Linux kernel source tree

We are about to use page_frag_alloc_*() API to not just allocate memory for skb->data, but also use them to do the memory allocation for skb frag too. Currently the implementation of page_frag in mm subsystem is running the offset as a countdown rather than count-up value, there may have several advantages to that as mentioned in [1], but it may have some disadvantages, for example, it may disable skb frag coalescing and more correct cache prefetching We have a trade-off to make in order to have a unified implementation and API for page_frag, so use a initial zero offset in this patch, and the following patch will try to make some optimization to avoid the disadvantages as much as possible. 1. https://lore.kernel.org/all/f4abe71b3439b39d17a6fb2d410180f367cadf5c.camel@gmail.com/ CC: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> CC: Linux-MM <linux-mm@kvack.org> Signed-off-by: Yunsheng Lin <linyunsheng@huawei.com> Reviewed-by: Alexander Duyck <alexanderduyck@fb.com> Link: https://patch.msgid.link/20241028115343.3405838-4-linyunsheng@huawei.com Signed-off-by: Jakub Kicinski <kuba@kernel.org> |

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
