ip_build_header() vs ip_build_xmit()

Hi, All.

Kernel-2.0.32 code
Does TCP only use ip_build_header() and ip_queue_xmit() from IP, not
ip_build_xmit()?
Then,is it right that ip_build_xmit() transmits a IP-packet without
buffering for retransmission? So it serves IP Raw interface and UDP?

I'm confusing about functions.
Please, help me.

If I can get explanations on functions or flow chart of any kernel
version, I will be really glad. (Inside of IP & ARP)

Regards,
Heejin.
