In some cases, we hope to construct skb directly based on the existing
memory without copying data. In this case, the page will be placed
directly in the skb, and the linear space of skb is empty. But
unfortunately, many the network card does not support this operation.
For example Mellanox Technologies MT27710 Family [ConnectX-4 Lx] will
get the following error message:
mlx5_core 0000:3b:00.1 eth1: Error cqe on cqn 0x817, ci 0x8,

mlx5_core 0000:3b:00.1 eth1: ERR CQE on SQ: 0x1dbb
So a priv_flag is added here to indicate whether the network card
supports this feature.

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.
