I want to know full flow of how snort processes a packet?

I know how to configure and run snort with dynamic rules written.

I know some stages of processing like decoding, preprocessors, dynamic rules match, output plugins etc.

I am using snort as inline mode. I want to know full flow of processing from packet comes to snort and to packet is delivered to application.

Can any one suggest me a link like its complete flow description?

Thanks
