Alexander Duyck says: ==================== Address recent issues found in netdev page_frag_alloc usage This patch set addresses a couple of issues that I had pointed out to Jann Horn in response to a recent patch submission. The first issue is that I wanted to avoid the need to read/modify/write the size value in order to generate the value for pagecnt_bias. Instead we can just use a fixed constant which reduces the need for memory read operations and the overall number of instructions to update the pagecnt bias values. The other, and more important issue is, that apparently we were letting tun access the napi_alloc_cache indirectly through netdev_alloc_frag and as a result letting it create unaligned accesses via unaligned allocations. In order to prevent this I have added a call to SKB_DATA_ALIGN for the fragsz field so that we will keep the offset in the napi_alloc_cache SMP_CACHE_BYTES aligned. ==================== Signed-off-by: David S.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
