[RFC PATCH 0/3] net: Alloc NAPI page frags from their own pool

From: Alexander Duyck <hidden>
Date: 2014-11-27 00:06:03

This patch series implements a means of allocating page fragments without
the need for the local_irq_save/restore in __netdev_alloc_frag.  By doing
this I am able to decrease packet processing time by 11ns per packet in my
test environment.

Alexander Duyck (3):
      net: Split netdev_alloc_frag into __alloc_page_frag and add __napi_alloc_frag
      net: Pull out core bits of __netdev_alloc_skb and add __napi_alloc_skb
      fm10k/igb/ixgbe: Use napi_alloc_skb
