NAME

       skb_padto - pad an skbuff up to a minimal size

SYNOPSIS

       int skb_padto(struct sk_buff * skb, unsigned int len);

ARGUMENTS

       skb
	   buffer to pad

       len
	   minimal length

DESCRIPTION

       Pads up a buffer to ensure the trailing bytes exist and are blanked. If the buffer already contains sufficient data it is untouched.
       Otherwise it is extended. Returns zero on success. The skb is freed on error.
