Hi William,
Sorry for the delay,
I'm getting strange results on buf+len. Here's the result I'm getting
with same test as above:
[ 170.190995] buf: 5daf3333 buf+len: 5daf3333 len: 0
[ 170.194383] buf: 5daf3333 buf+len: 22c37039 len: 9
[ 170.199268] ------------[ cut here ]------------
...
[ 170.404810] buf: 5daf3333 buf+len: 22c37039 len: 9
[ 170.409663] ------------[ cut here ]------------
...
[ 170.615265] buf: 5daf3333 buf+len: 22c37039 len: 9
[ 170.620117] ------------[ cut here ]------------
...
increase
Hope this helps,
Fabrice
