Subject: [PATCH v2 5/8] vsock/virtio: Add vsock helper for linear SKB allocation
Date: Tue, 1 Jul 2025 17:45:04 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250701164507.14883-6-will@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20250701164507.14883-1-will@kernel.org>
In preparation for nonlinear allocations for large SKBs, introduce a
new virtio_vsock_alloc_linear_skb() helper to return linear SKBs
unconditionally and switch all callers over to this new interface for
now.
No functional change.
