05/10: [PATCH] Update truesize with the length of the packet for
packet split
These 10 patches look OK, but since the current kernel version is
2.6.17-rc1, that means we are in "bug fix only" mode right now.
Should I (a) apply these all to netdev2-.6.git#upstream, queueing them
for 2.6.18, or (b) let you split the submission into two parts, bug
fixes only and everything else?
It turns out that the truesize patch is pretty important as otherwise
most of TCP receive socket buffer accounting falls apart. So it should
probably go into 2.6.17 and even 2.6.16-stable.
I totally agree.
Jeff please try to get at least this skb->truesize fix queued
to both -stable and current 2.6.x, it's really needed and
important for proper socket memory accounting on receive with
e1000.
I agree, Jeff, please go ahead or let me know if you want me to submit this
separately.
Auke
