PATCH v3 1/1 net: Unmap fragment page once iterator is done

Callers of skb_seq_read() are currently forced to call skb_abort_seq_read() even when consuming all the data because the last call to skb_seq_read (the one that returns 0 to indicate the end) fails to unmap the last fragment page.

With this patch callers will be allowed to traverse the SKB data by calling skb_prepare_seq_read() once and repeatedly calling skb_seq_read() as originally intended (and documented in the original commit 677e90eda - "[NET]: Zerocopy sequential reading of skb data"), that is, only call skb_abort_seq_read() if the sequential read is actually aborted.

This patch doesn't even come close to applying to the net-next tree, please respin this patch properly and resubmit.

Thanks.

David, would you mind clarifying where I can find net-next? The only one I could find was the one I mention above and it already has my patch in it (though with the previous comment).

Thanks

Yes that is where my net-next tree is, as clearly stated the "NETWORKING [GENERAL]" sercion of the MAINTAINERS file.

Ok, thanks for the info, now I know where the definitive answer is.

Anyway, why are you asking me to respin this patch? If I do it based on this tree, there will be no changes in it.
