First we do some renames so that things are much more consistent. First we move the page_frag_ portion of the name to the front of the functions names. Secondly we split out the cache specific functions from the other page fragment functions by adding the word "cache" to the name. Second I did some minor clean-up on the function calls so that they are more inline with the existing __free_pages calls in terms of how they operate. Finally I added a bit of documentation that will hopefully help to explain some of this. I plan to revisit this later as we get things more ironed out in the near future with the changes planned for the DMA setup to support eXpress Data Path. --- v2: Fixed a comparison between a void* and 0 due to copy/paste from free_pages I'm listing this as a patch for net or mm since I had originally submitted it against mm as that was where the patches for the __page_frag functions has previously resided. However they are now also in net, and I wanted to get this fixed before the merge window closed as I was hoping to make use of these APIs in net-next and I already have about 20 patches that are waiting on these patches to be accepted. I tried to get in touch with Andrew about this fix but I haven't heard any reply to the email I sent out on Tuesday. The last comment I had from Andrew against v1 was "Looks good to me. I have it all queued for post-4.9 processing.", but I haven't received any notice they were applied.

Specifically we place the name page_frag first in the name and then have either an alloc or free call name that we append as the suffix. This makes it a bit clearer in terms of naming. In addition we drop the leading double underscores since we are technically no longer a backing interface and instead the front end that is called from the networking APIs. The last bit I changed is I rebased page_frag_free to actually function very similar to the function free_pages, the only real difference now is the fact that we have to get the page order by calling compound page instead of having it passed as a part of the function call.

Multiple +fragments within that page are individually refcounted, in the page's +reference counter. + +The page_frag functions, page_frag_alloc and page_frag_free, provide a +simple allocation framework for page fragments. This is used by the +network stack and network device drivers to provide a backing region of +memory for use as either an sk_buff->head, or to be used in the "frags" +portion of skb_shared_info. + +In order to make use of the page fragment APIs a backing page fragment +cache is needed. This provides a central point for the fragment allocation +and tracks allows multiple calls to make use of a cached page. The +advantage to doing this is that multiple calls to get_page can be avoided +which can be expensive at allocation time. However due to the nature of +this caching it is required that any calls to the cache be protected by +either a per-cpu limitation, or a per-cpu limitation and forcing interrupts +to be disabled when executing the fragment allocation. + +The network stack uses two separate caches per CPU to handle fragment +allocation. The netdev_alloc_cache is used by callers making use of the +__netdev_alloc_frag and __netdev_alloc_skb calls. The napi_alloc_cache is +used by callers of the __napi_alloc_frag and __napi_alloc_skb calls. The +main difference between these two calls is the context in which they may be +called. The "netdev" prefixed functions are usable in any context as these +functions will disable interrupts, while the "napi" prefixed functions are +only usable within the softirq context. + +Many network device drivers use a similar methodology for allocating page +fragments, but the page fragments are cached at the ring or descriptor +level. In order to enable these cases it is necessary to provide a generic +way of tearing down a page cache. For this reason __page_frag_cache_drain +was implemented. It allows for freeing multiple references from a single +page via a single call. The advantage to doing this is that it allows for +cleaning up the multiple references that were added to a page in order to +avoid calling get_page per allocation. + +Alexander Duyck, Nov 29, 2016. -- To unsubscribe, send a message with 'unsubscribe linux-mm' in the body to majordomo@kvack.org.

I'm assuming Andrew is probably out for the holidays since I didn't hear anything, and since Linux pushed 4.10-rc1 I'm assuming I have missed the merge window. Dave, I was wondering if you would be okay with me trying to push the three patches though net-next. I'm thinking I might scale back the first patch so that it is just a rename instead of making any functional changes. The main reason why I am thinking of trying to submit through net-next is because then I can then start working on submitting the driver patches for net-next. Otherwise I'm looking at this set creating a merge mess since I don't see a good way to push the driver changes without already having these changes present. I'll wait until Andrew can weigh in on the patches before resubmitting. My thought was to get an Acked-by from him and then see if I can get them accepted into net-next. That way there isn't any funky cross-tree merging that will need to go on, and it shouldn't really impact the mm tree all that much as the only consumers for the page frag code are the network stack anyway.
