26  * Skip any extension headers. This is used by the ICMP module.
27  *
28  * Note that strictly speaking this conflicts with RFC 2460 4.0:
29  * ...The contents and semantics of each extension header determine whether
30  * or not to proceed to the next header.  Therefore, extension headers must
31  * be processed strictly in the order they appear in the packet; a
32  * receiver must not, for example, scan through a packet looking for a
33  * particular kind of extension header and process that header prior to
34  * processing all preceding ones.
35  *
36  * We do exactly this. This is a protocol bug. We can't decide after a
37  * seeing an unknown discard-with-error flavour TLV option if it's a
38  * ICMP error message or not (errors should never be send in reply to
39  * ICMP error messages).
40  *
41  * But I see no other way to do this. This might need to be reexamined
42  * when Linux implements ESP (and maybe AUTH) headers.
43  * --AK
44  *
45  * This function parses (probably truncated) exthdr set "hdr".
46  * "nexthdrp" initially points to some place,
47  * where type of the first header can be found.
48  *
49  * It skips all well-known exthdrs, and returns pointer to the start
50  * of unparsable area i.e. the first header with unknown type.
51  * If it is not NULL *nexthdr is updated by type/protocol of this header.
52  *
53  * NOTES: - if packet terminated with NEXTHDR_NONE it returns NULL.
54  *        - it may return pointer pointing beyond end of packet,
55  *	    if the last recognized header is truncated in the middle.
56  *        - if packet is truncated, so that all parsed headers are skipped,
57  *	    it returns NULL.
58  *	  - First fragment header is skipped, not-first ones
59  *	    are considered as unparsable.
60  *	  - ESP is unparsable for now and considered like
61  *	    normal payload protocol.
62  *	  - Note also special handling of AUTH header. Thanks to IPsec wizards.
