    slip: Check if rstate is initialized before uncompressing · 3f01ddb9
    Tejaswi Tanikella authored
    On receiving a packet the state index points to the rstate which must be
    used to fill up IP and TCP headers. But if the state index points to a
    rstate which is unitialized, i.e. filled with zeros, it gets stuck in an
    infinite loop inside ip_fast_csum trying to compute the ip checsum of a
    header with zero length.

    Adding a variable to indicate if the current rstate is initialized. If
    such a packet arrives, move to toss state.
