27 * Skip any extension headers. This is used by the ICMP module.
28 *
29 * Note that strictly speaking this conflicts with RFC 2460 4.0:
30 * ...The contents and semantics of each extension header determine whether
31 * or not to proceed to the next header. Therefore, extension headers must
32 * be processed strictly in the order they appear in the packet; a
33 * receiver must not, for example, scan through a packet looking for a
34 * particular kind of extension header and process that header prior to
35 * processing all preceding ones.
36 *
37 * We do exactly this. This is a protocol bug. We can't decide after a
38 * seeing an unknown discard-with-error flavour TLV option if it's a
39 * ICMP error message or not (errors should never be send in reply to
40 * ICMP error messages).
41 *
42 * But I see no other way to do this. This might need to be reexamined
43 * when Linux implements ESP (and maybe AUTH) headers.
44 * --AK
45 *
46 * This function parses (probably truncated) exthdr set "hdr".
47 * "nexthdrp" initially points to some place,
48 * where type of the first header can be found.
49 *
50 * It skips all well-known exthdrs, and returns pointer to the start
51 * of unparsable area i.e. the first header with unknown type.
52 * If it is not NULL *nexthdr is updated by type/protocol of this header.
53 *
54 * NOTES: - if packet terminated with NEXTHDR_NONE it returns NULL.
55 * - it may return pointer pointing beyond end of packet,
56 * if the last recognized header is truncated in the middle.
57 * - if packet is truncated, so that all parsed headers are skipped,
58 * it returns NULL.
59 * - First fragment header is skipped, not-first ones
60 * are considered as unparsable.
61 * - Reports the offset field of the final fragment header so it is
62 * possible to tell whether this is a first fragment, later fragment,
63 * or not fragmented.
64 * - ESP is unparsable for now and considered like
65 * normal payload protocol.
66 * - Note also special handling of AUTH header. Thanks to IPsec wizards.
