From 773ba4fe9104a64a54d1c00f0fb6ffb95def2b03 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Pavel Begunkov Date: Tue, 12 Jul 2022 21:52:26 +0100 Subject: ipv6: avoid partial copy for zc Even when zerocopy transmission is requested and possible, __ip_append_data() will still copy a small chunk of data just because it allocated some extra linear space (e.g. 128 bytes). It wastes CPU cycles on copy and iter manipulations and also misalignes potentially aligned data. Avoid such copies. And as a bonus we can allocate smaller skb.
