本文介绍了Linux内核中skb缓冲区的管理方法，包括如何分配、调整头部空间等关键操作，并解释了为什么在分配时需要预留额外的空间以确保IP头部能够进行4字节对齐。

/**
*      dev_alloc_skb - allocate an skbuff for receiving
*      @length: length to allocate
*
*      Allocate a new &sk_buff and assign it a usage count of one. The
*      buffer has unspecified headroom built in. Users should allocate
*      the headroom they think they need without accounting for the
*      built in space. The built in space is used for optimisations.
*
*      %NULL is returned if there is no free memory. Although this function
*      allocates memory it can be called from an interrupt.

return __dev_alloc_skb(length, GFP_ATOMIC);
}

首先L2的地址一共是14(6+6+2)个BYTE，而MAC+IP+TCP/UDP结构为：L2+L3(IP addr)+L4。

按照常理L2地址是在L3后加, 所以在ALLOCSKB的时候要留14个BYTE,为了以后给L2用.但是计算机一般是4字节对齐的, 如果留14个BYTE那么IP只能排在15个byte位子, ip头要经常访问所以这样效率似乎不好.于是在预留2个(14+2 = 16) 正好让IP头4字节对齐.

/**
*      skb_reserve - adjust headroom
*      @skb: buffer to alter
*      @len: bytes to move
*
*      Increase the headroom of an empty &sk_buff by reducing the tail
*      room. This is only allowed for an empty buffer.

static inline void skb_reserve(struct sk_buff *skb, int len)
{
        skb->data += len;
        skb->tail += len;
}

skb_reserve(skb,2);

The networking layer currently aligns IP headers in rx packets. It does this via skb_reserve(,2).skb_put 于 skb_push:

skb_put() 增长数据区的长度来为memcpy准备空间. 许多的网络操作需要加入一些桢头, 这可以使用skb_push来将数据区向后推, 为头留出空间.
