sock: skb_copy_ubufs support for compound pages
Refine skb_copy_ubufs to support compound pages. With upcoming TCP zerocopy sendmsg, such fragments may appear. The existing code replaces each page one for one. Splitting each compound page into an independent number of regular pages can result in exceeding limit MAX_SKB_FRAGS if data is not exactly page aligned. Instead, fill all destination pages but the last to PAGE_SIZE. Split the existing alloc + copy loop into separate stages: 1. compute bytelength and minimum number of pages to store this. 2. allocate 3. copy, filling each page except the last to PAGE_SIZE bytes 4. update skb frag array Signed-off-by: Willem de Bruijn <willemb@google.com> Signed-off-by: David S.
