Kernel networking code predominately uses the identifier 'skb' for a struct sk_buff pointer. Of 8088 instances of 'struct sk_buff *' within net/ 6670 are named 'skb'. Following the principle of least surprise, new networking code should use the identifier 'skb' for variables of type 'struct sk_buff *'. Rename identifier 'packet' to 'skb'. Signed-off-by: Tobin C.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
