Linux kernel source tree
Implement a page pool memory provider for io_uring to receieve in a zero copy fashion. For that, the provider allocates user pages wrapped around into struct net_iovs, that are stored in a previously registered struct net_iov_area. Unlike the traditional receive, that frees pages and returns them back to the page pool right after data was copied to the user, e.g. inside recv(2), we extend the lifetime until the user space confirms that it's done processing the data. That's done by taking a net_iov reference. When the user is done with the buffer, it must return it back to the kernel by posting an entry into the refill ring, which is usually polled off the io_uring memory provider callback in the page pool's netmem allocation path. There is also a separate set of per net_iov "user" references accounting whether a buffer is currently given to the user (including possible fragmentation).

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 reStructuredText 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.
