How when you are hardcoding io uring memory registrations instead of making them a generic dmabuf? Which btw would also really help with pre-registering the memry with the iommu to get good performance in IOMMU-enabled setups.

Fix Fix fence merge handling

by Christian König

Hi guys, turned out that userspace can also merge dma_fence_chain contains which can result in really huge arrays. Fix those merges to sort the arrays and remove the duplicates. Additional to that start to use kvzalloc() for dma_fence_array containers so that can handle much larger arrays if necessary. Please review and comment, Christian.

All the net_iov setup code is in the page pool > core code. What it does, however, is implementing the user API, so That's not what this series does. It adds the new memory_provider_ops set of hooks, with once implementation for dmabufs, and one for io_uring zero copy. So you are precluding zero copy RX into anything but your magic io_uring buffers, and using an odd abstraction for that. The right way would be to support zero copy RX into every designated dmabuf, and make io_uring work with udmabuf or if absolutely needed it's own kind of dmabuf. Instead we create a maze of incompatible abstractions here. The use case of e.g. doing zero copy receive into a NVMe CMB using PCIe P2P transactions is every but made up, so this does create a problem.

[PATCH] Documentation: dma-buf: heaps: Add heap name definitions

by Maxime Ripard

Following a recent discussion at last Plumbers, John Stultz, Sumit Sewal, TJ Mercier and I came to an agreement that we should document what the dma-buf heaps names are expected to be, and what the buffers attributes you'll get should be documented. Let's create that doc to make sure those attributes and names are guaranteed going forward.

Instead of reinventing your own memory provider please enhance dmabufs for your use case. We don't really need to build memory buffer abstraction over memory buffer abstraction.

It's basically the same as the DRM subsystem rules. https://docs.kernel.org/gpu/drm-uapi.html#open-source-userspace-requirements ie: There has to be opensource user for it, and the user has to be more significant than a "toy" implementation (which can be a bit subjective and contentious when trying to get out of a chicken and egg loop). thanks -john
