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.
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.

The batadv net_device is trying to propagate the needed_headroom and needed_tailroom from the lower devices. This is needed to avoid cost intensive reallocations using pskb_expand_head during the transmission. But the fragmentation code split the skb's without adding extra room at the end/beginning of the various fragments. This reduced the performance of transmissions over complex scenarios (batadv on vxlan on wireguard) because the lower devices had to perform the reallocations at least once.
