Currently page pool only support page recycling when there is only one user of the page, and the split page reusing implemented in the most driver can not use the page pool as bing-pong way of reusing requires the multi user support in page pool. Those reusing or recycling has below limitations: 1. page from page pool can only be used be one user in order for the page recycling to happen. 2. Bing-pong way of reusing in most driver does not support multi desc using different part of the same page in order to save memory. So add multi-users support and frag page recycling in page pool to overcome the above limitation. Signed-off-by: Yunsheng Lin <linyunsheng@huawei.com> Signed-off-by: Jakub Kicinski <kuba@kernel.org>
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.
