[RFC PATCH v3 02/12] net: page_pool: create hooks for custom page providers

From: Mina Almasry
Date: Sun Nov 05 2023 - 21:44:34 EST


From: Jakub Kicinski <kuba@xxxxxxxxxx>

The page providers which try to reuse the same pages will
need to hold onto the ref, even if page gets released from
the pool - as in releasing the page from the pp just transfers
the "ownership" reference from pp to the provider, and provider
will wait for other references to be gone before feeding this
page back into the pool.

This is implemented by Jakub in his RFC:
https://lore.kernel.org/netdev/f8270765-a27b-6ccf-33ea-cda097168d79@xxxxxxxxxx/T/

I take no credit for the idea or implementation; I only added minor
edits to make this workable with device memory TCP, and removed some
hacky test code. This is a critical dependency of device memory TCP
and thus I'm pulling it into this series to make it revewable and
mergable.
