Hi, All.

Kernel-2.0.3x code,

In BSD-socket layer, INET layer, and interface layer, does each layer use
different buffering lists (queueing) for output and input transfer data of
networking? one queue for output data, and the other queue for input data
in each layer? isn't it?

For example in the interface layer, I thought in the layer, the output and
input data are in the both different data structures for buffering list
individually. As a result, the output and input data is not mixed
together in one buffering list. isn't it?

I'm confusing about them when I plan to simulate the networking of
Linux useing queueing system.. Please, help me.

Regards,

Rob,
