David S. Miller 309c446cb4 Merge branch 'tcp-zero-copy-receive'
Eric Dumazet says:

====================
tcp: add zero copy receive

This patch series add mmap() support to TCP sockets for RX zero copy.

While tcp_mmap() patch itself is quite small (~100 LOC), optimal support
for asynchronous mmap() required better SO_RCVLOWAT behavior, and a
test program to demonstrate how mmap() on TCP sockets can be used.

Note that mmap() (and associated munmap()) calls are adding more
pressure on per-process VM semaphore, so might not show benefit
for processus with high number of threads.

README

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

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

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.
