 *                         ^
 *                   Pointer passed to function points here so that routine
 *                   can make use of extra_frame bytes before pointer
 *                   to prepend headers, etc.
 *
 *    extra_frame bytes is large enough for all encryption related overhead.
 *
 *    mtu bytes will be the MTU size set in the ifconfig statement that configures
 *      the TUN or TAP device such as:
 *
 *      ifconfig $1 10.1.0.2 pointopoint 10.1.0.1 mtu 1450
 *
 *    Compression overflow bytes is the worst-case size expansion that would be
 *    expected if we tried to compress mtu + extra_frame bytes of uncompressible data.
