Subject: [PATCH 3/7] skb_reduce_truesize: helper function for shrinking skbs
|
|
whenever needed
|
|
|
|
On embedded devices in particular, large queues of small packets from the rx
|
|
path with a large truesize can exist. Reducing their size can reduce
|
|
memory pressure. skb_reduce_truesize is a helper function for doing this,
|
|
when needed.
