From: Jonathan Lemon <b...@fb.com> This is set of cleanup patches for zerocopy which are intended to allow a introduction of a different zerocopy implementation.
The top level api will use the skb_zcopy_*() functions, while the current TCP specific zerocopy would use the sock_zerocopy_*() calls. There should be no functional changes from these patches. Patch 1: Move zerocopy bits from tx_flags into zc_flags for clarity. These bits will be used in the RX path in the future. Patch 2: remove dead function Patch 3: Replace sock_zerocopy_put() with skb_zcopy_put(), moving the zerocopy logic into sock_zerocopy_callback(). Push the refcounting into the callback, since not all implemenetations will have a refcount. Patch 4: rename sock_zerocopy_get for consistency. Patch 5: Add an optional skb parameter to callback, allowing access to the attached skb from the callback. Patch 6: Add skb_zcopy_put_abort, and move zerocopy logic into the callback function. There unfortunately is still a check against the callback type here. Patch 7: Set the skb zc_flags from the ubuf being attached, instead of a fixed value, allowing different initialization types. Patch 8: Replace open-coded assignments Patch 9: Relocate skb_zcopy_clear() in skb_release_data() Jonathan Lemon (9): net: group skb_shinfo zerocopy related bits together. skbuff: remove unused skb_zcopy_abort function skbuff: replace sock_zerocopy_put() with skb_zcopy_put() skbuff: replace sock_zerocopy_get with skb_zcopy_get skbuff: Add skb parameter to the ubuf zerocopy callback skbuff: Call sock_zerocopy_put_abort from skb_zcopy_put_abort skbuff: add zc_flags to ubuf_info for ubuf setup tap/tun: use skb_zcopy_set() instead of open coded assignment skbuff: Call skb_zcopy_clear() before unref'ing fragments drivers/net/tap.c | 6 +-- drivers/net/tun.c | 6 +-- drivers/net/xen-netback/common.h | 3 +- drivers/net/xen-netback/interface.c | 4 +- drivers/net/xen-netback/netback.c | 7 +-- drivers/vhost/net.c | 4 +- include/linux/skbuff.h | 77 +++++++++++++++-------------- net/core/skbuff.c | 48 +++++++++--------- net/ipv4/ip_output.c | 3 +- net/ipv4/tcp.c | 6 +-- net/ipv6/ip6_output.c | 3 +- net/kcm/kcmsock.c | 4 +- 12 files changed, 85 insertions(+), 86 deletions(-) -- 2.24.1
