Subject: [PATCH 1/2] net: Stop decapitating clones that have a head_frag
Date: Wed, 02 May 2012 20:38:56 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20120503033856.5482.70122.stgit@gitlad.jf.intel.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20120503033018.5482.89902.stgit@gitlad.jf.intel.com>

This change is meant ot prevent stealing the skb->head to use as a page in
the event that the skb->head was cloned.  This allows the other clones to
track each other via shinfo->dataref.

Without this we break down to two methods for tracking the reference count,
one being dataref, the other being the page count.  As a result it becomes
difficult to track how many references there are to skb->head.
