skb_dst_set_noref9

Sets skb dst, hopefully, without taking reference

Arguments

skb

buffer

dst

dst entry

Overview

Sets skb dst, assuming a reference was not taken on dst. If dst entry is cached, we do not take reference and dst_release will be avoided by refdst_drop. If dst entry is not cached, we take reference, so that last dst_release can destroy the dst immediately.
