Merge branch 'netdev_page_frags'
Alexander Duyck says:
====================
Refactor netdev page frags and move them into mm/
This patch series addresses several things.
First I found an issue in the performance of the pfmemalloc check from
build_skb. To work around it I have provided a cached copy of pfmemalloc
to be used in __netdev_alloc_skb and __napi_alloc_skb.
Second I moved the page fragment allocation logic into the mm tree and
added functionality for freeing page fragments. I had to fix igb before I
could do this as it was using a reference to NETDEV_FRAG_PAGE_MAX_SIZE
incorrectly.
Finally I went through and replaced all of the duplicate code that was
calling put_page and replaced it with calls to skb_free_frag.
With these changes in place a simple receive and drop test increased from a
packet rate of 8.9Mpps to 9.8Mpps. The gains breakdown as follows:
8.9Mpps Before 9.8Mpps After
------------------------ ------------------------
7.8% put_compound_page 9.1% __free_page_frag
3.9% skb_free_head
1.1% put_page
4.9% build_skb 3.8% __napi_alloc_skb
2.5% __alloc_rx_skb
1.9% __napi_alloc_skb
