[PATCH v2 net] octeontx2-pf: fix page_pool creation fail for rings > 32k

From: Ratheesh Kannoth
Date: Tue Aug 22 2023 - 22:54:11 EST


octeontx2 driver calls page_pool_create() during driver probe()
and fails if queue size > 32k. Page pool infra uses these buffers
as shock absorbers for burst traffic. These pages are pinned down
over time as working sets varies, due to the recycling nature
of page pool, given page pool (currently) don't have a shrinker
mechanism, the pages remain pinned down in ptr_ring.
Instead of clamping page_pool size to 32k at
most, limit it even more to 2k to avoid wasting memory.

This have been tested on octeontx2 CN10KA hardware.
TCP and UDP tests using iperf shows no performance regressions.
