetic under that assumption. However, with the introduction of multi-segment mbufs, where data is non-contiguous, such assumptions are no longer possible. Some exam
