[Linuxarm] Re: [PATCH rfc v4 1/4] page_pool: keep pp info as long as page pool owns the page

On Tue, Jul 13, 2021 at 05:24:29PM +0800, Yunsheng Lin wrote:

Currently, page->pp is cleared and set everytime the page is recycled, which is unnecessary.

So only set the page->pp when the page is added to the page pool and only clear it when the page is released from the page pool.

This is also a preparation to support allocating frag page in page pool.

That's useful overall regardless of the frag allocation patchset.

The reason I avoided doing this in the original patchset was cases were an XDP buffer gets coverted to an SKB (e.g XDP_PASS or REDIRECT). Now that being said I can't think of any case, were marking the page page_pool allocates with that special signature by default, will cause failures. Even if we convert it to an SKB, the packet will eventually be recycled once the processing is over (assuming someone marks the skb for it). If anyone can think of any case I missed please shout.
