net: mvpp2: fix dma unmapping of TX buffers for fragments
Since commit 71ce391dfb784 ("net: mvpp2: enable proper per-CPU TX buffers unmapping"), we are not correctly DMA unmapping TX buffers for fragments. Indeed, the mvpp2_txq_inc_put() function only stores in the txq_cpu->tx_buffs[] array the physical address of the buffer to be DMA-unmapped when skb != NULL. In addition, when DMA-unmapping, we use skb_headlen(skb) to get the size to be unmapped. Both of this works fine for TX descriptors that are associated directly to a SKB, but not the ones that are used for fragments, with a NULL pointer as skb: - We have a NULL physical address when calling DMA unmap - skb_headlen(skb) crashes because skb is NULL This causes random crashes when fragments are used. To solve this problem, we need to: - Store the physical address of the buffer to be unmapped unconditionally, regardless of whether it is tied to a SKB or not. - Store the length of the buffer to be unmapped, which requires a new field. Instead of adding a third array to store the length of the buffer to be unmapped, and as suggested by David Miller, this commit refactors the tx_buffs[] and tx_skb[] arrays of 'struct mvpp2_txq_pcpu' into a separate structure 'mvpp2_txq_pcpu_buf', to which a 'size' field is added. Therefore, instead of having three arrays to allocate/free, we have a single one, which also improve data locality, reducing the impact on the CPU cache.
