Subject: [PATCH V4 net-next] tun/macvtap: use consume_skb() instead of kfree_skb() when needed
Date: Mon,  1 Dec 2014 16:53:15 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1417423995-4765-1-git-send-email-jasowang@redhat.com> (raw)

To be more friendly with drop monitor, we should only call kfree_skb() when
the packets were dropped and use consume_skb() in other cases.

Cc: Eric Dumazet <eric.dumazet@gmail.com>
Signed-off-by: Jason Wang <jasowang@redhat.com>

Changes from V3:
- rebase to net-next.git
Changes from V2:
- use unlikely() when necessary
Changes from V1:
- check the return value of tun/macvtap_put_user()
