When the length of the packet is below the defined copybreak limit, the received packet is copied into a newly allocated skb in order to reuse the skb. This is only interesting if it allow us to avoid a new DMA mapping. We shall therefore not DMA unmap and remap the skb->data. Instead, we invalidate the cache with dma_sync_single_for_cpu() once the received data has been copied into the new skb. The following measures have been obtained on a mpc885 running at 132Mhz. Measurement is done using the timebase with packets sent to the target with 'ping -s 1' (packet len is 60): * Without this patch: 182 TB ticks * With this patch: 143 TB ticks As a comparison, if we set the copybreak limit to 0, then we get 148 TB ticks. It means that without this patch, duration is even worse when copying received data to a new skb instead of allocating a new skb for next packet to be received Signed-off-by: Christophe Leroy <christophe.leroy@c-s.fr> Signed-off-by: David S.
