Hello,

I'm currently playing with the 6lowpan code and was wondering if the 
fragmentation support is supposed to be operational. The reason I ask is 
because when my packets grow too big (when fragmentation should kick 
in), my communications stop working.
I sniffed the traffic with Wireshark, and found out the first fragment 
(FRAG1) is always 25 bytes long and does not contain any payload. A 
quick look at the code seems to confirm that the first fragment carries 
no payload (see lowpan_skb_fragmentation()). I fail to see where RFC 
4944 indicates that the first fragment should be empty (and I fail to 
see what would be the benefit of this behavior anyway). So, is that the 
intended behavior? Did I miss something?

Either way, I'll look more into it, maybe this is only specific to my 
system (I ported the serial driver and applied some patches to it, so 
the packets might be mangled somewhere else).

Thank you in advance.

Regards,
Tony
