Patch series "Add support for DMA writable pages being writable by the network stack", v3. The first 19 patches in the set add support for the DMA attribute DMA_ATTR_SKIP_CPU_SYNC on multiple platforms/architectures. This is needed so that we can flag the calls to dma_map/unmap_page so that we do not invalidate cache lines that do not currently belong to the device. Instead we have to take care of this in the driver via a call to sync_single_range_for_cpu prior to freeing the Rx page. Patch 20 adds support for dma_map_page_attrs and dma_unmap_page_attrs so that we can unmap and map a page using the DMA_ATTR_SKIP_CPU_SYNC attribute. Patch 21 adds support for freeing a page that has multiple references being held by a single caller. This way we can free page fragments that were allocated by a given driver. The last 2 patches use these updates in the igb driver, and lay the groundwork to allow for us to reimplement the use of build_skb. This patch (of 23): This change allows us to pass DMA_ATTR_SKIP_CPU_SYNC which allows us to avoid invoking cache line invalidation if the driver will just handle it later via a sync_for_cpu or sync_for_device call.

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.
