[SK_BUFF]: Introduce skb_copy_to_linear_data{_offset}

2007-04-26T05:28:29+00:00

To clearly state the intent of copying to linear sk_buffs, _offset being a
overly long variant but interesting for the sake of saving some bytes.

[SK_BUFF]: Convert skb->end to sk_buff_data_t

2007-04-26T05:26:29+00:00

Now to convert the last one, skb->data, that will allow many simplifications
and removal of some of the offset helpers.

[SK_BUFF]: Convert skb->tail to sk_buff_data_t

2007-04-26T05:26:28+00:00

So that it is also an offset from skb->head, reduces its size from 8 to 4 bytes
on 64bit architectures, allowing us to combine the 4 bytes hole left by the
layer headers conversion, reducing struct sk_buff size to 256 bytes, i.e. 4
64byte cachelines, and since the sk_buff slab cache is SLAB_HWCACHE_ALIGN...
:-)

Many calculations that previously required that skb->{transport,network,
mac}_header be first converted to a pointer now can be done directly, being
meaningful as offsets or pointers.

[SK_BUFF]: Introduce skb_reset_network_header(skb)

2007-04-26T05:24:46+00:00

For the common, open coded 'skb->nh.raw = skb->data' operation, so that we can
later turn skb->nh.raw into a offset, reducing the size of struct sk_buff in
64bit land while possibly keeping it as a pointer on 32bit.

This one touches just the most simple case, next will handle the slightly more
"complex" cases.

[SK_BUFF]: Introduce skb_set_mac_header()

2007-04-26T05:24:37+00:00

For the cases where we want to set skb->mac.raw to an offset from skb->data.

Simple cases first, the memmove ones and specially pktgen will be left for later.

[ETH]: Make eth_type_trans set skb->dev like the other *_type_trans

One less thing for drivers writers to worry about.
