This reduces vulnerability surface thanks to better skb->truesize tracking and provides better performance in most cases. (33 Gbit for one TCP flow on my lab hosts) I will provide for linux-4.13 a patch on top of this series, trying to improve data locality as described in https://www.spinics.net/lists/netdev/msg422258.html v2 provides an ethtool -S new counter (rx_alloc_pages) and code factorization, plus Tariq fix. v3 includes various fixes based on Tariq tests and feedback from Saeed and Tariq. v4 rebased on net-next for inclusion in linux-4.12, as requested by Tariq. Worth noting this patch series deletes ~250 lines of code ;) ==================== Signed-off-by: David S. Miller --- 3f2aa566d4c991988d6acec98a0e1978e915f43b
