NAME

sppp_input - receive and process a WAN PPP frame  

SYNOPSIS

void sppp_input (struct net_device * dev, struct sk_buff * skb);  

ARGUMENTS

dev
The device it arrived on
skb
The buffer to process
 

DESCRIPTION

This can be called directly by cards that do not have timing constraints but is normally called from the network layer after interrupt servicing to process frames queued via netif_rx.

We process the options in the card. If the frame is destined for the protocol stacks then it requeues the frame for the upper level protocol. If it is a control from it is processed and discarded here.
