Subject: [PATCH v2 net 0/2] net: remove the single page frag cache for good
Date: Tue, 18 Feb 2025 19:29:38 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <cover.1739899357.git.pabeni@redhat.com> (raw)

This is another attempt at reverting commit dbae2b062824 ("net: skb:
introduce and use a single page frag cache"), as it causes regressions
in specific use-cases.

Reverting such commit uncovers an allocation issue for build with 
CONFIG_MAX_SKB_FRAGS=45, as reported by Sabrina.

This series handle the latter in patch 1 and brings the revert in patch
2.

Note that there is a little chicken-egg problem, as I included into the
patch 1's changelog the splat that would be visible only applying first
the revert: I think current patch order is better for bisectability,
still the splat is useful for correct attribution.

Paolo Abeni (2):
  net: allow small head cache usage with large MAX_SKB_FRAGS values
