net: add get_netmem/put_netmem support
Currently net_iovs support only pp ref counts, and do not support a page ref equivalent. This is fine for the RX path as net_iovs are used exclusively with the pp and only pp refcounting is needed there. The TX path however does not use pp ref counts, thus, support for get_page/put_page equivalent is needed for netmem. Support get_netmem/put_netmem. Check the type of the netmem before passing it to page or net_iov specific code to obtain a page ref equivalent. For dmabuf net_iovs, we obtain a ref on the underlying binding. This ensures the entire binding doesn't disappear until all the net_iovs have been put_netmem'ed. We do not need to track the refcount of individual dmabuf net_iovs as we don't allocate/free them from a pool similar to what the buddy allocator does for pages. This code is written to be extensible by other net_iov implementers. get_netmem/put_netmem will check the type of the netmem and route it to the correct helper: pages -> [get|put]_page() dmabuf net_iovs -> net_devmem_[get|put]_net_iov() new net_iovs -> new helpers Signed-off-by: Mina Almasry <[email protected]> Acked-by: Stanislav Fomichev <[email protected]> Link: https://patch.msgid.link/[email protected] Signed-off-by: Paolo Abeni <[email protected]>
