RE: [PATCH net 2/3] net: enetc: refactor bulk flipping of RX buffers to separate function
From: Wei Fang
Date: Fri Apr 18 2025 - 03:44:27 EST
> This small snippet of code ensures that we do something with the array

> stack. In this case, we see if the other half of the page is reusable,
> and if so, we "turn around" the buffers, making them directly usable by

> We will need to perform this kind of buffer flipping from a new code
> path, i.e. from XDP_PASS. Currently, enetc_build_skb() does it there
> buffer by buffer, but in a subsequent change we will stop using
> enetc_build_skb() for XDP_PASS.
