From: Ilias Apalodimas <ilias.apalodimas@linaro.org> During skb_release_data() intercept the packet and if it's a buffer coming from our page_pool API recycle it back to the pool for further usage. To achieve that we introduce a bit in struct sk_buff (pp_recycle:1) and store the xdp_mem_info in page->private. The SKB bit is needed since page->private is used by skb_copy_ubufs, so we can't rely solely on page->private to trigger recycling. The driver has to take care of the sync operations on it's own during the buffer recycling since the buffer is never unmapped. In order to enable recycling the driver must call skb_mark_for_recycle() to store the information we need for recycling in page->private and enabling the recycling bit Storing the information in page->private allows us to recycle both SKBs and their fragments Signed-off-by: Ilias Apalodimas <ilias.apalodimas@linaro.org> Signed-off-by: Jesper Dangaard Brouer <redacted> Signed-off-by: Matteo Croce <redacted> ---
Hi, the patch title really should be: page_pool: DMA handling and frame recycling via SKBs As in the previous RFC. Sorry, -- per aspera ad upstream
