Hi Amena,
I don't remember the exact details for the copy, but it may have been
related to:
- the input/output pbufs are sometimes allocated from different sources
- it's possible the output pbuf needs to be buffered (e.g. if neighbor
discovery is required before the response)
- I believe there could be different IPv6 option headers in req and resp
and bring alignment issues
I know I tested no-copy at the time it was developed and run into some
problem. Hope this gives you a hint if you're investigating.
Regards,
Ivan

Hi,
When we receive an echo request using IPv6, LwIP copies the request to
new
pbuf to send the reply.
Why LwIP doesn't use the echo request pbuf, instead of allocating a new
one
(as what LwIP does when replying to IPv4 echo requests)?
Thanks in advance.
