From a58c891a53aca81c78f9cbe0572a301042470e96 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Eric Dumazet Date: Thu, 15 Jan 2009 15:29:35 -0800 Subject: [PATCH] b44: GFP_DMA skb should not escape from driver b44 chip has some hardware limitations, that need GFP_DMA bounce buffers in some situations. In order to not deplete DMA zone, we should keep allocated GFP_DMA skb only for driver use. At rx time, we copy such skb to newly allocated skb, reusing existing copybreak infrastructure. On machines with low amount of memory, all skb meet the hardware limitation, so no copy is needed. We detect this situation using a new device flag, set to one if one GFP_DMA skb was ever allocated by b44_alloc_rx_skb(). Previously allocated skb, even outside from DMA zone will then be recycled, to have minimal impact on DMA zone use. Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet Tested-by: Ionut Leonte Signed-off-by: David S.
