Hi, Jason

Could you skip this patch?

I'm fine with either merging or dropping this.

Let we review other patches firstly?

I will be on vacation soon, and won't have time to do this until next week.

Have a happly vacation.

But I spot two possible "issues":

1) the DMA metadata were stored in the headroom of the page, this
breaks frags coalescing, we need to benchmark it's impact

Not every page, just the first page of the COMP pages.

So I think there is no impact.

Nope, see this:

        if (SKB_FRAG_PAGE_ORDER &&
            !static_branch_unlikely(&net_high_order_alloc_disable_key)) {
                /* Avoid direct reclaim but allow kswapd to wake */
                pfrag->page = alloc_pages((gfp & ~__GFP_DIRECT_RECLAIM) |
                                          __GFP_COMP | __GFP_NOWARN |
                                          __GFP_NORETRY,
                                          SKB_FRAG_PAGE_ORDER);
                if (likely(pfrag->page)) {
                        pfrag->size = PAGE_SIZE << SKB_FRAG_PAGE_ORDER;
                        return true;
                }
        }

The comp page might be disabled due to the SKB_FRAG_PAGE_ORDER and
net_high_order_alloc_disable_key.

YES.

But if comp page is disabled. Then we only get one page each time. The pages are
not contiguous, so we don't have frags coalescing.

If you mean the two pages got from alloc_page may be contiguous. The coalescing
may then be broken. It's a possibility, but I think the impact will be small.

Let's have a simple benchmark and see?

That is ok.

I think you want to know the perf num with big traffic and the comp page
disabled.

Yes.

Thanks

Thanks.

2) pre mapped DMA addresses were not reused in the case of XDP_TX/XDP_REDIRECT

Because that the tx is not the premapped mode.

Yes, we can optimize this on top.

I see Michael has merge this series so I'm fine to let it go first.
