Linux kernel source tree
907676b130
when the packet or frag size is small, it causes both security and performance issue. As dma can't map sub-page, this means some extra kernel data is visible to devices. On the other hand, the overhead of dma map and unmap is huge when IOMMU is on. So add a queue based tx shared bounce buffer to memcpy the small packet when the len of the xmitted skb is below tx_copybreak. Add tx_spare_buf_size module param to set the size of tx spare buffer, and add set/get_tunable to set or query the tx_copybreak. The throughtput improves from 30 Gbps to 90+ Gbps when running 16 netperf threads with 32KB UDP message size when IOMMU is in the strict mode(tx_copybreak = 2000 and mtu = 1500).

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 Restructured Text 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.
