Julian Wiedmann dc5367bcc5 net/af_iucv: don't use paged skbs for TX on HiperSockets With commit `e53743994e` ("af_iucv: use paged SKBs for big outbound messages"), we transmit paged skbs for both of AF_IUCV's transport modes (IUCV or HiperSockets). The qeth driver for Layer 3 HiperSockets currently doesn't support NETIF_F_SG, so these skbs would just be linearized again by the stack. Avoid that overhead by using paged skbs only for IUCV transport. cc stable, since this also circumvents a significant skb leak when sending large messages (where the skb then needs to be linearized).

README

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
