This iteration addresses Pavel's review comments, applies his
reviewed-by's, and seeks to fix the patchwork build error (sorry!).
As usual, the full devmem TCP changes including the full GVE driver
implementation is here:

v12: https://patchwork.kernel.org/project/netdevbpf/list/?series=859747&state=*
Major changes:
--
This iteration only addresses one minor comment from Pavel with regards
to the trace printing of netmem, and the patchwork build error
introduced in v11 because I missed doing an allmodconfig build, sorry.
Other than that v11, AFAICT, received no feedback. There is one
discussion about how the specifics of plugging io uring memory through
the page pool, but not relevant to content in this particular patchset,
AFAICT.

v11: https://patchwork.kernel.org/project/netdevbpf/list/?series=857457&state=*
Major Changes:

v11 addresses feedback received in v10. The major change is the removal
of the memory provider ops as requested by Christoph. We still
accomplish the same thing, but utilizing direct function calls with if
statements rather than generic ops.
Additionally address sparse warnings, bugs and review comments from
folks that reviewed.

Detailed changelog:
---
- Fixes in netdev_rx_queue_restart() from Pavel & David.
- Remove commit e650e8c3a36f5 ("net: page_pool: create hooks for
custom page providers") from the series to address Christoph's
feedback and rebased other patches on the series on this change.
- Fixed build errors with CONFIG_DMA_SHARED_BUFFER &&
!CONFIG_GENERIC_ALLOCATOR build.
- Fixed sparse warnings pointed out by Paolo.
- Drop unnecessary gro_pull_from_frag0 checks.
- Added Bagas reviewed-by to docs.

Major Changes:

v9 was sent right before the merge window closed (sorry!). v10 is almost
a re-send of the series now that the merge window re-opened. Only
rebased to latest net-next and addressed some minor iterative comments
received on v9.
As usual, the full devmem TCP changes including the full GVE driver
implementation is here:
https://github.com/mina/linux/commits/tcpdevmem-v10/
Detailed changelog:
---
- Fixed tokens leaking in DONTNEED setsockopt (Nikolay).
- Moved net_iov_dma_addr() to devmem.c and made it a devmem specific
helpers (David).
- Rename hook alloc_pages to alloc_netmems as alloc_pages is now
preprocessor macro defined and causes a build error.
v9:
===
Major Changes:
--
GVE queue API has been merged. Submitting this version as non-RFC after
rebasing on top of the merged API, and dropped the out of tree queue API
I was carrying on github. Addressed the little feedback v8 has received.
Detailed changelog:
--
- Added new patch from David Wei to this series for
netdev_rx_queue_restart()
- Fixed sparse error.
- Removed CONFIG_ checks in netmem_is_net_iov()
- Flipped skb->readable to skb->unreadable
- Minor fixes to selftests & docs.
RFC v8:
===
Major Changes:
--
- Fixed build error generated by patch-by-patch build.
- Applied docs suggestions from Randy.
RFC v7:
===
Major Changes:
--
This revision largely rebases on top of net-next and addresses the feedback
RFCv6 received from folks, namely Jakub, Yunsheng, Arnd, David, & Pavel.
The series remains in RFC because the queue-API ndos defined in this
series are not yet implemented. I have a GVE implementation I carry out
of tree for my testing. A upstreamable GVE implementation is in the
works. Aside from that, in my estimation all the patches are ready for
review/merge. Please do take a look.
As usual the full devmem TCP changes including the full GVE driver
implementation is here:
https://github.com/mina/linux/commits/tcpdevmem-v7/
Detailed changelog:
- Use admin-perm in netlink API.
- Addressed feedback from Jakub with regards to netlink API
implementation.
- Renamed devmem.c functions to something more appropriate for that
file.
- Improve the performance seen through the page_pool benchmark.
- Fix the value definition of all the SO_DEVMEM_* uapi.
- Various fixes to documentation.
Perf - page-pool benchmark:
