mpls_xmit() needs to prepend the MPLS-labels to the packet. That implies one needs to make sure there is enough space for it in the headers. Calling skb_cow() implies however that one wants to change even the playload part of the packet (which is not true for MPLS). Thus, call skb_cow_head() instead, which is what other tunnelling protocols do. Running a server with this comm it entirely removed the calls to pskb_expand_head() from the callstack in mpls_xmit() thus having significant CPU-reduction, especially at peak times.

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 reStructuredText 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.
