Date: Thu, 27 Oct 2011 15:53:38 -0400 From: Neil Horman <nhorman@...driver.com> To: netdev@...r.kernel.org Cc: Neil Horman <nhorman@...ev.think-freely.org>, Neil Horman <nhorman@...driver.com>, "David S. Miller" <davem@...emloft.net> Subject: [RFC PATCH 2/5] net: add FCLONE_SCRATCH use to ipv4 udp path From: Neil Horman <nhorman@...ev.think-freely.org> UDP v4 multicast in a multiple group listener workload is a heavy user of skb_clone, which can lead to performance problems if memory is constrained and frame reception rates are high. Once in the udp path however, we can reserve the unused storage of the udp datagram and allocate skbs from it quickly. Modify the udp multicast receive path to reserve storage using the FCLONE_SCRATCH api to make opportunistic use of this space.
