The short of it is that if a tx packet is < 64 bytes (min ethernet frame len), data can be leaked if the driver transmits 64 bytes. It seems our use of mbufs would prevent leakage but I haven't examined any drivers to verify this. http://www.atstake.com/research/advisories/2003/atstake_etherleak_report.pdf -Nate To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-net" in the body of the message
