[PATCH 23/30] netvm: skb processing

Peter Zijlstra
2008-03-20T20:23:49Z

[-- Attachment #1: netvm.patch --]
[-- Type: text/plain, Size: 4753 bytes --]

In order to make sure emergency packets receive all memory needed to proceed
ensure processing of emergency SKBs happens under PF_MEMALLOC.

Use the (new) sk_backlog_rcv() wrapper to ensure this for backlog processing.

Skip taps, since those are user-space again.
