上面蓝色部分是对于网路套接字缓冲区结构的解释，红色部分是对于该结构体具体成员变量的解析；
其中在程序中使用到成员是data,end,tail,head等，当该结构在各协议层传输时，变动的也是data部分。需要重点理解的也主要是这几个关键成员变量；
该结构定义的文件：/linux-3.15/include\linux/skbuff.h,
而主要对该结构成员解释的文件是：/linux-3.15/net/core/skbuff.c
/**
*struct sk_buff - socket buffer* @next: Next buffer in list
* @prev: Previous buffer in list
* @tstamp: Time we arrived/left
* @sk: Socket we are owned by
* @dev: Device we arrived on/are leaving by
* @cb: Control buffer. Free for use by every layer. Put private vars here
* @_skb_refdst: destination entry (with norefcount bit)
* @sp: the security path, used for xfrm
* @len: Length of actual data
* @data_len: Data length
* @mac_len: Length of link layer header
* @hdr_len: writable header length of cloned skb
* @csum: Checksum (must include start/offset pair)
* @csum_start: Offset from skb->head where checksumming should start
* @csum_offset: Offset from csum_start where checksum should be stored
* @priority: Packet queueing priority
* @local_df: allow local fragmentation
* @cloned: Head may be cloned (check refcnt to be sure)
* @ip_summed: Driver fed us an IP checksum
* @nohdr: Payload reference only, must not modify header
* @nfctinfo: Relationship of this skb to the connection
* @pkt_type: Packet class
* @fclone: skbuff clone status
* @ipvs_property: skbuff is owned by ipvs
* @peeked: this packet has been seen already, so stats have been
* done for it, don't do them again
* @nf_trace: netfilter packet trace flag
* @protocol: Packet protocol from driver
* @destructor: Destruct function
* @nfct: Associated connection, if any
* @nf_bridge: Saved data about a bridged frame - see br_netfilter.c
* @skb_iif: ifindex of device we arrived on
* @tc_index: Traffic control index
* @tc_verd: traffic control verdict
* @hash: the packet hash
* @queue_mapping: Queue mapping for multiqueue devices
* @ndisc_nodetype: router type (from link layer)
* @ooo_okay: allow the mapping of a socket to a queue to be changed
* @l4_hash: indicate hash is a canonical 4-tuple hash over transport
* ports.
* @wifi_acked_valid: wifi_acked was set
* @wifi_acked: whether frame was acked on wifi or not
* @no_fcs: Request NIC to treat last 4 bytes as Ethernet FCS
* @dma_cookie: a cookie to one of several possible DMA operations
* done by skb DMA functions
* @napi_id: id of the NAPI struct this skb came from
* @secmark: security marking
* @mark: Generic packet mark
* @dropcount: total number of sk_receive_queue overflows
* @vlan_proto: vlan encapsulation protocol
* @vlan_tci: vlan tag control information
* @inner_protocol: Protocol (encapsulation)
* @inner_transport_header: Inner transport layer header (encapsulation)
* @inner_network_header: Network layer header (encapsulation)
* @inner_mac_header: Link layer header (encapsulation)
* @transport_header: Transport layer header
* @network_header: Network layer header
* @mac_header: Link layer header
* @tail: Tail pointer
* @end: End pointer
* @head: Head of buffer
* @data: Data head pointer
* @truesize: Buffer size
* @users: User count - see {datagram,tcp}.c
