Linux 网络子系统之网络协议接口层（二）
这一篇主要围绕网络协议接口层的发送函数的解析
#### int dev_queue_xmit(struct sk_buff *skb) 函数解析
- 声明：
/* include/linux/netdevice.h */
int dev_queue_xmit(struct sk_buff *skb);
- 定义：
/* net/core/dev.c */
int dev_queue_xmit(struct sk_buff *skb)
{
return __dev_queue_xmit(skb, NULL);
}
EXPORT_SYMBOL(dev_queue_xmit);
/* __dev_queue_xmit() */
/**
* __dev_queue_xmit - transmit a buffer 传输一个缓冲区
* @skb: buffer to transmit 需要传输的缓冲区
* @accel_priv: private data used for L2 forwarding offload 需要顺带一起送过去的个人数据
* 将缓冲区制作成队列传输到一个网络设备，这个函数的使用必须先设置设备和优先级，
* 而且要先创建一个缓冲区在调用它之前，这个函数可以在一个中断中被调用。
* Queue a buffer for transmission to a network device. The caller must
* have set the device and priority and built the buffer before calling
* this function. The function can be called from an interrupt.
* 一个否定的错误码是返回一个错误数字，成功并不保证帧即将传输，
* 他可以因为缓冲向下传输造成堵塞或者流量控制。
* A negative errno code is returned on a failure. A success does not
* guarantee the frame will be transmitted as it may be dropped due
* to congestion or traffic shaping.
*
* -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
* I notice this method can also return errors from the queue disciplines,
* including NET_XMIT_DROP, which is a positive value. So, errors can also
* be positive.
*
* Regardless of the return value, the skb is consumed, so it is currently
* difficult to retry a send to this method. (You can bump the ref count
* before sending to hold a reference for retry if you are careful.)
*
* When calling this method, interrupts MUST be enabled. This is because
* the BH enable code must have IRQs enabled so that it will not deadlock.
* --BLG
