It seems that this change was solely added to address issues with old TCP stack, which blindly queued packets intended for TX for potential further retransmission, expecting that the packet would remain intact during transmission. I think this assumption was wrong, as it's natural that lower layers append respective headers to the packet, and this "header stripping" behavior was specific for Ethernet L2 only. If an upper layer expects that the packet would need to be retransmitted at some point, it should clone it instead. Therefore, remove the L2 header stripping from the Ethernet L2 to avoid any potential issues in zero-copy case. Signed-off-by: Robert Lubos <robert.lubos@nordicsemi.no> |
