The ixgbe driver have page recycle scheme based around the RX-ring queue, where a RX page is shared between two packets. Based on the refcnt, the driver can determine if the RX-page is currently only used by a single packet, if so it can then directly refill/recycle the RX-slot by with the opposite "side" of the page. While this is a clever trick, it is hard to determine when this recycling is successful and when it fails. Adding a counter, which is available via ethtool --statistics as 'alloc_rx_page'. Which counts the number of times the recycle fails and the real page allocator is invoked. When interpreting the stats, do remember that every alloc will serve two packets. The counter is collected per rx_ring, but is summed and ethtool exported as 'alloc_rx_page'. It would be relevant to know what rx_ring that cannot keep up, but that can be exported later if someone experience a need for this.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. 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.
