skbuff_head_cache is misnamed (perhaps for historical reasons?) because it does not hold heads. Head is the buffer which skb->data points to, and also where shinfo lives. struct sk_buff is a metadata structure, not the head. Eric recently added skb_small_head_cache (which allocates actual head buffers), let that serve as an excuse to finally clean this up :) Leave the user-space visible name intact, it could possibly be uAPI.

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.
