For rq, we have three cases getting buffers from virtio core: 1. virtqueue_get_buf{,_ctx} 2. virtqueue_detach_unused_buf 3. callback for virtqueue_resize But in commit 295525e29a5b("virtio_net: merge dma operations when filling mergeable buffers"), I missed the dma unmap for the #3 case. That will leak some memory, because I did not release the pages referred by the unused buffers. If we do such script, we will make the system OOM. while true do ethtool -G ens4 rx 128 ethtool -G ens4 rx 256 free -m done Fixes: 295525e29a5b ("virtio_net: merge dma operations when filling mergeable buffers") Signed-off-by: Xuan Zhuo <xuanzhuo@linux.alibaba.com> Message-Id: <20231226094333.47740-1-xuanzhuo@linux.alibaba.com> Signed-off-by: Michael S.

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.
