In the xdp implementation of virtio-net mergeable, it always checks whether two page is used and a page is selected to release. This is complicated for the processing of action, and be careful. In the entire process, we have such principles: * If xdp_page is used (PASS, TX, Redirect), then we release the old page. * If it is a drop case, we will release two. The old page obtained from buf is release inside err_xdp, and xdp_page needs be relased by us. But in fact, when we allocate a new page, we can release the old page immediately. Then just one is using, we just need to release the new page for drop case. On the drop path, err_xdp will release the variable "page", so we only need to let "page" point to the new xdp_page in advance.

Linux kernel ============ There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
