Hi,
        I want to know what the field, ihl in the struct iphdr is there
for, I mean its function and the values it takes in different condition.
Specifically, what is the condition when ihl>5.

(See ip_input.c , line 497, depending on if ihl>5, some code is getting
executed.)

I am talking of 2.2.16
