Subject: [RFC: DMA_PMD 12/22] net/core: Use per-CPU DMA_PMD pools for skb_page_frag_refill()
Date: Sat,  3 Oct 2026 21:22:31 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20261003212241.3432303-13-lrizzo@google.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20261003212241.3432303-1-lrizzo@google.com>

Add sysctl net.core.tx_enable_dma_pmd to back skb_page_frag_refill() with
per-CPU order-3 (32KB block) and order-0 (4KB block) DMA_PMD page pools.

When enabled, TX socket buffer page fragment allocations draw fragments
from DMA_PMD physical pages registered with per-CPU dma_pmd_pool. The
first allocation maps the entire DMA_PMD page, subsequent allocations
reuse the cached PMD_SIZE IOVA mapping locklessly without per-packet unmap
or IOTLB flush.
