      netvm: propagate page->pfmemalloc from skb_alloc_page to skb · 0614002b
      Mel Gorman 提交于
      The skb->pfmemalloc flag gets set to true iff during the slab allocation
      of data in __alloc_skb that the the PFMEMALLOC reserves were used.  If
      page splitting is used, it is possible that pages will be allocated from
      the PFMEMALLOC reserve without propagating this information to the skb.
      This patch propagates page->pfmemalloc from pages allocated for fragments
      to the skb.
      
      It works by reintroducing and expanding the skb_alloc_page() API to take
      an skb.  If the page was allocated from pfmemalloc reserves, it is
      automatically copied.  If the driver allocates the page before the skb, it
      should call skb_propagate_pfmemalloc() after the skb is allocated to
      ensure the flag is copied properly.
      
      Failure to do so is not critical.  The resulting driver may perform slower
      if it is used for swap-over-NBD or swap-over-NFS but it should not result
      in failure.

      rename dev_hw_addr_random and remove redundant second · 1a0d6ae5
      Danny Kukawka 提交于
      Renamed dev_hw_addr_random to eth_hw_addr_random() to reflect that
      this function only assign a random ethernet address (MAC). Removed
      the second parameter (u8 *hwaddr), it's redundant since the also
      given net_device already contains net_device->dev_addr.
      Set it directly.
      
      Adapt igbvf and ixgbevf to the changed function.
      
      Small fix for ixgbevf_probe(): if ixgbevf_sw_init() fails
      (which means the device got no dev_addr) handle the error and
      jump to err_sw_init as already done by igbvf in similar case.

      net: remove netdev_alloc_page and use __GFP_COLD · 1f2149c1
      Eric Dumazet 提交于
      Given we dont use anymore the struct net_device *dev argument, and this
      interface brings litle benefit, remove netdev_{alloc|free}_page(), to
      debloat include/linux/skbuff.h a bit.
      
      (Some drivers used a mix of these interfaces and alloc_pages())
      
      When allocating a page given to device for DMA transfer (device to
      memory), it makes sense to use a cold one (__GFP_COLD)
