[PATCH 4.9 24/51] net/mlx5e: Do not recycle pages from emergency reserve

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



4.9-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@xxxxxxxxxx>


[ Upstream commit e048fc50d7bde23136e098e04a324d7e3404408d ]

A driver using dev_alloc_page() must not reuse a page allocated from
emergency memory reserve.

Otherwise all packets using this page will be immediately dropped,
unless for very specific sockets having SOCK_MEMALLOC bit set.

This issue might be hard to debug, because only a fraction of received
packets would be dropped.
