Subject: [patch 05/20] ibmveth: Add rx_copybreak
Date: Mon, 23 Aug 2010 10:09:35 +1000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20100823001238.751613683@samba.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: 20100823000930.546065833@samba.org

[-- Attachment #1: veth_rx_copybreak --]
[-- Type: text/plain, Size: 2171 bytes --]

For small packets, create a new skb and copy the packet into it so we
avoid tearing down and creating a TCE entry.
