From 4fb669948116d928ae44262ab7743732c574630d Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jarek Poplawski Date: Sun, 1 Feb 2009 00:41:42 -0800 Subject: [PATCH] net: Optimize memory usage when splicing from sockets. The recent fix of data corruption when splicing from sockets uses memory very inefficiently allocating a new page to copy each chunk of linear part of skb. This patch uses the same page until it's full (almost) by caching the page in sk_sndmsg_page field. With changes from David S. Miller Signed-off-by: Jarek Poplawski Signed-off-by: David S.
