[PATCH v2 1/1] ixgbe: sync the first fragment unconditionally

From: Firo Yang
Date: Tue Aug 06 2019 - 22:50:56 EST


In Xen environment, if Xen-swiotlb is enabled, ixgbe driver
could possibly allocate a page, DMA memory buffer, for the first
fragment which is not suitable for Xen-swiotlb to do DMA operations.
Xen-swiotlb have to internally allocate another page for doing DMA
operations. It requires syncing between those two pages. However,
since commit f3213d932173 ("ixgbe: Update driver to make use of DMA
attributes in Rx path"), the unmap operation is performed with
DMA_ATTR_SKIP_CPU_SYNC. As a result, the sync is not performed.

To fix this problem, always sync before possibly performing a page
unmap operation.

attributes in Rx path")
